These treats and treasures make perfect presents – or you could just put them on your Christmas wish list and give that to Santa.
1. We want foundation that provides amazing coverage and prevents a shiny, oily face (especially for summer!). All this, plus lasting from day to night was unheard of – until now. For radiant, matte, and flawless skin, we recommend Becca Matte Skin Shine Proof Foundation.
$70.00, available from Becca online store.
2. Save your girlfriend, or yourself, the troubles of rushing to and from nail salons during the busy Christmas season. Get an affordable, and incredible glossy salon shine at home. How may you ask? Why with Sally Hansen Mega Shine, of course!
$14.45, available from Priceline Australia.
3. Sun kissed cheeks, without the sun. Bronzer allows you to rock a golden, shimmering hue. It adds an exotic, tropical tinge to any look. I love Curtis Collection by Victoria, in Island Goddess. It’s the perfect shade of bronze, not to obscure or overpowering.
$49.95, available from Curtis Collection online store.
4. There’s no point spending money on foundations, if you’re using your hands to apply it. Creating an even, flawless finish is always a little bit of a challenge, which is why it is essential to use the right brush. We adore M.A.C Foundation brush, it never fails to provide a smooth and natural coverage!
$75.00, available from M.A.C online store.
5. No doubt, you and your friends discuss whose hair is deader than the others, and how you all long for smooth, healthy hair. Wish granted. Slick a few pumps of Sachajuan overnight repair through your locks, and witness the miracle first thing in the morning. Shine, silk and microscopic split ends, what more could you want for Christmas!?
$57.00 available from Sachajuan online store.
6. Going somewhere? The festive season is filled with weekends or months away. But, filling your travel bag with toiletries isn’t ideal, not only because it takes up so much space and weighs a tone, but it may leak everywhere! Molton Brown bring us
body washes and lotions in a jetsetter pack. Neat, cute and super easy for whatever trips you, or and your friends have planned!
$40.00, available from Molton Brown online store, or David Jones.
7. Not sure what gift to get, why not get something that will never date? Red lipstick. Not only does it match the Christmas colour theme perfectly, but red lips can be worn to any occasion, all year round. NARS lipstick in “Short Circuit” leaves a creamy, long lasting lip. We think it’s absolutely irresistible!
$39.00, available from Mecca Cosmetica walk-in store, or online store.
8. We all have that friend who sports a pale face with a tanned body, why not subtly drop a hint? Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel is ideal for anyone who is cautious about applying self tanner to the face. It is applied like a day cream, and leaves skin bronze, smooth whilst providing a basic coverage.
$65.00, available from Chanel walk-in store, or online store.
9. Beach, chlorine, sweat and heat aren't the ideal way to get long, silky locks. Want to know the secret of having gorgeous hair during summer? MUK Spa. The treatment is part of the MUK Spa trio (shampoo conditioner and a treatment). Show your hair some love and TLC – it’s the least we can do during all the summer havoc!
$81.00 for the Trio, available from Price Attack walk-in store or online store.
10. Scent has the power to bring back so many memories. Capture all the holidays and summer moments, and bring them home. Within a few minutes of lighting the “Lotus Flower” Ecoya candle, your house will smell inviting, exotic and festive! This gift is ideal for anyone – you may even feel tempted to keep it for yourself…
$39.95, available from Ecoya online
