MAKEUP WISHLIST | BASE MAKEUP I WANT TO TRY

Hello everyone! I mentioned a few posts back now that i haven't really been spending any money on new makeup, as it hasn't really been a priority at the moment. That being said, it doesn't mean that i don't have my eye on a good list full of products that i can't wait to try out at some point. So for today's post i thought why not share with you the products that i am currently lusting after, which happen to be all base makeup products (which in my opinion is the best part about makeup).

1. dior diorskin nude luminizer in the shade nude glow

When it comes to base makeup, i think we all know that highlighter is the best part and as soon as i laid eyes on this new release from Dior's new collection i fell in love. You can pick these beautiful beautiful highlighters up in six different shades but the shade nude glow is definitely my personal favourite and they retail for £34 each.

2. clinique dramatically different hydrating jelly

As i have normal to dry skin, i am always looking for skincare products that are going to give my skin the most hydration/moisture and there is something about this hydrating jelly that really appeals to me. As this is a jelly compared to your regular cream or serum, i feel like this would be really refreshing on the skin.

3. smashbox + vlada petal metal shimmer drops

Of course there was going to be multiple highlighting/illuminating products through-out this post, next up is in a shimmer drop form. These shimmer drops available in two different shades are part of Smashbox's recent stunning limited edition collection, which i definitely want to pick up one of these soon as they look stunning and perfect for those lightweight yet glow-y less makeup days. 

4. revolution fast base concealer

Next up is a more affordable product that i can't wait to give a go, i also hope that i end up loving it as much if not more than the previous conceal and define concealer released by Revolution earlier in the year. The concept of this concealer really reminds me of the Maybelline Age Rewind concealer, which has been loved by many including me for years now. Next time i pop into Superdrug, i will definitely pick one of these up.

5. benefit hello happy soft blur foundation

To me during the summer months or even just those days where you want to wear makeup but nothing too much or heavy, it is always good to have one of those sheer/light-medium coverage foundations in your collection and this new release by Benefit is said to be just that. I really want to pick one of these up to give a go, as the reviews so far are really good and i am hoping i would like it more than the hello flawless foundation, which i wasn't a fan of.

6. bareMinerals claymates mask duo

bareMinerals is hands down one of my favourite brands, as everything just seems to suit my skin so well and i must admit i got a little excited when i saw this new face mask duo release. This mask is said to both purify and hydrate, leaving you with cleansed dewy looking skin. You can pick these new claymates mask duos up in two different types, the be pure and be dewy as well as the be bright and be firm finish.

7. iconic london luminous powder

Finally we have another illuminating product, this time from the brand that produced the ever so Instagram famous highlighting drops, that allow you to glow from space. This powder is said to be beautiful used either by each individual shade in the pan or mixed all together for an all over radiant look and who doesn't want to look radiant right? The packaging on this product is also super sleek and luxurious, i happen to be a sucker for gold metallic packaging ha!

HIGH-END BASE MAKEUP I WANT IN MY COLLECTION

Hello everyone! When it comes down to doing my makeup, my favourite part by far of the whole process is the base products and if you have read my posts for some while then you will probably already know this about me. In fact last week i posted my current everyday go-to sweat-proof base makeup, that being said there is always a new release or higher end base product i find myself lusting after. So for today's post i thought i would share with you some of the high-end base makeup products i want to try/want in my collection.

1. urban decay naked skin shapeshifter contour palette
3-in-1 palette for contour, colour-correcting and highlight (cream and powder), i feel as if this palette would be super handy for travel as you literally have most of your base makeup products in one place.

2. clinique beyond perfecting 2 in 1 foundation and concealer

I always see people using this foundation and it intrigues me so much, as it has good coverage, light-weight formula and is a 2-in-1 foundation/concealer like the one from Milani that i love.

3. it cosmetics your skin but better cc cream 
I always watch Victoria (inthefrow) using this foundation in her videos/vlogs and her skin always looks amazing, i have also never tried it cosmetics before so i am lusting.

4. guerlain l'Or primer base

Paying £47 for a face primer seems ridiculous, but everyone who i know has tried this, has fallen in love and even though they want to hate it because of the price, they can't. Apparently it is literally that good for hydrating the skin and giving it the perfect base for makeup.

5. yves saint laurent touche éclat glow shot in the shade 1

This caught my eye just over a month ago, after i swatched it in-store and it is a simply beautiful light-weight liquid highlighter with a natural finish. That being said i actually picked one up by Elf that is super similar, so could it already have a dupe?

6. bareMinerals prime time brightening foundation primer

I am all for that brightening effect when it comes to any makeup product and i have loved every single product i have ever tried from bareMinerals, in fact i have never heard anyone say anything bad about this primer!

7. too faced born this way concealer
I am so late to jump of the born this way bandwagon (both concealer and foundation), i think i went to buy it when it first got released but i couldn't get a shade i would be and then i forgot to pick one up to give a go.

8. smashbox photo finish primerizer
The idea of this product excites me so much, a primer and moisturizer in one? yes please! I am all about multi-purpose products that will save me time and effort in the morning time.

9. bareMinerals bareSkin complete coverage serum concealer
Another bareMinerals product i have had my eye on for a while, i just think this concealer would be great for those effortless no makeup, makeup days and when i want something light.

10. cover fx illuminating setting spray
I have turned into a setting spray junkie as of recent, they make such a difference to the way your makeup not only sits but how long it lasts/stays looking fresh. I also tend to opt for the illuminating/dewy finish's as well, to give a fresh glow to the skin.

11. it cosmetics ombré radiance bronzer in the shade warm radiance
Another product from it cosmetics that i have my eye on and shock horror it is a bronzer, i have so many if not too many bronzers in my makeup collection already but they are honestly one of my favourite things to collect and this one looks simply stunning/perfect for summer.

12. nude by nature highlighting palette
I have tried a couple of sample sized things from nude by nature, in the Feel Unique sample service which i have loved everything i tried and this palette has got my attention, i mean who isn't attracted to a highlight/highlight palette?

13. mac cosmetics studio fix perfecting powder
I have really been loving loose powders recently, so i keep wanting to give different ones a go and pressed ones too i don't always like to stick to the same one. It is very rare that i hate a MAC product i have tried, so i have high hopes for this powder.

14. dior diorskin nude air luminizer powder in the shade 004
I always lust over dior makeup in general but there is just something simply beautiful about this highlighter, maybe it is because i am a) a sucker for highlighters and b) i am a sucker for golden/bronze toned products.

15. nars all day luminous powder foundation
If you have read my posts for some while/before then you will know that i am a fan of the liquid version of this product from NARS, so when i discovered they do a powder version it made me need to try it. I also like how they come in the same shade names as the liquid version.

16. urban decay afterglow highlighting palette
Another new product from Urban Decay i am lusting after, as well as the shapeshifter palette and the new naked heat palette and of course it would be a highlight palette. The shade sidepiece in the palette, has my name written all over it.

17. mac cosmetics extra dimension blush in the shade telling glow
Finally i have never tried this particular formula of blush by MAC before, but i love the extra dimension skinfinishes so i think i would probably love this formula of blush also. This particular shade is stunning and perfect for these summer months.
