With the change in seasons, comes a lot of other changes, too! We, as humans, live by the seasons. We change our wardrobes, our outdoor activities, our go-to recipes. For me, one thing I know I need to change up is my makeup routine.

I’ve been doing the same glowy base and sunset eye all summer. It’s time to put away the tinted moisturizers and coral blushes and pick up some bronzy, toasty, burnt oranges. Today, I’m sharing what I picked out of my stash for my everyday makeup bag.

Let’s start with my favorite…cheeks!

For my eyes, I realized I probably wasn’t over the whole sunset eyes but I wanted to incorporate a few other tones with brown-green duo chromes and end-of-summer appropriate tropical hues.

While my eyeshadow selections are holding on to summer for dear life, my lip selections are totally fall-ready.

I never thought to much about changing up my fragrance until I met Thomas. He has a favorite scent for every occasion and every season - summer date night, fall wedding, spring road trip. He considers his scent as much a part of his outfit as his shirt and shoes. So, I went through my stash of samples to find some fall scents to try! Also, I added a eyeshadow topper and a lip and cheek stain to round out my choices.
