I love all the clothes in autumn and winter and personally, I find it much easier to dress when it’s a little chillier outside. Layering clothes comes natural to me, whereas in summer, I find myself just glaring into my wardrobe for ages before I finally stumble upon something to wear - and most of the time, my summer outfits are usually a lot less exciting than I plan for them to be.
But, it isn’t just fashion that we have to get giddy about - autumn beauty trends are easily just as exciting!
Our makeup bags transition and change dramatically from season to season and with such a huge alteration in climate and weather as summer turns into autumn, the products we rely on every day tends to take a huge turn.
I don’t know about you, but during the summer months, I like to keep my makeup as light and fresh as possible. When it’s warmer, I think it’s nice to give our skin a break and it feels good to have some time off from foundation in particular. Heavy creams and lotions are suddenly out and light serums are in. But, now we’re coming into autumn, the return of those somewhat heavier duty products is upon us and you know what? I can’t wait to give my makeup bag a gorgeous new autumn overhaul!
To give you all a little autumn makeup inspiration, for this blog post, I’ve decided to compile a list of my top 5 must-have products this AW18 season. I hope you enjoy!
Unleash your inner vixen with Charlotte Tilbury’s amazing ‘Bond Girl’ lipstick. A must-have this autumn, this gorgeous shade promises a chic, natural berry tone that promises to compliment and really enrich your pout on those chilly autumn mornings. Irresistible!
As autumn approaches, it’s time to take away that tinted moisturiser and bring back the thick, moisturising foundations. And for me, nothing quite compares to the glorious MAC Studio Fix. A beauty cult classic in its own right, this foundation promises to perfect the complexion, erasing imperfections and creating the illusion of effortlessly flawless skin. Love it!
If I’m completely honest, I rely on this lip liner all year round - not just in autumn. This shade is just super versatile and works great on any skin tone. It’s also effortlessly long-wearing and works great when over-lining the lips & creating the illusion of a fuller pout. In summer, I like to fill my lips in with Peach Blossom, but in autumn, I prefer MAC shades like Viva Glam II and Modesty - both of which are deeper in tone and slightly more dramatic.
4. Sephora Banana Setting Powder
I absolutely adore this product and it’s perfect for setting makeup in the autumn season! Not only is this product absolutely ideal for creating that amazing, mattified look and holding makeup in place on those cold, autumnal days, it also has a really nice yellow tone to it that helps warm up the appearance of skin. I love it!
Perfect for creating a warmer take on he classic smoky eye, this gorgeous eyes hadow palette from NYX is a must-have this autumn. Complete with 16 beautiful shades ranging from soft cream to deep reds and metallic browns, you’re sure to find a collection of colours you love. Personally, I can’t get enough of the stunning bronze shades! Just gorgeous!
I really hope you enjoyed this blog post and I can’t wait to share more with you all soon!
Lots of love,
