Gift Guide
With it being so close to christmas I thought I would share a few Beauty presents for those of you who have left your gift shopping to the last minute, or have no clue what to get the make-up junkie in your life (although lets be honest, if your here, you're probably the make up addict!) ;)
1. Nail Polish kit
The first wee stocking stuffer is the Ciate mini paint palette, which I picked up for $20NZD from 1Day sale. If you live overseas (i.e not New Zealand, or Australia), you can probably pick it up for a much better price. This kit comes in the cutest pink gift set, and has 8 different mini-polishes (which are actually a really good size). With a mix of a few glitters, metallic and bold christmas colours (The deep red is perfect for christmas!) this kit is a great gift. It obviously doesn't have to be something super similar to this kit however, and any nail kit- pre-made or one that you put together yourself- can make a really thoughtful gift.
Ciate also do some really great other sets which you can check out here
2. Mini Make-up
Anything little and undersized automatically becomes super cute, and this Too Faced mini bronzer and Kabuki brush kit is the perfect example. A lot of mini-me cult favourites emerge in the holiday season, and as such they are a great opportunity for gifts that top off a present, smaller gifts for friends, or an adorable stocking stuffer. The thing that makes this Too Faced 'Tan without the Twinkle' Matte kit even better as it has the signature chocolate soleil scent.
I grabbed this Too Face kit from Sephora, for around $8 USD.
Now this gift can become expensive pretty fast, but if you look in the right places you can get an amazing deal on amazing products. For a make-up brush kit thats not too overwhelming, check out bossy cosmetics brush kit which is really affordable at $25NZD (Currently on Sale!!) and free shipping within New Zealand for a limited time (better hurry!) Bossy also do some great brush cleansing options. Check them out here!
Or of your looking to get a pretty full brush set as a main gift for that lucky someone, check out kits such as Real techniques (which you can get for a steal on IHerb), or xoBeauty.
I hope this gave you a few idea, good luck with your gift shopping and happy holidays!
Love Becca
