The Beauty Council: Fall Beauty Buys

purchased affiliate links

I am so excited to tell you about this new project created by a group of fabulous beauty bloggers. The Beauty Council is a new bi-monthly linkup series where we will discuss buzz-worthy season-appropriate topics, share our favorite beauty products, tips, makeup looks, and even nail art. This week we are talking about must-have Fall Beauty Buys.

In this post I wanted to show you a some items I already bought paired with a few things freshly added to my seasonal wishlist that I’m planning to pick up soon. Best part? I split them into Splurge vs Save categories, because everybody loves a good drugstore dupe!

LIPSTICKS

Every Fall I reach for two opposites – deep wine/berry lip colors and nude matte or semi-matte shades; and as always, there are so many to choose from! I already splurged on Charlotte Tilbury K.I.S.S.I.N.G. lipstick, and now I also want to try both mattes from Milani Fall 2014 Limited Edition Collection.

Splurge: Charlotte Tilbury KISSING Lipstick in Bitch Perfect [$36]
Save: Milani Matte Lip Art in Enchanted Topaz [$4.19]

NAIL POLISH

I don’t know about you ladies, but I’ve always been a fan of darker jewel tones for Fall/Winter. Right now my favorites are Chanel Taboo [it’s on my wishlist after seeing swatches online], and OPI Russian Navy, which is close in color, but has a tad more blue. I don’t think I need both of them, so I’m still deciding whether I should finally splurge on Chanel or just grab the OPI while it’s on sale at drugstore.com.

Splurge: Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colour in 583 Taboo [$27]
Save: OPI Nail Polish in Russian Navy [$8]

PALETTES

This one was easy! I purchased tarte Amazonian Clay Rainforest After Dark Limited Edition Palette a few weeks ago and I already got more use out of it than all my other palettes combined. Seriously, if you love neutrals, this one is a must-buy. I was also thinking about getting Guerlain Écrin 6 Couleurs Eyeshadow Palette in Rue de Passy, but the steep price tag keeps me away. Only reason I even considered it was because September is my Birthday month, so I feel like splurging on fancy things.

Splurge: Guerlain Écrin 6 Couleurs Eyeshadow Palette in Rue de Passy [$90]
Save: tarte Amazonian Clay Rainforest After Dark Limited Edition Palette [$38]

I hope you enjoyed this little compilation of my current beauty obsessions!

    ooooohhhh I have “Bitch Perfect” but I am totally about to go get that Milani color too. It looks amazing. And I seriously NEED that Tarte palette. Great fall picks!

    Awesome picks! This post made me realize I haven’t tried my CT lippies I ordered yet (shame on me).

    Ok so the “I don’t care” part of me is like I am going to be buying a CT lippie soon but the beget wise side of me is like “Girl JUST get the Milani version”. Oh the dilemma! =)

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Tarte Amazonian Clay Rainforest After Dark Limited Edition Palette. Thanks for introducing this to me! The colors are amazing, and they stay on all day in a beautiful, natural way. I decided to get an extra palette because I have never found a palette that I love this much.
