Cooler months are ahead and it’s the perfect time to consider makeup swaps that instantly add warmth and depth to your routine for a perfect soft glow. Seamlessly transition from your dewy summer look and welcome the rich berry tones of autumn with inspiration from beauty content creator, Genevieve Seale (@thisisgenevieve_). She shows her fool-proof ways to prep the skin for a long-lasting, hydrated base before showcasing her favourite product and shade swaps to refresh your makeup for the season.

Refresh your base

Genevieve starts by prepping the skin with an ultra-hydrating moisturiser or primer such as ones from Priceline. Properly hydrated skin helps your base apply smoothly and can help keep your base looking fresh and your foundation flawless all day.

While summer may have had you reaching for a lighter skin tint or a more sheer base, in the cooler months, consider a full coverage foundation with hydrating properties. Fuller formulas not only provide a radiant finish but also increase the longevity of your makeup, withstanding the elements from morning to night. Find a range of long-wearing, hydrating formulas at Priceline to suit your skin type.

Embrace deeper tones

As summer transitions into autumn, consider updating your lipstick and blushes to complement the season’s richer palette. Instead of bright corals and sunny gold tones, opt for products in deeper berry colours, like deep reds or moody mauves. Consider Big W’s Maybelline blush to define the cheeks during the day and Kmart’s OXX or Chemist Warehouse’s MCo Beauty lipstick for evening events. These rich hues are perfect for creating that cosy yet sophisticated autumnal look which you can achieve with just two product swaps.

The high-shine glossy lip trend

This season, Genevieve suggests leaning into the 'high-shine glossy lip' trend. This warm and soft aesthetic perfectly complements the richness of autumn fashion and can be replicated to suit your features.

This makeup trend focuses on pairing rich pigment with mirror-like shine, moving beyond sheer glosses to embrace colour-packed finishes with a luminous glow. To achieve this look, Genevieve recommends applying a vibrant lipstick from Priceline to build a strong colour base and enhance the overall longevity. Then, layer a high-shine lip gloss from The Body Shop to amplify dimension and create that coveted glossy finish.
