Favorite Fall Blushes

Hi! How was your weekend?
Today I'm sharing my favorite blushes for Fall. I tend to wear darker blushes, lip colors, and eye makeup in Fall and Winter time. Some of these blushes have been long time favorites, and some are newer to my collection. 



I've talked about this Morphe 9N Blush Palette quite a bit recently, so I won't ramble on about it. I love the neutral tons and some of the darker shades are great for Fall. Check my review here for more photos and swatches!

I'm a huge fan of Nars cheek products. Sin (left) and Almeria (right) have been two of my favorite blushes during the colder months for a few years. Sin is a berry berry/plum tone, and Almeria is a kind of burnt, reddish, plum tone. It's a hard one to describe, and it's hard to capture the true color of it. 

I also really love Hourglass Mood Exposure (left) and Makeup Revolution blush in Nude for fall time. Mood Exposure is looks more plum in the pan but it comes off as more of a dusty rose shade. Makeup Revolution Nude is a perfect everyday mauve.


Most of these blushes are great for everyday and you can wear all year around too. I'm a huge fan of all matte looks in the Fall too, but if I want a tiny bit of shimmer, then Sin and Mood Exposure are perfect. 

What are your favorite Fall blushes?

Favorite Fall Blushes

You all know that I LOVE Fall. It's my favorite season and I really just wish it would stay Fall all year around. I love everything about it, and Fall makeup is no exception. 

When it comes to makeup, I think the most thing I change up through the seasons is my blushes and lipsticks. I go from peaches and pinks to berry tones. Today I have my 3 favorite and most worn blushes for this time of the year. I've loved all of these for a long time and I'm excited to wear them again. 

I have two Nars blushes and one blush from Hourglass. Nars are my all time favorite blushes and I have two that are perfect for Fall. The Hourglass one is pretty nuetral so it can be worn all year, but it does have a mauve/berry tone to it so I love it for this season. 

Here's pictures with (bottom) and without (top) a flash. From left to right we have Hourglass Mood Exposure, Nars Sin, and Nars Almeria. I do apologize that I think  Almeria was a limited edition shade, so I'm not sure if you can still get it. 

Mood Exposure- This actually looks like it would be darker in the pan than it really is. It's a great neutral color with a hint or mauve/berry like I said before. It blends in to the skin super nice, and has a pretty natural glow to it. 

Sin- I have loved this blush for years. I've probably had this a good 3 years or so and I have hit pan on it. It's a pretty Berry color that has a slight shimmer to it. The shimmer isn't that noticeable when it's on your cheeks but gives a nice glow like the hourglass one does. 

Almeria- This blush is super hard to capture to true color of. The first picture without the flash makes it look orange, but it's more of a burnt reddish color like the swatch. This one is matte it's just a gorgoues and unique color. I don't own anything else like this!

Favorite Fall Makeup and Beauty Products!

Hello Everyone! This has been a post that I have been meaning to do for about a month now! I've mentioned before that I really love the fall time and I have been obsessed with a lot of fall colored makeup products that I wanted to share here on my blog. I'm going to be showing my favorite fall blushes, eye shadows and nail polishes!

Blushes 

In the summer I tend to wear more coral and brighter pink colors, so in the Fall I go for more muted pinks, nudes and berry colors.
The first blush on the top is Nars Sin and it's a super pretty berry/dark plum color. The second blush on the top is by Mac called Pink Cult. This is a pretty nude/pink dusty rose color. The third blush (bottom) is Tarte Amazonion Clay Blush is Exposed. This is probably my most used blush as you can see I hit pan on it. It's a pretty nude color that looks great with just about anything. The last blush that I'm showing is Benefit's Rockateur Blush. This one is another nude/neutral color that's a pretty rose gold color. 


The Tarte blush didn't swatch very well, but it shows up really nice when you apply it to your cheeks.

Eye Shadow

I have been loving any eyeshadows that are red/orange or plum tones. 


These are two palettes that I have been using for Fall colors. The first one is the Wet n Wild Comfort Zone palette. This has super pretty red and orange colors on one side and green and taupes on the other side. I love all of these colors and you can do so many different looks with them. The second platte is the Nyx Romance Palette. This one also has a lot of pretty red/orange colors that I love. 

Some more eye shadows I have been using a lot are these three single eyeshadows. The first one is the L'Oreal Infallible eyeshadow in the color Smoldering Plum. I'm so obsessed with this one it's not even funny. The second one is the Nyx eyeshadow in the color Morocco. This is also a really pretty deep purple/plum color. The third one is a Maybelline Color Tattoo in the color Pomegranate Punk. This is a cream eyeshadow/base that is super pretty for a more dark pinkish/red look. 

Nail Polish 

From left to right- OPI Linkin Park After Dark, OPI Every Month is Octoberfest, OPI Midnight in Moscow, Morgan Taylor Birthday Suit, and Essie Merino Cool. 
Linkin Park After Dark has been a favorite of mine for years. It's a pretty dark, dark purple that is almost black. In the picture it looks black lol. I think (but could be wrong) that this color is discontinued :(. They have a new one that is called Linkin Park at Midnight that is similar, but it's not the same.
Every Month is Octoberfest is a really pretty dark purple with reddish and copper shimmer in it. It's super pretty and I just love the name of it. 
Midnight in Moscow is another one that I've loved for a few years. This one is pretty similar to the Octoberfest, but it is more red with no purple in it. It is also shimmery. 
Birthday Suit is a nude color that just goes with everything. While I love the dark colors, sometimes I just want something neutral on my nails. 
Merino Cool by Essie is a really pretty taupe/grayish color with purple undertones. It's really nice because it's also on the more neutral side, but it's darker than a nude color. 

This is all for my favorite Fall makeup items and nail polish!
