Transition into autumn with Senna Cosmetics!

[twitter-follow screen_name=’NoireTropicalB’]

The weather is already cold here and I am already thinking of all the Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Lattes that I will imbibe!  But just because makeup colours are getting darker does not mean that you have to abandon your summer shades.  I love incorporating bright, intense colours in my smokier looks.

This is Senna Cosmetics Summer Collection.

This collection is suited for fair/pale skintones,

While this works better with medium to darker skintones.

These were both really nice collections but there were a few standouts that I wore throughout the summer and I fully intend to continue to use.

First is the Emerald Glow Eye Color, which is a medium green that leans on the blue side.

Emerald is the Pantone Colour of the Year so, find every excuse to wear it!  It has a decent texture with a fine shimmer mixed in.  I got this fallout with this shadow (mainly the glittery bits), so use a flat eye shadow brush to pack this on.  This could form the basis of a smoky eye or a multi-coloured look, similar to what I tried a few weeks ago.

Here is the colour that obsessed over for the last few months! Bonfire Lip Lacquer!

I was so excited with I saw the promo for this! A gorgeous, bbrrriight, semi-opaque reddish-orange lip gloss!  This even shows up on my pigmented lips and it’s not sticky in texture.  Orange lips were big on the runway during NYFW for Spring/Summer 2014, but this would be a perfect way to incorporate the shades of falling leaves in our makeup look!  Since this is such a bold colour, I would wear a neutral/flesh-toned lid, maybe a little contouring in the crease, thick winged out liner and false lashes.

The Rose Gold Glow Eye Color gets an honourable mention.  It’s a basic champagne shadow, with a hint of pink.  Works well all over the lid.

And by the way, Senna makes really, really good brushes.  I’ve been using their Brow 1 brush with their Brow Shaper Duo and it’s amazing!  The Sunglow Collection came with a Powder Pointer brush, which is a soft, great overall face powder brush that you can use to apply blusher or bronzer.
