2018 Wishlist

I like to create these wishlists at the beginning of the year as it helps me limit my spending to what I really want. Due to where I am going this year, it will be my first time in a Sephora, so I wanted to make sure I had a list so I don't just buy the whole store. Moreover, I think it's just nice for people to see what others want so they can maybe try it as well. So let's get into the good part, the makeup!


Fenty Beauty glossybomb and highlight duo.


Fenty Beauty foundation in 100.




Fenty Beauty Primer.


Fenty Beauty match stix in porcelain.




Fenty Beauty match stix 
trio in 100.

Harrods Mac palette.































Huda Beauty
foundation in
Milkshake.

                                                                Touch Sol No poreblem primer.

Here are the products I'm lusting over, if you have had any of these and enjoyed them then, please leave a comment on your opinion of it.

At Home Lash Extensions


I have seen a rise in interest in Lash Extensions as they are a semi-permanent alternative to fake lashes. Usually you have to get them done professionally at a salon. My mum is qualified to apply these lashes, so I saw these before I saw fake lashes. My mum had done them once on me for a school performance and loved them, it made wearing no makeup look a lot more put together. Over the summer, I started wearing fake strip lashes, and my mum said "Well why don't you use my salon glue and have them as semi-permanent ones instead?". So the next time I went down to Boots I looked out for induvidual lashes as I thought they would look more natural and I could customise the length for different occasions. 


So the supplies you need are either strip lashes {some of my favourites are the Ardell ones} or induvidual lashes { Eyleure are my favourite ones and the ones I am wearing in these photos}. The most important part of this is the glue { I use a semi-permanent one from Sally's beauty supplies}. 


You just need a little glue and apply them directly at the root of the lash so it looks natural and blended. Apply the smaller lashes at the inner corner to the middle of the eye. Now slowly put the medium length lashes on top of the middle ones and out to the outer corner. If you feel you need more of a whispy and dramatic look you can apply the longest ones on the outer corner and blend them into the eye.


When you want them to be removed you can either get the remover from the supply store or you can use and oil you have spare. I usually just use olive oil on a cotton round then a cotton bud.
