Autumn Essentials

How is it the 7th of November already?! Seriously, where has this year gone! 2017 has seemed like one of my busiest years yet, so the products I have been using have had to be super reliable. Here is a breakdown of a handful of my autumn essentials so far! 

Jaclyn Hill x Morphe Eyeshadow Palette £37
The Jaclyn Hill x Morphe palette is probably the biggest palette release of 2017 and is one of my absolute all time favourites! Such a beautiful array of colours and textures! It consists of mainly warm shades making it perfect for autumn/winter. 

Charlotte Tilbury Instant Eye Palette £60
The Charlotte Tilbury Instant eye palette definitely has a more high end price tag but really is the ultimate palette when it comes to luxury! All the shades within the palette are silky, beautifully pigmented and really wearable. The palettes layout also makes recreating looks super easy!

Mac 'Lady Danger' Lipstick £16.50
'Lady Danger' is a beautiful orange/red matte lipstick by MAC and is another one of my all time favourites! I love a classic red lip during autumn and winter, but there is something about this more orange toned lipstick that adds something a little different to a typical festive makeup look. I love it!

Fenty Beauty 'Trophy Wife' Highlighter £26
When it comes to 'Trophy Wife' by Fenty Beauty, I only have one word... WOW! This is an extremely gold highlight with a lot of glitter! For me this is the perfect highlighter to dust over your décolleté for Christmas parties! I wore it out recently and so many people complimented me on it!

Barry M Nail Varnish £3.99 + £4.99
When I don't have gel on my nails, I pretty much only wear Barry M nail varnish! They have such a variety of colours, I know I will always find the shade I'm looking for. The colours I have hear are Prickly Pear and Laguna. I just love how fresh these two colours are!

New Look Bra £4
One of the trends I have loved most this year is embroidered bras or bralettes underneath sheer tops. This one here I picked up in the New Look sale for only £4! Such a bargain! I couldn't find the exact one to link but here is one that's very similar.

Primark Brushes £1.50
One of the most frequent questions I get asked is 'What makeup brushes do you use/recommend?'. Now, there are lots and lots of brands which do some fabulous brushes... but I still often gravitate towards simple Primark brushes. Not only are they really affordable, they are actually really good quality too!

Morphe R45 Angled Liner Brush £4.50
Apart from Primark, one of my other favourite brush brands is of course Morphe Brushes! Again their brushes are really affordable and are also incredible quality! I have talked a bit about them in my 'Brushes for Beginners' video on my YouTube channel. So if you haven't heard about them, do go over and have a little watch! The brush I'm featuring here is the R45 Angled Liner Brush.

Delicate Silver Jewellery 
I love jewellery as much as the next person! But during autumn I usually don't want anything too heavy! This beautiful bracelet was actually a present from my mum a while ago but its still one of my favourites! Its by a brand called Joma Jewellery and they have some of the most fabulous delicate jewellery. The rings are by Pandora and will always be my go-to accessory for any look!
