Autumn. Synonymous with falling leaves, hot drinks, the colour burgundy, rain and countless ITV2 repeats of ‘The Mummy’. Autumn is also a time when we dig out specific lip colours from our makeup bags that most of us will probably only wear for a maximum of three months, however it’s significant that we wear them because are are ‘AUTUMN COLOURS’.

I’ve always been a big fan of plum and purple shades as I think they show up best on my skin tone, so I decided to do a mini round up of my favourite shades. I hope to add more to my small collection so if you guys know of any other brands that do nice plum/purple shades, please let me know! I’ve reviewed all the shades below on the blog previously so if you’d like more details about the product, please click on the links below!
