It’s officially fall! I’m one of those people that prefers this to any other season so I’m very happy, even though it’s still 90 degrees out today.
Beauty
Wet N’ Wild Catsuit liquid eyeshadow / As a big fan of WNW products I had wanted to try out this liquid shadow as an eye primer. They have a good selection of nude shades to pick from, and I got the one closest to Layin Low paint pot by Mac. It’s a greyish beige nude. It blends out easily, is pigmented, and seems to hold my eyeshadow in place.
Maybelline Fit Me 330 Toffee / This powder is amazing for setting foundation.
Makeup Revolution Conceal & Define Liquid Foundation / Everytime I do my makeup I reach for this foundation lately! If you’re oily you definitely need a hardcore matte primer, but if you have dry skin you’ll love the radiance it gives. I like the doe foot applicator and the glass packaging feels a little bit more luxury. I like it best over Becca Evermatte primer and use the shade F12.
Ardell 113 lashes / I’ve mentioned these forever ago, but I’ve been on such a magnetic lash kick for a year now that I barely ever talk about lash strips I love. I put these on a bridal trial and she loved them SO much when she’s usually more of a natural girl. They are STUNNING!
Sally Hansen Go Garnet Insta Dry Nail Polish / This is a blackened burgundy red shade that’s super shiny. Buff nails a bit before application to minimize chipping. Here’s my post on my DIY manicure.
Skincare post / Tooting my own horn here, here is my very thorough skincare post. It has everything you need to know to get into a skincare routine that doesn’t break the bank.
Too Faced Chocolate Soleil / At some point this became my perfect shade to contour and bronze with. It’s good for tan skin and has no orange. Physician’s Formula Butter Bronzer is the closest dupe I have found.
Tanwise Dark Foam Sunless Tan / Sally Beauty has the best stuff, and this tanning foam is no different. I’ve tried A LOT of brands, and this is just as good as Loving Tan, if not darker.
Soli Notes Vanille / I picked this perfume up at Target and keep it in my purse for touch ups. It’s a true vanilla scent and I’ve gotten quite a few compliments whenever I wear it!
CLOTHING & ACCESSORIES
Pavoi rings / The brand “PAVOI” on Amazon has amazing jewelry that doesn’t tarnish or bother my skin. Haven’t taken these off since I bought them in July. 1 2
Sam Edelman sandal / I’ll be wearing these cognac Sam Edelman sandals until it’s too cold to do so. I like that they’re a bit dressier than a flip flop so I feel comfortable wearing them to work. They are a perfect alternative to the Tory Burch Miller sandal. They runa half size too big, so keep that in mind if you order.
American Eagle / Obsessed with everything they have out right now!!
Burgundy top / Another Amazon find… my blog might as well be called KimandAmazon at this point.
Beige Corduroy Jacket / So I got this corduroy jacket recently but still want to include it in this favorites. It is a medium weight fabric, good quality, cute distressed hem, & oversized fit. I got the large and could have done the medium to have it more fitted but I’m sticking with the large to have it fit bigger like the pics on Amazon. I’m a size 10, 5’10” for reference. Excited to have something different than the jean jacket I wear daily. It’s the perfect cream beige color imo.
Thanks for reading!! Let me know if you’ve tried anything I mentioned here.
