Winter Beauty Essentials

Happy Hump DAY!!! Today is my first beauty post ever with all my winter beauty essentials! Hurray!

So let’s talk winter beauty essentials for a minute. Does your winter beauty routine differ from your summer routine? Mine differs ever so slightly and I am going to go over that today.

The Essentials

Tanning lotion – My number one must have in the winter. I have been using this lotion and mousse from Tanceuticals (C/O) and it’s been amazing. No need to rinse or worry about staining your bed sheets with this product. They are ranked number 1 here for self tanners for a good reason!

Warm tone eyeshadows – I love this new pallet from Anastasia. They have thousands of great reviews on Sephora and Ulta for a reason. The pigment is amazing and the colors are to die for. I have been going on Pinterest to find fun looks to try.

Full coverage foundation – In the winter I like to wear a full coverage foundation because my skin is lighter and I think that shows more of my unevenness. I am obsessed with this new Nars foundation and HIGHLY recommend. It blend so nice and looks very natural.

Primer – This Nars primer is radiant and beautiful and much more subtle than my Becca primer that I’ve been using.

Highlighter – I normally wear a more subtle highlighter in the winter and more shimmer in the summer.

Bold lipstick – I normally use nudes colors throughout the summer, but in the fall and winter I love to break out the berry and dark red tones. I am even wearing a magenta lip stain today. A bold lip in the winter is perfect acceptable in the workplace, in my opinion.
