It's really warm and bronzy and it was great for summer but I'm thinking I need a different look for fall. I am more warm toned- brown/hazel eyes and blonde hair that is more warm shades vs. cool.
I have an UD naked 1 that I would love to use.
I do plan to go to Sephora this week and hopefully they'll have some recs. I have a feeling this is a really basic question, but can one wear both warm and cool shades? I would like a warm trio and a cool trio for fall/winter. Would that require a different blush? This summer I've been using

I’ve basically worn a rose gold all summer, unless dressing up, when i would bust out UD Fireball and build an eye around that.
For fall, I’m planning to go more intentional looks with multiple colors. I love the options in Smashbox Cherry Smoke (and there’s something out that reminds me of it... could prob find it here in search bc I posted about it.)
I would like to find a good green to complement my brown eyes and reddish highlights.
I tend to shift my blush from Nars Orgasm to something with less shimmer and a bit more subdued.
And all the deep wine/purple/red.
This is assuming my lazy ass actually applies makeup.
Yeah I start going darker with fall makeup. Forest greens, wines, plumbs and some gold/bronze. Oranges for October lol. I also start wearing moisturizing foundations instead of tinted moisturizer. I usually switch to more plumby blushes with some shimmer or just matte. I go more cool toned over all too.
Ditto with going darker. My highlighters get more muted and I put away the lilac, etc tinted ones. My blushes get a little more natural instead of the hot pink or bright summery colored ones.
Foundation: From a glowy finish to a satin/natural finish. Blush: From coral-pinks to mauves. Eyeshadow: Not much change, but will do a darker color on a one-color day. I also won’t reach for anything super metallic or glittery. Lips: I’ll switch from pinks and nudes to mauves and berries. I don’t really change the formula at all since I prefer creamy or sheer lipsticks over anything else.
I go from tinted moisturizer type foundations to a little bit heavier coverage. I incorporate deeper and cooler eye colors and less bronze/gold. I haul out my cooler plummy blush and lip colors.
Now I want to do fall make up tomorrow, but it's going to be 90 and humid.
I go for more of the golden and warmer tones of fall (think falling leaves), but do start to incorporate a slightly darker blush (Hourglass Mood Exposure, for me) and definitely bring in more of the wines, berries, reds, etc for my lips. I love dark and dramatic lip colors, but they feel wrong in summer, to me.
