Fall Beauty Wishlist

Hello angel faces :)

 I don't make it a habit of buying new things very often (responsible spending is key) so I like to get everything in one shopping trip.  Today I bring you the fall beauty items that I foresee myself purchasing within the near future. Hope you enjoy.  

1.  Eau de Lune-Laura Mercier

I just absolutely love this scent.  It is so light and floral.  I've heard people say that it fades quickly but that has never been the case with me.  It reminds me of summer and spring, which is probably why I adore it.  

2.  Hang Up (Lipcolor)-MAC

I have never been one for deep hues but recently I am obsessed with them.  They scream sophistication and class. Especially now that fall is here and the leaves are changing.  It fits right into the color scheme of this 'cozy-up' weather. 

3. Maybelline Great Lash Mascara in Royal Blue

I did a photo shoot once and the makeup artist outfitted me with the prettiest royal blue mascara that I had ever seen.  Now I am hooked.  I have to have this.

4.  All Natural Shea Butter

I am a big fan of all-natural products.  Not only is shea butter good for the skin but it is also good for the hair.  

5.  Avanti's Silicon Mix Conditioner

My former hairdresser used this in my hair and would never tell me what is was when I asked about it...I guess it was her secret.  Well after much snooping (don't judge) I figured out what it was.  This stuff is amazing.  

Thanks for reading.

I'm Back!

First I'd like to apologize for neglecting my blogging duties for so long (it's been almost 2 weeks since my last post).  Things became a little too overwhelming for me and so I took some time to gather myself and my thoughts.  Okay the true story is that I sat in front of my computer this morning and told myself either you get it together or you let it go...I decided to get it together.  Big girls cry but they don't give up.   So here I am.   I have a lot of exciting things to share and there's nothing more in this world that I'd like better than sharing them with you all.  So with that being said here's what I have in store....

Falling For Fall

We are in the last days of Summer and I am finally accepting that fact.  Summer is my favorite season and I hate to see it go but with the fall season comes....fall fashion and beauty.  I love switching my fashion and beauty routine, now that is one thing that I can appreciate.  So without further ado here are the fall beauty trends that I am dying to try.

1.  Va-Va Volume

Yep, you heard right.  The same hairstyles that I dreaded when I was younger are now trending.  Middle parts, huge curls, and big waves are back in.  The bigger the hair the better (even the ponytails are big).  

2.  Bold Nails

This fall season says goodbye to neutrals and hello to bold.  No matter if it's dark, bright, metallic or glittery just make sure it's eye-catching.  

3.  Cat-Eye Makeup

To be honest some runway makeup looks are much too theatrical and whimisical for everyday wear.  However, this is on look that can be worn without odd looks from onlookers.  

4.  Matte Skin

During the warmer seasons we all want that dewy glow.  Well, kiss that goodbye because matte is now in. Take out the powder ladies velvety smooth isn't just for pin ups anymore.

5.  Textured Lips

This season isn't so much about colors as it is about texture.  From flat matte to extreme gloss it seems that just about any color will do just as long as the textures are extreme.  I personally prefer deeper colors but don't be surprised if you catch me with a pink or a red lip.  

So as much as it pains me to pack away my warm weather items I am truly excited about what the fall season has to bring.  What are some of the things that you're looking forward to this fall season?
