2016 Beauty Wishlist

Hey guys, so I thought I'd give you guys a little beauty wish list for 2016. I'm hoping I can get my hands on the majority of these beauties this year!

First on my list is this beauty, Hourglass' Ambient Lighting Power Edit £65. This is limited edition so I might not be able to get my hands on it, although it's first on my shopping list when I next get paid. This palette is all you need to finish, brighten, contour and highlight your skin. I've had my eye on this for ages, but have never had the spare money to purchase it. This palette has everything, to create the perfect iconic look. I cannot wait to see the difference this palette can make to my look. This is almost like a fainter contour palette, it's got all the right shades to highlight the cheeks, nose & cupids bow & contour the cheekbones & forehead, without the harshness of colour.

Next on my list is Anastasia Beverly Hills Illuminator £28 in Starlight & So Hollywood. Unfortunately, So Hollywood seems to be sold out everywhere, but hopefully I'll be able to get my hands on it once it's back. So Hollywood is a true gold shade & Starlight is a white gold shade. These highlighters look absolutely amazing & I've watched a lot of tutorials where youtubers have featured this product. I'm going through a bit of an obsession with highlighters at the minute, I just can't get enough (as you'll be able to tell from this wish list).

I'm also really lusting over Mac's Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolour £21. There's a few shades I would purchase in this liquid lipcolour, they're just such wearable colours. Personally my favourites are: LadyBeGood - a warm midtone nude, Back in Vogue - a peachy nude, Dance with Me - a deep cranberry red, High Drama - a deep dark plum & Oh, Lady - a deep wine. Now as I'm not a pink lipstick girl, the majority of the shades I wouldn't be able to wear, but I'm really loving the nudes & deep shades.

Another highlighter, obviously.. Laura Geller Baked Gelato Swirl Illuminator £21. The tones are just so gorgeous, it's so hard to choose between the two, so why not get both? Well, that's my view anyway. They really need to stop making highlighters look so beautiful to save my poor bank account! Ballerina is a dusky, rose gold & Gilded Honey is a subtle, copper bronze. This products is known for its wearable buttery texture to accentuate your favourite features.

Now if you read my previous post, of the brands I want to try in 2016, you'll know Gerard Cosmetics was one of them, if you missed it, you can read it here. At £9.50 their Ultra Matte Liquid Lipstick are reasonably priced & with 11 shades to choose from, there's one for everyone! The shades I'm obsessing over are: Aphrodite, Ecstasy, Cher & Serenity. There's a mixture of nudes, pinks, reds & Purples. 

So there's a few bits I'm hoping to spend my money on this year. If any of you have any reviews on these products please leave a comment below with a link. I'd love to read your stuff.

Thank you so much for reading.

Brands I Want To Try In 2016

Hey Everyone. I'm finally back & I have to apologise for my break, but I've just had so much going on. But now it's 2016 (how crazy is that??), I'm going to take my blog more seriously & post every Monday & Thursday. There may be a post in between these days, it depends how much time I have. 

I've set myself some goals for 2016, & also written a list of brands I want to try this upcoming year. 

Becca Cosmetics 

This is a brand I've been lusting over for a while, but have never sat down to actually ordering anything. The main thing I really want to try Becca for is their highlighters. I've read so many good reviews & I really want to get my hands on their champagne pop highlighter which was done in a collaboration with Jaclyn Hill. Becca Cosmetics can be purchased from SpaceNK & Cult Beauty in the UK. 

Hourglass

Again, another brand I've been meaning to try for ages. The one product I'm hoping to get my hands on very soon is their Ambient Lighting Edit Palette, I've seen so many images of it, it looks insane. I'm now going through a new craze for liquid lipsticks, (I literally want them all) so I really want to try Hourglass' liquid lipstick in the shade 'Icon'. 

Anastasia Beverly Hills

Ok, so I admit, this isn't a brand new brand to me.. It's actually my 'go to' brand for brow products (you can read about my 'go to' brands here). But after recently purchasing their 'Self-made' palette, I've fallen in love with the brand all over again. It's really made me want to try more of their products. For example, Glow Kit, Illuminators, Contour Kit, Liquid lipsticks... the list could go on.

Gerard Cosmetics 

This brand is a bit more reasonably priced. As my obsession of liquid lipsticks continues to grow, I came across this brand. They charge around £9.50 per lipstick with a good range of shades. I have seen a few Instagram images of this brand but have never really taken any notice of it until now... And I'm glad I have! 

Charlotte Tilbury
Of course this brand is on list, who wouldn't want her gorgeous products on their dressing table. Not only are her products adorable, I've heard they're of amazing quality. I'm a really big fan of her lipstick shades, they're not too in your face. Although her products can be pricey, I'm sure they'll be making an appearance on my blog soon. 

There we have it, the brands I'm dying to try this year. I am going to make this happen! 
Thank you so much for being so patient with my blog.

What are some of your brands that you can't wait to try??
