I know, I know. Winter is just around the corner. Before it gets here, I want to share my favourite easy look for the fall. While vampiric red lips are certainly one of Autumn’s biggest trends, I can’t (as in, I don’t want to) rock that look on the daily. It would become predictable, thereby losing its drama. I like to keep it easy breezy most of the time. The look shown in this FOTD shows a lot of the warmth and romance that the colours of this season evoke for me. Warm pinks, burgundies and eggplant colours intermingle so well. AND I am absolutely in love with Make Up For Ever Aqua Creams!!! While I only own #17 shown in this look, I was highly impressed from the jump with the texture, colour payoff, blendability and staying power on my greasy eyelids. I must have them all now. If you’re in the UK, you can order these from Guru Makeup Emporium. stay tuned for the complete deets on look.
