5 THINGS ON MY BIRTHDAY WISHLIST

Hello, my lovelies, welcome back to my blog. It's my birthday this week (Thursday the 5th, to be exact) and so I thought I would share with you five things from my birthday wish list. Obviously, I'm not expecting to receive anything for my birthday, these are just some things that I would like - whether that be for my birthday, or things I'd purchase myself in the future.

1. The Amateurs Follow Me by Sara Shepard

The first thing on my wish list this year is actually a book by my favourite author, Sara Shepard. I've written about her work before on my blog and my words still stay the same - she is incredible. Everything she writes is amazing and I'm hooked on her work. I actually wrote a book review on the first book in the Amateurs series earlier in the year and so I'm very excited for this second release to see what Sara has in store for the characters - and readers!

2. Lee Stafford Rainbow Shine 240 Hair Straighteners

I recently realised how gross my hair straighteners actually are. I've had them forever and, even though I don't tend to use heat on my hair (apart from my hair dryer), I'm really wanting to get more into styling my hair and so I really want some new hair straighteners. These Lee Stafford ones are super pretty and I think they'd be perfect - especially because they aren't as expensive as GHDs.

3. Violet Voss Holy Grail eyeshadow palette

Let's face it: you can never have too much eyeshadow and this palette is just SO ME. I think it's actually beautiful and I've heard so many great things about Violet Voss as a brand so I would love to try this palette - though I am also tempted by the Too Faced Natural Love palette.

4. Benefit Total Moisture Facial Cream

This is probably one of the products on my list that you might be expecting, especially if you're a long term reader of my blog. The Benefit Total Moisture facial cream is my favourite moisturiser ever  but I just can't bring myself to keep buying it at the price it is, so at Christmas and my birthday, it's always on my list.

5. Rodial Dragon's Blood Hyaluronic Tonic

This is another one of those products that I can't bring myself to splurge on. It's an expensive toner and, even though it is incredible and I love it, I just can't do it. At £39, it's way too expensive for me to purchase myself consistently - I'm a student, after all! That's why it's always on my birthday and Christmas lists.

So they are five things that are on my birthday wish list for this year. I hope that you found this post interesting and enjoyed this little insight into my wish list. Have a lovely week and I'll see you very soon!
