With Christmas fast approaching, time is running out to find that perfect gift. I thought I’d put a list of goodies together that would excite any beauty lover (you’re welcome)! Whether you’re strapped for cash or feeling flash, I’ve got you covered. From makeup to perfume and skincare, I’m sure you will find something that special someone will love. I’ve even stuck in a few stocking fillers for you!
SKINCARE:
The Moringa balm really is the crème de la crème of cleansing balms. There’s just something about using a balm to remove your makeup which is so wonderfully soothing. This cute mini gift set is just £10 and comes with a micro fibre cloth.
The Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser is one of those classics that everybody should try at some point in their lives. I have many friends who use this religiously and I have been through a good few tubes myself! It gently removes your makeup and smells divine. It’s like a little pamper session for your skin every night. This set is £20.75 and comes with two musling cloths.
Charlotte Tilbury
This Red Carpet Skin Travel Kit is quite possibly the ultimate skincare set. It includes a clay mask, a cleansing balm, her infamous Magic Cream, her highlighting primer Wonderglow, the Supermodel Body shimmering cream and a cleanser. Pretty much everything you could possibly need right? It’s a whopping £59 but beautifully packaged in a mini suitcase box. Plus they’re all minis and everything looks cuter as a mini…
BODYCARE
I do love a good Soap and Glory gift set. Without fail, I always get myself one at this time of year. The Bright and Bubbly set is only £10 and packed with the Clean On Me shower gel (this makes me look forward to shower time!), Hand Food so you can have yummy smelling soft hands all the time, The Scrub Of Your Life which is one of my favourite exfoliators, and last but not least the good old Righteous Butter. All my faves packed into one box – PERFECT!
The Coconut Body Butter is by far my favourite moisturiser which I have been using for many many years. The scent is gorgeous and it seems to be the only moisturiser to keep my skin feeling soft throughout the day. At this time of year they always do lovely gift sets. I have been eying up this Coconut set which includes all of their Coconut collection for £28.
Laura Mercier products just ooze sophistication and luxury. This Almond Coconut Milk luxe body collection is exquisitely packaged and for £49 it includes a body wash, body cream, bath cream and Eau de Toilette. A real treat for those who like to pamper themselves in luxury.
MAKEUP
Yes it’s Soap and Glory again… What can I say, not only do they do great skincare, their makeup is pretty awesome too! This Eyes Box has everything you need to get your eyes popping for £18 with a dual ended brow pen, an eyeliner, a kohl pencil and a mascara. You’ll have her smouldering in no time!
Tarte is one of those brands that I wish was more readily available in the UK. I love everything I’ve tried from them. They do some great gift sets perfect for this time of year. I particularly like this Miracles of the Amazon collection. This set includes a palette packed with warm neutral and really wearable tones, a dual ended brush, a mascara and a lipgloss, all packaged within a cute makeup bag. It really is the full package and at only £34 it’s a no brainer.
Charlotte Tilbury
Another Charlotte Tilbury gift set… What can I say? I’m Tilbury obsessed! She has put together so many wonderful makeup treats, but this Filmstar Killer Cheekbones set stole the show for me. It doesn’t come cheap at £82, but includes her infamous Filmstar Bronze and Glow bronzer and highlighter palette along with a brush to apply it of course. A real showstopper of a present!
PERFUME
I didn’t quite know what to expect from a perfume produced by a magazine, however I was pleasantly surprised. It’s sweet fruity scent is right up my street! The classic bottle would look lovely on any dressing table and at just £16.80 it’s a real steal.
Marc Jacobs Decadence
This is my new perfume obsession! I love it so much that I’ve written a whole post about it here and featured it in my November Favourites. Not only does it smell divine, the bottle is in the shape of a handbag, complete with chain and tassel. Who could want anything else? You can get a gift set which includes the perfume and a scented body lotion for £75.
TOOLS
Now it’s no secret that I’m a fan of these brushes. I’ve dedicated an entire post to them already! The Bold Metals collection is gorgeous and guaranteed to put a smile on their face. This set includes three brushes and a cute little clutch, all for £32!
Sensio Spa
The Deep Pore Cleanser is perfect for those who want to get into a skincare routine or for those who are on the go but still want to do a good cleanse. It’s easy to use, gentle and leaves your skin feeling nice and clean. Perfect for removing your makeup after a long day and to unclog your pores to keep your skin feeling fresh and looking healthy. At £50 this little tool could be their new best cleansing friend.
STOCKING FILLERS
Beauty products are a great stocking filler and I’ve included some of my favourites all under £20. Move over chocolate, makeup is in the house (or stocking)!
Pixi Glow Tonic £18
So there you have it, my top gift picks for fellow beauty lovers. I hope that the person on the receiving end of these is as happy as I would be!
