I have no patience. Its barely the end of August and I am Autumn ready. Well, its hardly summer weather so why wait with my makeup? So far I have restrained myself from wearing the berry lips already, but after a little Nars at House of Fraser browse I have been wearing berry in another form for my slightly punctual autumn look.
First up, like anyone who likes Nars foundation, their Sheer Glow Foundation in Deauville (£31) is naturally what I use to help even out my skin, and I can see why this bottle gets so much hype now. On the days when I am not being lazy, my already autumn-esque skin (aka dry, flakey and dull) really benefits from the use of their Light Optimizing primer. And to make me look a bit of life-full? Their blush in Unlawful.
Eye wise is where my berry tone have snuck in, and I have finally been pulled away from my Urban Decay Naked palette and fall for the Nars Eyeshadow Duo in Kuala Lumpur (£25). Not sure of the relation of a Rose Gold & Boysenberry infused with gold eyeshadow and the Malaysian capital, but when a shadow is this pretty it really doesn't matter. I just smudged the darker berry colour under my lash line to show it off more. And why did no one tell me to try Nars's eyeshadows sooner? As I am not sure what I prefer, the colours or the pigmentation.
To finish the look, I finally jumped on this Nars Velvet Matte Lipstick Pencil bandwagon with the shade Belle De Jour (£19). This pencil was made for smoky eyes - fact. The beige tones give that cliched 'your lips but better look', and also perfect for when you need to photograph the most awkward pout in the world (see above...).
Are you looking forward to Autumn makeup?
