I love the holidays! My inlaws are already asking my hubby and I for ideas on what they can get for us. To make gift giving a little easier for my family I've put a few items on a Sephora wish list. I'll probably add to it, but here's what I've got so far. And yes, it's all perfume at the moment.

Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey

Armani Code for women - smelled this in a magazine and couldn't stop smelling the paper!

Ralph Lauren Notorious (This is the one I'm really excited about. I've tried this in Macy's a few times now and have just fallen in love with it)

Versace. I received a sample of this from Sephora and just love it. Very bright and cheerful.

Prada Infusion D Iris

Dolce & Gabanna The One. This is a beautiful warm soft oriental.
I'm not sure how many of these I'll actually get because I got a few other ideas floating around besides Sephora stuff but it's fun to make wish lists, isn't it?
Have you started a beauty/fragrance wish list yet?
Martick Jewellery
The UD brow kit, a couple Stila brushes and smudge pots, and some tea tree oil cleanser.
1Bobbi Brown creamy concealer. Bobbi Brown tinted moisturizer. Make up brush cleaner.
2I haven't picked out anything specific yet.
I do want to try Make Up Forever's HD powder
3Oh, Suze - great question!!!
Dolce and Gabbana's the One
Tarte's The Vanity limited edition palette
BE Extreme Glimmers Kit
MUFE High Def Powder
MUFE HD Invisible Cover Foundation
MUFE HD Microperfecting Primer
Clinique Repairwear Night Cream (I'm almost out!)
Clinique 7 Day scrub cream
UD Book of Shadows Palette
And I need a good concealor for the undereye area - any suggestions, ladies???
4Oh I do have some lemmings over at Bath & Body Works as well, specifically some lotions/sprays in Moonlit Path, Japanese Cherry Blossom or Sensual Amber. I think I am liking Midnight Pomegranite as well.
5nice bottles!
6Thank you for posting this Bluesuze - (my fave is Shalimar fm Guerlain)...
Martini, isn't Benefit supposed to have a really good under eye concealer? I've been using either an Almay wand one or else my MAC StudioFix concealer and I'm not entirely thrilled with either of them.
7I got the Benefit Erase paste, but I am not liking it so much - it is kind thick...maybe I just use it wrong??
8Ladies Bobbi Brown corrector and the concealer will change you life. It makes your eyes bright and dewy! I had a make over from Bobbi Brown's master artists four years ago and have worn it ever since. When I was done I got to meet Bobbi Brown and she gave me some lip gloss!
9Wow, sexylibrarian that is so cool that you met Bobbi! I will hit the Bobbie Brown counter at Nordy's later this week and try it out! Thanks for the tip!!
10So do you think you need both (the corrector and the concealor)? Or would the concealer be enough for under eye circles and imperfections. I do like that it's a creamy consistency. That's what I don't like about my studiofix concealer.
11Well I will tell you what the guy who did my eyes said when I asked him the same question: "It's like asprin you don't need it every day but girl when you need it you really need it!" So I got both and I wear them both every day.
12mac eye shadows, mineralized shadows, concealers, tons of mufe shadows, mac brushes, smashbox face primer, and whatever else people wanna get me. lol.
13I'm gonna stop at the counter and see what they recommend for me! I'll let you know what they say!
14
sl!
15Chanel Inimitable mascara. It's something I hate to buy for myself because it's expensive for a mascara ($28!) but it's incredible--lengthens, plumps, curls all in one.
16Sexylibrarian is right, the corrector is a must have trick to use under any concealer! Or if on a budget use NYX Rouge Cream Blush on your under eyes then apply your concealer.
As for my holiday wish list..
Benefit 24K Sexy Gold Set
MUFE HD High Definition Powder Kit
UD Flavored Body Powder - Honey
Vincent Longo - Lip Luster Set
Tarte - Glam On The Go
M·A·C Little Darlings: 5 Pigments & Glitter
BE Genuine Jade Face & Body Color
..for now
17Man, I am so excited to go to the BB counter now - between sexylibrarian and demure's recommendations, I am so hopeful that I have found the perfect undereye concealer for me!!!
18Martini please do a blog and let us know what you think!
19I will, Suze!!!
20The think I love most about BB is that it really enhances your features without looking like you are wearing a ton of makeup. She is great at making women look beautiful and natural.
21thing not think!
22Ok, I was just reading the comments regarding Bobbi Brown concealer and corrector, and I just went online and bought them! I need a new concealer, the one I have always wears off so quickly or dries funny. It was time for something new. I also just bought MUF HD concealer. Now that's I've spent $100 on myself, I'd say I don't really want for anything else makeup wise, surprisingly!
23Scratch that, reverse it. I didn't buy MUF HD concealer, I bought the MUF HD powder.
24Someone has excellent taste in scents.
25Ha ha ha I read Stickys comment as 'The Unibrow kit'
Ahhh I am super tired and off to bed
PS. Nothing on my list yet as I am currently still in denial about it being NOV!!!!
26My Xmas list:
27Tarte The Vanity Set
Sephora Brushes
A Few DDF Products
That's pretty much it, I have alot of stuff I need to finish before I buy anything else. No one knows what I want from Sephora specifically..but I'm sure everyone will just get me Sephora gift cards...which is just fine.
I'd say some hot jeans, of course a trip to sephora/mac. I gotta start collecting eye shadows.
28________________________________________
Will be weighing in at 190lbs next summer
And tons of shopping!!!!
I'd love to get the Chanel quad.
29Ohh now you have got me interested in the Bobbi Brown stuff!!
30That Issey perfume is one of my all time fave, seriously.
I wish for the MAC holiday stuff, Chanel Quads and perfumes (ALLURE), more viktor & rolf perfumes.
31Ok, ladies - I was so excited, I went to the BB counter at Nordy's during lunch and had a makeover! I have to say, I am loving the corrector and concealer!! I will come back and let you know my thoughts after using it myself for a few days, ok? But right now, I have to say - it is light and natural looking and boy does it cover!!
32Yay!! MartiniLush!! I told you that you would love it. It is so easy to do on your own too. Did you get the concealer kit with the setting powder?
BTW I love that you call it Nordy's.
33Hey, Sexy! (Oh, LOL, that sounds like I am being obscene with you! Do you mind??) I did get the concealer kit with the setting powder!
And Nordy's...yeah, we Seattleites always call it that!
You know, their HQ is still here and they run focus groups sometimes. I have participated in
a few and also participated in a web site usability study for them. I got $100 Nordy gift cards each time. Plus, one of my suggestions was incorporated into their web site and I got sent an
additional $100 gift card because my idea was used and was successful! I
Nordy's - it is
my favorite department store!!
34You can call me SL if you are uncomfortable with the sexy! And of course sexy if fine too
. Nordy's is my favorite too! I have a pair of Michael Kors shoes in my book marks that I am going to buy before the big sale is over, but I digress.
35That is too cool about getting the gift cards. I would love to do something like that! Nordy's gift cards are what I tell people I want for Christmas every year. I got to visit the Flagship store in San Fran this summer and it was fabulous!
Some items on my Sephora wishlist are:
Laura Mercier Oil-Free Tinted Moisturizer
36Anatasia Brow Stencils
BE Buxom Lips in Candi
Urban Decay 10th Aniversary Kit (2 e/s and deluxe size UDP.)
Miss Dior Cherie
Burberry The Beat
Makeup Forever HD Clear Primer
*Anniversary
37I think I like calling you Sexy!
I got invited to a private shopping event they are having here in December - the store will be open only for invitees - PLUS if you make your purchases on your Nordy card you get 10x bonus points!!!
So excited for this - I will make sure to tell you all about it! Maybe I can
get some suggestions from all you BPJs for some good makeup purchases!
Thanks so much for mentioning the BB products, Sexy - I honestly hadn't thought of BB in all the options I was going through. I have you to thank for hiding my under eye circles!!!
38You are very welcome! It's the best!
39I REALLY want the Clarisonic thingy -- but I am having a hard time making up my mind since it's so pricey. I mean really - that would be my only present under the tree
Any advice????
40Unfortunately, anything that ends up on my wish list usually end ups on my credit card very quickly...
I'm interested in a few UD shadows and perhaps the nono...
Martini, do tell us about the concealer/corrector when you get a chance!
41Scully, I have heard so many good things about the Clarisonic, I have been contemplating too!!! Areidz just bought one and is doing a review on it.. here is a link to that post:
http://teamsugar.com/group/88093/blog/2334094
Also, I Bellasugar also did a review on it, too! Here is a link to her Clarisonic Diaries post, week one: http://bellasugar.com/1746504
Hope that helps you a bit!!!
42Thanks Martini!!! You're a doll!
43I just ordered the clarisonic brush - on Sephora's FF Sale.
I hope it works for me.
Otherwise my list includes things I couldn't have bought at Sephora this past weekend.

44Bobbi Brown - Extra Spf25 tinted moisturizer, stick foundation, creamy concealer, gel eyeliner and brush,
