My Weird Wishlist: Beauty... IN SPACE!!!

Affiliate Links

Happy OH CRAP TAXES ARE DUE day, everyone! Will you be getting a refund? I'm getting a small one so naturally I've started to think about all the interesting things I could purchase with it.

Today I thought I'd share a few interesting beauty items I've come across recently that all have something in common: They're out of this world! Get it? Har har. (Someone stop me now, please. Think of the children.) Do you have a tax refund burning a hole in your virtual pocket too? Well, here are some spending suggestions for you. You're welcome.



BH Cosmetics Galaxy Chic Baked Eyeshadow Palette ($14.95):

Ipsy sent out little samples from this palette a few months ago. While I wasn't lucky enough to receive one, I have been coveting it pretty hard since then... Pretty colors? Check. An awesome planetary theme? And how! Apparently I'm not willing to move heaven and earth (har har har) to get my hands on it, but I keep sighing at the pictures so maybe I should just suck it up and buy it already?



Comet Vomit Big Balm Theory Bubble Gum Flavored Lip Balm by GemCityTiffany ($3.00):

From the GemCityTiffany Etsy shop

From the Etsy product description: As the Big Bang super heated and cooled the ingredients to form the universe, I have lovingly melted down pure organic bee's wax and organic cocoa butter, mixed them with essential oils and vitamins and cooled the mixture to create these nourishing out-of-this-world lip balms.

Space-themed indie lip balm with a sense of humor? I'll take a hundred.



Sleek i-Divine Palette in Celestial ($11.99):

From the Sleek website

The Sleek i-Divine palettes are another one of those things that I have looked at repeatedly, but never gotten around to purchasing. I believe the "Celestial" palette came out around the holidays, and it's filled with lots of lovely sparkly shades that probably would have been perfect to wear to Christmas parties. It might not be Christmas anymore, but it's a party on my eyelids every day so I still want it.



Novelty mirror compacts in Trip to Mars and Galaxy Stars ($12.50 each):

These items/images are from seller che655 on eBay. I'm not sure if this qualifies are embarrassing or funny, but the mirror compact I'm currently carrying around in my purse is a red plastic one branded with the Little Debbie logo. Someone was giving them out at a street festival. Why was Little Debbie giving out mirrors emblazoned with their logos as opposed to snacks? I'll never know. But in any case I'd love to upgrade to one of these cool, spacey compacts - they look fun and contain both a regular mirror and a magnifier mirror, which is actually pretty useful.



Darling Girl Cosmetics Stardust Glitter Topcoat Collection ($3.75-$7.00 each):

Science quiz time: This collection is named after a bunch of moons. Can you tell me which planet each one goes with? I'll be honest - I had to look a couple of them up. Thanks for the inadvertent astronomy lesson, Darling Girl. Anyway, these glitter topcoats are meant to worn over other pigments or eyeshadow bases for a stunning, sparkly, multi-dimensional effect. There are swatches on the product pages, which I recommend looking at if you want to spend all of your money right now. Charon and Prometheus are my favorites, in case anyone was wondering.



Starrily Nail Lacquer Glitter Toppers in Starveganza and Space Candy ($12.00 each):

Screenshots from the Starrily website

Space-themed and star-shaped glitter topcoats seem to be a bit of a "thing" with nail polish companies these days, but I was especially drawn to this duo by Starrily because the color combos are just so great. I bet both of them would look awesome over a dark base (like navy or purple). Mysterious like the night sky.



Darling Clandestine Supernova Sway Fragrance ($9.00 for the solid, $18.00 for the oil):

From the Darling Clandestine Etsy shop

This isn't technically on my wishlist because I've already tried it, but it should be on yours. That, and I'd like to pick up a bigger bottle eventually. The Etsy shop listing describes it as "Dark and bright and dark and bright again, deep musks streaked with mint, black resins with subtle flashes of orchid and buttery honeysuckle." That may sound like an odd description for a scent, but it's actually sort of accurate. To me it smells like swirling black and flowery purple with an almost metallic edge - sort of how I'd imagine distant stars to smell, if they could have a scent. It's weird but actually very wearable and appealing at the same time.
