Hello people of the universe!
I am an autumn fan! (I realise that sounds lame, but bear with me!) I don't know if it's just me who gets that rush of excitement as the first leaves start to turn. (Nope. Just me? Okay.)
Nights get longer, days get colder and lipstick gets darker. Oh, I do love bit of autumn! - I know! I'm just too cool! - (Pun intended!)

I would be lying if I said I wasn't looking forward to crisp, early mornings, snuggling under blankets and general autumn-leaf-warm-orange-cold loveliness! (I realise that made no sense!)
Let's get started on my autumn edit! Here are 5 makeup items that I will be bringing into my 'daily routine' for the colder months!

1. Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum (£10.99)
My summer foundation staple is, of course, the Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation! I absolutely love this stuff, it's brightering, anti-fatigueing (pretty sure that's not a word!) and generally makes my skin look really nice. But I have a problem. I can't wear it in the winter! The foundation contains little tiny bits of glitter (which, credit where credit's due, do make you look more awake) but wear this in the winter and BAM you're a sparkling Edward Cullen! Not the best of looks. Sorry Edward.
This Bourjois healthy mix Serum is very light on the skin, doesn't make you look like a sparkly vampire and, if you're looking for a sheer/light coverage, is perfect for winter!

2. Rimmel Lasting Finish Mono Blush - Live Pink 50 (£3.99)
Oh, it's gorgeous! Oh, it's so beautiful! Autumn/winter is the best time to 'rock the blush' (Yep, I just said that! ) This blush is super cute and gives you the desired effect without looking too fake. Though don't go heavy handed! I like to put a bit of powder over top to calm it down. It has a good lasting power and overall is really girly and fresh.
3. Revlon Nail Enamel Bewitching (£6.49)
If like me, you are a bit scared of really dark colours in nails, this is a beautiful autumn/winter shade for you! It is so pretty! I love it so much! I've gone into some kind of nail polish love craze!
The formula is amazing and Revlon have come up with a really great range of colours. Keep coming up more of these beautiful colours Revlon, you'll burn a hole in my pocket!

4. Benefit They're Real Mascara!
They're Real is a false-lash effect mascara which is brilliant for people, like me, who CANNOT put false lashes on (Well, without glueing my eyes closed!) It doesn't clump, adds length (not a lot of volume though) and give the desired effect in one coat! If I had to find a fault, it would be in my bottom lashes. This mascara makes them look... twiggy!
But on the whole, it is an amazing mascara that is well worth the hype!

5. Rimmel Kate Moss in 110
I am scared of reds. There. I said it. I'm scared of wearing reds. So this colour is perfect for us red noobs. Is that the right term for it? I don't think so!
Whatever the term, that's what I am and I'm proud!
This is a beautiful pink-red-beautiful-glossy-amazingness (as you can see, I'm great at describing colours!) If you are brave enough, the Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick in 107 is a matte, deep red that is beautiful! (I've said beautiful too much now!)

I hope you found that helpful! I love all your sexy faces (comment where that's from) and I'll see you tomorrow!
