So I have been online shopping this morning and my god there are so many products I need to get my hands on! I love makeup and when I buy a new makeup product it becomes like a little part of me. It may sound strange but I have talked to other makeup obsessed gals like myself and most would agree that they are heavily attached to their collection of lipsticks or palettes. An example of my strong and kind of obsessive attachment to my makeup is when on the weekend i thought i had lost my fave Mirenesse nude lipgloss. I searched the car, my bag and then proceeded to tell my husband of how upset I was about losing this lipgloss. His response was comforting but after 3 years of marraige he is very accustomed to my weird and eccentric ways. I rang one of my girlfriends and told her how I was upset about this lipgloss and then I look down on my makeup table and it's right in front of me. Ok, some would say I need to get a life lol! But makeup is my life so when my little gorgeous bits go missing I tend to over react hehehe. When I buy a new product I also over react with glee. By the way I also love makeup brushes and have a thing for cute little Kabuki brushes. The smaller and cuter they are the better.
The first product on my wish list is Lime Crime's Coquette lipstick. Hope I have spelled that right? It's a nice nude pink lipstick and I am obsessed with nude lip colours at the moment. I use them all the time when I am doing makeup for clients as they tend to suit most skin types and look fantastic with a smokey eye. I also need to buy Lime Crime's Retrofuturist which is true red opaque lip colour that is really suited to the pin up makeup look.
Ahhh, the ever illusive Wet n Wild Gilded Age Trio Eye Palette. I don't know if I will ever be able to find one but it's on my list. Fingers crossed I will locate this gorgeous palette online some day. It's got great pigment and is long lasting and it's also those beautiful summery neutral and goldy tones I love right now. There has been alot of positive reviews on the internet for this palette. But it's so hard to find.
I follow a youtuber called 'burymeinvelvet'. She does amazing makeup work and is really fun to watch. She recently did a review of this mascara and she was really happy with it. I trust her opinion as she is has about 60 or so mascara's and is, like me, always searching for a mascara that doesn't leave crappy bits on your fingers if you touch your lashes and doesn't smear have way down your cheeks when you take your makeup off. I am definitely buying this mascara to give it a try and Australis is one of my fave brands of all time.
The NYX Round Lipstick in Circle 522 is apparently a dupe for MAC's Viva La Glam 2 lipstick. The MAC lipstick is limited edition so it can be hard to find in store and a little pricey online from places like ebay. But if you buy the Viva La Glam from MAC the proceeds of the lipstick do go to charity so it is a really good cause. But back to this NYX lippy, I really want to try this lipstick and it suits light and dark toned skin. Plus I love NYX.
I am in love with the e.l.f. blush. It is a great price and is long lasting. I really want to try the Fuschia Fushion as it is said to be a dupe for the NARS Angelika blush. I am always really pleased with e.l.f. products.
The last product I will put on my wish list for the week is the Sleek Makeup Contour Kit. It only costs around $15 and comes in light, medium and dark. It makes highlighting and contouring a breeze as it has 2 powders in the one handy little kit. I really love Sleek Makeup as they cater for every type of skin colour.
I think that does it for this week. I am going to try to buy a few things from my wish list over the week so I cross them off and try them all. Plus then I can enjoy making a new wish list. I have put some links on the bottom of my post so you can check out some of my fave sites that have some of the above products listed.
Till next time, stay gorgeous xoxox Mwah!
