A Blow-Dry Brush That Saves 15 Minutes, Plus Four Fall Beauty Products We’re Loving

Navy nails return

Navy nails are back, 14 years after Cup of Jo first wrote about them. Harper’s Bazaar calls the look “a subtle statement-maker,” and the writer sees it as a playful match for fall’s preppy style.

The inky blue polish looks like a gel manicure. Joanna also swears by the brand’s cherry red polish and at-home kit, which air-dries in five minutes.

Brown shadow for evenings

The writer does not wear eyeshadow every day, but enjoys it for date nights and holiday parties. Gabby Whiten describes the season as “smoky-eye fall.” A swipe of brown shadow can add definition, and this cream formula blends easily. The writer says it also looks good on its own.

A deep berry lip

The writer reaches for a deep burgundy shade every fall, describing it as sultry and sophisticated. She says it can lift an outfit and has worn it to school meetings.

The creamy lipstick is highly pigmented and lasts for hours, including through a coffee date. Its color also stands out in holiday photos.

A brush for a blowout

Cup of Jo partnerships director Alison says friends had praised all-in-one hair tools for years before she decided to try one a few months ago. She says the brush has changed her routine and that people often compliment her hair.
