Ever since Sephora teamed up with Pantone, they've been going HAM in the color-prediction department. They just announced their fall face forecast, broken down by color: blood-red lips, purple eyelids, and black, black, black lashes.

Within those trends, they're broken down by level of intensity, including winged liner vs blurred liner, a smoky eye vs an iridescent eye, and something called a "diffused lip." (Ow?)

But let's get to the good part: the products. Sephora is down with the Madonna-inspired Make Up for Ever red lipstick, plus Givenchy's four-in-one mascara and Urban Decay's 'Smoked' eyeshadow palette. It's too bad Sephora can't do a collab with HSN, because basically the entire True Blood makeup line would fit in here. Bring on the vamps—and the vampires—for fall!
