The Winter Lip Combination

So we all know everyone loves to sport the red lip, but because this season hasn't been the coldest of winters, I wanted to give RiRi Woo a bit of a warmer tone and a little extra dimension. 

The Winter Nude

Of course its natural to stray toward the darker tones this time of the year. So essentially, the same has to be said when it comes to the humble nude lipstick. We've also got to take into account the bitter weather conditions and with that come the products advertising hydration. Not quite the hefty criteria, but I find The Revlon Lip Butter in 'Pink Truffle' fits the bill just about right. 

Lets Talk Lip Care

Autumn is officially in full swing, hence the lovely seasonal change in background. However, the weather it drags along with it can reek havoc on our precious lips and lets face it, no one wants to be sporting the chapped lips trend this fall and winter. So in order to keep them in lip locking condition, here is my combination of products to see me through.

My Love For Fuzzy Socks

                                                              (Primark- £3.00)

It is now October 1st which means halloween is essentially just round the corner and I'm excited to say that pumpkin spice latte is coming into season soon at Starbucks... I am beyond excited, more so than the average person should be in relation to hot coffee beverages. 

Off topic introduction over. I have quite cold feet most of the time due to bad circulation; so when fall and winter comes around, along with the dreaded change in weather, I rely on my best friend, the fuzzy sock, to keep my piggies toasty... and from falling off. 

Now, My darling mother knows full well how much I complain, so she ever so kindly picked these up during a little shopping trip. These are probably the first of many I will be getting my hands on this winter as I practically live in them and need a constant change in sock scenery. 

The pattern is oh so festive and is already pulling me into the christmas spirit, but they are SO comfy adorned in gorgeously soft lining! They also have rubber discs stuck to the bottom for grip on tiles and slippery floors for the less coordinated of the bunch.

 As soon as I return from college I slip these puppies on and its just simple bliss.

If you are looking for a cheap but comfy pair for yourselves I highly recommend primark, thats essentially where I purchase my supply. 2 pairs for like £2 - £2.50 which is quite the bargain considering they're fairly good quality! 

Let me know what your favourite accessory is in the fall/winter!

The 'Go To' Nude

Although a shocking bold lip will always be a favourite for me, recently I have done a complete180 and become a lover of a simple nude lip. I think the reason being is that I have been drawn

 toward the more dramatic eye look so it is only natural to pair it with a more nude shade lip so as to not

 overwhelm the face. It was always a slight challenge finding a nice nude shade as I didn't want to seem 

washed out or even worse... ill in any way so I was fairly cautious when it came to the concealer-like nude 

shades.
