Homecoming is on the horizon! Are you ready to laugh until your cheeks ache with your besties and dance the night away with that cutie from Social Studies? Homecoming is the one dance during the school year where literally everyone can attend. So why not turn some heads with the swipe of the perfect lipstick or a killer smokey eye?

Let’s make your fall formal makeup double tap-worthy, so all your friends know you are the queen of #MakeupGoals.

Neon Wings

Double cat eye liner is already on trend to be very popular this fall! Why not try rocking it with neon hues at homecoming and stand out from the sea of basic winged liner?

Swipe a pop of color over your classic black wing, and finish with some major falsies (like Upper Lashes 40).

Au Natural

Going au natural is a great idea if your dress is already the statement piece of the night!

Get your glow on with a natural looking contour, full brows, and a major highlight. You’ll be photo-ready and glam without taking attention away from your dress.

I recommend using an eyebrow pencil, so you get fuller more natural brows without any smudges. Lit Like a Boss is the perfect glitzy highlighter that you need to dazzle. Make sure you apply it to the high-points of your face where the light catches most!

A fresh face and a wine colored lip are a match made in makeup heaven. You’ll definitely be catching the eye of the hottie on the varsity football team all night.

Bronze Smoke Show

Become a bronze goddess for homecoming by adding copper tones to your whole makeup look.

Start with a copper smokey eye by using Bon Vivant. It’s mega-pigmented! Create a sultry blend with a darker eyeshadow like Cafe Au Lait. Smudge some brown liner on your upper lashline and then highlight your brow arches with a beige shade. Make sure you add some Fiji bronzer to your contouring routine. Finish this look with some falsies, like 747-S.

These metallic tones paired with a vibrant red lip will wow the crowd when you receive the crown for Homecoming Queen.

Girl Next Door

Girl Next Door

Let’s play up the girl next door look with wide-eye sultry vibes. Dab your fave silver cream shadow onto your lids and line your upper and lower lash lines with a lilac/plum or light blue/navy liner.

Add a soft coral glow to your cheeks with Coral Mermaid blush and finish with a pinkish-nude gloss like Love Hydra-Gloss or a berry colored lipstick like Foxy Boss.

This simple makeup look will have your besties screaming, “YASSS, QUEEN,” as your dream guy asks you to dance.

Red Carpet Glam

Red Carpet Glam

If you’re looking for a timeless, red carpet-esque, makeup look to rock at Homecoming this year, this is the one for you.

We’re going to be keeping it classic with a jet black cat eye, simple lashes, and a red lip that will last way past midnight.

For this look, you’ll want to create a porcelain matte finish on your eyes with a subtle darker blend in your crease. Use In The Buff paired with Cafe Au Lait to create a makeup look similar to the image above.

Finish with a statement red lip like Bosso Makeup’s Liquid Lip Wicked Boss. HOT!

Metallic Eyes

Feeling edgy and fierce? Then you better own it, girl!

Go dark with metallic eyes paired with a smudgy black liner. Make this look POP with a mega-glossy red liquid lipstick like Bitchy Boss.

That bad boy who makes your heart skip a beat won’t be able to take his eyes off you after you own your Sandy from Grease moment. You’re the one that I want… ooh, ooh, ooh, honey!


Are you super excited for homecoming? I remember having butterflies in my stomach as I got ready to go. Make sure you have tons of fun, make memories, and don’t be afraid to ask the cutie you’re crushing on to dance! You are a force to be reckoned with, babe!
