When it is cold outside… Inspiration - Autumn/Winter Beauty Must-haves!

We are well into the Autumn and before we know it, winter will be upon us.
As every other beauty-lover, I have some products, that are absolute must-haves in the colder months.

So let get started with my must-haves.

1. Warm bronze eye
I love the look of a bronze eye all year round, but especially in the colder months, I feel like warming up my face with some warm bronze shades.
Mac Woodwinked eyeshadow is a great warm bronze shadow, that can do it all in one and the H&M Eye Pencil in Come in Third is the perfect warm bronze eyeliner to create a bit of definition.

2. Berry lip
You will probably find this in every Autumn/Winter must-have, but berry lips are just so perfect for this season.
Right now my favourite for a matte/satin lip, I love the Maybelline Colordrama Velvet Lip Pencil in Keep it Classy and for more glossy lip fill in my lips with H&M Lip Definer in Cherry Tart with Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Stick in Raplumzel.

3. Beauty blender
My skin is just dull and lackluster this time of year, so most days I turn to my Beauty blender for foundation application, as it just gives the perfect luminous and fresh finish no matter the base.

4. Metallic nail polish
For this Autumn/Winter I will be embracing the metallic nail polishes.
The H&M nail polish line is quickly becoming my new favourite and they do great metallic ones.
I got the colours Copper Penny and Silver Fern.

5. Heavy-duty body cream
My skin is so dry and itchy, which just gets worse, when the weather gets colder.
I love The Body Shop Body Butters - they give great moisture without leaving a greasy film on the body.
My favourite scents are Shea and Honey.

6. Body scrub
To further help the dry/itchy skin situation a good body scrub is an absolute must.
My favourite are the & Other Stories Body Scrubs - they do a great selection of scents, but one of my favourites are Punk Bouquet.

7. Hydrating mask
For the face I need a good hydrating mask.
The french pharmacy brand (right now I have the one from La Roche-Posay) do great affordable ones.
I often leave it on for a whole night, until I feel like my skin has taken everything it can from the mask.

8. Face oil
To nourish my skin further, I use a face oil every night.
The Clarins Blue Orchid Face Treatment oil is a holy grail in my skincare routine all year round, but I need it more in the colder months.

9. Hair mask
I have fine typical Scandinavian hair and it gets majorly static and fluffy in the cold.
To tame it bit I need a hair mask - I don't really have favourite, but right now I use the L'Oreal Everstrong one, which is great, it just smells so bad, like toilet cleanser - Why L'Oreal, why??

So these were my Autumn/Winter must-haves - what are yours?
