Cinnamon Girl Makeup Tutorial

By Viktoria @vioda.makeup · Updated

Cinnamon girl makeup is a warm-toned aesthetic that plays up golden-brown tones across eyes, cheeks, and lips for a cohesive, sun-kissed look. It's the evolved version of latte makeup with more spice and depth — think warm cinnamon eyeshadow, bronze-kissed skin, and a warm nude lip that ties everything together. The look works year-round but feels especially at home in fall and winter when warm tones match the mood.

Step-by-step

  1. 1

    Warm bronze base

    Step 1 of 6

    Apply a skin tint or light foundation and warm bronzer on cheekbones, temples, and jawline. Blend with a damp sponge for a sun-kissed glow.

  2. 2

    Cinnamon eyeshadow

    Step 2 of 6

    Sweep a warm cinnamon-brown matte shade across the lid and into the crease. Blend upward with a fluffy brush for a soft wash of color.

  3. 3

    Shimmer on center lid

    Step 3 of 6

    Pat a warm gold or copper shimmer on the center of the lid for dimension. Keep it concentrated in the middle and blend the edges.

  4. 4

    Warm blush

    Step 4 of 6

    Apply a peach or warm nude cream blush on the apples of the cheeks and blend upward. The warmth should complement the eye look.

  5. 5

    Cinnamon lip

    Step 5 of 6

    Line lips with a warm brown-nude liner, fill in, and top with a nude-caramel gloss or a warm tinted lip balm.

  6. 6

    Mascara and brows

    Step 6 of 6Almost done!

    Curl lashes, apply mascara, and brush brows upward with a tinted gel. Keep everything warm and cohesive.
