Christmas wishlist

Hey lovelies! I noticed that a lot of other bloggers were doing a Christmas wishlist or Christmas guide this year so I thought that I would join in the fun. Today I will be sharing with you my top picks for Christmas this year, or products that I would love to treat myself to in the near future.


1. Dermalogica Ultra Calming set
My skin has been flaring up like crazy recently and I have no idea what I have done to provoke it so on top of my list has to be this Dermalogica skincare kit because it is formulated for sensitive skin and I have heard a lot of good things about it. This is definitely an item I am saving up towards and will hopefully purchase very soon especially with my big day coming up in the next few months, my skin has to look its best!

2. Sedona Lace Midnight Lace Brush Set
I have only read glowing reviews about this Sedona Lace brush set so these have been on my wish list for a while now but since shipping is expensive from the website, I have held off purchasing them. 
[Update: I gave in to temptation and bought this set on the Black Friday sale - since they were 50% off, I decided to get the Se7ven Midnight Lace brush set as well in order to justify the $20 shipping cost. I can't wait until they arrive!]

3. Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette
As you guys know, I absolutely adore Urban Decay products and use my Naked palette pretty much every day (I don't get as much use out of the Naked 2 as I thought I would that's for sure!). I love the gorgeous rosy colours in this palette. It is also totally different to the other Naked palettes so I feel like this one will have a place in my collection come the New Year.

4. Canon SLR Digital Camera
All the beautiful photos in my blog posts have been taken by my dad's Canon 600D SLR camera. Although I am grateful that he lets me use it on a regular basis, it would be really nice to invest in my own one of these so that I can take with me whenever I please. I am currently saving up for a quality SLR camera so if you have any recommendations on which one I should get then please let me know in the comments below.

This is a super cute holiday set available at Sephora and retails at $17 USD! If only we had a Sephora in Australia, I would love to get my hands on this little set! It contains deluxe sized posietint, sunbeam and cha cha tint. I love my benetint so these would be a great addition to my collection as a little goes a long way with these little beauties.

I love a quality eye pencil and Urban Decay makes some fantastic ones - they are beautifully pigmented and glide on smoothly. If it were easier to get my hands on these little beauties, I probably would have purchased them already. 

7. Makeup Forever HD Foundation
I have heard great things about this foundation and it is one that I am planning to purchase but only after I have used up the 5 or 6 foundations that I have going at the moment.

As you guys know, I am a huge fan of neutral eye shadows so this one had to get onto my list. I love the fact that it contains 14 beautiful shades, half of which are matte and half are shimmery. I have so much makeup so I can't justify purchasing this one at the moment.

9. Lorac Pro Palette
I have read such great reviews on this palette and I have been lusting after it ever since it came out. Just like with the Smashbox one, I can't justify spending almost $70 dollars on a palette ($42 for the palette and including $25 shipping) when I have my Naked 2 that I barely use and have heaps of makeup already. I hate that I can't justify buying this baby as I really want it! I hope that it is not limited edition and is still available when I travel to Europe for our honeymoon next year - holiday purchases don't need to be justified, yay!

10. Babyliss conical curling wand
I really like the look of messy, beach hair this summer so I need a curler to give me defined waves. This babyliss one looks like it would do the job beautifully so I am planning on investing in one very soon.

What items are on your wishlist this holiday season?

    I picked up the Benefit set while over in the states and it has been such good value! They have lasted me for months and months, and still nowhere near empty. Cha Cha tint has also become my absolute fave for summer. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas! x
