Let's start with the nails; These two Essie polishes are my obsession! The first lighter one is Ballet Slippers. Perhaps one of the most well known Essie colors, this is definitely a favorite of mine. I love this color because it is opaque and the perfect balance between a nude and baby pink. The simplicity of it ties every color together. It is a great way to stay professional because it is such a neutral color, so it's perfect for interviews or work. The more pink nail polish is Essie's Vanity Fairest and I am in love with this color. This baby pink color has a hint of shimmer to give a flirty vibe and is not as opaque as Ballet Slippers so it is great for complimenting outfits rather than being part of of the outfit. Both colors are perfect for fall because rather than being dark and vampy (which is still amazing) these are really great basics that will come in handy at any time during the season.
Another cult favorite is the MAC blush in the color Plum Foolery. As you can tell from the title, it is a plum colored blush that is my go to for fall. The plum base is complimented with a golden shimmer that simply screams autumn. I love this because it is such a great way to warm up your face and hide that cold weather pasty color. All my friends love to borrow this color from me and from this, I've seen that it looks amazing on so many skin tones. This versatile blush is a great staple and a gorgeous color overall. What more could a girl want?!
But of course, what would I do without Benetint? This cheek and lip stain is hands down my favorite stain I've come by. When I'm not in the mood for a lip gloss or lipstick, I just dab a little onto my lips and it creates the perfect pink color, making it look like my lips are naturally flushed. And for your cheeks, if you want a matte, simple look, this is great for that windblown cheek flush color that every girl lusts after.
And last, but certainly not least is MAC's dazzlegloss in Date Night. First of all, this lipgloss actually smells like marshmallows so that is reason enough to be a fall fave. Other than that, this is one of the most unique colors I have a come across; It has a sort of raspberry base which is perfect for seasonal changes but it is accented with blue, yes blue, shimmer in it. I didn't think I would wear this a ton because of the blue, but I find that it is very subtle in such a pretty way. Go try it out for yourself and see what you think!
These are just a couple of my autumn favorites, and I can't wait to try out more!
