January Beauty Wishlist

Hello Lovelies!

I've been trying to come up with some new blog post ideas and I know that I really want to add in some more beauty related posts. So I think I want to start doing a monthly beauty wishlist. I want to share with you some of the new products that I'm loving and lusting over!

So here's what I'm loving this month!

Brazilian Bum Bum Set

I actually tested the moisturizer last month while I was in Sephora and I can't quit thinking about it! It smelled so GOOD and a little goes a long way, I could smell it on the back of my hand for hours! I like this little set because it has a lip balm and my lips are always chapped no matter what. I'm definitely ordering this next payday if I have enough money!

Benefit POREfessional Face Primer

While we were in Ulta my best friend showed me this and I tested it on the back of my hand and fell in love! It's so soft and I really wanna buy some and see how it does with my foundation! If I don't like it I'll give her the rest. I've only tried a face primer once before, but it was a drugstore primer and it failed to impress.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette

This is one of those palettes where I thought it was pretty online, but when I saw it in store I fell in love. I have a birthday coming up, so one can dream, and I'm dreaming of this palette!

tarte Rainforest of the Sea Palette

I love a good neutral palette and the colors in this one are so pretty and it looks like it would be easy to travel with.

tarte PRO Glow Highlight & Contour Palette

I really need to invest in more face products, I don't own any highlight or contour products, but I really want to learn. I feel like the colors in this palette would be perfect for me!

Clinique Moisture Surge Overnight Mask

I've actually tried a sample of this mask and I love it. I do think the name is a little misleading though, because if you wanted to you could use this as a normal moisturizer. I even wore this under makeup and loved the way it felt. I definitely want to buy the full size because during the winter my combo/oily skin tends to get dry on my upper cheeks.

Too Faced Sweet Peach Eye Shadow Palette

The only Too Faced product I've used is their mascara, I haven't tried any off their eye-shadows, but this one is really pretty.

Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium

I have a sample of this and I'm in love!

What's on your beauty wishlist? Anything you think I would like? What products do you recommend for contouring beginners?

Let me know below!

Netflix TAG

Hello lovelies!

Today I will be doing the Netflix TAG! I've been seeing this tag a lot recently and I decided I wanted to join in on the fun!

So here it is!

All Time Favorite

Pretty Little Liars
I love me some PLL, I've watched every single episode of the show and I recently decided I wanted to watch it from the beginning.

Currently Addiction

Gossip Girl!
I started watching Gossip Girl in January and I'm addicted, I never watched it when it was airing on TV and so it's been lots of fun being able to do marathons of it and not having to wait till the next week to see what happens!

Wishlist

Flight 29 Down, Sonny With A Chance, Cinderella, Beauty & the Beast, Snow White, How The Grinch Stole Christmas, The Hunger Games, THG: Mockingjay Part 1 (Yes I know it's not even available on DVD yet, I just really wanna see it)!

Pet Peeve

I hate that I can no longer watch Netflix everyday! We recently switched internet providers to a satellite internet and they didn't tell us till after we signed a 2 year contract that I can't use Netflix! #NotImpresssed

Marathon Essentials

Pillow, fuzzy blanket, chocolate, heating pad, water, and either chips or popcorn.

You Should Watch

The Lying Game, Tyler Perry's Temptation, Grace Unplugged, Gilmore Girls, PLL.

I nominate all of you, if you do this tag, leave your links below, I would love to read them!

Holiday Beauty Wishlist

Hey y'all, with the holidays just around the corner, it's time to start making our wishlists and deciding what we want. Usually every year when someone asks me what I want I always say, "I don't know". The truth is it doesn't take much to make me happy, you could buy me a jar of pickles and I would love you forever, or even a pair of fuzzy socks!

Instead of saying "I  don't know what I want" this year, I decided to make a wishlist that way when people start asking I actually have an answer!

It Cosmetics Limited Edition Holiday Naturally Pretty Celebration Matte Palette $42.00
This eyeshadow palette is #1 on my Christmas wishlist, I LOVE it! I'm not a fan of shimmer or glitter nail polished, so I really love that this palette has all matte colors!

Clinique Wear Everywhere Neutrals All About Shadow 8-Pan Palette $36.00
I'm kind of conflicted on this one, I love the colors in this Clinique Greys Palette, but two of the colors are a soft shimmer and two are a super shimmer, I love the matte colors, I'm just not sure if I really want it or not.

Too Faced Natural Eye Neutral Eye Shadow Collection $36.00
If I had to choose between the Clnique palette and this Too Faced palette I would probably choose the Too Faced. It still has shimmery colors, but the colors are in a color palette I could wear everyday, so I think I would get more use out of it.

Mario Badescu Special Mask for Oily Skin $18.00
Recently my skin has been going crazy, I don't know what's going on, but it's out of control. I have super sensitive oily skin so it's hard to find products that I'm not allergic to. Because my skin is so sensitive I don't even own any facial masks. I've been wanting to try one and I found this one by Mario Badescu for oily skin, it's supposed to prevent pimples and blackheads, and control build-up and surface oils.
 I think I'm going to buy this. If you've tried it please let me know below if I should buy it, I would really appreciate your feedback!

NARS Satin Lip Pencil in Luxembourg $25.00
I actually don't own any red lipstick, I usually just wear lipbalm so I don't have many lip products. A few months ago Taylor Swift mentioned that this is the lipstick she uses, I love this color and I love the way it looks, I'm really interested in buying it, Taylor also mentioned Dragon Girl, it's a little brighter so I'm not too sure about it, but I really do love the Luxembourg.

Essie Nail Polish in Power Clutch $8.50
I really love the color of this nail polish, it's in the color Power Clutch and it's a cream formula

Tarte Amazonian Clay BB Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 20 $36.00
I'm also looking for a new Foundation/BB Cream, I'm taking my Senior pictures soon and I want something to cover the redness on my cheeks. I like that this one has a higher SPF, but that could also be a problem if my photographer uses a flash!

Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Full Coverage Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 15 $36.00
I first heard about this product from my favorite YouTube Beauty guru, MakupByTiffanyD, I've watched her videos for years and she's never steered me wrong, so after I saw her Review and Demo of this foundation I knew I wanted to try it, she also tried their powder foundation, but I don't think I want to try the powder.
I still haven't decided if I'm buying the foundation or the BB Cream, but I would love to have your opinion on it!

Renee Roulea Bio Calm Repair Masque $52.00
Renee Roulea first came to my attention when I was about 13, I sometimes get cystic acne and Renee has an Anti-Cysts Treatment product that is apparently the best damn thing in the world. At the time I was 13 and couldn't justify spending $41.50 for 15ml, now that I'm 17 I probably would, but I don't really get cysts that often anymore, so thankfully I no longer need it.

Renee is also well known for her celebrity clients, including Demi Lovato!

However, as I mentioned above my skin has been going crazy lately and I'm in the market for a new face mask, I saw this Bio Calm Repair Masque on Renee's website and now I'm struggling not to pull out my bank card and buy it. On top of being a face mask, it can also be used to heal burns and post-workout redness, pluss they don't test on animals, this product sounds amazing and I really want to get my hands on it. IF Santa brought it to me I'd never complain ever again!

Freeman Charcoal & Black Sugar Facial Polishing Mask $3.99
Again, like I've said above twice already my skin is going crazy and I need some new products. I think I'm going to start with this mask and see how it goes from there. This mask has a lot of amazing reviews and it's less than $5.00!

If you have any recommendations based on the above items that you think I would like please let me know, I love finding new beauty items. See anything you like? Let me know below!

Fall Beauty Wishlist

Hello lovelies, today I decided to share with you my Fall Beauty Wishlist! I recently cleaned out my makeup collection so I'm in need of a lot! I also threw in a few nail polishes that I just couldn't leave out! Enjoy!

Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette
Urban Decay Naked 2 Basics Palette
The Urban Decay Naked Basics palettes have been on my wishlist for a while now, I've just been trying to decide which one I want more.

L'Oreal True Match Super Blendable Foundation
I've been in search of a good foundation for a while, I don't have much experience with L'Oreal products, but this foundation has a lot of amazing reviews, so I think I'm going to try it out and see how it goes.

Clinique A Black Honey Affair Eyeshadow Palette
Earlier this year Clinique came out with a more neutral eyeshadow palette, I really wanted to buy it, but it didn't have many matte colors, so I decided not to get it. I'm still not 100% sure I want to buy this one, but I decided to share it anyway.

Formula X Celestials Nail Polish

Formula X New Neutrals Nail Polish
I've been wanting to try the Formula X for about a year now, my favorite YouTube beauty guru (MakeupbyTiffanyD)  was obsessed with them and ever since then I've been trying to decide where to start. I think I'm going to buy the New Neutrals, it's such a beautiful color and I know I'll get a lot of use out of it!

Rimmel London Scandal Eyes Waterproof Kohl Eyeliner in Nude
Rimmel London Scandal Eyes Waterproof Eyeliner in Black
I cannot say enough good things about these eyeliners, they are amazing! I'm not joking when I say that if you don't have one you need to get one ASAP!!!
So far I've only tried the black, but I've heard a lot of great things about the Nude color so I want to get that. I also want to buy an extra black to have, I just opened one, but I don't like using the same eyeliner on my lid and water lines, earlier this year I got an eye infection from my makeup, so I'm trying to be careful and keep everything sanitary.

Urban Decay Naked3 Palette

I love the colors in this palette, I love the Rosey-tone and I think it's my favorite out of all the naked palettes, so I really want to get it!

So that's all for today, I hope you enjoyed it! Based on what you see above what would you recommend I check out this Fall? I'm always on the lookout for new makeup, so I'd love to see your suggestions!

XoXo,

Lori
