This year's color trend is reminiscent of last year's in that it's not actually a single color. However, the similarity ends there, as these metallic textures are the antithesis of "no-makeup" makeup. The heavy metal trend for fall 2015 sets itself apart from the usual shimmery shades by emphasizing a molten, mirror-like sheen, that to my eye looks like an updated version of '70s disco glam. Both nails and eyes shine in a variety of metallic hues – cool silver, yellow gold and deep bronze seem to be the most popular options, but rose gold is also having a moment.

What do you think of the fall 2015 metallics trend? I think it's really fun and festive, but is not kind to my crepey eyelids and less-than-perfect nails, so I will be doing a more subtle version.
