Beauty Trend #1: Double-Winged Cat Eye

We can't get enough of this double-winged cat eye at Chado Ralph Rucci. It's simple, and the dual wings make you stop to take a second glance. To get this look, line the lower and upper rims on your lid with charcoal eyeliner. Next, start in the middle of your upper lid and create a second wing slightly above the lid, going just a touch farther out than the first wing. Smudge for an edgier look.

Beauty Trend #2: Sparkle Smoky Eye

The eyes at DVF absolutely glowed, thanks to an emerald-green shimmer underneath the models' smoky eyes. Apply your favorite shimmer stick on your lower lash line over your smoky eye for a subtle pop. Make sure the liner goes from the corner of your eye all the way to the end.

Beauty Trend #3: Feathered Brows

Long gone are perfectly sculpted, pencil-thin eyebrows. Instead, this season urges you to go for a bolder brow with feathered ends, like the models at Preen. During your next tweeze job, brush the ends of your brows out toward your nose to get this look.

Beauty Trend #4: Plum Pouts

The verdict is in, and purple is the hot shade for fall. We saw it all over the runways for both fashion and beauty. Swap out your traditional red for a deeper, plum shade. For a middle-of-the-road option, go for berry.
