August Makeup Wishlist

Hi guys! Welcome to another post. Today I'll be be sharing a few things that I've been staring at in Sephora/shops/online for quite some time. Basically this is a list of things I want that I can't get because I need to save up for other things :(

1. Smashbox BB Water in Light Medium

(RM)

If you read my blog, you'd have heard of my run in with Innisfree's BB Cushion. I've been looking for a lightweight product like a BB cushion so I was quite disappointed that they didn't have my shade. I found this BB Water in Sephora and I absolutely fell in love with it! It was so lightweight and hydrating! Apparently it has built-in primer technology and SPF30. They carry 8 shades and according to Jackie Aina, it's pretty good!

2. MAC Studio Sculp Foundation in NC42

(RM169)

The foundation that I'm using now is Revlon's Colorstay in Toast Hale which has a matte finish. It's great but after using kojic acid soap, I find that it looks a bit darker/reddish than my current skin colour.

I was interested in looking for something that wasn't so matte, so I decided to pay MAC a visit. In Midvalley there's a few guys that work at MAC and I actually wanted to get recommendations from them. Unfortunately they weren't there on the day that I came, but the lady that helped me was just everything. She was so friendly and helpful! She helped me find my shade, asked if I needed a sponge and just overall gave me the opposite of what people on YouTube have been saying about MAC artists.

Anyways, this foundation was quite pretty! I like the plastic tube and for a price that's only a bit higher than Smashbox's BB Water and has more product...I definitely think that it's worth a try so I'm currently saving up for it!

3. Benefit Brow Zings Eyebrow Shaping Kit in 04 Medium

(RM150)

The only Benefit product that I knew and swatched at Sephora before was the Hoola contour powder. When Benefit came out with their new brow range, they had an event and one of my seniors from college Laureen Quah was invited.

*Credits to Laureen for the pretty photos!*

I decided to check them out and omg these are so goddamn expensive. For something so small! (I'm talking about the kit and not the pencils btw). I really wanna buy it because the color's nice and I want to try using cream for my brows, but that price...ugh.

4. Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade in idk what color

($18)

I feel like this is the staple brow product that YouTube gurus use. Unfortunately it's not available in Sephora Malaysia :(

5. Etude House Color My Brows Browcara in Rich Brown or Red Brown

(RM21 on Hermo.my)

I switch between my NYX brow kit (Brunette) and Cathy Doll brow kit (Reddish brown). Since I have reddish brown hair now I've been leaning more towards the Cathy Doll one, and I wanted to take it to the next level by trying browcaras .

6. Memebox I'm Meme I'm Fitting Blender

(2 for RM29 on Hermo.my)

I've always wanted to try the Beauty Blender but it's too expensive for one piece of sponge (well, at least it is for my intern wallet). I came across this while browsing and searched up a few reviews on it. I have to say, for the price point and the feedback from reviews, I really wanna try this sponge out.

I've currently been using those trapezium shaped sponges from Daiso and they're great but I want to try a bulbous sponge :(

7. Any Orange Color Corrector

I watched one of Ddadoa's videos where she used a color corrector to minimize caking up her foundation. I've seen a few cream ones but I haven't seen any marker type ones~

8. Natural Brown Lenses

Speaking of Ddadoa, I also really like her lenses! They remind me of the ones Park Sora and the other 3CE/Stylenanda models wear

And that was my August makeup wishlist. I don't really "need" these products, but then again who does? Doing basic makeup like my brows and contour are really fun, so maybe in the future when I'm richer I might go on a spree and buy a ton of makeup but for now, WORK HARD EROS!

I hope this post wasn't too boring~ What are some of the products that you guys have been wanting recently?

As always, thanks for reading and see you guys in the next post!
