Names from Left to Right: Maybelline 'Pleasure Me Red' 547, Avon - 'Vixen', Collection - 'Cappuccino 2'

Autumn and Winter are my favourite seasons of the year. I realised that I didn't have a lot of autumnal makeup in my collection, so I decided to shop for some. I love purples and plums and greens and smokey colours as I think this looks gorgeous for the colder months.
Avon has some gorgeous eye shadow palettes and lip colours. I did have to restrain myself from buying all of it as I can get carried away. I bought a duo, which is called 'Deep Wine' and it has a gorgeous deep purple and I light ivory shade. I have been wearing this duo a lot and I am in love with it.
Another Avon purchase was the Luxe palette. his includes five beautiful shades and its called 'Glamorous Rose', which describes this palette wonderfully. The gold casing makes the palate look glamour and expensive but it was only about £7, which is a bargain.
L'Oreal have some amazing eye shadows and I saw this quad and I loved it and couldn't leave it behind. As this is a French brand I haven't got a clue what this quad is called, but the name on the casing is  'Tresors Caches, Colour Riche, Les Ombres'. I love green and this quad has a stunning  green running through the middle of it. The purple is actually darker on than it look in the palette, so I would suggest that you put this colour on sparingly and blending is key.
I bought a single eye shadow from Rimmel called 'Smokey Quartz' and its a really pretty, purple, grey, silver colour. It has a really nice texture and it so easy to wear, either on its own or with a purple in the crease.

Next onto lips. I love a good lipstick and I mostly wear them in the colder months. I brought a gorgeous red from Maybelline called 'Pleasure Me Red' , number 547 and it is so rich and beautiful and I think it would look great at Christmas time with a green smokey eye or a natural smoky eye.
From Avon I saw loads of gorgeous plum colours and deep purples, but the one that stood out to me most was the shade 'Vixen' and it is so deep and dark and I love it. it looks great with a purple smokey eye and would probably look beautiful with a natural smokey eye.
I think that everyone needs a good nude colour for any season and I picked up 'Cappuccino 2' from Collection and it was only like £3, which is great. It is a lip crayon and is like a 'your lips, but better colour'. I think it looks really natural, especially when you have gone bold on your eyes and want just a neutral lip.

I really wanted to try out a new foundation for the colder months and the 'Rimmel, Wake me Up' foundation is too glittery and glowy for the Autumn/Winter months. I chose 'Rimmel Match Perfection' in the shade '100 Ivory'. I don't know much about this foundation, except that it is less glowy. which suits me.

I have no explanation for buying an eyeliner, but I just really wanted to try out the Soap and Glory 'Supercat, Carbon Black Extreme Eyeliner Pen'. I think it will make eyeliner application so much easier.
