Weirdly enough I've never done a beauty wishlist and this being mainly a beauty blog, I thought it was about time I did. It wasn't difficult choosing products for this and I thought I'd go for some more high-end/expensive products in contrast to what I usually feature, which is more affordable highstreet goodies.

I think every make-up or skincare collection needs a few more expensive treats in it (if you can afford them of course) as with more expensive items you seem to treat them with more care and don't use them up really quickly. It's like your favourite pair of shoes, you only use them for special occasions. Well, I would view these sort of products like that and would hope to have them in my collection for quite a long time.

Of course, I've gone for two swish eye palettes. Now that Sephora ships to the UK everyone has gone absolutely mad for it but I have restrained myself due to the shipping costs and will continue lusting after the Marc Jacobs beauty items… I'm hoping to pick stuff up if I go on holiday next year to the US!

I've also gone for a super special face cream in the form of the La Prairie Cellular Swiss Ice Crystal Cream from the Swiss Ice Crystal Range, which promises to leave your skin feeling as smooth as silk and with more moisture than you can imagine. It is rather pricey at £210 so it would be an ultra special treat!

Of course I couldn't get away without featuring one of the Urban Decay palettes. I'm really craving these but still haven't forked out for them despite many, many other bloggers doing so. I think I have so many other palettes with similar colours that I'm kind of waiting for something a bit more dramatic.

I'm also very patiently waiting for the new Marc Jacobs fragrances. The bottles are just amazing and I want those more than the actual fragrance itself. Think how pretty it will look on dressing tables and in bathrooms… seriously though, I'm expecting the scent to be gorgeous summery-goodness. I can't wait to get a good sniff of these when they're on sale!

What's on your beauty wish list?
