Need some makeup inspo? Take a peek at your coffee.
Latte makeup, which is all about layering shades of brown, has risen to viral status over the summer. And its neutral, glowy, dimensional elements work just as well during ourtransition into fall. (Seriously, just think how dreamy latte makeup would look paired with fall’s “lipstick red” fashion trend.)
And we’re not the only ones who love this trend a-latte. Celebs like Hailey Bieber, Shay Mitchell, and Lori Harvey have all been seen sporting this coffee-inspired look.

To recap—latte makeup is chic, easy to do, and universally flattering. We’re in. So we tapped makeup artist,Leah Darcy, to share her top three latte makeup products.
Warm brown cream eyeshadow is essential to the latte makeup look. “I love using different textures to add dimension to the eyes,” Leah tells us. “This palette gives a wet, shimmery look that’s so pretty.”
Erewhon has been going off with celebrity smoothie collabs, and we’re here for it. From Hailey Bieber to Becky G, the beloved Los Angeles supermarket has been cranking out fun new drinks; and if you follow Erewhon or its many devotees on TikTok, it’s hard not to want to try them all.
Model and entrepreneur Miranda Kerr is the latest to drop a smoothie with the market, and she’s doing so to promote a new product in her skin-care line, Kora Organics. The smoothie is launching in tandem with the new Plant Stem Cell Retinol Alternative Moisturizer ($66); smooths wrinkles and firms skin while providing a boost of antioxidants and moisture-locking actives. A portion of the smoothie proceeds will go to the Organic Farming Research Foundation, which supports education and empowers the use of sustainable organic harvesting practices. (We love to see those smoothie dollars going to a good cause!)
Unfortunately, for those of us who don’t live in Los Angeles, Erewhon smoothies aren’t exactly accessible. And for those who do live in LA, the $17-$19 price tag makes them less accessible than most smoothies. Luckily, we secured the recipe (and made a few tweaks), so you can easily make this smoothie on your own.

While Erewhon smoothies are typically chock-full of niche superfoods or supplements (such as spirulina, collagen, lucuma, and more), the base ingredients are often easy to find at your local grocery store. While you may not be able to find every ingredient, you can still re-create each smoothie’s delicious flavor, and maybe even find a new favorite smoothie recipe. We already know the frozen antioxidant-rich Sambazon Açaí Superfruit Packs ($8), this recipe is already going to be a new freezer staple.
While the full ingredient list for this smoothie is quite fancy, the recipe, when boiled down (frozen down?) to the basics, is quite simple. Simply blend açaí plus frozen banana and blueberries with a little almond milk, coconut water, maple syrup, and vanilla collagen, like Copina Co. Vanilla Beauty Plant-Based Collagen Support Creamer ($30) — and there you have it.
To get the gorgeous Erewhon effect (we couldn’t resist), swirl the bottom half of the glass with coconut yogurt and E3Live Blue Majik ($45) spirulina extract, and top with a scoop of coconut cream and more spirulina sprinkles. Sweet sipping!
Smoothie: 1 frozen banana 1/2 cup frozen blueberries 100 grams frozen açaí 1/4 cup coconut water 1/4 cup almond milk 1 tablespoon maple syrup 1 serving (about 1 tablespoon) vanilla collagen creamer 1/4 cup coconut cream (optional)
DIRECTIONS
If you’re going for the optional swirl, spread the coconut yogurt around the bottom half of the glass and sprinkle with spirulina extract.
To make the smoothie, combine all the ingredients, in the listed order, in a blender and blend until smooth. (Note: This recipe was slightly too large for my personal blender, so I had to use a full-sized one.)
Pour the smoothie over the coconut swirl.
Top with a scoop of coconut cream and more spirulina extract, if desired. Enjoy!
Not only is the smoothie delicious and chock-full of premium ingredients that will make your skin glow, but all net proceeds will go to the Organic Farming Research Foundation in support of educating and empowering sustainable organic harvesting practices. We’ll drink to that!
An organic retinol alternative, the moisturizer is gentle enough to be used day and night and is formulated with antioxidant-rich Acai Stem Cells, rosehip oil, a natural peptide and ceramide blend, and a 5% active retinol alternative blend of bakuchiol and alfalfa.
Miranda Kerr’s KORA Glow Smoothie is available at all Erewhon locations and costs $19. It features a ton of nourishing and healthy ingredients that are inspired by the brand’s age-defying range including pure coconut, organic almond milk, vanilla plant-based collagen boost, blueberries, pitaya powder, and more.

If you’re going for the full Erewhon Instagram effect, we recommend freezing the scoop of coconut cream beforehand, so it stays intact. We know it sounds extra, but it saves you from flat coconut cream, which is what we ended up with the first time we made this delicious healthy smoothie.
Picture this: a serene evening by the fire, cradling a glass of your favorite red wine—utterly calming and romantic. This cozy, sultry sentiment is finding its way into beauty trends, notably with the emergence of red wine lips as a striking addition to your autumnal makeup repertoire. Whether complementing a latte-inspired look or infusing a burst of color into the widely adored clean girl makeup, red wine lips are an enduring trend of the season. The beauty of it lies in its versatility, making it a cherished choice for makeup enthusiasts.
WHAT IS ‘RED WINE’ MAKEUP? Now first things first, we’re not inviting you to splash some red vino on your face and call it a day. No, this beauty trend, while being similar to the ‘Tomato Girl’ Makeup look, incorporates the iconic elements of the drink—from that burgundy stain it gives your lips to the overall, sophisticated aesthetic red wine drinkers have. Red wine-inspired makeup should give off elegance and sophistication whilst still appearing sexy. The key to achieving this look is striking the perfect balance between full glam and a natural, dewy finish.

This is a reminder to highlight your lips in your fall beauty routine. Oftentimes, we merely slap some balm on and call it a day, but implementing a routine lip scrub goes a long way. Once your lips are prepped and primed, it’s time to go in with a lip liner. Opt for a dark maroon color that will enhance your natural shape. Use a lip brush or a clean finger to gently blend this line inwards for a softer effect. Now you’re ready to apply lipstick. The most important thing is to pick a shade that quite literally mimics a glass of your favorite merlot. We suggest YSL’s Burnt Suede or Anastasia Beverly Hills Satin Velvet Lipstick Blackberry.
With a light hand, dab this lipstick onto your lips, focusing on the centermost part for a more dimensional plump. From here, you are almost done. Finish off the red wine lips trend by topping with a juicy lip gloss. While a clear formula works, ared-based gloss will add that last touch of color that will make your lips pop.
Have you ever seen a more lip perfect shade for autumn?
Replying to @ambers778 The red wine makeup look 🖤 This is one of my favorites, the beauty is in the small details 😚 It is very much focused on the base, with the skin just the right amount of glowy. For everyone, this might mean something a little different but that is why we use the moonlight test 😉 Scattered glitter on a simple lid, and finally the strong lip liner for post wine and ricotta lips #maccosmetics#saiebeauty#hourglasscosmetics#youthtothepeople
Reply to @juliaakong hehe :3 🍇 watch me act up in europe w this shade on @L’Oréal Paris @lorealparisusa (shade: loreal colour riche divine wine 762) #berrylips
Tired of naming your seasonal makeup looks after foods? Suck it up, buttercup—or should I say butternut squash, because pumpkin spice latte-inspired makeup is trending so hard right now, it’s even getting airtime on Good Morning America. Frankly, it’s only right that on the 20th anniversary of the Starbucks PSL and in the year of the latte makeup craze, PSL makeup has made its way into our hearts (and onto our faces).
While we may not need to name these autumnal, monochromatic eyeshadow looks after the iconic fall beverage, doesn’t doing so make updating your makeup routine for fall all that much more fun? If you’re looking to romanticize your autumn makeup looks, read on to learn all about the pumpkin spice makeup trend that’s sweeping the internet.
In a shocking twist for 2023 makeup trends, the pumpkin spice makeup trend didn’t originate from a viral TikTok. Instead, the warm, autumnal look is being spotted by celebrities as the handiwork of professional makeup artists and recreated accordingly. Cara Delevingne recently sported the coveted cinnamon hues (which helped to make her blue eyes pop), and Selena Gomez’s look for the VMA’s included layers of sparkly browns and a neutral cheek and lip. The professional makeup artist behind nearly all of these gorgeous looks? That would be New York-based makeup artistHung Vanngo.
Of course, just like fashion trends, makeup trends are cyclical. If you’re noticing that many of these orange, red, and brown makeup looks are reminiscent of eye makeup that was popular in 2016 or perhaps even earlier, you wouldn’t be wrong. That said, makeup artists like Vanngo are elevating the look in 2023 with shimmery eyeshadows (rather than matte), glowy skin, and brows that are fluffy and minimal, all resulting in a look that’s eons better than it was seven years ago.

How to nail pumpkin spice makeup
If you’re sold on pumpkin spice makeup and want to recreate the celebrity-loved trend, doing so means leaning into warm brown and orange-leaning eyeshadows.
Advertisements
To start, apply your base makeup and include a cream bronzer or contour. (Making sure your skin has a warmth to it will help to avoid the warm tones of the eye washing out your complexion.) Next, apply a neutral beige or terracotta blush—rather than anything too pink—to help achieve a monochrome, autumnal effect.
In an interview on Good Morning America, makeup artist Neil Scibelliexplained that finding the right eyeshadow to use in your pumpkin spice makeup look is all about gravitating toward the warm, orangey hue that you feel works best for you. If true orange isn’t your shade, don’t sweat it—you can easily lean darker or lighter with an auburn base or a lighter champagne tone. Regardless of where you end up in terms of the actual shades themselves, the viral pumpkin spice eyeshadow looks that Vanngo has created all include an element of smokiness and a more liberal application. Buff out your eyeshadow along your crease with a fluffy eyeshadow brush, and use a precision brush to smoke some out along your lower lash line, too.
Vanngo has paired the smokey eyeshadow look with a variety of lipstick shades, from light pink on Karlie Kloss to a more neutralnude shade on Selena Gomez. Though the name “pumpkin spice makeup” doesn’t exactly imply versatility, Vanngo’s work shows that there is no “right” way to do a lip for a pumpkin spice look. Whether you’re tempted to test out this look due to 2016 makeup trend nostalgia or because you just can’t get enough of Vanngo’s work, here are a few products that can get you started.
