See the captivating Fall/Winter 2024 beauty trends sweeping the runways this season.
Fashion Month is in full swing. Amid the excitement of new fashion trends, it’s never too early to hop on the Fall/Winter 2024 beauty trends fresh off the runway. Some of the biggest beauty trends through the years have been sourced straight from the shows. Who could forget the viral porcelain doll look Pat McGrath created for the Maison Margiela Haute Couture show? While that look isn’t exactly ideal for an everyday makeup routine, it certainly calls attention to the fresh, extra-dewy glow beauty lovers have been perfecting for years.
With all the grandiose looks seen so far on the runways this season, it’s safe to say that these Fall/Winter 2024 beauty trends will be all over your feeds this year—but you’ve heard it here first. Some are old favorites and others a fresh take on existing trends, but the makeup artists behind fashion’s most recent runway shows have certainly unveiled an array of intriguing Pinterest-worthy ideas to recreate.
Thin Brows

One of the Fall/Winter 2024 beauty trends is the comeback of thin brows. So, whoever said the thin brows—most popular in the 1920s, then again in the ’90s—were done forever was seriously mistaken. Of course, full, thick brows aren’t going anywhere either, so don’t pull out the tweezers just yet. But, dare we say 2024 is the year of the thin brows?
Dramatic Smoky Eyes

Dare to be bold with a dramatic smoky-eye look. They may not be new, but among the Fall/Winter 2024 beauty trends were all sorts of dramatic iterations of the classic look—Y2K Paris Hilton would be pleased. And for those really looking to stand out, channel Helmut Lang’s grunge twist à la Jenny Humphrey.
Glass Skin

Korean beauty has been taking social media by storm for the past few years, and this trend extends to the runways. The “glass skin” complexion trend is all about that coveted, fresh dewy base that shows off a glow from within. For the Ludovic de Saint Sernin, Erdem, and Fendi shows, makeup artists skillfully achieved the Korean skincare-approved naturally luminous complexion, making it one of the hottest Fall/Winter 2024 beauty trends.
Subtle Cat-Eye

It’s time to say goodbye to the inner corner highlight trend. While the trick made your eyes pop, the subtle cat-eye is the new sexy Fall/Winter 2024 beauty trend to follow. It’s not just about using a light brown shade (or whichever color you’re feeling, really) for a winged eyeliner. It’s about elongating your eyes by lining your tear ducts for a seductive allure that simply enhances your natural features without heavy eye makeup.
Barely There, Fresh Base

Chiseled contour and strawberry girl blush isn’t for everyone. After all, there’s nothing quite like the feeling of (mostly) bare skin. That’s why at the Coach, Bally, and Burberry shows, the emphasis was on the natural beauty of the no-makeup makeup look.
Red Lip Focus

While pinks and nudes are flattering and more suitable for everyday wear, red lips give a sexier edge that no other color can rival. At the runways of Carolina Herrera, Ferrari, Richard Quinn, and Molly Goddard, bold red lips commanded attention, subtly enhanced by minimal makeup.
