The expert: Jo Levy (jolevymakeup.com). The trend: Subtle gold shadow. Why: Levy loves a more minimalistic take on of-the-moment metallics via a dusting of gold glitter shadow. "It creates a gilded, glimmery effect that's perfect for evening." How to: Dampen your fingertip or a small makeup sponge before dipping it into OCC: Cosmetic Glitters in Gold ($15, occmakeup.com). Gently tap across your eyelids for the perfect amount of sparkle. The expert: Jill Glaser (makeupfirst.com). The trend: Lit-from-within skin. Why: This isn't the overly-highlighted, in-your- face shimmer of seasons past, but rather "a subdued radiance and luminosity that captures the essence of the 'no-makeup makeup' look," says Glaser. How to: Dab Becca Backlight Priming Filter ($38, sephora.com) across your complexion as the first step in your makeup routine. In addition to imparting a healthy glow, the sheer primer also boosts the staying power of products used afterward. The expert: Fredy Anaya ( fredymua.com). The trend: Berry lips. Why: "Fall is the perfect time for deep, rich berry lip colors," says Anaya. "They add warmth and life to your complexion." How to: Reach for Bobbi Brown Raisin ($27, shop.nordstrom. com), a universally flattering hue Anaya suggests for all skin tones. Keeping the rest of your makeup clean and minimal ensures your pout remains the focus. . STYLE BEAUT Y
