My birthday is next Tuesday (July 1st) and I decided I would put together a little list of a few beauty products I have been lusting over lately and wouldn't mind receiving for my birthday *wink wink*. Let the sticky-beaking of my list commence!
1. The Balm Instain Blush in 'Houndstooth'.I have only tried Mary-Lou Manizer (see my review here) by The Balm and have heard so many positive things about the brand. I really like the sound of what this product promises and really want to get it on my face!
$26.95 AUD (5.5g) from David Jones and Adore Beauty.
2. Nars Bronzing Powder in 'Laguna'.I have just hit pan on my Benefit Hoola (see my review here) and although it is my Holy Grail bronzer, I wouldn't mind trying something new. With all the hype surrounding this bronzer it is my pick!
$55 AUD (8g) from Mecca Cosmetica and Mecca Maxima.
3. Mario Badescu Seaweed Night Cream.I have trialled a sample of this for a couple of weeks now and it is safe to say that my skin and I are loving it. I am nearly out of night cream, so needless to say I need this.
$31.95 AUD (29ml) from Kit Cosmetics and Mecca Maxima.
4. M.A.C Amplified Creme Lipstick 'Chatter Box'.I did own this, but it does seem as though I lost mine. I can only assume that it fell out of my handbag. I love it so much to brighten up my face without looking too over the top.
$36 AUD (3g) from M.A.C counters and stores.
5. M.A.C Matte Lipstick 'Please Me'.I love this color so much! I have already gone through a few of these and am about to run out of my current tube (see my review here). This is a dilemma I just don't want my lippy lips to have to deal with!
$36 AUD (3g) from M.A.C counters and stores.
6. M.A.C Frost Blush in 'Margin'.A girl can never have too much blush! I have so many matte blushes and wouldn't mind a couple shimmer based ones in my collection. I have been eyeing this one off for a while now and tried it on. I am smitten over it. It's such a nice color to wear all year round.
$41 AUD (6g) from M.A.C counters and stores.
7. Kiehl's Abyssine Eye Cream.I recently ran out of eye cream and am using samples to get through them and try to save some money. My last eye cream was fairly basic, but now I am in need as something a little stronger to look after those fine lines that are appearing with age. Happy birthday to me!
$50 AUD (14ml) from Mecca Cosmetica, Mecca Maxima, Kiehl's stores and selected Myer stores.
8. Illamasqua Matte Veil.I already own the Illamasqua Hydra Veil. It is amazing and works really well. However, I am nearly all out of it and would like to give Matte Veil a go to see how it performs on my combination skin compared to Hydra Veil (which keeps my makeup on exceptionally well, mind you).
$48 AUD (ml) from Myer.
