Beauty Product Wishlist

Hi everyone!
In the northeast we got POUNDED with snow... and I am snowed in. :(
While I wish I could get to work/school/someplace outside my house, I am going to be relaxing for the remainder of my weekend.
So, out of sheer boredom, I have been torturing myself for the last hour or so with looking at beauty products that I cannot buy for another week.  (For those of you new readers, I am majorly trying to save money for IMATS by not shopping for all of January).  The no-buy has been going well, and I think other than two days where I know I will absolutely be buying things (1. Winter formal=makeup consultation=NECESSARY $50 minimum purchase that I am more than happy to oblige to and 2. buying a Valentine's Day present for my boyfriend), I am going to try and keep it up.  I have some really awesome reviews coming up in the next few weeks to put on here that I hope you all like!

That all being said, here is my wish list: (all pictures taken from Google images)
 


 
 





In Order:
Essie Nail Polish in Barefoot and Topless- I have been eyeing this for a while.  I think it would be a perfect color for the rest of winter and into spring and summer.  Nude polish has been really popular lately, and it goes with every outfit. (Target)
Urban Decay OZ Eye Shadow Palette in Glinda- I saw this on Urban Decay's twitter account and then saw that they released it online this week (it isn't expected to hit stores until March!!) and with each blogger who posts pictures I am falling more and more in love. It has my favorite UD 24/7 pencil in it, 6 pans of shades (2 duos!) and a lip gloss pen (that reminds me of the Nars Matte Velvet Lip pencils).  I am going to try to hold out until Sephora.com gets it in, which is expected to be very soon. UD has been nailing it lately in the industry and has been launching so many new and amazing products. (urbandecay.com)
MAC Mineralized Skin Finish in Porcelain Pink- Although I am a big MAC fan, I have yet to try one of their MSF products.  I have heard amazing things about them.. but this is the particular one I wanted to try the most, and my MAC counter has been out for weeks.  I am really starting to get worried because it is a limited edition product and I'm not quite ready to start hunting for it at CCO's.  I feel like every time I go to buy a different one, I don't like it as much as I like the swatch of the Porcelain Pink, and I end up buying a mineralized blush instead (by the way.. check those out, I am loving Amber Glow and Dainty lately!). (maccosmetics.com)
NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in Deauville- I tried a sample of this at Sephora and love it.  I am running low on my UD Naked Skin liquid foundation and am ready to purchase a new bottle.. so I may be giving this a try.  It is designed to be hydrating, and with my dry skin, it is definitely something I am looking forward to. (Sephora)
YSL Glossy Stain in No. 7 "Corall Aquatique"- This product must be on every blogger's list that I follow here on Blogger.  This particular color is one I have only seen online, but the color looks beautiful.  The stain is supposed to be really long-wearing and hydrating, which is an issue I've been having with a lot of my MAC lipsticks lately.  While the cost is up there a little ($32 would make it the most expensive lip product I own), I am still debating whether or not it is worth it. Any thoughts? (Sephora)
Lancome STAR Mascara- I am in love with this mascara.  If you are a big fan of full, long lashes (and who isn't?) this is for you.  I received a sample of it in one of those "spend $25 and get one of these sample bags" early in October, and at first I was a little sketched out by it.  It is flat on two sides and has really long, fluffy bristles on the ends.  I thought, "how could the flat side ever be beneficial?" and surprisingly, its awesome.  I will use it by swiping the flat side on first, and then defining with the bristles.  Not to mention, the bottle is beautiful.  (Macy's, Sephora)
Glam Glow Super Mud Clearing Mask- Go back a couple of posts to see my review on this. I do not need to say more.  It is the single most amazing skin care treatment that there is, and I am desperately running low.  I dread when that day comes, and so I am ready to stock up.  (Sephora)
Laura Mercier Caviar Stick in Orchid - I have a Caviar stick in Amethyst already, and when I bought it, I felt the colors were all really dark.  I was so excited to find out that they came out with all new colors that were light and perfect for spring.  This color is beautiful, soft, blendable, and long-wearing.  I love using it as a base and also alone.  (Sephora)


That's my list!!! What's on yours? Any opinions on mine? Feel free to comment below :)
Stay safe and have a great weekend!
