Teal Liner & Red Lips || Beauty

This a first for me but I was rather happy with my Christmas day make-up so I thought why not share it with you guys. Luckily you don't have to put up with an embarrassing video (remember those tumblr days),  so here's a quick post on how I painted my face & what products I used. 

Beauty Wishlist

1) Lime Crime - Venus palette ($42)
2) Opi Polish - Flashbulb fuchsia (£7.10)
3) Estee Lauder - Double wear foundation (£29.50) powder (£29)
4) Spectrum Collection - Brush set (£29.99)
5) Benefit - Boiing concealer (£17.50)
6) Anastasia Beverly Hills - Liquid Lips // Sad girl ($20)
7) Anastasia Beverly Hills - Liquid Lips // Vamp ($20)
8) Spectrum Collection - Brush set (£24.99)

I've finally got to a point where I'm running low on all my make-up. They always seem to run out at the same time which is never great for my bank balance but it does give me the chance to explore new items. I've been debating splashing out of a higher quality foundation set for a while and I've heard soo many great reviews on Estee Lauder. I've also added Benefit's concealer because of the great reviews too. I of course am still aiming to purchase the venus palette if it ever restocks and have found a new perfect Opi shade. I recently discovered Anastasia's liquid lips collections and I'm loving these two shades. I also discovered these brush sets recently on instagram and they are super cute. I'd love to try them out!!

Bit of a quick post but I'm off back to England tomorrow so lots to do. I have a few posts ready to post so I won't be disappearing!!

Benefit's they're real push up liner || Review

Benefit: £20

If you follow me on instagram you know I've slowly began introducing eye-liner back into my make-up routine. This meant I was in need of a quick and simple product. I'm a fan of gel liners as they are super smooth to apply but usually come in pots with brushes. I'm not the best with make-up so I really wanted a pen style eyeliner just to make life easier for myself. Everyone has been raving about benefit products and they've just realised their eye-liner so why not treat myself and give it a go? 

September/October wishlist

1)Black ankle boots (£28)

It's that season again and even though I own a bunch of black boots, they are all quite high heeled, so I really want some smaller boots. These look perfect, the heel is only four inches so I assume they will be super comfortable.

2)Silver backpack (£19.99)

I am still loving the holographic trend and I think this bag is perfect. I am dying to treat myself when I have available funds so this will be my next purchase for sure. I think it'd pull together soo many outfits and it'll be handy for travelling back and forth on day trips.

3)Necklace coat hanger (£5.95)/Stand (£9.50)

Since I'm moving and I know I won't have too much storage space I really want some small items to hang my necklaces on. I found these cute pieces on amazon, so if I can't find any in my favourite home-ware store I'm sure these will work fine.

4)Daily chalk board (£40)

I saw this chalk board on Zoella's home-ware haul and just couldn't resist it. I am super organised and love making plans and notes so I think this would be a quirky way of doing so. It's a bit pricey but I might treat myself with my birthday money.

5)Mesh shift dress (£11.49)

You guys know how much I love mesh and I think the mesh panelling on this shift dress give it a really nice look. It's in the sale right now so hopefully I can give myself a treat when I get paid. I really need some basics for my wardrobe now the season's changing and think this would be a great staple.

6)Monochrome duster coat (£24.99)

It's time to go coat shopping and I'm always super picky with my coats. I really want a monochrome or plain jacket this time round. I still have my fur jacket and my blue boyfriend jacket so I'm hoping to get a duster coat to add to my collection. I'm going to Primark soon as they have such a lovely range.

7)Benefit they're real mascara (£19.50)

I purchased the eyeliner from this collection recently and am loving it. I will be reviewing it later on this month for you guys. Since the eyeliner works so well I thought I might try the mascara too.

8)Faux septum ring (£12)

I'm too much of a wimp to get my septum pierced and I'm not one for facial piercing these days but I think Lamoda's range of faux jewellery are wonderful. But pricey for me but I may have the chance to treat myself at some point.

9)Monochrome bag (£29.99)

I love monochrome items right now and I really want to add a bag to my collection. I currently have a bunch of clutches but wanted something larger for everyday use. I think this would be great for shopping or a evening out.

This wishlist is bigger than usual but since I'm moving I'm looking for both home-ware and clothing. I thought I'd make it both my September and October wishlist as I know I'm going to be poorer than usual with my move.
