Beauty Wishlist #1

So the whole 'blogging on a regular basis' didn't really work out seeing as I created my blog in December and we're now in April..oops! And even now, my first post isn't all that exciting, but it's a start. For the past few weeks I've been trying to save my money and now I think a good shopping trip to boots is in order. After all, the 3 for 2 offer is just too good to miss right? Plus when I was rummaging through old birthday cards I found £30, and after doing a celebratory dance, I was straight on the boots website to see what they had to offer. Here are a few things I'd like to purchase this month..
Items: Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum £10.99
Barry M Gelly High Shine Nail Paint in Green Berry £3.99
Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Lovesick £7.99
Real Techniques Stippling Brush £11.99
Urban Decay Naked Palette £36.00



Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum

After watching and reading people's reviews on this foundation I can't wait to purchase  it. At the moment my skin is very dry and dehydrated so I want a foundation that's going to glide over the dry areas which this foundation is known for doing. The gel-based formula is said to restore moisture into the skin, making it look refreshed and radiant. I've got high hopes for this one!


Barry M Gelly High Shine Paint in Green Berry

I already own a few of these gel nail polishes by Barry M and I am in love with them. The gel formula makes the nail polish glide on the nail with little effort and sets with high shine. I was roaming the boots website and stumbled across this gorgeous colour, which will no doubt be a new addition to my nail polish collection sometime very soon. I think this will look super pretty in the summer too.

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Bail Stain in Lovesick

Yes, I am very late on the band wagon for these lip products. It surprises me as much as you that I don't own any of these balm stains. I've heard people rave about these for quite some time and frankly I can see why from just the colour range. Lovesick is a lovely fuchsia pink that would look pretty all year round, especially now in spring.


Real Techniques Stippling Brush 

I already own the core collection from real techniques and love them, especially the buffing brush for foundation. In spring and summer I tend to wear a lot more cream blushes but I just haven't found the perfect brush for applying them. After seeing many people use the stippling brush and giving it good reviews it sounds like one that will be a necessity come summer time. Plus, with that 3 for 2 offer on in boots, what better time?

Urban Decay Naked Palette

Lets all take a moment to acknowledge the fact that I am the only living person on this planet who doesn't own the naked palette. I've wanted this palette for quite a while now because just look at it. The colours are all so pretty! And now, thanks to that £30 that just happened to be lingering in an old card, I think it's time to take the plunge and invest. 

Have any of you tried these products? I'd love to hear your thoughts on them!

Some more interesting posts will be coming up soon hopefully. I was thinking OOTD's, favorites and possibly a haul after next week! What do you think?
