My Go-To Winter Make-Up Look


It's not often I blog about make up anymore, but I've been going back to the same make up look every other day for the past few weeks and I really felt the need to share it with you. If I'm not wearing this make up look, I'm either not wearing make up at all or I've gone for a nude look with a bright lip; my usual go-to look. But I've really been digging burgundy make up lately and so I've started to do this all burgundy make up look for a more winter/autumnal feel recently and I'm loving it!
I thought I'd share with you the products that I use to get this look, and why they are my favourites right now.


A few of these products I'm sharing today are new favourites, but most of them are old faves that I always seem to go back to time and time again.
As for my base, I'm really loving this new Bourjois Air Mat Foundation! The packaging is a perfect squeezable tube, and by perfect I mean for getting the most from your product rather than fighting with a glass bottle to get the last of the foundation. On top of that the product is amazing and probably my new favourite foundation ever with the ultimate coverage with a weightless feel. I absolutely love it. Together with my Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer I can't go wrong for a flawless base!

On my lips I've got the Max Factor lipstick in Mulberry which is a gorgeous shimmery burgundy shade. I absolutely love it and of all my dark red lipsticks, is a new favourite. It's gorgeous and adds a little shimmer for a more glamorous feel which I love. I always feel really sassy and cool when I'm wearing this lipstick!

For eyes I've gone for the only burgundy shade I have in allllll my eyeshadow palettes and I really need anyone's help to find one like it because I've hit pan!!!! I have this colour in my BH Cosmetics 2nd Edition 120 Colour Eyeshadow Palette. It's a beautiful red/copper colour, very metallic and very highly pigmented. It's always been my favourite in the whole palette and I cannot for the life of me find another burgundy eyeshadow either alone or in a palette. With all the khaki, nudes and burgundy being in right now I thought it would be easy but it's not... Help!?
My new eyeliner is also a dream from Sephora. I got to go to the Sephora in Lisbon and all I wanted was a couple of eyeshadows and an eyeliner and I picked up their own branded Sephora Smart Liner, which I'm worrying about running out of (in case I can't get it again). Not only is it so easy to apply, but the black is highly pigmented and creates the most perfect clean line... It's eyeliner magic.

I hope you like my make up look! Let me know what you think and what your winter make up look is right now. And if you know of a burgundy eye shadow I can buy in the UK PLEASE let me know, because I'm like 110% sure I'd buy it if it's the right colour!
