september favorites: must have beauty products for a flawless fall
I can’t express how excited I am for all of falls festivities!
With this weather switch up, we want to make sure we look great while doing them too! So let’s dive into the long lasting primers, hydrating skin care and perfect lashes I use to get this seasons trending wedding makeup looks.
E.l.f. Power Grip Primer: The Final Boss Grip
The El.f. Power Grip #ad Primer has been a staple in my kit through year round. Not only is it perfect for all skin types, it delivers long lasting results for all. This light weight formula creates a sticky barrier that will quite literally grip onto your skin and makeup for hours, creating a smooth canvas. It’s afforable yet delivers professional results. Another beautiful option that delivers the same results is the Hydro Grip Primer #ad. Although I do feel the E.l.f power grip is truly best for ALL skin types.
NYX Honey Dew Me Up Primer: Radiance in a bottle
NYX Honey Dew Me Up Primer #ad is great for all skin types, this has been my personal go to product for my skin type, which leans normal to dry.. Well let’s say combo haha. This has actually been the only primer I’ve used for years for a daily “natural look”. Anything more glam heavy, I’ll switch out to power grip. It gives me a perfect base for that fresh finish with a luminous glow, this is also beautiful to even wear it alone.
Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser: Filter in A Tube
Be prepared to say sayanara to your pores with Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser #ad This primer is literally velvet that fills in imperfections, think of icing a cake. Yummy! It dosent get anymore flawless than a silicone based primer. ESPECIALLY maybelline baby skin! You can get the best results with normal and oily skin. This an essential for a smooth glam look, whether its a neutral glam or a full on slay. This primer is for my glam baddies.
One Size Setting Spray: Locked and Loaded
I’m sure you’ve all hear me rave about Patrick Starrr One Size Setting Spray #ad once upon a blog ago, but there’s a reason for this staple. Not only is this formula light weight with a fine misting spray, you get a full day and night wear if you dare to not wash your face, and still have your makeup intact. They’ve done an under water test so that is what ultimately sold it for me. So you can bet on this for not only fall but any weather!
Kryolan Fixing Spray: Pro-Level Durability
Okay, I hate to compare anything to one size setting spray, but I want to point out some differences of Kryolan Fixing Setting Spray #ad so you can be the judge of what’s best for your preference. As for prepping, priming and setting the face. Hands down without a doubt in my mind. Special Effects makeup brands do it best! There is no other brands I can confidently put my trust in more. Now, theses brands are specifically meant for movie scenes and holding up prosthetics WHILE in motion or underwater. So this my dear, is my go to for brides who are extra serious about their makeup staying, especially if they go full out glam.
Now the difference, is
There is a strong alcohol based scent
It leaves your face feeling a bit sticky and then tight at first. Which some people don’t like, but it will definitely go away and loosen up
This happens because it is in fact actually creating a extremely thin, almost latex layer to seal the makeup. Which I think is incredible. But you can be the judge of that!
Clinique Moisture Surge 100H: Lasting Hydration
It is quite interesting to think there are silicones in some of our moisturizing products, but they definitely do a job, and a great one! Clinique Moisture Surge 100h #ad water based/silicone based moisturizer creates a barrier (hence the silicone) that prevents the moisturizing ingredients and water from evaporating, keeping your skin hydrated and plump. Just like the silicone based primer maybelline baby skin instant pore eraser,it delivers a smooth texture. Great for all skin types, but acne prone skin I would steer away from this since it does create a “barrier” and your skin need to breath as much as possible. Acne prone skin I’d opt for water based moisturizers.
Half Falsie Lashes: Effortless Pick Me Up
Let’s not forget these finishing touches with Natural Cat Eye Half Falsies #ad! This year, a vast amount brides have been wanting an au natural to a neutral glam look, and these half falsies were the icing to the cake! It added just the right amount of drama to show up softly on camera, but yet be balanced with the over all natural look.
These September tried and true products can help you embrace the changing season with confidence. And you will be sure to look fresh and rejuvenated for the cozy nights and/or festive gatherings!
