I’m always looking for new beauty products, and I’m glad for any excuse to find new ones. I’ve been perusing beauty magazines, and I’ve culled out some beauty products that they’re calling must-haves. Some of them I’ve tried, and some I’m just dying to.

Feminine floral perfumes are big this fall. Nothing too overwhelming, or strong. Something sublimely feminine, with a citrus or musk underneath. Try Pink Sugar by Aquolina. It blends sweet notes like vanilla, caramel, cotton candy and light florals for a fun, playful fragrance. Fresh top notes are bergamot, Sicilian orange, and fig leaves, against a lush heart of lily of the valley, licorice blossom, and red fruits. A sensual base is provided by vanilla, caramel, woods and musks.

Perfectly tousled hair with Powder Texturizing Spray. For fall and winter, a soft, tousled look is effortlessly sexy with dry texturizing spray. You get no stickiness, and you get the volume and texture you want. You just spray it evenly to get volume and style. Try Big Sexy Hair Powder Play Volumizing and Texturizing Powder.

Smokey eyes are big for fall, again. They never seem to go out of style. A smokey eyeshadow is sultry and sexy, and it’s a must have. Here’s a tutorial on how to get a great smokey, sexy eye:

For great smokey eyes, try the Kim Kardashian Makeup Compact. You’ll get products to give you luscious nude lips, sultry smoky eyes, and flushed cheeks. A chic mirrored compact holds your must-have eye, lip, and cheek colors plus applicators for on-the-go glamour. It’s a perfect Christmas gift for yourself or someone else.

With autumn’s cooler temperatures, damp weather, and windy gusts, your skin can take a beating. Unlike warmer summer weather when your skin can be oilier, in the fall you really need to concentrate on moisturizing your skin. The following tips will keep your skin smooth, soft, and supple, even during the harshest weather.

A daily moisturizer is a must, even if you have oily skin. If you have problems with your face becoming oily during the day, it doesn’t mean that your skin is adequately hydrated. You want to use a light moisturizer that will keep your skin in good condition, not skip the moisturizer altogether. Instead of skipping it, use blotting papers to remove oil without destroying your makeup.

Moisturize your skin right from the start. Use a moisturizing soap or bodywash to keep your skin smooth, soft, and supple.

Use a lotion, all over your body. Directly after your shower or bath, slather on the lotion. It will hydrate your skin better that way because you are already warm and moist, and do a better job of keeping you from drying out during the day. Use an ultra healing lotion on dry spots like elbows and knees, or if you have patches of dry or scaly skin. You’ll be happy you did so when the weather turns even cooler.

Don’t forget to moisturize your hair, as well. Using a leave in conditioner will keep the cooler weather from drying out your hair. Use a good one, especially if you use heat styling products. I am particularly fond of Chi Silk Infusion. It’s made by the same company that sells flat irons, and it does a great job of leaving your hair smooth and hydrated, with no flyaways and no visible split ends. It also strengthens your hair, always a plus.

The long hot summer is over, and with it goes summer makeup and beauty care. Fall, with its cooler weather has a whole different set of beauty problems. Here are some tips to keep you looking fresh this fall.

Hair Care

Make sure to deep condition your hair once a week. The dryer air and cooler temps of the fall can dry out your locks in a heartbeat. You don’t want your hair looking as dull as the dead leaves littering the ground. Deep conditioning treatments will keep your hair soft, shiny and healthy.

Try not to shampoo as frequently. Try every other day if you can.

Use a leave in conditioner. You might think your hair gets less damage in the autumn, but you’d be wrong. We all tend to shed more hair during the fall, so conditioner your hair and strengthen that new hair right from the beginning.

Skin care

As the winds pick up and the air grows cooler, you’re going to be more prone to dryness and chapping. Make sure you use a daily moisturizer with a sunscreen during the day. Use a night moisturizer as well, to keep down the chapping and dry skin. Also, use a moisturizing body wash, to keep the rest of your skin from drying out.

Make sure to exfoliate during the fall. You’ll avoid that flaky, dull skin you can get in cooler, windy weather. Just make sure you moisturize well afterward.

Nail care

Colder air also makes your nails more brittle. File them on a regular basis, to avoid snags or breakage. Use a nail and cuticle moisturizer to minimize brittleness and dryness.

Eye care

Just as your skin can be dryer in the autumn, so can the tender, delicate skin around your eyes. Make sure to use a moisturizer specifically for eyes. If you’ve got puffiness and dark circles, drink more water and use an eye serum.

Lip care

Your lips can be prone to chapping and peeling in the cool fall wind. Use a tinted lip balm during the day to combat dryness. For night wear, a moisturizing lip stick is best.
