My fall beauty wish list

Brrr it’s cold outside! It’s time to stay warm at home, make it our personal sanctuary and treat ourselves more! So I’ve created this fall beauty wish list with all the comfortable things for our senses: sight, touch and smell.
I like to wear autumnal colours through make-up and clothes in order to have a deeper connection with nature.

Nature’s colours are earthy and warm in autumn, here we have greens, browns and yellows; the tones of the hills surrounding my village covered by changing trees, the colours of dreamy pathways made of fallen leaves. Measurable Difference eyeshadow in Desert Nights (see at the bottom, there’s a surprise) and Natural Nude are the perfect palettes for the season with five high pigmented colours ranging from pale yellows to dark browns, shimmer khaki to greys, great for all eye colours! Smokey eye in greys or in browns?  Avon tint lip pen in Hazelnut is the ultimate launch from the american brand, an easy to use pen marker for your lips in a causal nude/light caramel tone that lasts very long! My Ny Glam Lacquer in I love Hong Kong is a shower of green sparkly military green bar glitters, as tiny magical pine needles…. It’s also a 3 big free nail polish! 

To indulge in amazing scents I added two Garnier hair products I’ve recently discovered at the supermarket: the cocoa and coconut oil shampoo and hair conditioner for straight hair. I know, guys and gals, my hair is crazy and frizzy but believe me, these products have a delicious chocolate scent… ah, If I only could savour them! 

“Warm” scents, anyone? Demeter Black Russian is a double-face cologne, both bitter and sweet like coffee and vodka and life. It’s peculiar as all perfumes from the Demeter Fragrance Library are!  
Take your seat close to the fireplace and let’s toast some marshmallows, yes, that yummy scent in one handmade tiny soy candle for a super cozy home and instant childhood memories.
What about fashion?
I love scarfs, wrapping them all around my neck (and face), the nice sensation they give… this Pimkie checkered scarf is causal, light enough for the transitional days and weather.
Maple leaves remind me of Canada and autumn, but mainly the current season. This handmade necklace with beads and cotton leaves is just adorable.
Are you excited by the new season? 


I’m and I’m fully enjoying every cup of hot tea I’m drinking.
If you feel excited and lucky, try your chance with this autumnal giveaway by Chrislie Formulation… the prize is the Measurable Difference Desert Nights eyeshadow compact as seen below! 

Good luck and stay warm!
