With the changing leaves comes a refreshing wave of beauty trends, and one that's captured our hearts is the "pumpkin spice" blush trend taking over our For You page.

The Trend

Just hearing the words "pumpkin spice" can whisk you away to a crisp fall morning: you're wrapped in a cozy infinity scarf, sipping on a PSL, and soaking in the vibrant autumn hues.

Pumpkin spice blush captures that essence—it’s warm, inviting, and distinctly autumnal. Alissa Holmes, the visionary behind sunset blush and chrome blush, is also the creative force behind pumpkin spice blush. Since she shared her pumpkin spice blush technique, it's been stuck in my mind.

This trend beautifully merges the sun-kissed effect of liquid bronzer with the warm glow of an orange-toned blush, creating a look that's both cozy and chic. And the best part? It harmonizes perfectly with a variety of fall lip colors.

How to Get the Look

In her TikTok video, Holmes begins by dotting the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand along her cheekbone. Next, she adds a touch of the Glossier Cloud Paint in the shade Dawn, placing it just above the bronzer—remember, a little goes a long way! Orange blush isn't a one-size-fits-all solution. For that sun-kissed, toasty glow, choose a burnt orange or terracotta shade. If you're after a more subtle wash of color, a peachy blush like the Tower 28 BeachPlease Blush in Rush Hour will work wonders.
