May Wants

May Wants by tinypockets featuring Essie

This month's wants are getting me ramped up for summer. I picked up the Almay lip color in Ulta a few weeks ago because I have a $4 off coupon. HOWEVER the product was on sale for less than $4 so I couldn't use the coupon and therefore, didn't get it. I am upset but coping. I will buy this beautiful Apricot Pucker color in the near future. I can feel it!

I also really want a mint colored nail polish for summer. Pair it with silver or gold glitter and that will be the PERFECT summer mani. 

I've had my eye on the ELF lip exfoliator but every time I go to place an ELF order, it's sold out. Boo. ONE DAY I WILL HAVE IT. 

I need a lip brush so that's definitely a want/need because lip colors. 

I'm also really dying to try the NYX Jumbo pencil in Milk because everyone raves about it, which I'm assuming is why it's ALWAYS sold out at my Ulta. 

Last but definitely the most expensive, is Mary Loumanizer by The Balm. I am just dying to try more highlighters and shimmers this summer for a more dewy daily look and I've had my eyes on this one for a while. I should just man up and buy it but I'm s broke, guys. So, so broke. 

January Wants

My boyfriend introduced me to Wunderlist, which is a kick ass app that syncs up with my phone and computer and Chrome so I always have my to do list and shopping list handy. 

Unfortunately, it also gave me a wishlist and MAN is it long. I've picked out a couple of items I've got my eye on for my list of January wants. The only item Polyvore didn't have was my MAJOR want: Maybelline's new primer Baby Skin. It's supposed to be a dupe for one of Smashbox's Primers and it's only $7 so I need it in my life like... yesterday. 

Here are the rest of my January wants:

Hard Candy's Glamoflage concealer. 

A matte topcoat (NYC has a cheap-o one I'm willing to try first)

Milani lipstick in Sangria (purple!)

ELF's Gotta Glow blush, which is supposed to be a dupe for Nars Albatros highlighter

What's on your must have list right now?

August Wants

As you know, I'm pretty broke. I work a not so great job for a really low wage and book sales are down so money is tight. Plus I've got all the debt that young people have now. Unpleasant. That doesn't mean I can't drool over makeup and make the occasional purchase (cough, haul, cough.)

So in my lusting after beauty products... here are my August wants.

• Nume Petite Flat Iron in Hot Pink - I have a KICK ASS coupon I got from my first IPSY bag so whenever it's in stock, I'm going to pick this bad boy up. Alas, everytime I seem to have a little extra cash monies, this is out of stock. WORK WITH ME, WORLD.
• Essie Nail Polish in Black Licorice - All right, Essie polish may just be a dream. I may end up picking up a bottle from the dollar tree or a small set from Ross with a black nail polish in it but I really want black polish. I'm channeling my inner 15-year-old goth kid. 
• Milani Baked Blush in Coralina - I have been DYING to try Milani baked blushes for a while. I don't know why I always pass up a good chance to pick them up but I do. Waiting for a good sale, I guess. 
• NYX Natural palette - You know already that I sing the praises of NYX's Nude on Nude palette. It is the best purchase I've ever made. Ever. So when I saw this little set, I was so excited. Those matte shadows just look so... amazing. I want to put them on my face. Again, waiting on a really good Ulta sale Come on 40% off NYX sale at Ulta. WHERE YOU AT?

What's on your wishlist for August? Do you have any of the products I want?
