Christmas wish list

Christmas is not too far away now, and everyone's getting excited! In today's blog post I am going to tell you what I have asked for, for Christmas. I wrote everything on a list so I don't know who is getting me what and which are going to be in my stocking. I didn't ask for anything really expensive but I do want quite a few things.

I got my friends lush bath bombs/ bubble bars that I picked out for them, each a different one that I thought they would like. When we went shopping we went to lush and they admired the bath bombs, I picked ones that they liked the look of but couldn't afford at the time.

A twenty one pilots jumper is one of the things I really want because I don't have any sweatshirts (the ones you pull over your head) and twenty one pilots is my favourite band, which is why I want some of their merch. I will post photos after Christmas, when I have received my presents.

I also asked for the benefit goof proof brow pencil. I got the mini in a previous Elle magazine edition and fell in love with the way it makes my brows look, so I'm getting a full size version. I don't have many high end products so this will be a good start to my collection.

As I'm into highlighter recently, I asked for the Makeup Revolution pro glow palette; a palette full of 8 different highlighters. It costs £10 which is a really good price, as I don't think I will ever run out or need to buy another highlight (I probably will anyway though!).

On my list I also have some things from amazon. I would love some eyeshadow blending brushes (because you can never blend too much and I want different brushes for different colours, and won't have to wash them every time I use them). I also want the dupe of the artis brushes (because tbh who can afford them) and a dupe of the clairosonic (who can afford that either).

There is also the Dan and Phil go outside book because I am a huge phan.

That is basically all the things on my "main" list but I have a list for things I want, but aren't a priority - such as Jeffree Star liquid lipsticks because I want to try them out but I know they are hard to get. Also MAC lipsticks are on there because I want to try them but not desperately.

I hope you enjoyed this! <3

One a week eyeshadow palette

I decided that to use all of my eyeshadow palettes and give them the love they deserve, I am going to use one for a week and no other. This will get me to try them out and use all the shades, I might fall in love with some that I didn't think I would like.

I don't know what order to do them in, I have 4 palettes which I want to use:
MUA undressed,
W7 in the buff,
Makeup Revolution iconic 3,
Makeup revolution fortune favours the brave.

I think that I am going to take the W7 in the buff on holiday with me, this means I literally can't use any other palette. I don't use this palette that much because I just love the MUA undressed so much.

Sorry this was another short one!!! <3

Makeup Revolution Blush Palette Review

Today I'm going to do a review (comlete with swatches!) of the makeup revolution sugar and spice blush palette. It has some really bright pink shades, along with a couple of neutrals, a shimmer and a stunning highlight. There are 3 other blush palettes but I thought that this one suited my skin tone the best. I might try some others because this one is so good and it's only £6!!!

The packaging is very sleek and black with rose gold writing. It is very shiny which means you can see fingerprints - one of the only faults I have with it. The mirror is huge and you can do your whole makeup with it, if you wanted to. The pan sizes are quite large too so you get quite a lot of product for the price. The matte blushes have a really nice, smooth texture but the shimmer ones feel a bit sandy; luckily it's mostly matte. Despite this I think that all the blushes and the highlight look good on the cheeks and they feel smooth.

The blushes swatch very well except for the highlight, however I think it was drowned out by the writing. The top row can all be everyday blushes, two nudes and one soft bubblegum pink (that can be buit up if you wanted). The highlight is very intense and has a lavander - pink undertone. The bottom row has more intense shades, I particually like the very left one which is a dark, reddish pink. There is also a coral, a dark bubblegum pink and a shimmery pink, all gorgeous shades.

Overall, I would definately check this palette out if you are interested in some bright pink shades or for the nudes. The price is very reasonable and it is well worth it.
