beauty wishlist: april

Sleek Ink Pot, Thomas Saboo Perfume, Chanel Nail Polish, Elf Stipple Brush, Barry M Nail Paints, Gosh Face Primer, Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer & Big Fake Lash Mascara, MAC Hue Lipstick.

I've always stuck to clothing wishlists but lately i've had my eye on a lot more beauty products than clothing. I don't know what it is about the spring collections but there's not a lot of pieces appealing to me that much. Watching youtube beauty gurus is dangerous business, makes me want far too much! Also, all products in the caption are linked incase anyone didn't notice. 

The first thing i've included is the Sleek ink pot (just remembered that i've forgot to include the Sleek Contour kit, whoops!). There's a lot of mixed reviews out there on this but for £4 it's not going to break the bank if I end up not liking it. Much better than paying a fortune for MAC blacktrack anyway. Next is MAC mineralize skinfinish  natural, in desperate need of a new powder and this looks perfect minus the £17 price tag. I don't know if any of you have smelt the Thomas Sabo perfume, it's a brand new realease as far as I know and it smells amazing. I got a sample of it at the weekend and put it on for the first time this morning, i'm in love. Major rip off though simply because of who the designer is, it is Eau De Parfum rather than toilette though which is a definite plus point, Eau de toilette's are such a waste of money. Two nail varnishes at total opposite ends of the price spectrum. I'm on a little bit of a mission to collect as many Barry M's as possible and the Chanel polishes look beautiful (so overpriced for a nail polish though).  I've actually already bought the concealer after seeing every Youtuber talking about it endlessly, let's just say it's worth all the attention it gets. If you see the Elf Stipple brush back in stock please tell me, it's always sold out when I look, so frustrating when you want something that badly. 

I know that it may seem like i'm contradicting myself by including MAC products but I wasn't saying 'I hate MAC' or anything like that at all. The message was more of a 'People who buy ridiculous amounts of MAC just because of the brand name annoys me'. Anyway, are beauty wishlists something I should make into a monthly thing?

I have a love hate relationship with wishlits, I love trawling through websites finding stuff but hate having no dollar. The colection 2000 mascara is rather good though

If you find you don't like the Sleek liner, the Clinique one is really good! And its a bit less than Blacktrack.
I have the Mineralize Skinfinish Natural and its really good! It lasts for ages as well, I've had mine for about a year and a half and I havnt finished it yet. I also have Hue lipstick, its nice but it doesn't last long on your lips and isnt very moisturising. But it's a lovely colour!
