Autumn Beauty Wish List

Hey everyone! So I was thinking, will I do a monthly set of wishlists or will I just do one to last me until December time, and I thought - I'm not rich enough to buy everything I'd like so I'll just do a seasonal one. So here we are, a beauty wishlist. We've got make-up, skin care and even some body products in here. So without further rambling lets see whats on my list. 

Huda Beauty Desert Dusk Palette, £56
When I first saw this palette, I instantly fell in love. It looks absolutely stunning, its different enough from the Rose Gold palette that I can justify owning both of them - although I definitely don't need any more eye shadow palettes. I adore the Rose Gold palette, and I can't wait till I can get my hands on this one too. 

Kate Somerville EradiKate Acne Treatment, $26
After watching Jamie Genevieve talk about this in her recent Sephora haul I knew I wanted to try it. Its basically just a spot treatment, but Jamie recommended it as it reduces the redness of a spot or gets rid of it completely overnight. Winner Winner. I'm not sure we can get hold of it in the UK so I'll just have to order from Sephora. 

Bumble and Bumble While You Sleep Overnight Damage Repair Masque, £40
I noticed this hair mask on the Bumble and Bumble website recently, and although the price is pretty steep - its actually much higher than I'd ever pay for a hair product, I cant help but want to try it. My hair has taken a beating over the years and I'd pay good money to have my hair in better condition - cause even regular hair cuts ain't keeping the split ends at bay no more. 

Too Faced Melted Latex Liquified Lipstick in Unicorn Tears, £19
I recently got an email from Too Faced that advertised this product, and I instantly fell in love. I've heard absolutely nothing about these lipsticks - although I love the original melted ones - the colour though just looked to pretty to not want to try it! 

Drunk Elephant T.L.C Sukari Baby Facial, $80
Another product from Sephora that I saw on Jamie's video is the Drunk Elephant Baby Facial - I don't use a lot of skin care stuff and I tend to stick to what I know but recently my skin texture has gotten a bit weird and I have a lot of redness and uneven bits, so I'd like to give this a whirl and see what it does for me. 

Fresh Rose Deep Hydration Facial Toner, £35
I'd seen a review of this on Lily's blog, the skin care benefits from this product sound amazing and the packaging looks so pretty too. It's expensive, thats for sure but if it helps my skin I'd honestly happily pay for it. 

Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipstick in Caramelized, $24
Again this is a product I'd seen on Jamie's YouTube, and it looked so pretty on her so I'd like to give it a try. 

Arbonne Shea Butter Body Wash
The last two products I'd like to get - and will soon - are from Arbonne. Most people probably won't have heard of them but they're vegan and cruelty free and pretty much mostly natural and botanical. I'm recently part of the Arbonne company, so in honour of all disclosure thats why I'm adding these in here. I'm wanting to try them so I can learn about what I'm a part of. My mums friend has been using Arbonne for a long time now and she swears by their products, so I'm super excited to try the products I've already ordered. 

Arbonne Rescue & Renew Detox Mask
Final product on the wish list is the Arbonne Rescue and Renew Detox Mask. This mask sounds amazing, its filled with french pink clay, rosemary oil and many many many other amazing skin benefiting ingredients.

October Wishlist

Urban Outfitters Pins & Needles Lace Bottom Jumper £42 
I saw this the other day whilst scrolling through the Urban Outfitters page, it was the only thing that caught my eye and I'm definitely considering buying it. Might go into the store first to try it on first to make sure it definitely fits. 

Oval Brush set £19.99
For awhile now I've wanted to try an oval brush of sorts, and I saw this set on a girls youtube, she basically did a video reviewing these in full and for the money it seemed like a really good choice. 

Neom Tranquillity Intensive Skin Treatment Candle £36
Ages ago, and I'm talking ages ago, I saw these reviewed on a blog. I don't know why I still haven't tried one of these yet, but I'm determined to buy myself one in the near future. They smell amazing and seem like they would be great for your skin. 

Disney Art of Belle Limited Edition Lithographs £25
I've become somewhat of a Disney addict recently. I've got a couple of prints that are Disney related and I'd love to get more to add to my collection. Hopefully I can get these and frame them to add to the gallery wall that I've got planned in my head. These Belle prints look stunning and as Beauty and the Beast is one of my favourites, its only fitting that I get this set. 

Urban Outfitters Octagon Mirror £34.30
When I bought my floor cushion from Urban Outfitters I was so close to buying this, I didn't  quite know where I was going to put it. I need to sort out my back room, the room which I take blog photos, film videos and study, then maybe when I do I'll buy this. 

ASOS Only Short Parka £35
My mum told me that the UK is going to have a crazy bad winter, so a new warm winter jacket is needed. I saw this one - along with a couple others that were a little more boring looking - whilst looking online a couple weeks back. I like the colour of this and it seems like a great way of brightening up a outfit. 

Eeyore Soft Toy £14.95
Again. I love Disney. I wanted to get a Eeyore toy whilst in Disneyland Paris but they were all very baby looking ones, but I had a cuddle of this little guy in the Disney store and I fell in love. Eeyore would look very fitting sat next to Stitch and Lotso. 

Peppa Penny Prints prices for these vary, but theres so many I'd love to get. 
I think I'm going to put an order in for a few of these soon to go on my gallery wall idea. They seem very sweet and reasonably priced, especially considering they'll be shipped from Australia. 

Whats on your wishlist? What do you think I should buy next? 

Wish List

I bought myself a few things this month - nothing overly extravagant though as I was needing to put most of my money into savings for Rome, where I'll be be for 5 nights in 5 days time! 

NARS One Shocking Moment Cheek Palette £45
This has been on my wish list for a very long time - I'm really hoping to get my hands on this before it stops being sold - its just got such a good variety of shades to pick from.

Ted Baker Crosshatch Bag £160 ish
I can't find the one I've linked in the UK but this style of bag is something I've been after for a wee while, that or a Michael Kors Selma bag - but the Ted Baker is a bit more reasonably priced...

Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Palette £40
For Christmas I was given the amazing Vice 4 palette but I'm dying to get my hands on the Gwen Stefani one! The colours in it are just something else completely! 

Crosley Cruiser Record Player £100
I've wanted a record player for the longest time, and the briefcase style ones are my favourite. I love the colour of this rose gold one - I've seen some for cheaper than this one, but if I'm honest I'm quite picky with what colour I get... 

Button Down Skirt
Button down skirts are something I've been seeing lots of recently - and I've fallen for them. They look so nice and like they would be fairly easy to style. 

Hair Clips
I've recently given my hair the chop and I'm looking to find new ways to style my hair. These wee clips look  super cute in the hair, I love the look of this one from Urban Outfitters too! Although I don't know if I could ever pull off the cat clip.. 

What are you lusting after? 

Christmas Wishlist | Clothing and Tech

This is my second Christmas Wishlist, and my last. This is a much higher value wish list for the most part and is more or less a "if I was rich" list. 

CALIMESSA ANKLE BOOTS £125
I've been eyeing up these boots for awhile and online they are being sold for £61.90. They come in tan, grey and black, and they all look stunning! I love Levi jeans, and my leather jacket from Levi's is my fave. These shoes or a really nice pair of sturdy but comfy Chelsea boots would be so ideal for me as I literally only ever wear my converse, puma suede's or nike's. 

Nike Pro Floral Fade Training Tights £90
I would never expect anyone to pay this much for a pair of work out leggings for me, I'd never do it and wouldnt expect nor want anyone to do buy them for me. I included them in the wishlist though because they are stunning and if they ever go in the sale or I get a discount code then I'd maybe consider buying them. Minkpink do a really nice bright pair for £45 on Urban Outfitters, and obviously you can get student discount, so I think these ones are much more likely for me to get. 

Crosley Cruiser Record Player £69.99
I've fancied a record player for awhile, I've literally no space in my room for one but I still want one. I've also no idea what records I'd want, but hey I'd figure that out later. I love the Turquoise one and the mint one. For whatever reason the mint one only appears to be available on Urban Outfitters and they charge £100 for their record players... Pretty steep for something I don't have the room for. This is definitely a "when I move out I'll buy" type thing.

Calvin Klein Jeans Black Sweatshirt £90
My boyfriend first pointed this out to me, I think if it hadn't been for the price I'd have bought it right away. It was so soft and felt really cosy. If I can get extra hours in work this will be getting bought in the new year. Would be nice if I had this before I went to Rome in February... 

ASOS Oversized Square Scarf In 70s Check £18
This is actually something I only saw recently, but I've been wanting a big cool looking scarf for awhile now. Glasgow is getting crazy cold and a scarf is definitely going to become a staple in my daily outfits, so a pretty one would be great. 

Canon 24mm f/2.8 STM Lens £129
Amazon sell this lens for a lot less than it retails for, as on the page it says that its been reduced from £179.99! Lens's are expensive, but I'm really really wanting to get a new one. The 24mm seems like the best one and more or less the best value for money one... I was looking at the 40mm and the 35mm; but the 40mm didnt seem wide enough and the 35mm was just waaaay to expensive for me atm. A new lens is another thing I'd quite like to get before I go to Rome. 

ASOS Open Crescent Hair Clip £5
This is just a wee cheap thing that I quite fancy. I like pinning the sides of my hair back, and this would just be a nicer way of doing it than with a bunch of curby grips. They do other designs of this and if I'm honest I quite like them all... 

Ted Baker Crosshatch Shopper With Printed Detachable Pouch £169
I've been in the market for a really good quality bag for awhile now, all my bags are getting quite ratty looking, and again this is one of those things I'd die to have but wouldn't want someone to pay this much for one thing on me. Its just too much. They do a purple version of this bag too, but I think I prefer this one just a tiny bit more. I'll see how much money I have after Christmas and then decided if I want to splurge a little and buy this for myself. 

Anything you've been hoping Santa will bring you? 

Christmas Wishlist | Beauty Edition

I thought for this year I'd do a few gift guides, outfit posts and wishlist or two - starting this year with a wishlist. I love Christmas, like I absolutely love it! I'm not a morning person, but every year, guaranteed, I'll be up before 8am - sometimes waking up at 6... I'm told every year to not bother trying to get everyone up till at least 8, and if they don't have a cup of tea and some toast then they will point blank refuse to get up. 
I'm much more a giver for Christmas, like obviously I like getting presents but I adore giving people presents that I know (at least I hope I know) that they'll like. I'd much rather get presents than money, but at the same time I hate asking for things, silly me. So heres a wishlist of a few things that I'd hope to be under my tree this year. Or that I'll buy in the Christmas sales. So here we go! 

I've realised there's a fair few beauty items and a few non-beauty items that I've got my eye on this year, so I'll have another wish list up possibly at some point soon. 

NARS Steven Klein One Shocking Moment Cheek Studio Palette £49
Oh dear lord. When I first saw this palette I might have drooled a little, I just found it so pretty. I don't usually get hung up over limited edition items, but I really really really want this palette. Its almost a need for me now. The palette contains my favourite bronzer, the Laguna bronzer, along with a fair few other beautiful shades. I'd be very very happy if I received this but even if I don't I'd happily get it for myself. 

NARS Steven Klein Magnificent Obsession Cool Red Lip Set £29
I really seem to have fallen for the Steven Klein collection, and these are only a couple of the things I want from the collection, because realistically I'd happily have all the sets and all the other Steven Klein colours that are part of the collection. The Magnificent Obsession set looks so nice: I love a red lip and a set that has a lipstick, liner and lip pencil in the most beautiful red shade is right up my street. I believe the lipstick is full sized while the other two are minis, but even so £29 is  such a good price for a set like this. 

Urban Decay Vice 4 Palette £43
Oh boy, never have I wanted an eye shadow palette more than I want this one. My want for this was set in stone though after having a wee play about with the colours. The shades are just so beautiful, so pigmented and buttery. The palette looks so versatile having both everyday shades and very bright party season shades. I'm a bit annoyed though because they've also announced the Gwen Stefanni palette and IT LOOKS SO FRECKING GOOD! Why you have to release so many things I want?! 

Illamasqua Broken Gold £18.50
Suzie from Hello October used this in a video (you can see her use it here) and I fell in love instantly with it. I bought one from Urban Decay that I thought would be quite like this but I just can't seem to get on with it, so I'd love to get my hands on this - would be great for a Christmas make-up look. 

Laura Mercier Sweet Temptations Crème Brûlée Duet £35
Every year I look at the Laura Mercier sets, and for whatever reason I don't buy them. Even in the Christmas sets where more often than not they end up being half price! This year though I've decided I'm getting one. I'd rather get them in the sale for cheaper, than get it as a gift, but at the same time imagine I couldn't get it in the sale and missed out again. I'd be gutted. The honey bath smells so good and I feel like I need it in my life. I love all things honey scented, so this fits me well. 

Zoeva Classic Brush Set £52
The Zoeva brush sets are so hyped, I'd love a set but they are a fair price to fork out but I imagine they would be so worth it! The Classic Brush set has 8 brushes in it, 3 face brushes and 5 eye brushes. Their Luxe Prime Set is £69 and comes with 10 brushes, again with only 3 of them being face brushes. For an extra £17 two brushes extra to some would seem like a great price, since mac brushes cost around £20 for just one brush! While others might think £17 for two extra is steep. It just depends on what you'd want to spend. 
If a budget wasn't an issue for my friends and family I'd be bold and ask for the Luxe Complete Set - it costs £99, so I definitely wouldn't be asking this to be under my tree till someone won the lottery or got the biggest promotion of their lives. It has 15 brushes in the set, 11 eye brushes and 4 face brushes. Their sets really do seem to focus on eye brushes, that doesn't bother me as I'm really looking to get some brilliant eye brushes for my small horde. 

What kind of things are you wishing for Christmas this year? 

Highend Wishlist

So I started making a little wishlist post and by the time I had finished it I realised that everything I had added to it was on the pricey side. So yah, high end wishlist.
Two of these things aren't available in the UK - or at least I don't think they are - Marc Jacobs make-up. Their Style Eye-Con No.7 palette in 206 and basically any of their blushes. They look super pretty - Marc Jacobs bring your make-up line here!
I really want to try one of Smashboxes eyeshadow palettes - either their Full exposure palette or their Fade to Black one. The Full Exposure palette is £36 and looks like it would be so so so good.
Three things from Estee Lauder. One of their Pure Colour blushes - purely because the packaging looks beautiful. And their Double Wear Foundation, I don't know the difference between the bottle and the tube so I added them both.
NARS Adult Content Blush Palette. £30. 4 Blushes. I need this now. Dior Fusion Mono eyeshadow, I don't know why but I want one - but I do.
Origins face mask - don't care what one, I just know I want to try one and I also really want Ginzing moisturiser.

Wish List #2

Hello one and all, I was going to do a Christmas wish list - but I couldn't really think of things I wanted for then. So I thought I would do myself a little wish list and what I buy can get taken off my Christmas List.

Nike Running Tights
I've been wanting to get into running for so long, and I've wanted to get some nice thick running tights for winter for awhile. Hopefully the ones I want come back into stock soon so I can get into running before it gets overly cold.

Origins Mask Marvels Set
I want to try out some face masks from Origins and what better way than to buy a set and get to try a couple.

Mark Hill Wicked Waver
I really only want this because it looks really cool. Simple as that, I've not seen many reviews so I don't know what its like - but y'know YOLO.

Urban Decay Razor Sharp Finishing Powder
I've had this before and I loved it so much! I couldn't find it for the longest time, but now its back! And I must have my hands on it!

NARS A/W Palette
Give me this please. Need I say why I want this beautiful palette?

Nike Running Shoes
To go with my new running tights, ofc. The trainers I have aren't the best, so new ones are needed.

Debenhams Chelsea Boots
Pretty shoes, so pretty. Don't cha just love a pretty boot. I've been looking for a nice Chelsea boot for awhile now - this fits the bill prefectly.

Wish List

So yes, I may be on a bit of a spending ban, and yes I don't particularly need these products. But, hey I've been drooling lovingly over them for months and I thought I would share my little list with you. This is just a very small part of my list, but these are the ones at the top of it.

1. The Enrapture Amplify Jumbo waver Hair Styler. I feel like I should first mention how jumbo this actually is. When I first saw it in Boots I was genuinely shocked. Its bloody massive. I wasn't actually sure if all my hair would fit in it, but I quickly got rid of any worries. Its £39.99 currently in Boots and I really really really want it. It will probably be the first thing I buy once my spending ban is done - or maybe even slightly before....

2. Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum. Now this is something I've never really been interested in, until very recently. I really want to know what all the fuss is about. Why do people love it so much? What is so special about it? I need these questions answered and what better way to find out than buying it and trying it?

3. Origins GinZing Energy Boosting Moisturiser. I tried this once. It was glorious. The smell. The texture. It is brilliant and as soon as I have enough points on my Boots card I am going to buy it! Make my face beautiful please.

4. Daniel Sandler Watercolour Blush.  I've been looking at these for ages, I always get so close to buying it then chicken out at the last minute. I want to find a blusher that I will love forever and ever, and from what I've heard about these - then this may be exactly what I'm after.

5. The Balm Nude'tude eye shadow palette. I've really been getting into eye shadow recently and I'm wanting to get myself a few palettes before I dive right in and buy myself an Urban Decay one. I've seen so many bloggers talk about this and all I want is to look at the beautiful colours and have them in my collection!

6. Lord & Berry Lip Pencil. All I'm going to say about this is I love a good lip pencil and this looks like it really could be a brilliant one. Other products I've tried from Lord & Berry have been so good. Need to get my hands on this.

7. Benefit Stay Flawless 15 Hour Primer. At £24.90, the price is definitely what has put me off buying this. I really want this so my make-up will stay on my face - I've tried other primers, nothing seems to work.  People have said this is like a magnet for your make-up, so hopefully when I finally man up and buy it, I will be incredibly impressed.

Have you tried any of these, what did you think of them?

What is on your wishlist?
