June *Drugstore* Wishlist

I have incredibly sensitive skin, so when it comes to purchasing new products I am VERY selective. I do a ton of research- reviewing ingredient lists to see if this would even come close to being compatible with my skin. Which usually leads to a wishlist, and this one is drugstore affordable!

1. Maybelline- The Smokes palette: 12 shadows in the palette- most in the dark smokey range. There's a few colors that absolutely caught my eye, so I am on the search for this. It was release some time ago, and now near impossible to find. I've bid on a few through Ebay, but no success yet. Now, I *did* but The Blushed Nudes and only mildly satisfied (pigmentation issues). So why buy this one?? Well, I do NOT wear dark colors, so if this has the same formula and pigmentation issues... This could be potentially useful for me. Price (average): $12-18 on Ebay

2. Garnier Fructis- Root Amp: I am a sucker for root pumpers. I have a short, asymmetrical, stacked hair cut, and root pump is a MUST. Currently, I use a high end brand and not a fan of the cost. I've always had good results with Garnier and totally excited for this new volume line. Price: $4.29 Fancy details here.

3. Revlon Matte Lipstick in Pink Pout: The color caught my eye first. It is a soft pink and adorable. It is Matte- which is an even bigger plus. I've read a few blogs that claims it is also a Mac dupe, so we shall see. Price: $7.99 Fancy details here.

4. Yes to Cucumbers- Facial Cleansing Wipes: When I was younger I had no issues ruining countless wash cloths because I knew my mom could *always* get the makeup stains out. In adulthood... I don't have time for that, so facial cleanings cloths are my new best friend. I've read REALLY great things about all their products, but I have never tried them. Plus, I am always searching for a facial wipe. I've not yet found one I am in love with. Price: $5.99 Fancy details here.

5. Wet'n'Wild- Nude Awakening palette: I present to you another palette that is not available in store, and I cannot find on Ebay. I have a similar palette in Comfort Zone, and it is awesome. Pigmentation and wear-ability on point. I fell in love with this because of one color- Right hand Column, Crease color. It's like a slate, metallic-y gray-blue. I need this!! No details for Nude Awakening, but here is information for Comfort Zone. Price: $4.68

6. Maybelline- Eye Studio Master Graphic: Confession: I cannot do a winged liner. Why? One side is impeccably better than the other. I try to even out, and it smudges. I try to fix it again, and I look like a mix between Harley Quinn and a Panda. (Not that I am complaining about HQ, but work might frown upon it). I thought with this angled tip pen, there might be a little more hope for me. Price: $7.99 Fancy details here.

What is on your June Wishlist? Do you have any drugstore products you think I would love?

Also I'll just leave this here...

Oooh- Update. I found frame one for my back-up craft project. I immediately regret not buying the 2nd frame, so I might be venturing out to grab the second one.

July 2014 Beauty Wishlist


As many of you know, for the  past few years I have been very brand biased. Over the past year though. I have ventured into using various brands. Life is too short to not enjoy all the different choices. Plus, if for some reason you want to buy me a present... this is a great place to start. 
This is my current July 2014 Beauty Wishlist.

1. Sweethearts Perfect Flush Blush- Too Faced in Candy Glow: I think I am more in love with the little heart shaped box rather than the product itself. This blush trio offers a foolproof blush application. Wear 1, 2, or mix all 3 colors. Rose pink shimmer, soft coral, and a peach shimmer. This girl needs this! You can find it here Sweethearts Blush

2. Better Than Sex Mascara- Too Faced: I am always on the search for a volumizing mascara. I suffer from a lack of eyelashes. The reviews I've seen for this mascara have all been positive. Definitely for girls looking for volume.The brush was designed to reflect a woman's body- hourglass shaped. Paraben free. Find it here Better Than Sex Mascara


3. They're Real! Push-Up Liner- benefit Cosmetics: I watched endless youtube beauty reviews for this bad boy. I am challenged when it comes to winged liner. My success rate is relatively low. This gel eyeliner offers a soft angled tip for a foolproof, smudge-proof, budge-proof line. Maybe I could finally perfect my winged liner. Every girl needs this! Find it here Push-Up Eyeliner

4. HD Pressed Powder- Make Up For Ever: I received a sample of this with a previous Sephora purchase. I am always searching for a finishing powder to reduce midday shininess and a quick touch-up. It is lightweight, works well to minimize shine, and softens your skins appearance. You can find it here HD Pressed Powder

5. Amazonian Clay Volumizing Clay Brow Powder- Tarte: Brows are the frame of the face, and I believe every girl needs to spend some time on them when apply their makeup. This powder is lightweight  and volumizing to define brows. I have sparse and wild eyebrows at times, so I ALWAYS need to fill mine in. This leaves you with a natural finish and the color does not move during the day. Get it here Brow Powder

6. LipSurgence Matte Lip Tint- Tarte: When it comes to lip products, I am extremely picky. No stickiness, shininess, heavy lip products. I tried the matte lip tint in store, and let me say... Just go ahead and buy me EVERY color. High pigment concentration, hint of peppermint, vitamin A & E, and extra moisturizing benefits. Need I say more?! Buy all the COLORS!!!! Matte Lip Tint

7. Naked Basics Palette- Urban Decay: I bought the Naked 3 palette after it first came out. It was my first Naked purchase, and at first, I was unimpressed. Then... one day I found this great tutorial and I fell in love! Now I decided I need the basics palette as well. The 6 colors are multipurpose and MATTE for those days you don't want to be extra shimmery. You can find it here Naked Basics Palette

Now, go buy me a gift :)
