Hello!
So, i'm a jobless 16 year old. Which means that i can't afford the 'high end' makeup.
There's so much expensive makeup out there that i'm craving so, i thought i'd do a post on my top 10 most wanted high end makeup products. In other words, 'My High End Makeup Wish List'. haha. hope you enjoy :)
1. The first item is the Urban Decay Naked Basics palette. I've wanted this since it came out, and i was SO very close to buying it when it was on offer at Debenhams during christmas time. (i really wish i did!) This palette would be perfect for me to carry around in my bag, and i can also use one of the shades for my eyebrows. I like the idea of this palette so much as it has such basic colours that you can really work with to create a basic BUT gorgeous eye. And i am really one for matt eyeshadows, i do like shimmer but most of the time i do just like to use matt only as i think it has a more dramatic effect in some cases.
This retails for £20.00 (At debenhams)
2.The next item is Nars Sheer Glow foundation. This foundation is highly craved about on YouTube and by it being so loved by many of my favourite youtubers (Zoella, BeautyCrush etc) it really makes me want this foundation so i can try it and i can see what all the hype is about and also being i'd LOVE to own Zoella's favourite foundation (as sad as that sounds haha.)
And to be honest, i'm not much of a huge foundation buyer as i hate to buy something and not like it, but for this foundation i'm literally craving it as it seems so amazing by so many YouTubes, and i do trust what these YouTubers are saying! so i know i won't be disappointed (and if i am, i will be very very annoyed. haha)
This retails for £30.50 (Nars official website)
3.Number 3 on my list is the ever so loved and hyped up about, Urban Decay Naked 2 palette. I'm going to be honest with you, i really want this palette because literally everyone on youtube owns it. And i really want to be part of the love share for this product! i really love eyeshadows, and this palette looks perfect and i'm incredibly jealous by anybody that has it. I know MUA do a dupe for this, but i want the real thing (haha. i do have the dupe for naked 1 palette though.) I really want to be able to experiment with all them lovely colours and create different eye looks from day to day.
This retails for £39.00 (Debenhams)
4.The next thing is the Hoola bronzer by Benefit. There's not much to say about this one to be honest. I just really want to have the hoola bronzer. People i know love it and recommend and i want to try it out.
This retails for £23.50 (Debenhams)
5.Number 5. This is the Deep Throat/Laguna Blush- Bronzer Duo by nars. What can i say about this? (apart from the disgusting name haha) but again, this is HIGHLY hyped up about. I really want to try this because i think the colour 'Deep Throat' is a perfect colour for my complexion and i really would love to try the Laguna bronzer, mainly because i'm experimenting with many different bronzers atm and i'd love to compare that bronzer to my cheaper, drugstore ones. But this bronzer is highly craved about and i want to take on board of what i've been missing.
This retails for £30.00 (Nars official website)
6. The 6th product is the studio finish SPF 35 concealer. I've basically wanted this concealer for the longest time ever. I've tried it out at MAC and it's so creamy, lightweight, blends well and covers well. I'm not too sure of why i haven't bought it yet but i know for sure that i will purchase this very soon. I really need to step out of my concealer comfort zone as the only concealer i use and repurchase is the collection ultimate wear concealer so i need to get this MAC one for a change and because i know it already works well for me. I really do wish i bought this when it was cheaper as it has gone up in price.. but i will still buy it, eventually :)
This retails for £15.00 (MAC official website)
7.Mac blusher in 'Pink Swoon' is my 7th choice. This blusher is literally beautiful. I really love my bright blushers and this one really is so pigmented and vibrate in colour. I've tried this out at a MAC store but unfortunately i didn't get it.. i wish i did. It's such a gorgeous bright pink that would last me for YEARS. As because it's so pigmented you'd only need the smallest bit. I first came across this blusher on Leannewoodfull on YouTube (check her out if you haven't!) And because she's pale like me i believed her opinion and i trusted her thoughts on it, which really persuaded me to give it a go, as i said previously i didn't actually end up buying it but i really, truly wish i did. It's gorgeous!
This retails for £18.00 (MAC official website)
8.The 8th product is another foundation. It's the MAC face and body foundation. I don't really tend to go for heavy coverage foundation, i prefer lightweight and i think this foundation fits that category nicely. I want to try this as i've never tried a water based foundation; meaning that its very watery. I think this foundation would be perfect for the hot weather months as it's light and it'll be like nothing is on your face, as i'm someone that can never leave the house without foundation. I do think this would be perfect for summer especially. I was persuaded even more to buy this foundation from Gracie (Uglyfaceofbeauty) because her review and opinions made me make up my mind. I will buy this foundation soon (Christmas time hopefully!)
This retails for £21.50- 50 ml & £27.00- 120 ml (MAC official website)
9.I feel like most of these products are MAC haha. but the 9th product is the solo eyeshadow in 'charcoal brown' i want this eyeshadow as a single shadow not in a pan because i want to use this colour for my eyebrows. I've seen Zoe (Zoella) and Tanya (Tanya Burr) use this colour for their eyebrows and it looks amazing. I'm currently using 'Brun' and i think that's a bit too dark and this colour looks perfect.
This retails for £12.50 (MAC official website)
10. Last but not least, i'd really love to buy the MAC mineralize skinfinish natural. There's not too much to say about this one, but i really want to invest into a good powder as i've heard this powder really does last a long time and is worth the money. I don't like powder in general because i have dry skin But I've heard this powder is different from others, that it doesn't cake or flake and is a nice powder to use.
This retails for £22.00 (MAC official website)
I hope this post was interesting to any of you and i hope you enjoyed reading!
