As summer slides into fall, we’re doing our seasonal wardrobe switch-over and swapping out our flip-flops for leaf-kicking boots. But what about your makeup? Enter, toasty makeup.
Between the sun-kissed radiance of the summer months and the caramelized softness coming into the autumnal season, this is a trending look that plays on your warm shades. You instantly warm the complexion for a sophisticated back-to-school glow, but with a sultry vibe for those darker evenings. Think sheer skin tints and bronzy pink blush, careful contouring, and caramel-shaded lips. Already, everyone from Emily Ratajkowski to Hailey Bieber and Tyla look to be a fan of the aesthetic. So here’s how to warm up to this season’s biggest makeup trend.
What does ‘Toasty Makeup’ look like?
Over on TikTok, toasty makeup is this season’s glam du jour. Using a colorimetry of brown, copper and orange tones, this beauty makeover is inspired by the gourmand shades of a toasted bread and caramel. The “toasted” effect from this tonal uniformity instantly brings a soft warmth to the face, without appearing artificial.
The result? A harmony of velvety browns and dark roast honey tones. The complexion is light and dewy, with light bases that let the skin breathe—consider applying your base with your fingers to really melt it in. The bronzy effect comes from the added sculpting touches after.
On the cheekbones, a peach or apricot blush diffuses a feel of radiance, giving the illusion of a summer freshness, with a smattering of sunburn-style blush across the bridge of the nose. With a highlight applied on the peaks of the face, subtle touches of champagne or gold catch the light in all of the right places. On the eyes, shadows come in shades of caramel, bronze, and smoky brown, applied in a halo across the lid to create a vaporous color. (You can achieve that by applying product lightly with the tip of your finger, or a super soft brush swept delicately across the lid crease). And finally, lips come in nude shades of honey, terracotta, or soft rose, with a glossy finish.
The finished look should feel luminous, sensual, and sun-kissed. It captures the spirit of an infinite summer, even at the start of the new school year.
