UK wishlist

On Tuesday I will be going to Brighton for my graduation ceremony for my Master's degree and I am super excited! I am also excited that I will get the opportunity to do some shopping! I have been compiling a long UK wishlist and I thought I would share it with you. :)


1-Kiehls (£24) 2-Origins (£20) 3-Aesop (£23)  4-Lush (£9.95) 5-Nars (£21)


1. Kiehls Papaya and Pineapple face scrub: I have never tried a fruit enzyme scrub/mask before, but I think this is a good place to start. I have read they do wonders for your skin, so I have to give them a go.
2. Origins Drink up Intensive night mask: I have read amazing reviews of this and I need to see if it will help my dehydrated skin.
3. Aesop Parsley Seed cleansing mask: Again I will have to believe the hype and give this product a try to help my skin.
4. Two bottles of Retread conditioner from Lush: Smells amazing, makes your hair incredibly soft and each bottle lasts me at least 3-4 months.
5. Nars Luster blush: I have to stock up on my favorite blush because I am running out soon! All the blushes from Nars are amazing and I might even sneek in another blush purchase, if I find something I really like (not planning on it though).



6a-Rimmel (£8.99)  6b-Rimmel (£5.49)  7-Essie (£7.99)  8-L'Oreal (£6.99)  9-Soap & Glory 

6. Rimmel Wake me up foundation & concealer: A lot of people have been raving about this line, so naturally I have to check it out!
7. Essie Fiji nail polish: This is such a pretty natural color for your nails! I am kind of sick of dark nail polish and I want to get some more neutral colors.
8. L'Oreal Super Liner Perfect Slim: I used to use the old Super Liner, but I was not in love with it. I think the Perfect Slim might be better. Howeve, I would still love to hear your suggestions for a good drugstore liquid liner. :)
9. Soap & Glory products: I love Soap & Glory! They have really good, affordable products that smell amazing and I am definitely getting my hands on some of them. I am leaning towards the Sugar Crush line but I'm not sure yet.

Unfortunately I am pretty sure that this will not be all I buy from the UK. However, I would like to let you know that we don't have some of these brands in Greece (Lush, Origins, Nars) and those we do have the prices are 1.5-2 times what they are abroad. Ouch! I will try to stick to my allocated beauty budget but I can't be certain how well that will work out. :)
I will definitely be posting a UK haul and first impressions when I come back (on Valentine's Day).

Do you have any UK favorites that you think are worth investigating? :p Let me know!!


Talk to you soon.

  2. I usually go to the UK about every other year and to me it's makeup shopping heaven. I love their cheap brands like Sleek, Barry M, Natural Collection, and Accessorize.
