Ruh Rooooohs I’ve been window shopping again, which means it’s time for another Spring Lust List! This time it’s all beauty items, and they’re all fairly pricey. Well I guess the pricey part is the reason that this is a lust list and not an “I bought everything on this” list. Although for the record that sort of list would be more fun. So here we go, my must have spring beauty products, that I don’t actually have yet!
- Butter London Basecoat & Topcoat – Sometimes even when I am pretty happy with a product I’m currently using, I get the itch to find bigger and better things. I think I also get the itch to replace these things with higher end versions as well. I know that’s silly, but I like a little bit of luxury in my routine what can ya do? The butter london Nail Foundation and Nail Hardwear have been calling my name for a while now. The reviews for both of these are outstanding and I’m not gonna lie . . .I just really like the packaging.
- YSL Baby Doll Kiss & Blush – When I first saw this product online, I had literally NO desire to buy it. None. The packaging looks like a nail polish bottle from 1993, and I usually don’t get into “Lip & Cheek” products because I find that the formula is usually lacking performance on either the lips or the cheeks. Fast forward to me going to Sephora and happening to swatch this in the shade 01 Fuchsia Desinvolte . . .holy crap you guys. It’s so freakin’ pretty! It’s like creamy but gel-like and rich and bright and nuanced. It’s all the things. It’s everything I ever wanted and more. However it’s also 40 bucks, and at that moment that was a little too rich for my blood. Such is life. But it’s on my mind, and the day will come when I have a moment of “Treat yo self!” and it will be mine. You wait and see.
- Dior Addict Fluid Stick – This one was a little different. I knew I wanted one the moment I saw it in a magazine. This is another incarnation of that new breed of hybrid lip products that have been around the last few years, and I am a total sucker for them. If you promise high shine, long wear and pops of color I’m there. With enthusiasm. It’s very appropriate for this time of year too, in my opinion because there’s nothing like a bright lip to dress up a simple outfit in the warm weather.
- Bumble & Bumble Surf Spray – Asa the weather gets warmer, styling my hair becomes more and more futile. I can curl it all i want but by the end of the day, humidity will win and I will have limp hair. I’m not a huge fan of how I look with limp, floppy hair so I seek products that will give it a little texture even when it won’t hold an particular shape. I have been using the Tigi Catwalk salt spray, and I do like it. It works pretty well. But I tried a sample of the Bumble & Bumble Surf Spray and I just like it better. It’s a little lighter, and I think the texture I get is even nicer, and it smells pretty good. The only thing stopping me is that it’s more money for a bottle half the size. I think my plan of action will be to use up the rest of my TIGI spray and then give this one a try when I’m ready for a new bottle. I can wait that long, patience is a virtue right?
That’s all for now, but I’ll be sure to let you know when I’ve done some more window shopping! Are there any must have spring beauty products that you’re lusting after?
