Velvet Skin This fall, the focus is shifting from dewy radiance to a more plush, velvet-like complexion. Velvet skin is all about a softly matte finish that looks smooth, touchable, and natural. Think of velvet skin as a balance between glow and polish: skin that looks refined and perfected but still alive. The trend ties into the season’s emphasis on texture, mirroring the tactile richness of autumn fabrics like suede and velvet. You can achieve velvet skin with foundation or powder (or both) depending on what your skin needs and the level of coverage you want. #LTKNYFW
