Christmas Gift Guide - Five Beauty Buys Worth Their Salt!

Hello!

Christmas is the one time of year we all panic about how to spend our money - normally, I have a basket full of stuff to buy and have noooo issues whatsoever finding things to spend money!.

For me, it's important that Christmas is as stress free as possible to give me the maximum enjoyment of the festive season** (**ehh, what I really mean is maximum mince pie eating and mulled wine drinking..) and I'm sure you lovely lot are in the same boat, which is why I've put together my gift guide full of five beauty buys worth their salt.

Tangle Angel Pro Compact - £19.50
This is a rose gold metallic brush which on one end has a mirror and on the other is the brush itself. I'm a big fan of a detangling brush considering I have quite long hair that tangles easily (especially in the 'lovely' Scottish wind and rain!). The Tangle Angel Pro Compact is the perfect gift for Christmas.

Real Techniques Bold Metals Eyes & Lips Set - £30

Real Techniques are my go-to beauty brand when it comes to gifting. I've never known anyone to be disappointed with the brand and the Bold Metals collection is IMO, their best collection to date. This is an all white set featuring the 200 Oval Shadow, the NEW 302 Pointed Lip, the 203 Tapered Shadow brush and the Brush cup which is specially designed to fit all nine of the brush collection. 

Real Techniques Limited Edition Drape & Colour Set - £21

Another gift set from Real Techniques is the Drape & Colour set which features four brushes, a beauty blender and a mirror. Brushes include the multitask brush, multitask cheek brush, the lip blur brush and the lip brush.

Sephora Collection 'Seeing Stars' Eyeshadow Palette - $15 (about £12)
This is an eyeshadow palette shaped like a snowflake which contains 16 shades of eyeshadow with varied textures and finishes. The palette has copper packaging and each shade has a red/copper hue. Some of the shades are quite similar but have a different texture which I love. At £12 this is a bargain and will leave the recipient desperate to go to Sephora soon!

Sephora Collection Cream Lip Stain Set - $12 (about £9/£10)
Who doesn't love a wee gift from Sephora? It doesn't have to be expensive either! the Sephora Collection Cream Lip Stain Set is less than a tenner and is the perfect gift for the beauty enthusiast. The set contains four mini cream lip stains (which btw are SO good!) Shades range from red to nude and have a matte finish.

So there you have my five beauty buys worth their salt! What will you be hoping to get or give this Christmas?
