FALL MAKEUP HAUL

MAC Lip Pencil in "Whirl" // MAC Love Me Lipstick in "Daddy's Girl" // FENTY Gloss Bomb in FU$$Y // MAC Prep + Prime Highlighter in "Radiant Rose" // Hourglass Ambient Soft Glow Foundation 

Do you ever feel like you just need to change up your entire look? That's where I've been lately. Fall has given me the perfect excuse to do a little shopping so I grabbed a few new beauty items to refresh with. I've been feeling underwhelmed with my foundation/complexion situation lately so I grabbed the new Hourglass Ambient Soft Glow Foundation. I really love their Vanish Stick so I'm hoping this one will be great too. 

A tried and true repurchase is the MAC Prep + Prime Highlighter in "Radiant Rose." Hands down, THE best under-eye brighter if your skin tone is on the lighter side like mine. It has a peachiness that counteracts dark circles and brightens everything up so well. I also love that the consistency is really light + easy to blend. Some concealers can be too thick + cakey under the eye but this is perfect. 

The last order of business is some lip service. I'll be the first to admit that most days, I don't fool with wearing lip products. I'm a balm girl through and through but I kind of want to be a liner/stick/gloss kinda gal, too. I saw the prettiest lip combo on a Tik-Toker (I wish I remembered her name) which was MAC's Whirl Liner + Daddy's Girl Lipstick. I grabbed both of those + the FENTY Gloss Bomb in "FU$$Y" to put on top.

WHAT I WANT | FALL BEAUTY

I love that infamous quote by Fitzgerald... "Life starts all over when it gets crisp in the Fall." In many ways the fall signals the end of a lot of things-- summer, vacations, warm weather-- but to me it's always felt like a new beginning. A fresh start, the chance to be a better or new version of you. Constantly changing + evolving is good for your soul! One simple and easy way I like to do this is with my beauty routine. I like to give my skin + hair a little extra TLC and love incorporating warm, sultry tones that are both bold and dramatic. I've been on the hunt for some new fall beauty items + these are the ones I have my eye on! 

NEW FALL BEAUTY PICKS

+ NUDESTIX Holiday Mini Glow Highlighter & Eye Set - Loving this little mini set from NUDESTIX! It comes with a mini highlighter and eye stick, both the perfect shades to brighten things up.

+ NARS Quad Eyeshadow Palette - How gorgeous are the colors in this new NARS palette? They’re the perfect tones for a spicy, fun look. I like the mix of wearable colors for daytime with the bolder shades for extra glam or nighttime.

+ BYREDO Eyeliner - With BYREDO you know she’s a boujee one. I just found out they now sell cosmetics so I’m intrigued on how they perform? I tend to go for a more dramatic eye in the fall with winged liner so their new liquid liner has piqued by curiosity. I’m not convinced that it will justify the price tag but we shall see.

+ Nopalera Cactus Flower Exfoliant - This one also looks promising. It’s a body scrub which is especially great in the cooler months. The brand reminds me of a higher end Burt’s Bees. It's made from cactus and oils to provide gentle exfoliation which I love the idea of. 

+ Olaplex Healthy Hair Essentials Set - I’ve been debating on Olaplex for awhile... have you tried any of their products? The reviews are amazing but I usually try to purchase scalp specific products. Their new mini holiday set is a great value and comes with four of their bestselling products. It looks like a great set to try everything out so I'm thinking of grabbing one before they sell out.

I've been in a spendy mood so I think it's time for a little beauty haul soon! Which would you buy?
