In my holiday beauty list I have the Makeup Forever 15 Artist Shadow palette and the Urban Decay Gwen Stefani eyeshadow palette 🙂
A lot of stuff lol. I want the NARS Despair Blush Palette, Lorac Mega Pro 2 Palette and Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Palette mostly though. I ordered a lot of stuff during Black Friday/Cyber Monday so I think I’m all set on wish list until I grab those palettes. I think lol
Mac Von Teese Red!
Me too! That’s about all that’s on my radar for now.
I think I’ve spent my fair share of coins on beauty items for this holiday season. I really can’t think of anything else I may want; except, maybe, items I passed up from this prior Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, but they’re not immediate wants. Other than that, I think I’m content for the rest of the year.
I’m eyeing those brand new Cover Girl Tru Naked Shadow palettes that just came out. They are only $10 a kit and are advertising that they are just as good as the $53 UD Naked palettes. Well, I was reaaaally skeptical, ’cause the Maybelline and L’Oreal dupes are pretty pathetic. But I saw a review of the CG Rose palette from a trusted blogger, who swatched it next to UD Naked 3, and my jaws hit the keyboard when I saw the swatches without primer. UD swatched a little better, but CG is $43 cheaper! So I’ll be hunting those kits down….
It was the Naked 3 palette, my plan was to redeem my drug store loyalty points for it this Christmas but it had already sold out with no plans to restock. Really hard to buy it from Sephora when I know I can get it for free with my points (Shoppers Drug Mart in Canada is awesome). So I’ll have to be a good little girl and be patient for it to come back. I know, feel sorry for me right! 🙂
Tarte at first blush amazion set,
Too faced grande chateau,
Bobbi Brown university lip palette,
Tarte in bloon palette,
Becca jaclynn hill palette
I’ve bought everything on my list, so I’m good. I can’t think of anything really, so maybe a back up or 2 of my staples (more Wayne Goss brushes or Meteorites!).
Definitely the Gwen Stefani palette. This looks really pretty b
MAC x Dita von Teese is really the only thing I’m interested in this Christmas. I already picked up Chanel Rouge Noir, so I’m pretty much set!
I want to start using an eye cream, so I’m starting to do research on that. Any recommendations? It would be a nice winter present to myself. Something is different about my skin this winter – I don’t know if it’s my age or if something shifted in the water supply, but I suddenly have dry patches high up on my cheekbones.
Ray, Beautypedia has a good list of great eye creams. I just bought the CeraVe Eye Repair Cream based on their recommendation.

My skin is usually oily, but since I’ve gotten older, I get really dry around my eyes and alongside my nose.
Ha, that was already my top choice! I love CeraVe. Good to know the eye cream is nice too – thanks!
Try Drunk Elephant ‘s Shaba Complex Eye Serum. Doesn’t feel thick or heavy, but packed with tons of goodies! All of DE products are amazing! Like the other comment, check out Beautypedia..they know their stuff when it comes to skin care products!
Not much! The holiday sets and deals this year haven’t really inspired me so my wishlist is pretty empty. I am excited for next year’s UD Gwen Stefani lipsticks though so we’ll see (:
I think my list is just constantly being tweaked here and there as new products are released. Some grab my attention immediately, others slowly become more tempting or somehow deemed “necessary”. For now, I know I need another Ole Henriksen skincare kit, best time of year to hit that. Probably a new fragrance, unless I can talk myself into waiting for February’s 2x or 3x points. Hopefully some MAC x Ellie Goulding stuff.
Dita Von Teese for Mac
Ellie Goulding duo blush -maybe
The new Pantone for Sephora lips and palette
Mac Fairie Whispers.
Although, Mac Fairie technically releases after Christmas. Lol
I’m posting my full wish list tomorrow, but one of the things that is still on there from last year is a Philips Lumea.
The two Glossimers from Chanel’s holiday collection….Rose de Lune and Etincelle. Definitely on my wish list.
My wish list goes forever it seems. But, I’ve managed to knock off the bulk LE already. But, I would like to get some of the following: The Hacylon Days palette form the mac X Ellie Goulding collab and one of the lipsticks(If they review well) and the MAC Dita Von Tesse lipstick; Loving the Armani Ectasy lacquers. So, hoping for a couple more of those along with the eye tint in #18, Chanel Tisse Gabrielle quad, Tom ford lips & Boys in Kinnsington and Theo. Many of those items are permanent. So, if they have to wait until after Christmas that’s fine with me.
urban decay face primerrrrr
I want to swatch the Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani palette in-store, and, if I like the way the colors look on my skin, may get it. I’d also still like to get Tom Ford lip color in Showgirl, since I was searching everywhere for lips & boys in Francesco, and finally stumbled on the post that told me it’s moved over to the lips colors and is called Showgirl this year! It wasn’t included in the promotion I was using, so I passed on it at the time, but I still keep thinking of it.
I think I have everything I wanted , holiday wise. Everything else can wait until February for my birthday or April for VIB sale
I still have two items on my list. The Tarte in Bloom and Tom Ford’s Richard lipstick.
In terms of actual “Holiday” releases, I’ve already got everything I wanted, except the UD Spectrum palette… If the NARS eyeshadow singles are still available next month, I may splurge on those. Other than that, I just want to finish my MAC palettes, and I only have 12 left, but again, those will wait until next month. I am hitting Sephora & ULTA tomorrow, so who knows, LOL!
i didnt got the spectrum palette and i was so bummed bc of that /:
I pretty much got everything I wanted during the Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales, but I did just swatch the Tom Ford Moodlight duo, and it is gorgeous. So that’s gone to the top of my list.
Nothing as I have already bought what I wanted and them some lol 🙂
That doesn’t mean I still won’t buy things that appeal to me or I want, there is just nothing that I am really lusting after or dying to get my hands on at the moment.
The new holiday brush from Wayne Goss, and I would really like a Viseart matte eye shadow pallet and a satin finish one as well…I can´t quite figure out which of the satin palettes to choose!
Rouge Louboutin matte lipstick, Kat von D Iggy eye shadow, Jack Black lip balm quartet, Chosungah 22 Pink Glow highlighter, maybe some of the new OCC lip tars (Derelict and Stud are catching my eye).
I always include a perfume on my holiday wish list. This year I wanted Roberto Cavalli’s Paradiso but I actually just bought it as a gift to myself 😀 the Le Grand Moyeu scented candle from & Other Stories is now still on my wish list. No makeup this year!
i am literally stalking the morphe website to see if i get the 35O and the m527 brush… im eyeing the mac give me sun bronzer thanks to desi perkins… and apart from that um i think im cool but sephora sent me a coupon for the purchase of 50 bucks and i kinda dont want it to waste D: im a hoarder now.
Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bons. But I’m also eyeing some FAB stuff (when I have about a dozen skincare products that still need to be used up, natch). Not sure which one I’ll end up using my VIB coupon on,
Ha, ha, ha! My list is never-ending. 😀
The Two Faced Chocolate Bon Bons Eye Shadow Collection (coming out 12/8), MAC Dita von Teese lipstick (coming out 12/9), Tarte At First Blush Deluxe Amazonian Clay Blush Set, ColourPop holiday releases.
Gwen Stefani UD palette!!! Jeffree Star lip scrub.
Well I am still very keen to get that bareMinerals Soft and Smoky eye shadow palette and I still wouldn’t mind the Lorac Pro Metals either. Both are similar, but I love the bareMinerals one the best.
Nothing specific, but my general wishlist is some Zoeva brush sets, and hopefully I’ll get a few gift cards for there so I can get some at one point.
I (or “Santa”) have purchased everything I wanted… and a few things I didn’t even know I wanted! LOL The only things I haven’t purchased are more WG brushes. My children refuse to buy makeup for me (because I honestly don’t need more) but they will buy brushes… so I foresee another WG brush or two in my future! =)
The Wayne Goss Anniversary brush set!
The Wayne Goss Anniversary Brush set. does anyone have it? If so what are your thoughts?
Lots of skincare and I think the two Ciaté palettes. I’m still torn on the MUFE palette and there is pile of perfume I want.
Colourpop’ Fall + Holiday collection and the Foreo Luna Kit. Otherwise, I’ve gotten what I wanted, and I’m even thinking that I should get a backup of the KVD MVLR palette since I ‘ve been using it a lot!
I generally buy more indie makeups because I feel I can get more bang for my buck. But, man, I’m craving palettes! I’d love any of the Nakeds, Vice, Lorac MegaPro, or Kat Von D’s.
Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bon Collection is coming out on the 8th………
Urban Decay Gwen Stefani eyeshadow palette and the MAC Von Teese Lippy. Though I might wait and see if the $ gets better and get it from the US – both will be $150 out here 🙁
I would love to get my greedy mitts on theBalm’s “Balm of Your Hand” palette. I haven’t tried hardly any products from that line, other than a couple of beauty subscription samples that I did like a lot. So that palette looks like the perfect way to try a bunch without spending a fortune.
But before I do that, I’m strongly considering getting to Ulta and picking up FOUR of the Nyx “Tricks of the Trade Travel Kits” for Christmas: One each for my daughter, my sister, my boyfriend (yes, he wears makeup once in a while too), and one for me! That kit has a nice selection of no-nonsense but “great extra touch” -type products that pretty much anyone can use. Mine would go to restock my travel makeup bag. And I know the people on my shopping list would like them, but they probably wouldn’t think to get those products for themselves. Plus I love the big clear bag the kit comes in. All in all, I think it’s a lot of bang for the buck, and one of the most universally-enjoyable, affordable beauty gifts I’ve seen in a long time.
Lush American cream conditioner and lush gift cards
