Christmas Beauty Wishlist Rundown.

Yes I know. Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, and I am just revealing my wishlist now? Some of these I already got, some I still want, and yet others that stunk!

The Winners

  1. NARS Blush in Sertao. Bought myself. Still gorgeous. My winter holiday bronzer.
  2. Too Faced Retractable Kabuki Brush. Gifted by my brother! It’s so soft and perfect for touch ups on the go.
  3. Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual. Gifted by my boyfriend! It’s like a beauty blog in a book. Heavenly. Makes me want a peach undereye corrector (see 3rd list below).
  4. Aveda Rosemary Mint Shampoo. Gifted by Aveda for my birthday (well, $10 of it)! It makes my hair very manageable, sometimes even without conditioner.

The Losers

  1. Givenchy Ange ou Demon EDT. What a major stink bomb! Smelled a million times better on magazine paper.
  2. Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes! Mascara. Maybe it’s because I got a sample size from Sephora — but I highly doubt it. It weighs down my lashes and honestly not that impressive. Good thing I never bought it.

Aaand I still want these badly…

  1. Lise Watier Eye Glitter Liner. I want to wear the silver glitter over black liquid eyeliner for my birthday. Soo tempting.
  2. A peach-coloured undereye corrector. I’m on to you, Benefit Erase Paste.
  3. Bond No. 9 Bonbons. It’s so very wrong to want such expensive perfume.

Okay! I’m done. What about you? I want to know your hits and misses this holiday season!
