2. Customizing Undertones, Shades & Proportions
Welcome to Part 2 of my breakdown on The Fall 2021 makeup trends pros are excited for.
Before you lock in your final formula or outfit pairing, here is how I adapt the tones and textures for each client.

Pin Look
Finding Your Most Flattering Version
For deeper skin tones, I lean into rich copper and bronze shadows.
While fairer clients get a peachy-champagne wash.
If you have cool undertones, swap the warm gold for a rose-gold shimmer.
It brightens without clashing.
Texture-wise, I love a cream shadow blended with a fingertip for that lived-in, effortless vibe.
For a more dramatic prom look, add a subtle winged liner and keep the lips nude to balance the spotlight.
✦ Which Finish Fits Your Vibe?
- Velvet Rose-Gold Glow: Effortless, soft-focus dimension that flatters every skin tone in daytime or candlelight.
- High-Impact Statement Finish: Crisp lines, rich pigment payoff, and bold contrast for evening events or street-style photos.
- Balanced Proportions: Keep one feature bold while letting the surrounding textures stay airy and breathable.
Always check how the finish and proportions look in both natural window light and warm indoor lighting so the result feels effortless from every angle.
