Wishlist Wednesday: High End Liquid Foundations

My most expensive vice (besides lip products) are base products. I'm obsessed with getting the most flawless face, and the end result is me eyeing foundations and trying to figure out the foundation that will make me look flawless, yet natural. So far, the closest foundation that has gotten me to where I want is the Nars Sheer Glow Foundation (Review). Of course, because there are always new products out on the market, I have been eyeing a few high end liquid foundations. Hunting for a good drugstore foundation that is yellow toned is hard, making me usually gravitate towards the more pricey foundation. As a result, today I am sharing with you the foundations that I am probably going to buy next and feel free to share with me a good liquid medium to full coverage foundation for oily skin.

Makeup MAYhem Day 21 - Drugstore Wishlist Wednesday #2


Hello everyone! Guess what? I just recently hit 100 followers on Bloglovin! (insert quick victory dance). Thank you everyone for following reading and/or my blog... I know I haven't been the most active of bloggers so it means a lot that a lot of you have stuck around! Be sure to check out my international giveaway here, may have added an extra entry since I reached the milestone!

Today in Makeup MAYhem, I will be showing you what products I have been wanting to get from the drugstore. I've been spending a lot recently, and I'm going to cut back for awhile and not spend on makeup (brushes on the other hand, is a different story). In the meantime, I have plenty of products I have been eyeing for awhile, this time it is another Drugstore version (considering how I have almost exhausted my other Drugstore wishlist)! Hope you guys enjoyed this post!



CoverGirl Ready Set Gorgeous
Price: $9
Will I Buy: Potentially
Reason: This foundation is supposed to have oil controlling properties and that sounds really tempting for a girl with oily skin to try out in the summer weather. I've heard mixed reviews on this foundation, some people love it and other don't. As you guys probably know, I completely adore the CoverGirl Outlast 3 in 1 Foundation, so I'm hoping this one may give me the same result! May try this...once I finish a foundation (or return one...who knows!)


L'Oreal Magic Nude Liquid to  Powder Foundation
Price: $11
Will I Buy: Potentially
Reason: The more I hear bloggers talk about this foundation, the more I want to get it myself! What got me really intrigued about this product is that it goes liquid to powder, which is very similar to my CG3in1. This foundation has light to medium coverage, which is perfect for the summer time. I may give this a go in hopes that it works well for my oily skin during the summer heat.


L'Oreal True Match Foundation
Price: $9
Will I Buy: Probably
Reason: One of the most raved about foundations online, this foundation is something that is supposed to suit every skintone, and it also provides decent coverage. I'm loving L'Oreal True Match Lumi for mixing, so I can only imagine how wonderful this would be!


Maybelline Dream Wonder Pressed Powder
Price: $7
Will I Buy: Potentially
Reason: I do not currently have a pressed powder that gives me coverage... so I feel like this product would be perfect for me! This, out of everything here, may be the first thing I pick up from my wishlist when my wallet gets back to buying conditions. Hopefully this also has good oil controlling properties... or else it'll be a useless buy!


Maybelline Color Elixirs by Color Sensational
Price: $8
Will I Buy: YES
Reason: Probably a lip product I would not hesitate to pick up, once I have enough coupons! I've tried this lip product from one of my friend's stash, and I love it! It's not sticky and its a pigmented and opaque gloss! The only thing keeping me away from purchasing it is my wallet!


NYX Stay Matte Not Flat Powder Foundation
Price: $10
Will I Buy: Probably
Reason: I do not have a powder foundation that is suited for oily skin. The name of this foundation is intriguing, and if the claim is true, I feel like I would enjoy the foundation a lot. I like my foundations matte, but I do not want a washed out appearance. Once I finish a powder foundation, this will be the first one I reach too.


Physician's Formula Nude Wear Nude Glow Powder
Price: $15
Will I Buy: Possibly
Reason: First of all, lets admire the packaging of this. It is absolutely adorable! Besides that, this seems intriguing... I don't own a pressed powder that causes my skin to be luminous. If I am going to buy, it'll be during the winter months when its safe to look dewy.


Physician's Formula EyeBooster 2 in 1 Lash Boosting Eyeliner + Serum
Price: $11
Will I Buy: YES!
Reason: One of my good friends, loves, this eyeliner. She swears by this, saying that it stays all day and doesn't budge one bit! While I do love my Wet n Wild MegaLast Eyeliner, I would like to find an eyeliner with a finer tip. The only liquid liner pen that I have really enjoyed is the one from Stila (due to the fine tip it has). I'll get my hands on this once I'm finished with at least one of my other liquid liner pens.


Revlon Color Burst Matte Lipbalm
Price: $7
Will I Buy: Possibly
Reason: As many of you guys may know, I am a huge fan of the original Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains. They are, by far, some of the most long lasting lip products I own! The only thing holding me back from buying this...is the fact that I already have a lot of jumbo lip products, and I'm unsure if I really, truly want more.


Rimmel ScandalEyes ShadowPaints
Price: $5
Will I Buy: Possibly
Reason: Out of the whole bunch of products I have on my wishlist, this is by far something I know for sure I do not have in my collection. While I do have cream eyeshadows, the uniqueness of the application of this cream eyeshadow makes it intriguing. I haven't heard many people talk about this product online, so for that it may be a (somewhat legitimate) reason to pick it up!

What products have you been itching to pick up? Let me know in the comments below!  Be sure to check out my giveaway here (open internationally)!

Wishlist Wednesday: Drugstore Makeup Products

Hey guys! So I'm back for another Wishlist Wednesday Post, the High End Version of this was posted last week here. Unlike last week however, this is a list of products that I will probably get within the next year or so due to how nice it is on my budget. That is also providing that I get rid of products I don't particularly like out of my collection somehow... >.> These are the products that have been in my head to try for awhile, so these are the wants I'm coveting the most! That isn't to say however that I will go out and grab them tomorrow all at once :B Hope you guys enjoy!


Almay Get Up & Grow Waterproof Mascara
Will I Get It: Probably
Why: I'm searching for my favorite drugstore mascaras, which means I have to search through a lot of cult favorites before I find it! 
CoverGirl & Olay Concealer Balm
Will I Get It: Yes
Why: I don't have a concealer that I am completely satisfied to use on my acne scars, so this is the next concealer I will try (once I get rid of a good bunch of mine I have already of course!)
Covergirl Cheekers Blush
Will I Get It: Probably
Why: I love blush, and I want to try more from other drugstore brands!


Elf Studio HD Blush
Will I Get It: Probably...especially if it goes to Target!
Why: Cause I want to try more elf product! I also adore blushes, and I would love to see how the formula for this product worked out!


L'Oreal Infallible The Super Slim Eyeliner in Black
Will I Buy: Yes
Why: I'm still searching for a holy grail liquid eyeliner. While I do like the Maybelline Masterprecise Liquid Eyeliner, I want to try a couple more before I stick to one eyeliner...permanently! 

L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara
Will I Buy: Yes Purchased
Why: I'm always looking for the next best mascara that will help out my lashes. I've heard amazing things about this mascara and would love to try it out! This will probably be bought as soon as I've used up a couple of my mascaras.
Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush
Will I Get It: Yes
Why: This is a very unique formula for a cream blush, I'm kinda wondering how it really feels and if it really bounces! And of course, I love blushes, which augments the need for this one more.

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles Concealer
Will I Get It: Probably
Why: Concealing Dark Circles is a top priority for me, and my addiction to concealers is a testament to that fact. I own 5 under eye concealers currently, so I don't anticipate picking this up until I finish with at least 2 of them though.


Revlon Colorstay Liquid Foundation for Combo/Oily Skin
Will I Get It: Yes  Purchased!
Why: I have been dying to try what many people consider as the holy grail for people with combo/oily skin. This will be my next drugstore purchase, hands down. Major downside of it is that there is no pump :(
Revlon Colorstay Whipped Foundation
Will I Buy: Probably
Why: This foundation gets amazing reviews and I have nothing like this. The only downsize really is the bulky packaging, which pretty much means I can't travel with it once I get it as well as that there is no pump :( !

Wet n Wild Coloricon Bronzer SPF 15 in Reserve Your Cabana
Will I Buy: Probably Not Purchased!
Why: This product may be labeled as a bronzer, but it is most certainly a highlighter! While this is a very cheap product, I have't gotten to the phase of always highlighting when I wear makeup. But, if I ever decide to pick up another highlighter, this is probably one I will pick out.

Are there any products you recommend me to try from the drugstore? How do these items fit in on your wishlist? Let me know in the comment section below!

Wishlist Wednesday: High End Products

Welcome to Wishlist Wednesday everyone! I always love branching out on cosmetics, so this is my wishlist on what I want to get (eventually). It might be a month, it might be a year... who knows! These are the things I'm hoping to get eventually! I've rated the products with how likely I will get it, and a brief explanation why!

Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Powder Duo
Will I Get It: Yes  Purchase 7/31/13 in a kit, description why here
Why: After trying her Brow Wiz, I have to say that I also want to try another of her best selling products. This will probably be bought after I finish either her brow wiz or the elf studio brow kit.


bareMinerals Matte Foundation
Will I Get It: Probably
Why: I've been obsessed with the idea of Mineral Makeup lately, I've been wanting to try it the bareMinerals line for the longest time. If I ever completely finish with a couple of my powder products, this will be the next I will try.

Benefit They're Real! Mascara
Will I Get It: Yes Received in Sephora's Birthday Perks!
Why: I'm on the search for the best mascaras for my Asian lashes, this one gets tons of hype so I will definitely try this one out.... when I completely dry out on 2 of my mascaras :)
Beauty Blender Sponge
Will I Get It: Yes Purchased during Sephora VIB Haul
Why: Lets face it, $20 for a sponge is completely unreasonable, but the reason why I want to try it out is because I heard it doesn't absorb any excess product. That's right, you won't be wasting foundation/tinted moisterizer etc when you are using this. So, for that fact alone, I will eventually try this product out!
Chanel No. 5 Eau De Toilette
Will I Get It: Yes
Why: I love this perfume. It is the bomb diggity! This has the highest chance of the products here today of getting purchased within a relatively close time :)
Dior Diorskin Shimmer Star in Amber Diamond
Will I Get It: Unlikely
Why: While this is a beautiful product, I rarely highlight my skin using powders. I tend to rely on my concealers to brighten up my face. Regardless, this is on my wishlist because it would be SO nice to have!

Guerlain Terracotta Bronzing Powder
Will I Get It: Unlikely
Why: It's so pricey! Maybe if I hit pan on enough products I could justify it...but I only use bronzer in the summer, so this pretty product would just sit in my makeup drawer for years and not be used...literally! 

Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer
Will I Get It: Probably
Why: I'm really not enjoying my current primer, so I'm searching for one that would best suit my oily skin. This is "the best of the market" as of right now but its also really expensive. I honestly probably won't buy until I finish Project 10 Pan, just because by then I will feel good about being able to buy products.

Laura Mercier Tinted Moisterizer
Will I Get It: Probably
Why: This will probably be what I will buy to replace my Lancome Teint Miracle when I am finished with it. I have a good friend of mine, Nhi, that has gone through 3 of these tubes, which is the main reason why I will probably grab it. This would probably be a good summer product to wear (or in Florida's case, a good thing to use year round :B )
Lancome Definicils Mascara
Will I Get it: Yes
Why: My lashes needs lots of help, I have tried both Lancome Hypnose Drama and Lancome Hypnose Doll Eyes Mascara, and both work really well. This one also gets a lot of raves for lengthening and I want to see if the fuss is any good!


Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24H
Will I Get It: Yes
Why: While I completely adore the Covergirl Foundation that I don't stop raving about, I really do want to try this one out. Once I finish with 3 of my foundations that I will have I will purchase it!
LORAC Pro Palette
Will I Get It: Unlikely
Why: I have tons of neutral eyeshadows in my collection. I already have the majority, if not all of these colors from various brands. Still, it would be nice to have because its all in one palette, and you won't be searching through your collection for it...

Make Up For Ever High Definition Foundation
Will I Get It: Probably
Why: Like I said before, I would love to find a high end version of my CoverGirl foundation. Does it make any sense? Probably not. But this is one I'm certain to try once I'm finished with a good portion of my foundations.

Nars Multiple in Orgasm
Will I Get It: Unlikely
Why: I'm not quite sure if I''d actually use it if came in a stick form like this, even though it is quite compact. I do think that when this is used properly, it gives a beautiful glow to someones face... I'll probably give this a try... if I someone dig into these types of products

OCC Lip Tar Stained Gloss
Will I Get It: Probably
Why: I love lip products, and these products are one that I have been wanting to try out for ages. However, I feel like I would have to mix these in order for me to be able to use on a frequent basis, because they pretty much only have bright colors in the collection!


Shiseido Foundation Brush
Will I Get It: Probably
Why: If there was one high end foundation brush I would really like to try, it would be this brush. This brush is so soft and small, which would make it really good to reach the areas around my nose and that nature. I haven't heard a lot of reviews about this brush, but if I ever get a chance, I will probably go out and buy it!


Like I've said before, just because I stated yes or probably doesn't mean I will buy immediately...just that it will happen eventually!

As such, here is a wishlist of products I want to try from Mally!
