Christmas Wishlist

With christmas approaching I have been thinking of what I would like to receive this christmas so I thought I'd share some of the things I'm lusting over at the moment. I'm not going to lie some of these itsems will most likely be presents to myself from myself. 



Boohoo Sequin Black Dress Been on the look out for the perfect New Years Eve dress and I think I have found it! Love a good sequin dress around christmas/new years time. 

Soap and glory Well I'll Be Glammed I love soap and glory and will be happy if I receive any of their gift sets but this one has lots of full size products which I love. 

Public Desire Lace Up Black Heels I'm in need of some new going out heels to wear boxing day and new years, I'm loving the lace up heels at the moment. I will probably fall and break my neck in these but they are so pretty I need them in my life. 

Ariana Grande Perfume I haven't actually smelt this perfume but the packaging is so cute and I love Ariana. 

Zoeva Rose Gold Eye Set I've been wanting some Zoeva brushes for so long now and I love the Black and Rose gold sets. 

Mary-lou Manizer Highligher This product is so hyped up and I am yet to try it.

Kiko Velvet Mat Satin Lipstick 600 Nude Beige


As soon as I heard about how the new Kiko store in meadowhall had opened I had to go and get some things! Unfortunately most of the things I wanted weren't in stock so I ended up just buying a lipstick, I will definitely have to make an online order very soon. I picked up this lipstick mainly because the packaging is to die for, obviously I had to purchase a nude shade as they are my favourite so I went with the lightest nude of the range which is 600 Nude Beige.


Nude Beige is a classic light warm nude colour. The formula of this lipstick I would describe as a creamy satin formula. It is very light and creamy, definitely not matte. The packaging has to be the nicest lipstick packaging I have ever come across. It's a beautiful sleek gold colour and you press down on the bullet to release the lipstick.

Makeup Geek Haul

Makeup geek finally came to the UK last week when it was launched on the beautybay website, luckily I managed to get some eyeshadows before they sold out. This is my first time purchasing anything from makeup geek so I decided to get 5 eyeshadows to start with. I was expecting good things from these after seeing all the hype online about them but I am still so overly impressed, the pigmentation of these is unreal. I'm so happy I finally have some shadows to put in my lilac Z-palette.



From left to right: Whimsical, Blacklight, Corrupt, Beaches and Cream, Frappe. 

Whimsical (foiled) is a light silvery pink with a foiled finish, Can't wait to use this. 

Blacklight (duo chrome) is a duochrome eyeshadow which reflects purple and blue. 

Corrupt is a very intense matte black, the blackest black eyeshadow on the market I believe. 

Beaches and Cream is a creamy matte natural beige with a hint of peach, perfect as a transition shade.

Frappe is a medium brown shade perfect for warming up the crease.

Top 5 Drugstore Makeup Products

As my current posts on my blog seem to be more focused on high end makeup I thought It'd be a fab idea to do a post about my favourite "drugstore" cheap and cheerful makeup products, because we all love a good bargain don't we? 


Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation -
This is one of my all time favourite foundations as no other foundation makes my skin look as amazing as this does. I bought it after watching quite a few of That Pommie Girl's makeup tutorials on youtube and seeing how gorgeous it looked on her and I wasn't disappointed. I have it in shades 54 beige and 52 vanilla.


Makeup Revolution Pro Illuminate-
This is literally the best highlighter I own, it's even replaced MAC soft and gentle. I'm not sure if this is a product Makeup Revolution sell all the time, but I purchased it in a christmas set from superdrug which was £10 and comes with 3 brushes (which are also AMAZING) and a bronzer/powder duo. I would definitely recommend picking it up.


LA Girl Pro Concealer 'Creamy Beige' -
This concealer isn't available in UK drugstores but I thought I would include it since you can get it very cheap on ebay with free shipping. I love this, it's very comparable to MAC pro longwear.


Maybelline Lipstick 'Tantilizing Taupe'-
My go-to lipstick if I can't decide what lippy to go for, I just apply some nude lipliner and whack this on over the top and I'm good to go.

Essence Waterproof Liquid Ink Eyeliner -
Best liquid eyeliner I've used and I am a big liquid liner fan, the brush makes it very easy to apply and it's soooo black. I purchased this from wilko I think that's the only place in the UK that stocks essence at the moment.
