Congratulations on your achievement :) that's huge. My Christmas list is already under way! I'm intrigued by the Lush advent calendar though I'm not sure it's available yet. I'm also seriously craving some ZOEVA brushes.

Thanks for commenting Aimee. I haven't tried any Zoeva brushes but I heard nothing but good things.
DeleteCongrats on the followers! :) My christmas list is currently swamped by Makeup Revolution products :') x
ReplyDeleteJordan | Keep Dreaming ♥
Thanks Jordan! Haven't tried anything from Makeup Revolution and haven't heard talk of this brand either.
DeleteYay, Eli! 600 followers, really? That's HUGE :) :), my more sincere congratulations! :)
ReplyDeleteI have a looong wishlist but maybe I'll stick to practical ;) Even knowing that what I crave for is... you got it, makeup ^^ Maybe some of the Marc Jacobs products, that recently arrived to Spain. But in any case what I'm wishing for is makeup challenges to make me grow on this. I want to get to get higher and higher in what I love to do...
I will write it in my Santa (or Reyes, here in Spain) wishlist letter, but it sounds more as a new year wish, isn't it? :)
(Maybe I should also add getting 600 followers in Bloglovin' too... what do you think? Lol Really, I'm very very happy of hearing this wonderful new from you :) ).
Thanks María, I was also waiting for Marc Jacobs products to be sold in Spain but unfortunately they won't be available in the Sephora nearest to me :( Hopefully I'll be able to get them online somewhere. I think you don't need that many followers as long as YOU know your blog is awesome, and let me tell you I wish I could write such informative and well explained blog posts like you do. Keep writing and I'll keep following you. XO's
DeleteOh! You're so sweet, thank you! ♡
DeleteI must confess I feel really happy with my followers. They can be not many, but I really know I can count on you! (Did you see what happened with the Bitácoras Prize? This is really unbelievable for a blog that only has less than 300 followers in Facebook and Twitter, but I've been in the 22° place for all the beauty and fashion blogs in spanish language! I can't be happier :) )
You deseve that and more, hope you get in the second round. Good luck!!
DeleteCONGRATS!! At the moment I only have 2 quite random things I'm hoping for - Sims 4 and a tangle teaser
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love my Tangle Teezer I only wish I'd gotten it sooner. My mom borrowed it when on holiday and she immediately fell in love with it. Now she has one of her own :)
DeleteCongrats on all the followers :) I really enjoy reading your blog. I really want a beauty blender but it's too expensive for me to justify getting myself at the moment.
ReplyDeleteThanks! The BB is another item you regret having waited so long before getting it, I love it. I just purchased the Real Techniques dupe? so I'll tell you how that goes, it's definitely a cheaper alternative.
Deletecongrats!! you did a great job on your blog :)
ReplyDeleteFor xmas i'm planning on getting the clarisonic *slowpoke much?* haha
Thanks hun ! I've got a cheaper alternative to the Clarisonic and I love it, it's called Dermanew microdermabrasion system. I've had it for 3 years now and I don't plan on switching over to the Clarisonic for the forseable future.
DeleteCongratulations, I absolutely love your blog and have been an avid reader for months. My christmas list is slowly growing but seeing as its only october the current items are a beauty blender, Real techniques set of makeup brushes and a silver button necklace . WELL DONE once again.

Hi Katie, thanks for your lovely comment. If I didn't already have the BB and more than enough brushes, those items would be on my wish list as well, good choice! See you around :)
DeleteCongratulations on hitting 600 subscribers!!! Here's to many more to come :)))
ReplyDeleteMy wishlist is endless but to name a few I've been really wanted to try the Benefit's Majorette new blush ahh their promotions get me hooked on their products all the time!! The Benefit Holiday box blush set is at the top of my wishlist too and I was excited when I saw that on yours as well :P
Thanks Fifi. I don't usually wear any blush so I thought the Benefit palette would help me add this step to my routine. I also like that they have included the Hoola bronzer as the one I have is too shimmery to use it for contouring. Hopefully we will both get what we're wishing for this Christmas...
DeleteCongrats on your latest achievement! You have definitely worked very hard to get to where you are now, and I have witnessed some of this journey myself. I promise to drop by more often! And keep doing what you do ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for being such a great blogger friend. I'm so happy I started blogging. See u around :)
DeleteCongratulations lovely, thats such a great achievement! I really want to try out the Estee Lauder double wear light, i've heard such amazing things about it :)
ReplyDeletexxxx
Thanks hun. I love Estee Lauder products but I haven't tried any of their foundations. Good luck and see u around :)
DeleteI am wishing for a new red color lip color and matching nail polish this season. **wink =)

DeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteMy wishlist for christmas is the Tarte off the cuff blusher palette xx
Thank you! I love love love Tarte products but they are not sold over here :( The Lights, camera, lashes mascara is amazing, I recently had someone from work who was going to New York bring me one, lol.
DeleteMy christmas list is the Naked 3 palette and the Core Collection from Real Techniques
ReplyDeleteWhat an excellent choice, I don't own any of the Naked palettes but when I saw #3 I immediately knew it would be my favourite if I had to choose. Good luck!
DeleteLove surprise giveaways!
ReplyDeleteThe one thing I am hoping for this Christmas is everyone to be happy and just seeing people smile :)
I'm glad to know that, I thought people would only enter a giveaway if they liked the prize. I'll try my best to make your wish come true but it's a tough call... but I can tell you this, I'm happy and I like smiling a lot :)

ReplyDeleteThank you ! I haven't tried that particular mascara yet but it seems to be very good.
DeleteWhat a fantastic idea! Really want to win. Anything involving MAC would be great, would love to try it :-)
ReplyDeleteMAC is always a winner, lol. Although I prefer UD or Tarte eye shadows... but that's me, I have very oily eyelids and all shadows crease on me :( Good luck !
DeleteCongratulations on 600 followers! That's such an achievement!
ReplyDeleteI love that you've kept it a surprise! My Christmas wishlist is for lots of Cath Kidston goodies!!
Thank you, I still can't believe anyone would take the time to read my posts.I had to look for Cath Kidston online as I haven't heard from this brand before, very pretty, I like it !
DeleteOne product on my Christmas wishes is... mmmm, tough one but it would have to be a collection of Bobbi Brown make up brushes :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried anything by Bobbi Brown but it seems like a good choice. Good luck !
DeleteThis looks like a great giveaway! The surprise adds a nice touch :)
ReplyDeleteI am hoping for Christmas is Hourglass powder in diffused light (omg so gorgeous)
Thanks, I haven't had any luck with my previous giveaways so I thought to give it a different approach. The Hourglass powders have also been on my wish list since last year :)
DeleteAmazing giveaway!
ReplyDeleteOne thing I would love this Christmas is the UD Naked 3 Palette, the colours look amazing.
Thanks ! The Naked 3 is my favourite even though I don't own any of the 3. Good luck !
DeleteHey Eli! Congratulations on 600 followers!
ReplyDeleteMy Christmas wish is for health and happiness to all my family and friends this year
Thank you ! If it was up to me I'd be spreading health and happiness all around. Hope you have a great Christmas this year :)
DeleteYou know Christmas it is a magical season, a beautiful season that I keep in my heart like if I was 4 years old. Since it is magical than I always hope for miracles by that time...not to many times those miracles come true. I was speaking to my mom and she said I hope you can come home for Christmas, and I said...I hope so too...God can do miracles. I haven't seeing my family in almost 8 years they don't even know my kids :-( so there it is...for Christmas I will be hoping and wishing and praying i can see my mom and dad,my siblings and the rest of the family again.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity
lorisayoub@gmail.com
That's a very long time without seeing your family. I do hope and wish for you and your family to be reunited and have a wonderful Christmas. God bless you !
DeleteWhat a fab giveaway! my Christmas wishlist this year is some new makeup brushes and a some Mac blusher.
ReplyDeleteThanks and good luck !
DeleteAmazing giveaway. For Christmas I'd love another bottle of Marc Jacobs Eau so Fresh because the bottle I have is nearly empty and it's my favourite!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on 600 btw, I love you blog!
Thanks for the lovely comment and good luck !
DeleteCongratulations on such an amazing milestone and thank you for doing this giveaway!)
ReplyDeleteI hope to get YSL touche eclat foundation and a Chanel lipstick for Christmas...
Thank you. Wow, fancy products !
DeleteCongrats on hitting 600 followers! That is definitely a huge amount ^.^ And I like your wishlist, I hope you get some of them. My wishlist mostly consists of books to be honest, and a basketball to practice with ^.^
ReplyDeleteThank you Olivia. I already got the Benefit Cheeky Sweet Spot blush palette and it's gorgeous. I have loads and loads of books to read so I'm not in need for more at this moment. I'm trying to get to 52 books before the end of the year and I'm doing pretty good. I'll write a post about it in January. See u and good luck !
