So who’s advice are you going to take, mine or Sephora’s? That’s what I figured…so here’s a list of some of Sephora’s top picks for this season. Don’t worry, they are all super chic and budget friendly. Take a look!
Soap & Glory: Super-Colour Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Plumping Gloss
$15 each
This collection of four glosses has that sultry feel as they add volume to your lips. Ingredients in the gloss create more circulation in the lips, creating that full look. Aside from its sex appeal, the collection includes clear and three light pinks with a soft vanilla flavor. The lip pumping gloss provides just enough pop for a night out but the perfect shades for everyday use.
Too Faced: Sun on the Run
$20
Summer may be over but no need to put the bronzer in hibernation. In fact, I need it more than ever this time of year as I try to hold on to as much color as I can muster. This two-piece set includes a two-toned bronzing powder and application brush. The blend of the two shades creates a “day at the beach” look. Great for these days we spend in the office, remembering those days in the sun. Don’t let me forget to mention the soft synthetic fiber used on the brush that makes the application super smooth!
Pro Lesson Palette: Smoky Eyes
$28
As the days get shorter and the nights get longer, evening makeup takes center stage. Time to return to the smoky eye! This palette provides step-by-step instructions on how to create six versions of the smoky eye. It doesn’t get any easier than the palette’s illustrations. The palette comes with six colors and black eyeliner to finish the look. Goodbye beach waves, hello vixen.
Lancome Paris: Hypnose Doll Lashes Mascara
$25
Speaking of night makeup. Nothing finishes an evening makeup look than black mascara. Lifting the eyes and making them pop, this mascara creates length and volume to the lashes. The cone-shaped brush provides a smooth application, separating the lashes and steering clear of that clumped look.
And my Sephora pick for Fall
Nails Inc. London: Special Effects Connaught 3D Glitter Nail Polish
$9.50
Blue is one of this season’s top colors and I want to enjoy it with as much glitz and glam as possible. This glitter nail polish with specs of purple is the perfect transition from summer to fall. Following the trends of extreme nail colors, this polish is loud while also conforming to the office or classroom. Just enough pop to remind you during the day that summer may be over but mani fun is never over!
KNOCK-OFF
