October Wishlist

It's that time of the month again and I've a list the length of my arm full of beauty items that I want. A girl can wish, but can't always afford hey! *Sob* I've been keeping lists of things I want the past month and I would love to put them all in one big wishlist, but it'd be too much! So I've picked a handful of products to put into this post. I hope you see something that takes your fancy! 

1.Urban Decay | Naked Basics Palette

I've wanted one of the Urban Decay Naked palettes for as long as I can remember, but I can't afford one being on a crappy budget. So the naked basics palette seems to be the easiest way out for me, and the shades are perfect. You can go quite plain and neutral or you can go smokey with the colours that are in it. This would be perfect for travelling, which I do a lot of lately!

2. Real Techniques | Powder Brush

I've built up quite a big collection of Real Techniques brushes over the last two years. I've been on the hunt for a good powder brush because the one I have has gone a bit too shabby to be honest. When I seen the Real Techniques one I decided I have to get it!

3. Real Techniques | Blush Brush

I know this is a 'blush brush', but I actually want to get this and try it out as another powder brush! It's so big and fluffy, I think it'd be perfect for powder. I don't wear a lot of blush so I don't think this one would ever be an actual blush brush for me. Although, never say never!

4. Lee Stafford | Treatment For Hair That Never Grows Past A Certain Length

What can I even say? I've wanted this treatment for so long and I've not bought it yet! Why not, Leanne?! The next time Boots have their '3 for 2' offer back on the Lee Stafford range, I'm going to be all over this. I've gone beyond wanting it now. I've seen far too many good reviews to pass it by again.

5. Benefit | They're Real Mascara

I'm all for my Maybelline Falsies and I've never really ventured out very far with mascaras. I have seen so many reviews about this mascara and the hype amongst the beauty blogger world has been absolutely crazy, I think I've definitely been persuaded enough to get it!

6. NYX | Jumbo Eye Pencil | 604 Milk

I think everyone needs a NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in the shade Milk. It's the perfect product for making bright eyeshadows pop or any colour for that matter. Coming up to Halloween I think this would be a great purchase!

7. Hydraluron | Moisture Booster

I've generally quite oily to combination skin, but I went for a facial a while back and they told me that my skin was oily in areas but also really dehydrated in those areas. Which shocked me, because I moisturise all the time! Since then, I've stopped using harsh products on my face, even in oily areas. I wanted something to boost my skin and give it plenty of hydration, so when I seen a few reviews about this I decided this will be one of the products I'm going to go for!

What's on your wishlist this month? Do any of these products take your fancy? 

Have you got any of these already?

The Top 5 Products I've Been Wanting!

Hey everyone!

Today I said I'll do a quick post! The top 5 products on my 'to-get ASAP list'. As I stated in my last post, I am creating a HUGE wishlist page and that's almost done too.. Kind of.. I'M GETTING THERE!! I also felt I needed to write a new blog post for you guys because I've been lacking, super badly! I'm not even going to get into it as I've said it in previous posts. I am truly sorry though, I will try and blog more, I keep starting and then just sitting and staring at a blank screen. It's annoying! Anyways, moving on. I'm just going to get straight into it!

LUSH | Lemony Flutter Cuticle Butter

The first product I want is from LUSH! As you may or may not know, I'm a big nail care/painting geek. This is the LUSH cuticle butter! Supposedly it's amazing! And that, I will have to see for myself! I have recently been addicted to LUSH products, I love their staff but obviously, I love their shop too! This cuticle butter is on my to-get list as of now! Can't wait to try it out!

LUSH | Handy Gurugu Hand Cream

Another LUSH product I've been eyeing up is the Handy Gurugu Hand Cream! Coming into winter I think a good ol' hand cream is in need! But it's also essential for me as I'm doing a hairdressing course at the moment so my hands will be in water and also touching many chemicals over the coming weeks, so hand cream is essential for me. I am planning on getting a travel size hand cream as well as this but haven't made my mind up yet on what I want. Maybe I'll try get this into a little squirty bottle. Hmm.

Toni&Guy | Casual Sea Salt Texturising Spray

The next product is from Toni&Guy and it's hair related! I honestly don't get much hair related products, but I really should start, my hair does my head in and I just feel like ripping it out sometimes! I have long hair and it's just so frustrating, but I could never get it cut short, I'd be way too scared. Anyways, I  found this texturising spray while looking through some blogs and once I seen it, I checked out some reviews! I get the feeling this product isn't exactly what I expect, but hey! I'm still going to buy&try!

Models Own | Hed Kandi Hedonist

I recently bought Models Own Beach Party and I was totally over the moon with it, so I went back to Boots to nab some more Models Own polishes. I tried this one on my nail and I fell in love with it! It's so bright and beautiful on the nails. To my horror though, they had only one left and it was opened and had nail polish all on the lid and stuff, I wasn't paying almost €8 for a used nail polish, no way. I asked the girl and she said they had no more left. So it's off to a different Boots I go, to try and pick this up!

Real Techniques | Powder Brush

The last item I want is the Real Techniques Powder Brush. I have already got their Starter Set, their Core Collection set and their Stippling Brush! I absolutely love the quality of their brushes and I'm definitely going to get more. Eventually I'll have the lot! The only downfall of these brushes is the price. I can only get them in Boots and they are a lot dearer than they are on the Real Techniques site, which is very, very annoying! If anyone knows of any other shops I can get these brushes in for smaller prices, please let me know! 

So there you have it! The top 5 products I really want to buy, pretty soon!
Have you got any of these products?
Would you tell me to stay away from any of these?
Leave any questions or comments down below! I love to hear from you guys!

Another Beauty Wishlist

Hello world! I hope you're all well! 

I was in such a blogging mood this week after recovering from being totally ill, I made a few blog posts and scheduled them. So therefore, MORE POSTS! Yay!

I decided to do a wishlist, actually three, maybe. Because I made three different lists of things I wanted in three different categories. Makeup, Clothes and Nail Art Accessories. So I've chose to do a makeup/skincare wishlist as a blog post to share with you all! I'll just get straight into it I guess.

Boots | Glycerin and Rosewater Toner

I've actually been looking for a toner for my face for ages now! I seen this on a YouTube beauty guru the other day and she was ranting and raving about it. I really want to try it! Plus it's a Boots brand, but you'd hardly notice it seeing as the icon is so tiny. It's £2.32, around €3, so not so bad! They also have a spritz spray but I think I'll try this one first.

Johnson's | Baby Oil

For the brushes that I own (though I am planning on buying a full set soon!), I started cleaning them with oil as it makes them so soft! I also want to use it for nail care AND hair care. You can use baby oil for a lot of things. I think I'd buy the 100ml, rather than the 500ml and see how long I get out of it before realizing I need the 500ml. In Boots this is £1.20 so it'd be around €1.50. You can pick these up in various pound shops as well though!

Johnson's | Baby Shampoo

This is the same price as the baby oil, and I'll also be using it for cleaning my makeup brushes! It's 100ml as well, and you can get it in 300ml too! I find the small travel sizes are handy for carrying around, if I was to go on holidays or anything these sizes are perfect! (Obviously Leanne, 'travel' size?)

Soap & Glory | Sugar Crush | Body Scrub

Even though this stuff looks nasty, really nasty.. I've heard endless reviews about it and how amazing it is! I don't ever use body scrubs, but I know if I buy this I'll probably never stop using them. Boots actually have a 3 for 2 sale on selected bath products and seeing as I really want to try this I might buy it along with some other random bits and bobs. This is £8 in Boots so probably €10! I hope I get it before the 3 for 2 offer ends because I really am keen to try some other Soap & Glory products.

Bourjois | Magic Nail Polish Remover

There has been SO much hype about this new invention of sticking your finger in a hole (of sponge covered in nail varnish remover, thanks very much!) and getting rid of all your nail varnish from your nail in 1second (obviously dramatic, I'd say about 5seconds at least! Do feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.) As soon as I heard about it I had to get it, so Boots here I come! In Boots it's £4.99 so about €6 for me. Unless I can find it in a pound shop, which a LOT of people are saying they have got lately. The one in the pound shops is called 'Twist & Out'.

Miners Cosmetics | Lipstick | Matte Effect Wonderland

I seen a fellow blogger, Tor, blog about Miners and I fell in love with the brand straight away! It's kind of like Essence and is a cheaper brand, yet still has amazing quality products! This red colour looks gorgeous and it's only £3.99, about €5 for me. That's a great price for such a beautiful colour.

Miners Cosmetics | Lipstick | Matte Effect Fiesta

This pink, is another colour from Miners lipstick range that I looooove. I'm in awe with this new (to me) brand and I'm absolutely dying to try out their products! This lipstick is also £3.99. I find this great that they're this price, as I don't wear too much lipstick because I always think it doesn't suit me. So instead of spending almost €20 on a MAC lipstick, I think it's way better to lose a fiver.

I'm also on the hunt for a brush set. I can't afford any of these €100 sets right now, I don't even have a job. I seen a few sets around town on the markets, but I'm too scared to buy them to be honest. There was one guy selling the whole Bobbi Brown brush range for €35. I was so close to buying it, then said no because if I was ripped of I'd go crazy and most possibly hurt him. Hehe. There was also a brush set for €20 in La Chica, in Dublin. But again, I'm afraid to buy it. I know eventually I'll give in and buy one or the other, but until then, let me know if you guys know any cheap ones I can buy, around Ireland.

Edited just before publishing: I was asking you guys on Twitter if you knew of any brush sets that are cheap yet good quality. A lot of people mentioned 'Real Techniques'. I made the decision that even though these brushes are dear-ish. I'm going to get them anyways. They're worth the price I suppose as they are real and if I look after them, I'll have them a long time. I'm planning on getting two sets which are on sale in Boots. Buy one get one half price! The 'Core Collection' and the 'Starter Set' It's going to cost me about €45 at the most, but I can't wait!

L-Core Collection & R-Starter Set

Last but certainly not least, I'm still looking for a neutral eye shadow palette. In which, I will be purchasing very, very soon. I am going to try get a brush set first though, so I can use it? Haha. 


What do you think of these products? Have you tried them before? Will you be trying them soon?

My Wishlist

I've been wanting a lot of products lately so I decided to make a post on some of them. I wish I could win the lotto and just buy them all! This list ranges from makeup products, to nail polish, to skincare products.

MAC | Lady Danger Lipstick. (Around €18)

The colour of this lipstick is just amazing! I love its brightness. It's definitely on my wishlist this summer.

Bobbi Brown | Basic Brush Collection. (Around €140)

I've really been needing a basic brush kit, as I have brushes all over the place in my house. I don't think I'd spend this much money on a brush set, not yet anyways. Does anyone know any cheaper sets you can get, with good quality?

Models Own | Coral Reef. (Around €4)

I've never tried Models Own nail polish, and I really am keen to. I loved this colour straight away and I'm definitely going to get it this summer.

Models Own | Ibiza Mix - Hed Kandi! (€4)

I love this glitter polish from models own too, and am dying to try it on top of loads of different colours!

Topshop | Nails In Easy Breezy. (Around €6)

I've heard many great reviews about Topshop's nail polish, and when I scanned through their site the first colour I was attracted to was this one. It's a summery colour and I'm going to have to try this soon!

Sleek | Storm I-Divine Palette. (€8)

I really only wear neutral tones on my eyes as I'm not a big eye shadow fan. So this would be the best palette for me. I am dying to experiment and this palette for just €8 is a bargain!

LUSH | BB Seaweed Face Mask. (Around €7)

I've seen great reviews about this product and I am curious to try it myself. I want to know does it live up to the reviews. I love lush products and I'm really hoping to try this soon!

So this is just a small list of products I want to try. I'm going to try do a wishlist maybe once or twice a month, just to see what products you guys think I should avoid and ones I should definitely try out. 

What do you think of that idea?
