Christmas Gifts For Beauty Lovers

Today's post is for the hardcore beauty lovers out there! As we are in November now, I can finally start creating some Christmas gift guides without looking far too eager because truth be told, I have been excited about the festive season for at least a month already! I absolutely love buying gifts for my friends & family and I get so much satisfaction out of picking out the perfect present for each of my loved ones. I have a few super girly-girls in my life and so they were the main inspiration for my first post! I love some of the products featured in this post so much that they are even on my own wishlist (aka the Zoeva palette and the Stila liquid lip set.) Furthermore, without any further ado, here are some quick links to the items from my first Christmas gift guide of the year!

Zoeva En Taupe Eyeshadow Palette / Cowshed Christmas Cracker / Clinique Get The Skinny Eye Set / Soap & Glory Three Times Butter / MAC Enchanted Eve Brush Bag / Victoria Secret VS Stripe Make-Up Bag / Stila Eternally Yours Liquid Lipstick Set

So guys, those are the gifts I have chosen to feature in my first guide of the year! The prices for these gift range from a super affordable £8 to a more luxurious £45, therefore, hopefully there is something here to suit your budget! What do you think? Which products stand out to you and what is on your Christmas wishlist this year? Please let me know by leaving a comment down below!

My Sephora Wishlist: Eyes

Hi guys, welcome back to the second installation of my Sephora Wishlist series! In case you didn't catch the first one, which was all about lip products, you can read it right here. The main reason that I started this brand spanking new series was to share with all of you some of my most coveted products. Living in the UK means that I do not have access to a Sephora store unless I want to pay an extortionate price to get items shipped over (which is something that I don't want to do!) Anyhow, onto today's post, I have put together a wishlist all to do with eye make-up. From palette to mascara to liner, there's a real mixed bag here!

Here are links to all of the items in this weeks wishlist:

Hourglass Modernist Eyeshadow Palette / NARS Soft Touch Shadow Pencil / Urban Decay Heavy Metal Liner / Givenchy Ombre Couture Cream Eyeshadow / Sephora Colourful Duo Reflects Eyeshadow / Marc Jacobs Style Eye-Con Eyeshadow / Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara / Giorgio Armani Eyes To Kill Mascara / Stila Eyes Are The Window Palette]

I hope you all enjoyed the second part of my Sephora series. Which products have caught your eye? What is your current favourite eye look? Please let me know by leaving a comment down below!

My Sephora Wishlist: Lips

One downside to living in the UK is that we do not have Sephora... you know, that wonderful and dreamy cosmetics store full of all of the make-up you could ever ask for! Of course, Sephora has recently started shipping to the UK but I cannot bring myself to pay for the extra costs of postage & packaging. Furthermore, it can be extremely frustrating (as I'm sure my fellow Brits will know,) because it's very difficult to track down certain products and brands. However, one of my Mums old school friends is going to America soon and she's offered to pick up a few bits and bobs for me! So, I have since been trawling the website for hours on end deciding what to put on my list of items for her to pick up.

This then inspired me to start a new series on my blog all about what products I would love to own from Sephora one day. Naturally, there were too many beauty goodies for me to list in one blog post and that's when I decided to break it down into sections. I am a huge lip product junkie and so that's the category I have chosen to focus on first. Now, here are all of the amazing products that are firmly on my wishlist:

Smashbox Always Sharp Lip Liner / Bite Beauty Smashed Agave Lip Mask / Too Faced Melted Lipstick / NARS Audacius Lipstick / Marc Jacobs Lip Crème / Dior Addict Lip Glow / Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick / YSL Rouge Volupté Shine / Bite Beauty Matte Crème Lip Crayon / NARS Lip Gloss / Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick

I hope you all enjoyed this quick little wishlist and I will be focusing on different categories in the near future, so stay tuned for that! Also; what is currently on your beauty wish list? Let me know as always by leaving a comment down below!
