It isn’t the easiest color to wear, but for Fall I am really into makeup with purple undertones. Violets, lavenders, plums… or even Ruby and Wine. There are lots of options.
These vintage makeup advertisements all feature makeup with a purple undertone. Purple eyeshadows, wine lipsticks, and lavender toned blush. I hope these ads give you a little inspiration for your own vintage makeup this Fall.

Great color choice, purple is so rich and dreamy for fall 🙂
I don’t have enough purple in my life, I’ve just decided!

I love purple but I’m not sure how to put it on my face without making it look like my boyfriend beat me. I occasionally wear a dark plum eyeshadow that mostly looks brown…?
I am so glad that I found your blog! I am joining a unit of re-enactors from WW2 USO Stateside Operations, and we must dress and style our hair and makeup appropriately for the era. I will be spending most of my day reading your blog! LOL

Yes purple is a gorgeous fall and winter hue! I too love to do all purple. Still looking for a great purple lipstick!
