Autumn Must Have Beauty Bits



I've decided to do my first favorites post. But, instead of doing at the end of a month like most beauty bloggers and you-tubers, I'm just going talk about my general favorites for fall this year.

Bronzer Galore
For some odd reason, I've been loving using a bronzer over blusher at the moment. Now, this is really quite weird seeing as I am VERY fair skinned. However, I have been loving the way a bronzer adds a subtle glow. When applied sparingly, it can look natural, warm and dewy, perfect for the breezy, warm autumn days!
The bronzers I've really been enjoying are...

Physicians Formula
Shimmer Strips 
Peachy Glow Bronzer
(Great dupe for Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick)
Esteé Lauder
Soft Matte Bronzer
"Bronze Goddess"





St.Ives New Face Wash
If you've read my older post "Overnight Face Essentials", you'll know that I absolutely LOVE the St.Ives Blemish and Blackhead Clearing, Apricot Scrub. But, since I had recently run out of that :(, I decided to opt for something different this time. My skin has been quite good lately (surprisingly) so it wasn't very scary to get a face wash that's not directed towards "problem skin". On the contrary, I actually find this scrub to work wonders for my problem areas, as well as brightening dull skin and evening out skin tone. Talk about a triple threat! PLUS, it is completely affordable for everyone. I would recommend this to not only teenagers but for people of all ages and genders. 

Pumpkin Bubble Bar
This year, I've really been enjoying having baths. Almost every weekend I run myself a lovely bath and do a face mask or maybe even a hair mask. But my favorite thing when it comes to baths is BUBBLES. Of course, I love everything from lush, it isn't only great quality but it smells incredible and is all organic and cruelty free. So, when I last went into lush, I obviously had to get the adorable, festive, pumpkin bubble bar. If you don't already know, a bubble bar is meant to crumble under the running water, I like to do it when my bath is around 1/4 full. From there your bath will turn a wonderful shade of pastel orange, have tons of fluffy bubbles and smell of earthy, pumpkin spice with a hint of chai.



Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller
As the weather gets colder, our under eyes start to droop, puff and darken (even more then usual). I have unfortunately inherited extremely dark under eye circles :(. Although there is no known way to rid yourself of them completely, there are some things you can do to help. Lately I have been absolutely loving the Garnier eye roller. It truly helps to de-puff your under eyes after a long night's sleep. Your eyes instantly look less puffy and more healthy and awake!




Lancôme Visionnaire Advanced Skin Corrector
I got this quite some time ago. And, until recently, I completely forgot that I had it. Once I rediscovered it, I became absolutely obsessed. I'm pretty sure it's similar to a serum that you put on your face before your moisturizer, so that's what I've been doing with it. But I may be completely wrong on that. After only using it morning and night for 2 days, I already saw a dramatic difference in my skin's appearance. My skin looks more radiant and healthy and my pores have been noticeably diminished. I know this product is perhaps aimed towards an older demographic, but it's never to early to start preventing wrinkles and dark spots. All in all, this product it absolutely amazing so get your hands on it if you can (I simply got the sample size because the full sizes are quite expensive and you never need to use very much product at a time anyway).


Cream Shadow 
And last but not least, since it's getting colder I have been loving the dewy, glowing finish of a good cream eye shadow. Not only do they take away the hassle of putting on a primer (because who's got time for that in the morning?) but they look absolutely stunning. They're very easy to apply with either a brush or your finger, and it takes hardly any time. Plus, they last literally all day long. So, on that note, here are my three favorite cream eye shadows at the moment.


From Left to Right

Benfit
Cream Eye Shadow
"My Two Cents"

MAYBELLINE New York
Colour Tattoo 24 Hour
"30, Pomegranate Punch"

M.A.C
Pro Longwear Paint Pot
"Groundwork"




Hope your having a wonderful autumn so far!

Thanks for reading and have a great day!
