It’s the festive season and if you’re anything like us, you’re already adding beauty products to your Christmas wishlist. With SO much choice, here’s a compiled list of the best beauty products to give the clueless family member in your life guidance or find yourself the perfect gift to yourself (you’re worth it).

Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush

Selena Gomez’s new brand, Rare Beauty, is proving to be more than just another-celeb-beauty-brand with its amazing liquid blushes. Blush in winter can really give your skin some much needed life and colour. Liquid blush also tends to be longer lasting than powders which are typically the first makeup product to rub off. 

The Rare beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush comes in some beautiful shades, has gorgeous packaging and the formula is both pigmented and blendable. Plus, they’re even doing a Christmas gift set with three shades to try to find your favourite. 

Glossier Balm Dotcom

The beauty brand with a cult following, Glossier, famously only puts products on sale for Black Friday, so it’s the perfect time to grab their much-loved Balm DotCom, a multi-use lip and skin balm. Balm Dotcom is smooth, non-sticky, long-lasting and comes in a range of flavours that all smell amazing. Some even have pigment to give your lips a natural pop of colour for that low maintenance look.

The Ordinary haircare range

Skincare fanatics will already know about the affordable but effective skincare brand, The Ordinary. Lucky for us, the brand has recently branched out into haircare, and has released products with promising reviews. The affordable but popular Sulphate 4% Cleanser for Body and Hair and Behentrimonium Chloride 2% Conditioner are both lightweight, fragrance free, vegan, and silicone free - what’s not to love?

Babyliss Air Style 1000

If you’ve been longing for the Dyson Airwrap but can’t quite stomach the £479.99 price point, why not add the Babyliss Air Style 1000 to your Christmas list instead? At a fraction of the cost of the Airwrap, this drying brush comes with multiple attachments and temperature settings. It promises that post-salon look you can never seem to master and is great for giving flat hair some much-needed volume.

Too Faced Natural Nudes Eyeshadow Palette

While a bold eyeshadow look can be amazing and is so much fun to do, there’s really only a handful of occasions where you’ll find yourself opting for a bright blue or green. We think a good neutral palette is a better present idea and is something you’ll actually be able to use for everyday makeup. The Too Faced Born This Way The Natural Nudes Skin-Centric Eyeshadow Palette has some beautiful shades for natural soft-glam looks, as well as some shimmers for those dressier occasions. This has 4.7 star reviews and reviewers note that it is pigmented with little to no fallout.

A professional facial 

Buying skincare for someone can be hit or miss. This is because skincare is an incredibly personal thing - everyone’s skin is unique. While you can’t usually go wrong with a luxury moisturiser, it’s a tricky ground to tread and you may even end up offending the receiver by suggesting they have a skin problem to fix!

That’s why if you’re looking for a skincare gift, why not opt for a professional facial? Facials are suitable for everyone and can be tailored to specific skin types. They’re great for anyone who needs to unwind, relax and be pampered.
