Recently I have been finding myself wanting a lot of high street makeup so I thought I would compile a list of all the different bits I want and why... then treat myself to some of them!
I have been hearing so much about this for months now but just haven't got round to buying it. I do quite like Rimmel foundations, especially their Stay Matte foundation which I wear in summer. This however looks ideal for autumn as I love glowy skin. I could just re-purchase Bourjois Healthy Mix but I am currently using the Healthy Mix Serum and I fancy something new.
I never really bought in to the crackle nail effect polish from any brand but this croc effect looks a lot neater and quite interesting. I also like that it comes in burgundy so ideal for Autumn over maybe a metallic gold nail polish or even a nude polish. I think just a more sophisticated version of crackle nails.
MUA Cream Blusher & Nail Constellation
MUA seem to be coming out with some great products at the moment and I cannot wait to try the new cream blushers at only £2.00 - here. I think cream blushers are definitely lacking on the high street so I'm really pleased to see a budget range. Also the micro nail beads £3.00 - here look really fun to try out, either as a single accent nail or carefully placed so they give a polka dot effect.

Avon Supershock Gel Eyeliner
£3.20 - eBay
I recently purchased the Avon Liquid pen eyeliner in Brown (£2.99 - eBay) as I didn't own a brown liquid liner and I have been really pleased with it. So I decided to look for some more Avon eye products and discovered swatches of the Avon Super Shock Eyeliners and was amazed by the prettiness of them and from all the reviews these stay put all day. Golden Fawn and Blackberry are the two I want... for now!
Collection 2000 Illuminating Touch Concealer
£4.99 - Boots
After writing my Beauty Bugbears post I decided to not re-purchase my beloved YSL Touche Eclat as it just contains too little product for the price. So after a bit of internet research this was the pen style concealer than kept being compared to Touche Eclat. I need this ASAP now to try it out and see if all the review are right!

Soap & Glory The Breakfast Scrub
300ml/£9.50 - Boots
This is my favourite body scrub to use in the shower, just the right texture and so yummy smelling. It is on the pricey side for a high street product really but I love it so much and it does last quite a long time. This is ideal for in autumn and winter as well if you want something more comforting than fresh.
17 Wild Curls Mascara
9ml/£6.29 - Boots
The 17 Wild Curls mascara and No7 Exceptional Definition mascara are my favourite high street mascaras that I will always re-purchase. The wand for me is the perfect size and it creates a lovely fanned out lash line that looks quite feline if you add a little extra mascara to the out corners of the lashes. This also adds volume at the roots. I can't say a bad word about this mascara... however I know everyones eyelashes are different so not everyone will think this is as amazing as I do I'm sure!
