Obviously peer pressure set in and I had to try it out for myself.

First impressions has always been a regular feature on my blog so when I got the opportunity to try out Marc Jacobs Beauty's Highliner I couldn't wait to start writing.

However as you can probably tell from the title I am unfortunately not writing to tell you about one of my favourite events of the year.
Read MoreI haven't done a beauty wishlist post in such a long time. Mainly because I don't want to look around the shops too much and spend a whole load of money. And also because on the lead up to Christmas, I want to save as much money as possible so I can get all of the gifts I need.
