Christmas Wishlist!

When I'm asked what I would like to receive for Christmas, I never know what to answer because I really don't need anything. However, if you insist, I can find some things I would love...

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters I must admit I was sceptical about these when I first started to hear about them because they seemed overpriced for their sheerness, but the more I read about them on blogs, the more I want them! Their color appears to be easily buildable so this puts my first worry aside, but still, it doesn't appear to have a lot of product in one tube... anyway, I'm especially lemming after Strawberry Shortcake, Cotton Candy and Crème Brulée.

14.5 oz Slatkin & Co. candles from Bath & Body Works Yes, I still think it's crazy to pay $20+ for a freaking candle, but you ladies got me sooooo curious about them, not to mention I'm slowly starting to believe that  you actually have to pay that crazy amount of money for quality candles that really smell something. Because I'm into sweet and fruity scents, I'm especially lusting after Marshmallow Fireside (toasted marshmallows and sweet vanilla cream wrapped in the aroma of rich smoldering woods), Winter Candy Apple (a spicy surprise blend of candy apple and orange zest, with highlights of cinnamon, neroli and winter musk) and Frosted Cupcake (a delicious blend of butter cream frosting, sugar and fresh vanilla bean).

Sex Bomb, Golden Wonder, Mrs. Whippy, Vanilla Fountain

LUSH goodies Of course, Christmas time is the perfect time to stock up on LUSH products because of their amazing Boxing Day sale! Last Christmas, my boyfriend surprised me with tons of goodies because they had a 2 for 1 sale on everything in the store! I already have enough soaps to last me a couple of months - or years! - but I love their bath bombs and I'm curious about their bath melts and their bubble bars, which I have never tried before.

Magic Wand, Gingerbread House, Candy Mountain, Ma Bar, The Melting Snowman , MMM Melting Marshmallow Moment, Pow Wow Lip Scrub

IPL hair removal on my legs I'm already having IPL (intense pulsed light) on my underarms (almost done, yey!) and my bikini area but I tell you, this sh*t is freaking addicting! Yes it's incredibly pricey but it's soooo worth it in the long run! Think about it: no more shaving or waxing, no more razor cuts or burns, not more ingrown hairs, no more time wasted! Having the whole leg treate with IPL would cost somewhere around $3000 if I'm right but my clinique (Clinique Aqua) often offers amazing special such as 1/2 leg for $149 per session (the average person needs between 6 to 10 sessions).


MAC gift card Because I'm always lemming after something from MAC (*cough*lipsticks*cough*) but I feel so bad to dig such a ridiculous amount of money on beauty products... yes, these are quality products and blahblahblah but I honestly don't really care about MAC except for their lipsticks because I have yet to find a drugstore brand that is similar in formulation - and no, I absolutely don't need more lipsticks.

  4. Haha c'est comique, je suis allée magasiner pour Noel hier soir avec mon père, et je lui ai fait justement acheter le rouge à lèvre Revlon pour mettre dans mon bas de Noel! J'ai essayé le testeur à ma job, et wow!!

    Pour ce qui est de l'épilation au laser, connais-tu l'existence des machines SensEpil? La machine coûte 500$ et les cartouches 50$. Avec une cartouche, tu peux faire de la tête au pied une fois, ou 10 fois ta ligne de bikini et les aisselles. Elle est en vente au Pharmaprix. Petit truc, achètez la durant un 20x les points, ça vaut VRM la peine.

    Étant une employé, j'ai eu un beau discount et je l'ai payé 350$ moitié moitié avec ma mère et les cartouches nous coûtent 35. Juste avec la machine et l'achat d'une cartouche, on a eu pour 140$ de points en rabais sur la carte Optimum puisque c'était un 20x les pts.

  6. My wish list is so similar to yours! The Slatkin candles are nice but if you have a Bed, Bath & Beyond near you (do you have them in Canada) they have this brand of soy candle with only 8 or so scents in the collection but they are cheap, burn cleanly, and smell amazing!

  14. The lip butters are really so fab.. I was skeptical as well but was able to pick one up with a coupon.. now I want them all! I'm really picky about lip products, but I LOVE these. If you can get your hands on some, do! ;)

  16. The lip butters look amazing, not something I would normally go for but i'm intrigued now!

  17. @Nora Schu: Looks like we have similar tastes! I'm glad you like my wishlist (:

    @Macbella2 : I know, I've always wanted sparkly shoes like those too, sooooo gorgeous! Happy Holidays to you too Mel, try to take it wasy (:

    @Emie. : Oui j'en ai entendu parler de ces machines mais j'avoue que je suis sceptique... ça marche vraiment? Est-ce qu'il y a des risques de brûlures? Je veux dire, les techniciennes sont formées pour utiliser ces machines, il doit y avoir une raison... non? Ça marche bien pour ta mère et toi? As-tu remarqué une diminution des poils?

    @Sarah S. : I'm not sure if we have this store here, I keep hearing about it but there's none in my area. I've always wanted to try soy candles, thanks for the suggestion!

    @Mybe : Je sais, j'attends juste ça le Boxing Day ahah!

    @Bailey: I'm not sure we have this deal in stores in Canada but they do have it on the website sometimes, but the shipping is $20+, which is freaking crazy in my opinion! This is really the only that keeps me from ordering some ):

    @Dayday: Exactement! Je n'ose pas trop demander des choses que je pourrais m'acheter moi-même, mais qui sont trop dispensieuses ou que je n'achète pas pour d'autres raisons!

    @Arezu : I have signed up and I receive their deals, the problem is that shipping is around $20 which I find pretty crazy!

    @WitchHazel: I think I'll wait for a sale or for a coupon, like you (:
