Some of these things will make your fall wardrobe, and others will break your fall budget. Today, I will be looking at the seasons hottest new makeup....some of which you may NEED and others you just WANT.NARS Pure Matte Lipstick $25 - Saks 5th Avenue www.saks.comThis brand-new super rich, ultra pigmented lipstick provides bold, long-lasting color without drying out the lips.

Vitamins A, C, E, and K, work with cucumber and aloe to moisturize, tighten skin, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and dark circles.VERDICT - NEED!Whether you have had a long night out, or just need that extra lift...this concealer is a must-have for fall!LANCOME Aquatique Waterproof Eye Colour Base $24.50 Lancome www.lancome-usa.comThis eyeshadow primer leaves eyes perfectly primed to keep eyeshadow firmly in place all day (or all night).VERDICT -

Beautenizer Fiberwig LX $24 - Sephora Stores www.sephora.comThis second-generation Fiberwig brush on false lash boasts "film-coating" technology for a more natural look, even than traditional mascara and the added bonus of vitamin B5, silk extract, and natural botanicals for a healthier lash.VERDICT - NEED!I was very skeptical at first, as brush on falsies tend to be clumpy and messy, but after using this product, I am convinced. Not only is it a great quality mascara, but it really does extend the lash with a completely natural look. I won't go as far as to say they are as dramatic as false lashes, but instead a booster for your own, natural lashes!
