Photos: Getty Images As I watched the shows during Fashion Week last February, giving us a taste of what to expect this fall, something distinctively stood out to me. I&amp;#039;m used to the seemingly makeup-free (but definitely not), radiant, fresh face that has become the look de rigueur, but this season, it felt different. It wasn&amp;#039;t just dewy skin and highlighted cheeks that gave the models their enviable, youthful glow\u2014it was something more. I kept noticing it: Girls with freckles backstage and on the runway, most notably, model of the moment Magdalena Jasek.

A number of makeup artists, including Stila&amp;#039;s Global Executive Director of Creative Artistry Sarah Lucero, actually added freckles as part of their look. For Skingraft (pictured below), she drew freckles on all the female and male models.  &amp;quot;Freckles instantly make the complexion look fresh, as if you have no foundation on,&amp;quot; explains Lucero. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a beauty trick I use more often than you may think. If your foundation or powder looks cake-y, pop a few freckles on top. It will fool everyone into thinking you just have gorgeous, perfect skin, and that you&amp;#039;re not wearing much makeup.&amp;quot; Related: 10 Elle.com Editors Share Their Favorite Nail Polishes For Fall Though freckles were once something many women tried to cover up, they can actually be used to hide your age when done right. &amp;quot;When women hit their 30s, they start to see sun pigment spots that can look like freckles. To make that work for you, you can boost it up with a few more,&amp;quot; suggests Lucero.  I have always been drawn to freckles and envious of women like Kate Moss, Lucy Liu, and Olivia Munn, whose skin is so adorably speckled. So naturally, I had to try this out for myself. You may assume this is done with eyeliner, but at Lucero&amp;#039;s suggestion, I created my freckles with a brow product. The Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Brow Color works wonders for brushing up and filling in eyebrows, but can also be used on the skin. The pen feels like it has a normal felt tip, but in fact, it&amp;#039;s a cluster of very fine, thin hairs pointed together. This helps get that effortlessly freckled look, without seeming like you&amp;#039;re channeling Pippi Longstocking.  Choose a product that&amp;#039;s a lighter hue than your hair (I used Stila&amp;#039;s light shade). Lucero even suggests using two colors to make it look more natural. Light and medium brown work on those with fair to medium skin and hair, and medium and dark brown look best on warmer skin tones. Simply tap the pen around your face, almost bouncing it across your nose and cheeks, with a few specks on your eyelids. The trick is to not make the spots too perfect\u2014if they are oddly shaped they will look more natural. It&amp;#039;s as easy as that.

It didn&amp;#039;t magically get rid of any dark circles or those pesky lines forming on my brow, but it gave me a look reminiscent of the days when I had the freedom to spend all of August hanging out at the local pool\u2014without the unwanted sun damage\u2014instead of in an office. It&amp;#039;s a playful and fun look, plus a super simple and easy way to hold on to that feeling of summer a little longer as we head into fall. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
