current makeup and skincare favourites – fall 2018

With the change in seasons and the switch to cooler weather not only do clothes change, but my makeup and skincare changes a bit too.

Today I am going to go through some of my favourite products that I am currently loving. All these products are cruelty free and I have been using for a while now and have had a real chance to test them out.

I would love to know the products that you shift too as the weather gets cooler out and what you have been loving lately. Let me know in the comment section!

Skincare

• Makeup Remover – Ultrabland by Lush

Ever since I stopped using makeup wipes I have been using this creme makeup remover and a wash cloth and I have extremely impressed with how well it takes off all makeup including waterproof eyeliner, matte lipstick, and mascara. I just take a bit in my fingers and rub it onto my face and then wash it off with a damp washcloth. It is a little bit greasy but I follow it up with a micellar water.

• Serum – Grease Lightning by Lush

Around my time of the month I generally get a few pimples on my chin and this serum helps to keep them down and not get inflamed. I have been using this for years and will continue to use it for a long time.

• Eye Cream – Viper Venom Eye Fix

This is quite a new addition to my skincare routine but I have been enjoying it a lot. The cooling serum is very refreshing under the eyes and I love that is not a heavy cream.

• Body Moisturizer – Grapefruit by The Body Shop

The Body Shop moisturizers have been my favourite for a long time, but right now I am loving the grapefruit scent as it gives me one last scent of summer.

Makeup

• Foundation – Amazonian Clay Foundation by Tarte

Ever since I discovered this foundation right before my wedding I have been loving it. I find it the perfect amount of coverage but also is good for my oily skin. I apply it with a damp beauty sponge.

• Highlighter – Ambient Lighting Trio by Hourglass

There is just something about fall that makes me think of highlighter which has had me coming back to this highlighting trio. I personally love using all three at once which means it isn’t too glittery but still gives me that bit of glow.

• Eyeshadow – Ultimate Basics Palatte by Urban Decay

While I have been loving the glow in my highlighter I am wanting matte eyeshadow and I love the amount of shades in this eyeshadow palate that are all matte. I especially love the burnt orange shade in the fall.

• Lipstick – Multiple Dark Shades by Colourpop

If the beginning of fall makes me think of something it is the transition to darker lipstick shades and I love the colourpop matte liquid lipsticks. I have a range of darker shades in red and purplish colours and love bringing them out as the fall hits. Some people find them drying but I find that if I make sure my lips are scrubbed and moisturized before I apply it and it is not bad.

Those are the products that I am loving right now. What are you loving at the moment?
