My 2018 Autumn Makeup Look
This year my makeup matches my top and I think that's pretty convenient.
In
the autumn I love creating new makeup looks. They often include warm
shades and lots of shimmer, because Christmas is getting closer and
closer and whenever November comes, I can't help starting to feel
festive... Yes, I'm one of those people. Sorry.
This
year, my makeup look matches the Miss Selfridge crop top I'm wearing:
it has some red, some green, and no, it wasn't actually inspired by a
Christmas tree. It just features some of my favourite products at the
moment, which I'm going to review below, so keep reading!
I've
been loving the Botanics skincare range by Boots recently. I am
currently using their day cream and its texture is soft, just thick
enough and moisturising without feeling heavy on the skin.
The
foundation I am wearing on these photos is the FaceFinity All Day
Flawless foundation by Max Factor. It was a firm favourite of mine a
few years ago and I recently just got it again - the coverage is
light to medium, and I love how natural it looks on the skin. The
finish is neither matte nor glowy, it just evens out the skin
beautifully.
On
my eyes, I have one of my favourite autumn/winter eyeshadows: Sahara
Dawn by H&M
Beauty,
a gorgeous deep burgundy shade. It is slightly shimmery and super
pigmented, so I only applied a little touch in the outer corners and
then blended it out. It's the only eyeshadow I have tried from H&M
Beauty, but if the rest of their range is as good, then it's
definitely worth trying out. I paired it with a gold glitter
eyeshadow from the French brand Nocibé,
and on my lower lash line I am wearing the wonderful Urban
Decay 24/7
eye pencil in the shade Stash. I find that khaki green really
compliments brown eyes and I've been wearing this pencil all autumn,
it stays put for hours and the formula is gorgeous. A touch
of NYX eyeliner
for a more dramatic look, mascara, and I'm good to go.
On
my lips I've got the beautiful NYX Liquid Suede, a semi-matte liquid lipstick which I wear all the time
as soon as the leaves start to turn red. It needs to be reapplied
after a few hours (the colour at the centre of the lips tends to fade
a little) but for the price tag, it's a really good product. I love
NYX as a brand and I've always enjoyed everything I've tried from
them.
In
the autumn I love deep burgundy shades. I'm also yet to wear my
purple MAC lipstick (Instigator) this year, and when I do I'll
probably post a picture on my Instagram - so make sure you're following
me there!
What are the makeup products you've been loving this autumn?
Lots of love,
Julia x

DeleteI love autumnal shades too, and the lipstick you are wearing is exceptionally beautiful. I haven´t tried anything from NYX ever, maybe this one would be a good product to start exploring the brand.
