Fall Beauty Essentials // eyeliner wings & pretty things

You know those people who lose their minds as soon as September begins and start screaming about Halloween? You might even be one of those people. I’m kind of like that except as soon as September begins, regardless of how hot it is, I’m already losing my mind about how it’s basically AUTUMN! Or fall if you prefer the less pretty word for it.

Fall is my favorite season and makeup is one of my favorite things ergo, fall beauty essentials. I already have fall wardrobe essentials if you’d like to check it out, too!

Quick + Easy Wear To Class Makeup Look // eyeliner wings & pretty things

When it comes to getting ready in the morning, you’ll want to optimize your time by applying the makeup products that’ll make the most impact and make you look most awake. The areas I’ve found make the biggest difference when all made up are: eyebrows, eyelashes and complexion. 

Secondarily, I’ve found that lips and cheeks can also make a huge difference if you’ve got a few extra seconds. Also, I’m totally biased and I know that for the majority liquid liner is not something that takes a minimal amount of time and can be incorporated into a quick morning routine. *Cliche romance novel voice* I’m not like the other girls, I mean, I need to get that wing in every day, after all ya girl’s blog name is eyeliner wings and pretty things.

This quick and easy wear to class makeup look will let you sleep late & look great when you head to class. Yay!
