Can you believe December is almost here?! Wowzers that went fast! And just in the nick of time for all that Christmas cheer, December is chock-a-block full of beauty buys we’re just itching to get our hands on. Want to see what’s so good about this month? Go on…
Glasshouse Beverly Hills – Pink Lemonade Candle Triple Scented Candle
My inner barbie is pining for this Beverly Hills Pink Lemonade Triple Scented Candle. At first whiff, breathe in the scents of pink grapefruit, cherry, muguet, rose, lemon, sugar crystals, pink musk and amber. Think cocktails around the pool, endless summer soirées and driving down palm tree lined streets in a convertible. California dreamin’, baby.
Elie Saab La Collection Des Essence, $295, Myer
What better time than December to spoil yourself with something luxurious like a new perfume? The tricky part will be choosing just one from the six essences on offer from Elie Saab. My personal choice is Essence No. 2 Gardenia, which carries a light floral scent with mysterious undertones of Indian sandalwood. Summery, fresh, and 100 per cent real woman.
Inika Mineral Foundation
When a product acts as a concealer, foundation and powder in one, why bother with anything else?! This season flaunt your best complexion (hello flawlessness) without clogging your pores with all that gunk. Plus, it’s got SPF 15 to guard you from damaging UV rays. Big. Tick.
Designer Brands Longwear Matte Lip Gloss
Highly pigmented and ultra moisturising, this matte lip gloss is a handbag necessity for touch ups throughout the party season. And with five shades to pick from, you’ll find one that’s perfect for you. Or you could just take them all? Merry Christmas to me indeed!
Rosehip by essano Intensive Hydrating Body Lotion
December = holidays = beach = the need for smooth skin, so stock up on this intensive hydrating body lotion. Lock in that moisture for supple, smooth and holiday-ready pins. Bring. On. Summer.
Clinique Pretty Easy Lip Palette
Thanks to Clinique, the world is your oyster! What makes this lip palette especially cool is that not only does it have eight lip shades to choose from (!!!) there’s also four empty wells and a spatula to mix and make your own custom colours. Yep, it’s a winner!
M.A.C Fluidity – Pro Longwear Paint Pot
What you need in the sweltering summer months is a cream eyeshadow that’s not going to budge, no matter what. Well M.A.C has heard our prayers, and sent us these magical Paint Pots. Highly pigmented, these blendable eyeshadows are your answer to every festive occasion.
Estée Lauder Resilience Lift Firming/Sculpting Oil-in-Créme Infusion
What do all women want? Skin that’s smooth, plump, sculpted and defined. And here’s how to get it. For dry-prone skin, apply this intensive infusion of deep hydrators and ultra-restorative lipids. With a densifying complex and advanced lifting complexes, the moisturiser also helps skin boost its natural productions of collagen and elastin. Basically, science rules, and is the answer to super beautiful skin.
Beauty Theory Make-Up Brush Cleaner
When you love make-up as much as we do, there’s no way you can get by without one of these. Get rid of grime and old make-up so that the next time you use your brush set, they’ll be squeaky clean. So when you’re cleaning your make-up off, make sure to give your brushes the same kinda love.
Paula’s Choice Resist Skin Firming Line Minimizer
Skin firming line minimizer, you say? Well I’ll be! Put your best face forward this December with the help of this little wonder. Reduce those fine lines and wrinkles, and increase your skin’s elastin for skin as smooth as a baby’s bottom. It’s the best present you can get this Christmas.
It is amazing the products of the past that are still current today.
