After an awful week of work I could think of nothing better but heading down to the mall and shopping up some Autumn goodies at Plaza.

I headed in fully intending to come out with a nude nailpolish for work in perhaps a grey or beige tone but ended up at the completely opposite end of the spectrum with this beautiful oxblood. Essie nail polish has only arrived in our local plaza in the last month or so and there could be no worse temptation. This Bordeaux colour was exactly what my heart really wanted despite my practical intentions.

As the Autumn turns into Winter our skin suffers more and more with the wind and dry air of the season. So, I thought this would be the perfect time to try the 'Chulip' lip-balm I've seen recently on the shelves of Plaza. Each balm is named after a city and after going through every scent I settled on Paris. I can't say this actually smells or relates very closely to Paris but it is a perfectly yummy berry scent.

Finally, my attention was drawn to the Revlon Colorburst Matte Balms. In all honesty, I could have bought the lot. They are perfectly smooth and feel almost moisturising. They have great application too and the colours are great for the colder months. I chose number 15 as it would be deep but subtle enough for work. I love this colour and will no doubt be wearing it for the next few months in between my other favourite for the season, Bite's Musk lipstick.
