Hi everyone,
Over the last few days I have been in
a real shopping mood! This mood seems to come and go every so often but I quite
regularly find myself just wanting to buy everything that I see, especially if
it is beauty related. I have bought so much already in the last couple of
months so I have decided to try and control my spending by creating a wish list
instead of actually putting the things into my basket!
1) Hourglass
Veil Mineral Primer £52
Why couldn’t I be lusting after
something a bit cheaper?? This primer is super pricey but is raved about by so many
people that I just can’t wait to give it a try. I really wish I had bought this
in America now when I saw it for slightly cheaper but I was in the middle of
that guilt stage you feel after spending loads when you really shouldn’t, so put
it back!
2) Hourglass
Veil Fluid Makeup £50
To go with the primer I also really
want to try the Hourglass foundation. I haven’t heard as much about this as the
primer but when I tested it in Sephora I loved the feel of it and it looked
really lovely on the skin. I just don’t know if I can justify over £100 on the
two!
3) Revlon
ColourStay Gel Envy Long Wear Nail Enamel £6.99
Something that’s a bit more in my
price range is the new gel effect nail polishes from Revlon. The coloured
polish is meant to combine a base coat and colour into one so you can skip out
the base coat step. This is then followed by a top coat that provides the gel
like finish. I am a bit sceptical of these as I have yet to come across a ‘gel
like’ polish that does the same, or gives the same effect, as an actual gel but
I am intrigued and will definitely have to try them out.
4) Orofluido
Hair Beauty Elixir £19.95
I absolutely love Moroccan Oil and use
it consistently as part of my hair care routine. However, my current bottle has
almost run out so I am thinking of trying something new for a change and to mix
things up so my hair doesn’t get too used to one product. I first discovered
Orofluido oil when my hairdresser used it on me and I did really like the way
my hair felt afterwards so this could be a strong contender.
5) Estée
Lauder Bronze Goddess Shimmering Body Oil £25.50
I'm thinking of ditching the fake tan
and embracing my pale skin as it is just such a hassle for me using fake tan
every day and I always end up with some patchiness or orange splodge somewhere.
I did see this though and think it might be great to spritz on and give me skin
a subtle shimmer, plus is smells divine!
6) Crème
De La Mer Lip Balm £42
Another ridiculously expensive product
which is why this is on my wish list and not a haul! I don’t think I will ever
actually buy this product as I’m sure there are cheaper alternatives that work
just as well but a girl can dream!
What do you guys think of the products
on my wish list? Have you tried any and would you recommend them?
Thanks for reading,

Ooh I agree, The Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer does sound amazing x
ReplyDeleteI agree that the HourGlass primer is raved about throughout the beauty world but I honestly can't justify the price. :-(

@beautyqueenuk I'm so tempted to get it but the price is just ridiculous! Maybe it's one for my Xmas list haha x
ReplyDelete@Shireen L. Platt The price is what really puts me off too, especially when there's others that are much much cheaper and are really good as well x
