Fall is Upon Us!

Although the weather is still shakey, it is becoming more and more apparent that fall is upon us! To me, this means lots of scarves, boots, layers, and bold colors!

Don't get me wrong I wear bold makeup year round, however there are different colors and hues for different seasons. Fall is perfect for deep, rich colors and I could not be more excited.

I thought I'd share with you some of my favorite products for fall, and hopefully it'll inspire some awesome looks of your own!

Bold Lip:

The trend you will see me taking full advantage of in the fall is a bold lip. This may be my favorite thing about the change in season. One of my favorites is Urban Decay Confession. Now I believe this lipstick is no longer made, however it is still available through ebay which is actually where I got it a year or so ago. This color looks scary as all heck in the tube. It is a deep purple, almost black. However the color is very buildable. I use a lip brush and apply a light coating that way. By doing this a little product goes a very long way. I get compliments every time I wear it, and I think it is perfect for the colder months.

Heres a photo from last night of the product on. As you can see, it really does sheer out when you apply a light coating. I'm in love with this product I can't even put it into words.

Bold Nail:

Nothing is more appropriate in the fall then a deep nailpolish. Reds, purples, blues, you name it. All of these shades have deep, dark personalities that we can bring out in the fall. Some of my favorites are OPI Lincoln Park After Dark (An almost black purple shade), Essie Wicked ( A deep oxblood ), And OPI Suzi Skis in the pyrenees (A beautiful charcol). I highly recommend any of these for spicing up your look! Nothing finishes an outfit like a freshly painted set of nails!


Bold Scent:

Perfumes are another aspect of a beauty regime that change seasonally. For the fall I'd say my favorite scent is FlowerBomb by Viktor and Rolf. This scent is so dynamic. The level of florals and spices and just sheer perfection in this perfume is worth the hefty pricetag.
