Along with Barnes & Noble and Target, the store in which I could kill the most hours at a time is Sephora. Sometimes I don’t think this expansive cosmetics emporium receives the credit it deserves. Early to meet a date at the mall? Head to Sephora to freshen up and put on some perfume! Not too sure what to get your friend/sister/mom for Christmas? Sephora, no doubt, will hold the answer. I doubt there is a woman on Earth who could not find something she needs within Sephora’s walls. After all, it has everything any beauty-loving girl could want!
While I love everything about Sephora, I have to admit it can be a bit pricey. If I decided to just walk in and purchase everything I wanted, I would probably be in debt for a number of months (or years). I do love wandering in every once in awhile, though, and indulging in a mildly overpriced cosmetic accessory. To keep track of my beauty buys, I’ve compiled my own Sephora Wish List. Click through the gallery to view my top picks!
What would be on you Sephora wish list? Do you have any recommendations that I should add to my own?

WHY WOULD YOU MAKE IT A GALLERY INSTEAD OF A LIST WITH IMAGES
IT’S MORE WORK FOR BOTH OF USRAGE

I’m pretty sure I can blow a good chunk of change at Sephora myself, but I think my collection is pretty well rounded for a gal who wears makeup so rarely. The only things I might look to obtain/upgrade are:
1. Brightening blush.
2. New makeup brushes.3. Proper color-correcting concealer for under eye circles.4. Natural looking false lashes and adhesive.5. Liquid or gel eyeliner that doesn’t smudge.6. Translucent powder, along with fluffy brush.7. New fragrance. Currently eyeballing Marc Jacobs Daisy. Smells so good!
I have a set of Sephora brand eye shadows similar to the set you posted, it was pretty inexpensive but have yet to make it work for me. The colors aren’t true or well pigmented, very little lasting power even with eyelid primer, but it was just that set? Brand is unimportant to me as long as the product does what it is intended to do, but I have noticed that the majority of the skincare is Shiseido and most of my eye shadow is Too Faced. I do like nail polish, too. The brand I buy most often is not available at Sephora. My choice is China Glaze which I get at the local beauty supply store. Second nail polish choice is OPI. I am definitely not allowed to buy more at this point, I’ve got enough makeup to last me quite some time. (My own choice, of course.)

the ciate caviar nail manicure is easily duplicated for a lot cheaper by looking for microbeads in a craft store or online (ebay). i’ve seen them at the dollar store before as well, and it’s a lot less expensive… and you get to choose the microbead colors!
i also have that bb cream. it’s alright and does help to even my complexion but it doesn’t do much in terms of decent coverage. i have a decent complexion already so it doesn’t matter much to me but i’m not sure if it was worth the price tag. after it runs out i’m going to try a less expensive bb cream and see if it gives me the coverage i need at a better cost.
