My Favorite Fall Beauty Products

fall makeup

If you haven’t already, this is the time of year to begin switching out your makeup for the new season.  Every September, I start to veer away from bright pink & coral tones and incorporate more nude, brown & burgundy hues.  Products that I typically don’t change this time of year are my eyeliner, brow pencil & mascara (I alternate between this one & this one).  But, everything else is swapped out for the remainder of the year.

I’ve been on a mission to revamp my own beauty cabinet, so I thought I’d share with you a few of my old stand-bys that I’m constantly repurchasing, along with some new favorites.  Now is a great time to stock up because Target has 15% off almost their entire beauty department this week (when you use Circle) & I found that all the Essie & OPI polishes at Kohl’s are on sale too!

NAILS
Essie Bed Rock & Roll
A deep red-toned brown creme (see on nails here)

Sally Hansen Buff And Tumble
A universally flattering true nude (see on nails here)

Nails Inc. Keep It Tonal Polish Set
I love all these neutral colors – wear them separately or create an ombre mani by painting a different shade on each nail (see on nails here)

Essie Bordeaux
A deep red wine creme (see on nails here)

OPI Italian A Little Rusty
A rich chestnut brown-meets-orange (see on nails here)

LIPS
L’Oreal Paris Rouge Signature Lip Stain (I Empower)
I have such a hard time finding nude lip colors that don’t wash me out or make me look like a corpse & this one is the perfect warm pinkish nude.

Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Liquid Lipstick (Caramel Collector)
This is my fourth color of this lipstick & it’s currently my favorite formula to wear because it stays put all day long – I literally have to scrub it off at night!  This shade is a warm terracotta, but my other favorites are Amazonian, Lover & Self Starter.

L’Oreal Paris Colour Riche Satin Lipstick (Cinnamon Toast)
While this doesn’t have the staying power of a matte stain formula, I love how moisturizing it is on my lips.  This color is a deep reddish brown.  I also own this lipstick in Fairest Nude & Toasted Almond (both great everyday neutrals).

EYES
e.l.f. Pumpkin Pie // e.l.f. Need It Nude // e.l.f. Cream & Sugar
If you’re someone who doesn’t do an elaborate eye look every day, I honestly don’t think you need to spend a fortune on an expensive palette, when you’ll most likely only use a few of the shadows.  I recently bought one of these for my daughter and decided to test it out myself because I wanted to see how it performed compared to my more expensive brands.  I was honestly shocked!  The pigmentation & blendability is just as good + I had zero fallout onto my cheekbones while applying – such a great deal for the price!

MORE FAVORITES
NYX Contouring Wonder Stick (Universal)
I don’t do contouring every day, but even when I do, I want it to be as quick & simple as possible.  This stick makes it a cinch because the creamy formula glides on in one stroke and blends seamlessly.  I apply this after my foundation & setting powder & I use my finger rather than a brush to blend, because I feel like it gives me more control.

Sonia Kashuk Makeup Bag
The zipper broke on the small makeup pouch I usually keep in my purse, so I bought this one as a replacement.  Not only do I love the color & the texture of it, but it’s the perfect size for storing my cosmetics for on-the-go touch-ups.

Beauty Kate Oval Makeup Brush Set
After seeing so many beauty tutorials using this type of brush, I decided to buy my own to try.  I settled on this affordable version so I can see if I like this style before buying a more expensive brand.  What I like is that the fibers are really densely packed into the brush, so it picks up more products & blends better than a traditional brush.  The small ones are a total game-changer for applying concealer because they get right into the corners around your eyes!  Not sure how these will hold up over time, but I have been pleasantly surprised by the quality so far (I’ve only washed them once).

Wet ‘N Wild Mega Glow Blushlighter (Flash Me)
This is another great budget buy & if you use Circle, you can get an extra 15% off!  I just think this is the prettiest color combo for cheeks & I love that it combines the highlighter & blush together.  I prefer to use a more mauvey blush & golden highlighter this time of year (versus the pink blush & icy highlight I use in the summer).  This formula gives you a sheer wash of color with a slight shimmer that’s not glittery at all.
