Christmas Gift Guide: Beauty
Any beauty product and tool is always a great gift. Don't think that if you are gifting a beauty item it means that you think a person needs to do something. It is mostly a pampering gift and one that normally we wouldn't think or treat ourselves in buying it. So go ahead and take inspiration from this guide.
I think that these 2 face rollers are the best presents ever. One in jade and the other in pink quartz, they are from Lacura at Aldi and you can try and be lucky to find them in store because online they were sold out on the same day they came out. Despite living next to an Aldi I couldn't put my hands on them. Add a face cream so that they can be used to massage the face and neck for the ultimate pamper session. You can buy individually or try to find them both. Aldi skincare range is also very very good. www.aldi.co.uk
I love gift sets, they always have those things that you never buy for yourself, so receiving it as a gift is a lovely gesture. Baylis & Harding has got a great selection of gift sets and among the many products I have chosen this Luxury Slipper Set where you can find a Foot Soak Crystals in Sweet Mandarin & Grapefruit fragrance with a matching Foot Lotion, and once your feet are relaxed, you can wear this pair of fluffy faux fur slippers. www.baylisandharding.com
|Face masks are very popular at the moment and the most colourful and fun are the ones coming from Asia like Japan and Korea. The Dewytree masks are Korean and as well as the wash out masks they have these sheet masks that are incredible. I am very intrigued by the Black Mask Honey Moist but also the Ginseng one and the 3 Steps Vita capsule with peeling foam. Among the many retailers you can find them at Amazon. Dewytree range also has eye patches and nose strips. www.dewytree.com
Maege Multi Correction Anti Age is a luxury anti wrinkle cream and for who is worried that gifting anti wrinkle cream I will say that using it before getting wrinkles will just prolong the wrinkle free skin because the face will be supple and moisturised. If you are over 35 some wrinkles are already creeping up so no need to be offended. The Maege Multi Correction Anti Age, hydrates the skin revitalising it with its creamy and silky texture. www.maege-skincare.com
I consider beauty gift anything related to the art of pampering. So just to feel like you are in a private Spa, hope to receive or buy this fluffy cotton robe by The White Company. It is available also in black, grey or cream and the softness of its fabric gives that luxurious touch after a long fragranced bath. www.thewhitecompany.com
Make up brushes are among those tools that are never enough. Of course you need to clean them properly in order to have them for a long time but the more the merrier. Choose this Eye in 5 set by Beauty Crush and you get Tweezers, Eyelash Curler, Angled Eye Brush, Flat Eyeshadow Brush, Eyeshadow Blending Brush and a shiny holographic bag to store them and taking them with you when travelling. Argos stocks them and you can also add a nice eyeshadow or mascara to make the gift more complete. www.beautycrushcosmetics.com
Start the new year with a bright smile and caring for your teeth enamel with these products from Regenerate. Among the Advanced Toothpaste and the Foaming Mouthwash and the monthly Advanced Serum that increases enamel hardness, it will be possible to improve the health in your teeth minimizing damage that occurs even when eating something healthy like lemon, fruit juices and also red wine. It is available at Boots or online at www.regeneratenr5.co.uk
The scent of these products by Plenaire is amazing. The Rose Jelly make up remover is so light and dissolves every trace of make up, while the Skin Frosting Mask is nourishing and leave your skin hydrated. Add a nice headband and build a small beauty hamper with these fantastic products that are sustainable, vegan and 100% cruelty free and their packaging is fully recyclable and BPA free. Find it at Liberty London or at its website www.plenaire.co
I would collect all of the beauty tools by Opatra, where technology and skincare go hand in hand. From the tool to massage the eye area with skincare products, to the one for the neck which is always a neglected area, they are all fantastic and beautiful to look at. Also you are not forced to use their own skincare products, but they work with anything. www.opatra.com
La-Eva products are great, with their vintage look given by the glass bottles that resemble apothecary containers. The fragrances are delicious and they are very sustainable up to the point that some shops that stock them can refill the bottles and you have even a discount. This Limited Edition Capsule Box contains all the products in small sizes of 85ml each that can be refilled from bigger bottles and also a 30ml bottle of jasmina oil. The box has got an artwork by Nathalie Moisy. Products are organic, vegan and ocean friendly. www.la-eva.com
