Golden Girls
The gold dust from the Met Gala may have long settled down, but it’s inspired in its wake a makeup trend that’s been extended for the year’s grand finale. Whether in molten metallics or statement shimmers, gold makeup is brightening up the streets. From angel eyes (sparingly placed on the outer corners of lids), eyelids washed with golden shadow, or a sweep of highlights for gravity defying cheeks, drench yourself in precious metal this season.

Burberry Eye Color Silk
Sweep your lids with a luxurious shine with Burberry’s ultra blendable, silky eye shadow in rosewood. We recommend mixing it with water to intensify the color payo , and pairing it with rosy lips to unify the look. $29.50, bloomingdales.com

Tom Ford Shade and Illuminate Eye Kohl Duo
Give those gorgeous peepers a gilded finish with a dual ended Kohl eyeliner pencil in Soliel Blanc. Go subtle by simply micro lining the eyes, or “OTT” by highlighting top and bottom waterlines, accentuating with black rims for dramatic contrast. $44, tomford.com

Futuristic “Lang”uage
Tonal and monochromatic color schemes set an austere tone for Helmut Lang’s 2018 fall winter collection. Aptly themed “The Rough Terrain,” and inspired by satellite pictures of Mars, designers Michael and Nicole Colovos accentuated the brand’s chic minimalism with edgy, trans seasonal layering items. Signature pieces like lush fur sweaters, cocoon jackets in shearling, and laser cut shirts reinvigorated the Lang mission of producing sharply cut, futuristic silhouettes. The delightful spots of red through accessories and dresses infused the otherwise neutral collection with a surprising shot of vibrancy. helmutlang.com
