Not exclusively, no! I definitely get the urge to wear darker shades on the lips during fall, but I think the seasons have more of an impact on my skin and what products I use there.

Not exclusively, but for makeup, I usually save the vampier colors (dark purples and dark browns) for fall/winter. For skincare, I switch to heavier creams/sunscreens, hydrating cleansers, and more facial oils, but it depends on my skin
Color wise? Only in that I definitely do *tend* to wear my darker, deeper shades during cooler weather. But it’s not a hard and fast rule that I stick by! I tend to pick my clothing and makeup shades according to mood, not season.
Skincare and foundation wise, I do, though. During the extreme AZ heat, I don’t usually wear foundation. Instead opting for a BB cream, and using standard foundation from around mid October into mid May. Also give my skin more attention during winter, too.
Yes. I have very oily skin, but in the cold months, my skin gets a little dry; specifically, in certain spots. I require a more moisture, despite having an unpredictable oily face, so I tend to save and mostly wear liquid or cream foundations during this time of year. That’s about it. Everything else is seasonal fair game.
not exclusively! but same as you i’d love to wear a vampy lip! and eyeshadows with the vibe of mac cranberry and also subtle gold tones. i love fall makeup trends! even though where i live we doesn’t have fall hah!
I definitely feel the urge to wear a lot of jewel tones and vampy shades in fall – much more than in any other season. I also tend to wear a more shimmery highlighter in the darker seasons!
Agreed with you! I love wearing darker shades. My makeup changes according to my unpredictable skin. Right now it is so dry that I need to get a new foundation! Do you have any drugstore recommendation Christine? Thanks! xx
Nope, nothing is season-exclusive for me.
Probably Clinique Aromatics Elixir is the one “product” I only use in the fall and cooler weather. And Guerlain Habit Rouge lipstick – I do use it year-round but not very often but in fall, I use it quite a bit.
I’ve been using more plum and berry lipsticks more than usual during the fall. I also had made my brows a little darker, and I also use more of gold and bronze with my eyes.
I keep things wearable during the day and not too glam because I’m that kind of girl to do that.
just darker shades of eyes and lips but i do change up my skincare routine
There aren’t products that I only wear in the fall, but I do tend to wear darker and vampy shades more often.
Hmm . . .I guess so, I don’t think it’s intentional, but I do go for the darker colors and smokier looks in colder weather. It’s like what Christine said, too – I have to use certain products depending on the weather.
I love breaking out my dark matte lipsticks (KVD Vampira, Exorcism) and my dark eyeshadows (MAC Deep Dampson, Cranberry.) I have fair skin, and in the fall/winter I am at my fairest here in Michigan- so I don’t often wear these very dark colors, but I do have a decent collection of vampy shades.
Darker lip, eye and nail shades.
Hourglass No. 28 oil primer! My dry skin savior!
I don’t use special products but different shades.
This actually occurred this morning for me! My skin is most definitely combination as I have dry spots on my face but it still gets super oily throughout the day. What I do when seasons are cold vs. hot is alternate between 2 different foundations. During warmer months where I tend to get oily faster, I use Chanel’s Perfection Lumiere Velvet. And now that it’s much cooler I use Chanel’s Vitalumiere Aqua. Between those two, I am in perfect foundation heaven for daily/work use!
Not with makeup since I tend to do bold and dark looks year-round, but in the fall/winter the air gets drier where I live, so I tend to switch to heavier moisturizers and lip treatments, and add a super creamy moisturizing body wash to my routine.
I wouldn’t say that my makeup changes at all. My everyday makeup for work doesn’t change and my weekend makeup varies wildly- I’m as likely to go for deep burgundy lips as I am bright coral lips regardless of the time of year! I’ll do more red lips around Christmas time but that’s about it. 😛
No, I don’t wear anything exclusive to fall. I use more body cream/lotion and lip balm. I use waterproof mascara more often.
I usually reserve my darker, berry toned lipsticks for fall and winter, but I can rock the lighter ones in spring too! Fall is usually when I pull out the orange and red-toned eyeshadows too.
I’m basically the same as Christine. Nothing exclusive to the seasons, but the seasons to affect what I wear, either due to the drier air, getting more sun, or seasonal colors and styles of makeup.
Actually no. I wear the makeup I think reflects my mood any given day.
Not really – but I find I do tend to “love” my neutrals a little more as I wear the autumn shades. Lots more forest greens and golds. Certainly I wear more berry coloured lipsticks. As for skincare, I follow the same routine as our homes and places aren’t as overly heated as some in winter. It’s summer in Australia that you really need to take care of skin – sunscreen and light moisturizers.
I wear dark lips when I feel like it but it’s more at home in the fall and winter. I do add in more heavy moisturizer!
Nope! I stick to the same makeup, skincare and clothing year-round. (Which is whatever I feel like. Layering like crazy in summer and vampy colors? Sure! Tanktops in “winter” wih pastels and brights? Absolutely. (What are seasons -_-)
Dark purple nail polish
I definitely wear different moisturizes in colder months. I also tend to save my deeper/darker lipsticks and eyeshadows for autumn and winter. Then there’s glittery makeup (normally avoided — with a few exceptions) which I’ll wear from the end of November until January first.
There’s is nothing that I exclusively wear in the fall… but there are products I might wear a lot more often in the fall.
-anything that has a really spicy or oriental scent or scent of a typically fall fruit (cinnamon, ripe apple, pear, red grapes, cooking spices, baked goods etc.) – perfume, body care etc.
-dark and terracotta and warmer brown lipsticks
-red, burgundy, terracotta, brick red, deep jeweltone eyeshadows
-darker nail polish
When the temps cool off I love to use my darker, vampier lip and nail colors. I also tend to slather on thicker body creams and lotions to banish the fall/winter ash and add extra layers of face oils to help lock in moisture on my face.
Caudalie Vino Source saved my skin this fall! Only product that got rid of dry patches.
Nah, I tend to use what I want whenever I want…I’m such a rebel. I do have a tendency to use more moisturizing products in general since my skin is the Sahara’s twin.
Nope! All my favorite colors are “fall” colors and I wear them all year long.
