La Mer moisturising cream. I’m wondering whether its actually worth it.
Hi Jam! I actually did a review of several La Mer products – very luxurious. Dita Von Teese swears by La Mer, but I wasn’t 100% convinced myself.
Kerastase Oleo-Relax Serum……..i keep trying to convince myself that Biosilk does the same job (which it doesn’t), cause i can’t bear to spend $35 on one bottle……
Go ahead and buy this. I use the entire line and love it. If you have really dry hair like mine it’s worth the investment and since I only wash my hair 2 times a week the product last at least a year for me.
Unfortunately for me, my hair is so thick and porous that 1 bottle only lasts me about 2 months (yes, it’s THAT thick!!). But, i think i just need to stop whining and buy it 🙂
I know how you feel, Courtney! I’m testing out a face cleanser that’s about $28 a pop, which is so steep for me!!
MAC Holiday collection. I have not bought it yet because it is not available. I just love MAC and sometimes I get frustrated with the expense.
Oh well, I’m hooked on MAC and I will spend the money. LOL
I know what you mean, Raven’s Fire! Sometimes MAC is such a money eater!
Hi Christine! Gosh, there are TONS I am wishing and hoping to get, the question is whether my wallet can keep up! HAHA, I too am waiting on the MAC Holiday collection, McQueen, and pretty much any collection MAC comes out with!
Hey Vanessa! Ohh, thank goodness the holidays are coming up, so hopefully you’ll get some as gifts!
MAC Pigments. I own lots of eyeshadows but no pigments because it’s a lot of product that I’m afraid I’d never use.
Christine, if I’m only going to buy one pigment, what color would you recommend? I have blonde hair, beige skin, green eyes, and I like wearing metallics on my eyes. I’d be fine with just one pigment color as long as I could use it for many looks.
Hey Audrey! Love pigments, too, and it was tough to plunk down the change on my first one. If you could only pick one, I guess I’d go for a lighter one so you could wear it with many looks like Vanilla. If you wear a lot of one color, getting a pigment in that color family isn’t a bad idea either!
Definitely La Mer products…been wanting to try this brand but I find it ridiculously expensive.
Incredibly expensive for sure, but maybe you can ask for a sample at the counter (not sure if they do this!) or as a holiday gift!
M·A·C Holiday
NARS Orgasm the Multiple
M·A·C Blue Herizon Liquid Last Liner
M·A·C New Vegas MSF
…these are the ones that I can think of on the spot…there must be tons…
Looks like quite a list you have there!!
I want the new La Mer eye cream but it’s $160…has any one tried it?
Hi Marylynn! I’ve tried it, and I didn’t notice too much difference, but I still have fairly youthful skin so I’m not the best test object.
I have been wanting to try make up forever duo matte foundation, and eyeshadows.
Ohh, Duo matte foundation, sounds good to me!
I would love the new Chanel Holiday Palette. 🙂 The other item that I am dying to get it Benefits Cupid’s Bow lipstick.
Ohh, the Chanel palette is gorgeous!!
I’m on board with Katie – both of the Chanel Holiday palettes are to die for. Dear Santa…
Dear Santa indeed, I can’t see myself dropping that much $ on a palette quite yet.
