Cliché: What are your beauty/fashion routines?
Michelle Orsi: My daily beauty routine is pretty simple: mascara, bronzer, and BareSkin by BareMinerals foundation. This product is so fantastic, and a little goes a long way! I love how even it makes my skin look; I don’t even need concealer! I’ve been recommending it to everyone!
Name the top three products you couldn’t live without this season.
Right now, I cannot live without my BareSkin by BareMinerals foundation (I know I sound like a broken record, but it really is that good). I have loved experimenting with statement lip colors, like hot pink, all year. And for the fall, I am obsessed with wearing the perfect berry lip. Lastly, I think an outfit is never quite complete without a great manicure. I am obsessed with Essie’s line of gel nail polishes. I have found that they stay put for at least two weeks, and the color options are gorgeous. During the summer, I was all about white manis, but for the fall, I’m all about the gray shades.
Any staple items that you think are fall must-haves? If so, why?
My staple items for fall are without a doubt booties and felt hats. Rag & Bone makes great versions of both pieces. However, if you don’t have that kind of budget, check out Sam Edelman for booties and Forever 21 for hats. Both have lots of colors & styles, so you are sure to find just what you are looking for!
