When the weather changes, our beauty-needs change along with it (*insert dramatic sigh here*). So to ensure your self care routine stays on point, we've rounded up our top beauty picks to feature in our Autumn Edit to keep you looking and feeling your absolute glowing self all season round.

Here for us babes down in the Southern hemisphere, April means transitioning from Spring to Autumn. This adjustment can have us all embracing a particular cozy-chic aesthetic. From burgundy lipstick shades, hair colour glow ups to cashmere tops, fluffy coats, to snippets of sunshine and crunchy leaves just hitting different, there's a lot of beauty in Autumn.

But this cooler time can also bring on not so gorg realities, like dried out, dehydrated skin, flakiness, dull hair, unruly frizz, the list can go on. So this is why it's important to adjust our routines, in order to thrive throughout the cooler seasons. And together, here is how we’re going to embrace change this Autumn:

For achieving hair goals

Now, unfortunately for vast majority of us we can't relate to the Kardashian lifestyle of having our hairdressers live in house with us. Whilst we can always book an appointment with our fav stylists at Oz Hair & Beauty every now and then for a refresh, this is not a long term solution. But the good news is there are many products out there that will make maintaining glossy, gorgeous hair a whole lot easier.

Also works incredibly in the cooler months as it is formulated with ultra-fine rice starches, that help instantly absorb oil, leaving a silky, just-left-the-salon feel.
