Today's Wish List post (see other Wish list posts here) is a fashion one. It's been a while since I had shared a fashion collage so it is about time. This collage is an outfit my favourite pieces of clothing all from the site http://www.brandboudoir.com/.

♥ January Makeup Wish List

January Makeup Wish list



Collage by me. Pics from Google, Sleek.co.uk, Harrods.co.uk & Inglot.com

1. Glam Glow Youth Mud Mask: You might have read my review on this here, but that was just a sample- and I'd love to buy "the real thing" :) However, I'm guessing it's quite pricey so I might just make a DIY version myself, and show it on my blog.

2. Chanel Les Four Ombres Quadra Eyeshadow Raffinement: I am not a high end girl, but the purple shade in this just caught my eyes. How gorgeous is this?! I could imagine creating loads of nice looks with the shades in this.

3. Sleek Face Form Contouring Kit: Saw this in a blog and I knew I had to get this, at some point. You might have heard me raving on about a rose gold blush from ELF, the only blush I ever use and like. So the blush along with a contouring & highlighting shade is just too perfect! Love it.

4 INGLOT Round Eyeshadow Palette: The more I experience with makeup looks the more I crave some high quality but affordable eyeshadows. I have a 5 shadow freedom palette from INGLOT already and would love one of these round shadow palettes- & the shades in this picture are gorgeous!

5. YSL Rouge Pur Couture The Mats: Lipstick shade 204 Rouge Scandal. Again I am not a high end girl but this packaging is gorgeous and so is the shade! I've really been looking for a dark red lipstick lately.

See my other wish lists here.

Do you own any of these products?
& What's on your current wish list?

♥ Beauty Wishlist Xmas Edition

It's been a while since I posted a wish list on my blog. To be honest it's only down to being lazy and not being bothered to edit and everything.

1. Real Techniques setting brush: Because I love RT brushes. I would love to try this one for contouring. Mentioned here.

2. Curls Coconut Sublime Conditioner: Another favourite brand, their hair products smell amazing and I love them. Mentioned here.

3. Apple Ipad Mini White: I've been meaning to buy an iPad for years, only reason I haven't is because I am too stingy. I recently decided to buy the iPad mini to read books (lol) and blogs, when it came out but it kept being out of stock. I've now decided to buy driving lessons instead, but to buy the iPad when I pass my test! Woo :)

4. DHC- Deep Cleansing Oil: From the bbloggersxmas event goodie bag. We got the small size, and oh my I love this. It is in fact a water soluble oil that cleans off all makeup perfectly. Review to come. See the goodie bag here

5. Murad Pomegranate Exfoliating Face Mask: Another goodie from the bbloggersxmas event (link above). I got two sachets of this product. It turns out there is no full size product but in fact a full pack containing- sachets  Personally I think that is completely stupid since a sachets last for 3-4 uses, and you have to keep one open and try to store it in a way so that it won't spill in the mean time. Okey enough about that- I loove this. I've been wanting to try a face mask that exfoliates by using various acids and fruit extract, which is exactly what this one does. A few people have had a burning feeling from using this, but I had no issues at all.

6. Tiana Organic Fairtrade Extra Virgin Coconut Oil: Since trying "real" coconut oil (cold pressed, and expensive lol!), I am soo hooked. I've been using Coconut oil for ages (a cheap refined one) but this is truly the real deal. It smells heavenly.



What is on your current beauty wishlist?

♥ Neal's Yard & Remedies Face Wishlist





Neal's Yard & Remedies Face Pamper Wish List

Neal's Yard & Remedies Organic Face Wipes (get them here)- I was so excited to see these on NYR Facebook page yesterday, that I just had to make this little collage straight away. Made with organic cotton and a ton of calming ingredients like Aloe Vera, Camomille, Lavender and more. Personally I wouldn't have mind if they put some more oils in there since oils clean makeup the best. But they probably didn't because some people seem to mind oil in their face.

Neal's Yard & Remedies Kabuki Brush (get it here)- Well in my dream world I'll buy this too to use with the foundation I DONT actually have, lol. Synthetic animal free bristles (love synthetic brushes since trying Real Techniques brushes), bamboo handles & super fine for a professional finish.

Neal's Yard & Remedies Palmarosa Purifying Facial Mask (get it here)- A puryifying clay mask containing Raspberry extract, Hemp Oil, Aloe Vera powder and many more great ingredients.

Neal's Yard & Remedies Dark Cool Mineral Foundation (get it here)- A mineral foundation like no other I'd like to say. Not only is it a mineral foundation but it is filled with nourishing ingredients like Shea Butter & Almond Oil. I haven't tried it because it's a bit pricey. However I have the bronzer and I love that so next time I decide to splurge, I'll get it.


What's your favourite organic brand? I love NYR especially now that they do makeup too :)

♥ High Street Vs. High End.- Make up Collage

HIGH END OR HIGH STREET? I put together two collages of makeup items I thought I'd love to have this autumn. The first one is with high end, more expensive products. And the next one are with really cheap and affordable products!

High End, CHANEL, YSL, SMASHBOX, LIZ EARLE...



.. or High Street, KIKO, BARRY M, RIMMEL & MUA?




I haven't tried these items personally but I would love to try them. I am so hooked on purple lips for the autumn, not sure why since I don't even have a purple lipstick.

Which set of products do you prefer?

♥ Bargain Wish List

I think it might be time to place my first ELF, Eyes Lips and Face order soon! I have been meaning to order their brushes for quite a while, but when I finally decided to do so, the brushes were out of stock and since then I haven't thought of it. However, I've found a few more things I'd like to try out and I put together a little collage.

Also, as you might have read in my previous post (the intense eye liner makeup), I'm in serious need of a matte brown eyeshadow, and other neutrals. Bargain hunter as I am I've got my eyes on these ones from MUA.




Have you got any of these & what do you think of these two bargain brands?
Any other suggestions..?

♥ Organic Make up Range

Hi Everyone! I was going to post this a couple of days ago, but then I got some of the make up and thought I might as well wait 'til I review it. I have the lipgloss, an eyeshadow and a lip liner. They contain loads of amazing ingredients such as Castor Oil, Hemp Oil, Avocado Oil, Shea Butter and Seaweed extract.

But I'm so excited to share it that I made this collage anyway :)

It's Neal's Yard and Remedies and they have extended their make up range to include lipgloss, eyeshadows, eyeliners, brushes, bronzers and blusher.You can find them here.




I am a bit of an ingredient freak but I actually don't know much about mineral make up. These are of course free from mineral oils, silicones, parabens.. and also Talc. Correct me if I am wrong but isn't that in most mineral make up? I googled it and apparently it is not good for you, I actually didn't know that.

What do you think of organic make up?
Is it necessary or over the top & will you try it?
