Hello! I have a wishlist post today and yes I am still attempting some sort of a spending ban, but that doesn't mean I can't think about my next shopping spree! Haha, this wishlist includes some new things out on the Aussie market and some long time lemmings. It's quite a bright one!
1. Clarins Gentle Exfoliator Brightening Toner
There has been quite a bit of hype surrounding this product recently - it is a toner with acids that gently exfoliate the skin to reveal a new, brighter layer of skin. I am close-ish to finishing my current toner (which is not Caroline Hirons approved! (even though I quite like it)) and would love to give this one a go. I have quite a bit of acne scarring and I am trying not to use such abrasive scrubs on my face!
2. Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector in Rose Shimmer
This is another cult beauty product - being boasted by many a beauty guru as the 'best lip gloss formula ever'. I have been getting quite a bit more into lipgloss since discovering those of the non-sticky variety, this one being on my wishlist for a while, but has since jumped up quite a few spots. Having swatched it instore, it feels amazing and this colour is super pretty.
3. Lush Grease Lightning
I am at the stage where I have to shake the bottle of my current spot treatment vigourously to get the product out. I have decided not to repurchase that one as I do really like trying new things, and while it worked, it wasn't particularly amazing. Grease Lightning has been claimed to do wonders for acne scarring (in terms of the pimple not leaving a scar in the first place). My skin is terrible in that department - any pimple is sure to leave a horrible dark mark.
4. The Balm Instain blush in Toile
I am a crazy blushaholic and this new formula seems super great. It is marketed as a powder stain that will last a super long time. I find that blushes don't last particularly well on me so I would love to give this one a go, and this shade is so beautiful! Also the price isn't horrible, it's going for AUD$27 compared to the US$22, so not a huge markup!
5. Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Inked in Pink
This colour seemed super popular when it was released in the US and rightly so as it is very pretty! It is a metallic pink shade that is right up my alley and I do quite like the formula of these cream shadows.
6. Maybelline Dream Pure BB cream
I haven't bought a new BB cream in quite a while but the Western offerings really haven't been tickling my fancy - and I prefer to think of them as light coverage foundations. This one garnered a rave review from Jodi over at GooRoo Beauty who first recommended the Garnier Oily/combo BB cream which I do love. The Maybelline does come in more shades so I would be interested in checking it out - but probably only when it's on sale (as with everything, haha).
7. Sally Hansen Fuzzy Coat polishes
I've been waiting for these guys! This mani over at Chalkboard nails is soo cute and really made me want these haha. These are quite dupeable to the Nails Inc Feather polishes. They consist of small bar glitters in varying shades. I'm thinking of grabbing a few from the collection :)
