Fall Beauty Buys: What You Need

Brrrrrr. Feel that ladies? That’s the weather starting to chill¦but that doesn’t mean your beauty routine needs to cool off as well. Be prepared for the breezier days with our five must-have “fall”-backs for every girl’s autumn beauty regime!

Neon
Don’t feel that just because the season’s colours are changing to oranges and browns, that you have to do the same. Fall is a great time to pair up your favourite neutrals and deep autumn shades with bursts of bright neons that will spice up your look and keep a cheery and warm feel as the temperatures start to drop. Highlight your nails, your eyes, or, if you are really brave, your eyes with pops of cobalt, yellow, lime, or tangerine. Try American Apparel’s neon nail polish line ($9 at American Apparel stores and online at store.americanapparel.ca).

B.B. Cream

BB Cream

Sure, they might just seem like a fancy new way to market tinted moisturizers, but in reality Beauty Balms (or B.B. Creams) are designed to provide a lighter coverage with added benefits for the skin. The beauty craze that ha rapidly made it was from Asia to North American shores doesn’t show any sign of slowing any time soon. Our pick? L’Oreal Youth Code BB Cream ($17 at drug stores).

Burgundy

Burgundy

On the lips and the fingertips — burgundy is the colour of the season this fall! This rich, velvety shade is the perfect way to go striking on the lips (we love the wet look with a super high shine gloss such as CARGO blu_ray Lip Gloss in Bogota – $24 at ebeauty.ca) or gorgeous on your tips (try Ciate Paint Pots in Dangerous Affair — $14 from ebeauty.ca).

SPF

SPF

Just because the sun isn’t coming out to play as often these days doesn’t mean you can completely neglect your skin protection practices. While you should switch your daily moisturizer to prep for the harsher weather that is on the way, always ensure (no matter what time of year it is!) that your moisturizer provides a good SPF coverage. Try Josie Maran Jumbo Argan Daily Moisturizer SPF 40+ ($65 at Sephora.com)

Curling wand

hair styling

Fall in love with the season (and maybe a handsome new man!) with the big, loose, romantic curls that will be everywhere this fall. Use a freehand curling wand — the irons without a clip — to ensure imperfectly perfect, carefree curls, every time. We love the Conico Grande 25/18mm Curling Iron by Enzo Milano! And it comes with a handy curling glove to protect your digits! ($143 at ebeauty.ca)
