Fall Faves
Hi guys, happy Fall! :) I’ve put together a quick round-up of all of the things I’m loving this season, from beauty favs to new closet staples.
This cooler weather is liberating. I love being able to try new makeup looks + products without having to worry about my face melting off in the heat. Same goes for fashion — there’s no better time than now to experiment with new trends + try new looks!
I’m so excited to share these new (ish) finds with you all. Hope ya like -
Skincare + Beauty
For most of my life, I’ve been convinced that because I have oily skin, heavy matte products were the way to go. I almost didn’t try Fenty Skin because I came across a few reviews stating that oily skinned girls wouldn’t like the products. I’m so glad I bought them anyway because this line has opened so many doors for me. Suddenly I’m in love with my natural, dewy, radiant skin?? Who would’ve thought? Dramatic, I know, but Fenty Skin is that good.
I’ve started incorporating Summer Friday’s Vitamin C Serum in the am + Ole Henriksen’s Glow2OH™ Dark Spot Toner at night to help even out my complexion and I’m super happy with both.
If I’m wearing make up, most days I throw on my Kosas Concealer, minimal bronzer + blush + highlight from my Physicians Formula palette (super convenient + inexpensive!), NYX lip liner + a balm or my go-to Fenty Gloss and I’m out the door. I’ve also been trying out a new tinted moisturizer, Halo by Smashbox, so far so good! Full review coming soon.
Another fav: N°41 by Habit Skin. It’s a spray on SPF + I’ve been loving it for reapplication on the go. The mister feels super luxe + gives you the prettiest glow. I keep mine in my handbag at all times. (Use code LIFEWITHCOSY4HABIT for $10 off)
Clothing
So, I caved and ordered THE Zara jeans everyone’s been raving about this season and I’ve never been more in love with a piece of clothing in my life. Do you know how rare it is for me to find jeans that go past my ankles?? (sold out :/)
I’m also linking some other pieces I picked up from Glassons + Boohoo. Look forward to styling these!
Activewear
I’ve convinced myself that treating myself to activewear is a smarter investment than trendy fits no one will be seeing me in any time soon, so, new activewear it is.
I couldn’t pass up this brown marl set from Gymshark - the color is absolutely gorgeous on and is a neutral girl’s dream come true. I also love to mix and match my bottoms with their basic training bras.
I recently started running + wanted to try Nike’s Air Zoom Pegasus + they’re quite literally the most comfortable shoe I own. I can’t recommend them enough!
Accessories
I’ve been wanting a simple, chunky boot for everyday and recently discovered this pair. You’d never believe they’re from Target! They’re super comfortable + great quality, 10/10. This square toe mule from Miss Lola is too good not to mention. They look great paired with the full length denim.
I’ve also been loving these gold hoops from Amazon. I wear the smaller ones everyday and they have yet to tarnish after 6ish months of wear.
Lastly, the infamous Prada bag dupe that’ll compliment any outfit - Peta and Jain’s Paloma bag.
other
I wanted to quickly mention a few websites/apps that have helped me stay on top of things while WFH. I like to use the Evernote app to jot things down, draft blog posts, make to-do lists, etc. Asana is great for keeping track of things I need to get done. Linking UO’s daily planners below - love these because they’re undated! Knowing that I’ll use each + every page feels less wasteful.
What are some of your fall faves? Let me know in the comments or over on IG @lifewithcosy.
