Beauty Wishlist


I cant believe this is only the second beauty wishlist i've posted on my blog, believe me its not because i haven't had a list of new beauty products i want, my list is never ending!
This is my current list of products I'm lusting after at the moment, i expect there is more i've forgotten but these are ones i would like to treat myself to soon as Imo dying to try them.

1- Mac Powder Blush £18
Im desperate to try a Mac blush, after trying and loving their lipsticks and Mineralized Skinfinish I'm eager to branch out and try more. I've heard good things about their blushers and i think well dressed, a light pretty pink blush would be a good place to start.

2- Lime Crime Lipstick Babette £12.50
Who wouldn't have a Lime Crime lipstick on their wishlist? For a start how amazing is the packaging, its has unicorns on!! Now if that isn't enough to make you want something the gorgeous array of multicolored pastel shades sure will. Babette is a peachy nude shade thats just so pretty i need it in my collection.

3- Macadamia Natural Oil Healing Treatment £23.95
I love hair oils, its down to them i credit my hair finally growing past that in-between length.
I've tried a fair few but the next on my list is the Macadamia oil, i've heard countless rave reviews on it and I'm dying to try it out for myself.

4- Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette £50
The Ambient Lighting Palette may be on the pricey side but considering they retail at £38 individually the palette is good value for money. I've seen so many bloggers and You Tubers use and love it, it looks like it gives such a pretty finish to the skin, i really want to test it out for myself.

5- Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow Promade in Blonde £15
Im really interested to see what this is like, I'm starting to get into my brows more now and want to try something new. I've read so many good reviews I'm sure I'm going to love it too.

6- Glam Glow SuperMud Clearing Treatment £34.00
I have been wanting to try this ever since Shaaanxo reviewed it, the pictures of what looked like all the grime being sucked out of her pores was fascinating. With my oily skin clogged pores can be problem for me so I'm interested to see if this is as good as it looks.

7- Mac Lipstick in Morange £15
Yes I'm lusting after another Mac lipstick! I cant ever see myself being content with having enough there is always going to be a new shade that i need in my life. Top of my list right now is Morrange, orange lips are a massive Spring/Summer beauty trend and Morange is just the perfect orange when pay day comes it will be mine!

I hope you enjoyed reading about what  beauty products are on my wishlist, have you tried any of them? What's on your wishlist?




Spring Summer 2014 makeup Trends

28 March 2014


Orange lips are a huge trend for SS 2014, they were seen all over the runways and many celebs have been rocking them on the red carpet and events. Wether you go brave with a vivid bold orange or apricot,  or slightly safer with an orange/red, orange is definitely the colour your lips want to be seen in, and the great thing is it really does flatter all skin tones. This look is best paired with minimal makeup keep it simple and let the lips do the talking.

Dramatic liner is not a trend for the feint hearted, the look is all about bold angular shapes like a more modern day 60s liner look, with black lines along the lashline and above the crease. If like me you haven't yet perfected the art of a basic cat eye then these graphic arty liner looks may seem a little scary, maybe just try a slightly thicker line or more exaggerated wing than usual for a slightly bolder look or even drag the line up to the crease to outline the outer v.

The Spring/Summer runways were awash with blue lids, perhaps not the easiest trend to pull off in everyday life but definitely a striking one. Although blue eyeshadow does slightly alarm me and bring back memories of some of the brightly colored looks we once rocked in our school days i really do like it, if you want to be brave and give it a shot go for a bold block of colour or if you want to try a safer option apply it around the top and bottom lashline almost like a liner. Work this bold eye look with peachy/coral cheeks and either nude or peachy lips.

The barely there, natural look is just so pretty and fresh looking, for me it's just the epitome of Spring/Sumer makeup.
Now we all no that although we all wish that natural barely there look could be achieved with a couple of products in reality it still seems to require a gazilion different things!
This look is all about looking healthy, fresh and glowing, for the base a BB or CC cream would work well or a light foundation that will give you a your skin but better look. A light dusting of bronzer to give a healthy glow, and a cream highlighter applied to areas that catch the light will make the skin look luminous and radiant. Finish the look of with pink blush to give a natural flush to the cheeks, a couple of coats of mascara and a slick of a nude or pink lipstick or gloss.

I hope you enjoyed this post, what is your favorite SS 2014 makeup trend?
