February Beauty Wishlist

Yeah, yeah, February is the month of love or whatever. Aren’t my little pink hearts enough? This post will not be filled with products I just can’t wait to buy and try out on Valentine’s day because, well, eff that. Instead this post is all about getting ready for summer, and for summer I am loving products in shades of peach and coral.

I’ve included a few peachy coral beauties from NARS, Fresh, and Deborah Lippmann, and Benefit Cosmetics. I’m looking forward to creating a look with these that I’m predicting will be my go to summer look this year. Of course I can’t go piling orange on my face if it’s red, which mine usually is, so I’m set on finding the best color correcting primer out there. I’ve had success with Smashbox’s Photo Finish, but I really like the way “amazonian clay” sounds and Tarte’s CC primer has great reviews, so I am dying to try it!  After reading this post on Lauren Conrad’s blog The Beauty Department, I’ve started using baby oil before and after I shower. It is working wonderfully so I think I’m ready to upgrade to something a little more luxe like L’Occitane’s Almond Supple Skin Oil. And finally, on a note completely unrelated note, I need like ten of these UNII Palettes to put together some eyeshadows and blushes from various palettes I have lying around. And even though I’m going to be enjoying being single bitter this Valentine’s Day, I may give out some beauty suggestions! We’ll have to wait and see.

January Wish List

 

My lips are dry, my hands are dry…you don’t even want to hear about my feet. I feel like an alligator. You know, if alligators could walk, talk, and bitch about their dry skin. It finally got below freezing here in North Carolina, and the frigid temp has completely taken over my January beauty wish list. It is full of creams and things to combat my dryness and hopefully make me sound a little less bitchy during my next post. I am super excited to try out a mod look early this year, so I added a white eye pencil and lip products in pink and orange hues. Let me know what you think and shop the post below!
