Weekly Wishlist #2

Well hello there! :)
welcome back for my second week of my weekly wish list,
hopefully you're enjoying it so far  :)
As I've said before this is pretty much window shopping I don't buy all of this!
let's jump into what I'm lusting after this week then!.. 


1.   So the first thing on my wish list this week is a nail polish, there has been a lot of craze around the new models own nail polishes that 'enhance' your tan but while browsing at them, I came across this polish.. I'm not the biggest fan on neon typically but I do love a pop of colour in the summer and at £3 on ASOS at the moment this may end up coming home with me in a few months.  Apparently you've to keep these polishes in the fridge to keep the colour from fading.

2.   Second up is a new brand on the scene called 'Revolution', this brand came up on a few beauty blogs and sparked my interest, This palette is the essential mattes palette, 12 shades, all matte with high pigmentation- perfection? I think so
I love how this is almost a cheap naked palette dupe, the shades are similar but none are shimmer.
The price tag is great on this one at only £4! the same price as MUA palettes (rumour has it that the owner of 'make up academy cosmetics' owns this brand)
there is also many more palettes from this brand that I'm dying to try.
I believe that these will soon be available in superdrug.
I have made an order but not yet received it so I will report back once I do -it's so affordable!
Buy Here 
 
3.   This product is from the same brand as above 'Revolution', This is one I just couldn't leave out due to the huge craze for the stila eye foils that are going around at the minute, The stila version retails for £33.50 - no chance I'm buying that... but this possible dupe comes in at ONLY £4 both versions come with a powder eyeshadow and a mixing agent and both create a metallic foil finish - I have ordered two of these so I will report back on whether they're any good!
If the owner of this company did own 'mua cosmetics' then the quality of these is something to look forward too.
4.    This is a new product from 'sleek', I love the pigmentation of sleek products BUT with an eyebrow pencil, I want it to be waxy and build able, not pigmented and like drawing your brows on with a Kohl pencil so I'm sceptical with this one.
The tip is angled, the formula is matte and it has a spoolie on the other side.
 I'd actually really like to try this.  it comes in three shades and has an affordable price tag.
£5.99  Buy Here
  
5.    Soap and glory do the best bath products in the business, no one can compete, they're quirky, have amazing names and the scents are to die for.
for me they are top of my list when it comes to body care, I have tried 99% of their products from make up to body toning gel but this is in the 1% I haven't tried and I'm dying too! 
Due to already owning around 30 body washes ..I have to wait to get this.. but I did have a sniff of this on a trip to boots and it is to die for! a real morning type of body wash, it's so zesty and refreshing, if it's anything like the other soap and glory formula's then you'll feel squeaky clean but moisturised also.
and can we just appreciate the name- Orangeasm ...cheeky.
This comes in at a very affordable £6.50 for a huge 500ml! you'd be a fool to complain, you get quality, quantity and it's affordable! 
There is also a matching body butter ;)
6.    Now we have a skincare pick of the week, The product I'm talking about is Una Brennan super facialist vitamin c skin renew cleansing oil, what a mouthful. 
This product has great reviews which originally had drawn me to it but on further browsing I have found it to be near enough exactly the same as the Origins oil except in price.
The packaging,the colour, formula, and the results are all described as the same- dupe maybe?
The origins comes in at £22, whilst this baby is £11 on a regular day.. if you pick it up now then boots has an offer on for only £7.33!!
This is packed with vitamin C to give your skin a glowy look and it also includes anti ageing properties whilst cleansing your skin.
If I had room in my cleanser holder in my bathroom then I'd snap this up pronto!
7.    Now back to soap and glory, I'm going to boots tomorrow to pick up this particular item, I have enough boots points to get this for free! 
It's the soap and glory matte lipstick in 'supernude', I have swatched this before when purchasing one of these lipsticks but I ended up getting the shade 'pom pom' instead, after falling head over heels for the formula I decided I was going back for the other shade that I wanted... I have waited until now to get it for free!
These lipsticks are amazing, matte but silky, non drying and just gorgeous...they also smell and taste like vanilla cupcake!
They are very pigmented and I'd give the packaging 10/10.
They are an overall winner for me I just wish they had more colours in this formula.
at £9 ,they are half way between Rimmel lipsticks and MAC in pricing, so you can't complain too much.
8.    Now another lip product, The Loreal 24h lip colour, this intrigues me as I've tried the Maybelline 24 hour lip colours and I love them. (there are mixed views on them due to them being applied wrong and not lasting) 
These seem to be the exact same thing... the long lasting lip colour on one end that sets then you apply the clear balm that comes on the other end...
so you want to try this why?...
well this formula contains hyaluronic acid which is known for it's hydration properties, I'd love to find out if this is the non drying version of the Maybelline equivalent. 
at £9.99 it's not too bad if it works! Buy Here
 
9.    Finally, one product that has blown up on the beauty scene recently is the Benefit gimme brow, a water resistant fibre eyebrow gel..now this I REALLY want, as someone who in their teens, plucked their eyebrows into a tiny line..*inserts picture below* I now fill them in, they have grown back pretty much to how I want them but I still need a little help and fibres on my eyebrows sounds great!
BUT it's £17.50 for 3g of product..is it me or is that just crazy?
ah well I can dream can't I? I hate buying something expensive and it ending up being rubbish so I'm not brave enough to splurge on this, I'll stick to my Rimmel brow pencil for £3 to fill in the front! aha.    Buy Here
