Gift Guide for Men

So I know this is very late on before Christmas but there are still a few days to get a few last minute items and I thought I would put a few on here for you to help you out. I find men are the hardest to buy for my opinion - they don't ever want anything. 

So here are a few suggestions that I though you might find helpful. 

Novelty Table Tennis Set £12, Beer and Food Book £16.99, Mens Shoe Shine Kit £12, Atkinson 24 Old Bond Street Shower Gel £29, Mandara Spa Everyday Essentials Kit £4, Shaving Set £95, 101 Sandwiches £12.99, Breaking Bad Box Set £55.40, Gucci Gulity for Men £49.

I hope this helps, even if you don't buy the exact things that I have suggested I find that looking at gift guides always helps sparks more ideas. 

See you tomorrow.

Gift Guide for Teens

So buying for teens can be a little tricky. It can be hard to know whether they will be happy with what you get or it will be a complete flop. It is hard to get the balance right I remember getting some terrible presents when I was a teen just because relatives still thought I was a child.

So I have divided this up into categories to make it a bit easier if you know the general thing your teen is into. 

For Teens Who Love YouTube:

Chances are that if you have a young teen in your family they will be into YouTubers, the likes of Zoella and Tanya Burr have millions and millions of fans, so it is lucky that they also have some products that you can purchase that they have bought out. From the Zoella range there is a whole range of make-up bags, body products and bathing goodies. And from the Tanya Burr range there are nail varnish, eye lashes, lip glosses and lots of lovely palettes as well. A few of my faves are the Kissy Missy Lip Balm, the make up bag and the Tanya Burr nail varnish in Duvet Day. There are also a number of different books by different YouTubers from The Glam Guide from Fleur de Force or The Pointless Book from Zoella's boyfriend Alfie Deyes. 

For Teens Who Love Beauty: 

I started getting into beauty when I was a teen and every beauty product I was given I coveted, I always wanted one of those huge collections that you see on YouTube. The best places to get products are in Superdrug and Lush, as things are not too expensive. You can get some lovely baths bombs in Lush especially some of the Christmas ones. You can also buy some nice palettes from the likes of L'oreal or Barry M. Another favourite is Soap and Glory products, you can buy little minis in sets which will please any teen. Another fave is Essie nail varnishes you can buy a nice set, which I would get if I din't have most of the shades or you can buy them individually. 

Everything Else:

Some other things I like to receive when I was younger (well still now too :p) pyjamas, dressing gowns and slippers, I'd go to Primark, Topshop and Next as they have a nice selection. Anything from Paperchase which looks cute, vouchers to your teens favourite shop and maybe even baking bits and pieces. 

Just try to think about what you would have wanted when you were that age.

What are you going to buy your family? Buying for my family is my favourite, just getting to see the look on their face is priceless. 

See you tomorrow.

Gift Guide for Skin Care Lovers

8. Elemis 25 Heritage Heroes. This is a celebration box for 25 years of Elemis, with a huge selection of face and body products. I know that this is extremely expensive but I know that some people are devoted lovers of Elemis, this is for them. £225 worth £425.16

9. Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Beauty Set. This set contains 5 deluxe samples of the different types of the Eight Hour Cream range, so if you know anyone who just keeps repurchasing this over and over again this is the gift for them. £42 worth £69

Christmas Gifting Beauty Edition

Hi,

So it's that time in year again. It's Christmas and time to start buying Christmas gifts.

Buying beauty gifts can be difficult, you don't necessarily know what people want or whether they already have something. Unless this said person has kindly provided a list for you here are some of my suggestions for beauty gifts.

After talking about how nicely scented the Ted Baker range was in my haul. I had to include a Ted Baker product as part of my gift guide. This Ted Baker Body Souffle Bauble would make the perfect stocking filler or maybe even a secret santa present due to its small size. The packaging alone makes it look luxurious and the size of the moisturiser is perfect for travelling.

Another cute little stocking filler, maybe for a girl who wants to try different higher end tan is this St Tropez Cracker, which has a 50ml St Tropez instant tan suitable for face and body. A bit of a bigger set here but still affordable is this set of three 50ml body buttercreams from Soap and Glory. This is perfect for someone who maybe hasn't tried the brand before or people who just like a good pamper.

One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six

See you tomorrow!
