London make-up list

There won't be any posts tonight, because I'm going to practice so I'll be coming home pretty late. Therefore I will do a long post now to add up to the one I will loose. I promised you to do a post where I tell you what I'm looking for in London. It's going to be in five parts. Clothes, shoes, bags, make-up and accessories. I will also do one where I tell you a bit about where in London I am going, and what I'm going to do while I'm in London. When I am in London, I will blog about new things I've bought or anything like that. Maybe I'll show you whole outfits if I have any.
So, then I'll begin. This is the make-up part for London;

Lipstick
I'll be looking for a few colors in lipsticks. I adore lipsticks because they can do the little extra to your outfit or look. I'm hoping to find the M.A.C store in London, but if I don't I hope they sell M.A.C somewhere else, and it's London so they probably do so. I'm just gonna buy one or two of each color, even if I show you more colors on this post. It's gonna be hard to decide!

I'll be looking for a sort of brown/red color, a pretty dark color. This color is actually really great for autumn, and I found some great colors from M.A.C that is similar to the color I'm looking for, so I'll try them out.

"X-S" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Verve" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Spice is Nice" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Polished up" by M.A.C

There was several similar colors, but I didn't care to post them all.

I'll be looking for a skin-colored lipstick. I love these because they give your lips this pale look, like your lips are sort of melting into your skin. I know many people do concealer on their lips to have this look, but I prefer skin-colored lipsticks instead. M.A.C had a few of these colors, but it was actually just one I really liked and a friend recommended it too. Here it is;

"High Tea" by M.A.C

I'll be looking for a shocking red color, like really red. I know M.A.C doesn't really have the shocking red color because of all the chemicals in red-lipstick but they do have something similar. They had several colors for this, so here's the ones I cared for;

 Lipstick
"Capricious" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Chili" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Lady Bug" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"M.A.C red" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Russian red" by M.A.C

I'll be looking for a peach and a weak pink too. These colors highlights my eyes, so this is the reason I want them. M.A.C had several colors like this, but I'll only show you some of them;

 Lipstick
"Speed Dial" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Please me" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Pink Plaid" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Pink Noveau" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Chatter box" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Brave" by M.A.C

And I also found some random colors I liked;

"Plumful" by M.A.C

 Lipstick
"Saint Germain" by M.A.C

Eye-shadow

I'm only looking for two eye-shadow, and that's a peach and gold color. I had a peach color that highlighted my eyes perfectly, but it's empty so I have to find another one. I have way too much eye-shadow at this moment, but the peach one I'm looking for is the color I use every day, and the gold one I just really want! The peach color looks like this;


I really like gold to my eyes, because I have somewhatgold spots in my eyes. Here's what gold color I'm looking for:


I sort of just want it to shimmer a bit gold, not look like my eyelids have been covered with melted gold and then frozen to hard gold...

Blush

I do not own any blushes at this moment, but I really wish for one. I'm not the kind of person to wear a lot make-up unless I'm actually going somewhere, so the blush will probably only be used when I'm going to parties or birthdays or anything like that.

I want that classic weak red color that almost everyone owns. I don't want a color that screams, just a little hint of a color. That has a lot to do with the amount of blush too, but.. I found a really good color and I will look for it in London. Here it is;
 Cremeblend Blush
"Posey" by M.A.C

I also want a light pink color, because pink looks really good to my green eyes;



Mascara

And then we're down to the last one. I really need a new mascara! I've been using L'oreal's 4D Architect something for a long time now, and it's starting to bore me. It's a good mascara, but I don't think it fits me so well. I have really long eyelashes, so I need volume for them. The 4D mascara sort of just gave them length. I've been looking at some new fashion magazines and I came over a commercial for a new Maybelline mascara that I would love to try.

It's called "The Falsies Flared wings" or something, and it looks really great for volume.
So I'll be looking for this on the tax-free and in London if I can't find it in the tax-free.

I tried a good mascara a few years ago, but I don't quite remember how it was. I just remember I liked it and was really sorry when it got empty. It's not a really cheap mascara like Maybelline is, so I trust that it's worth it. It's a Helena Rubinstein mascara and it's called "Lash Queen Feline Blacks". I love the look on the mascara jar too. It has leopard print!


So there you have it. These are the make-up products I'll be looking for when I go to London.
If I can't find it I'll still be looking for it when I come home, so I'll keep you posted on this!
There are some other products I want, but they're unimportant. Like a bronzer and a eye-primer. I also want some products from The Balm, but I don't have all the money in the world.

I'll be coming back with more before I leave next thursday!
