The Beauty Pie gift shop is officially open and with it comes an array of the perfect gifts for everyone on your list (and for yourself, obviously). From targeted skincare kits, luxe French fragrances, gorgeous makeup trinkets that work for everyone and the latest self-care indulgences, it’s all available for a LOT less than these beautifully-formulated, beautifully-packaged items would cost you at Typical Retail price.
Not sure where to start? With over 10 years experience as a Beauty Editor, I’ve shared what I’ve added to my own Wish List to help inspire your gifting spree…
The Little Luxuries
For me, festive beauty is all about those moments of luxury, whether it's an indulgent skincare treat or a flash of sparkle in my everyday makeup routine. So as soon as I saw the Limited Edition Glimmer Shots, they went straight to the top of my wish list. Available in two shades (Gold Beam - a true, radiant gold, and Minky Gleam - a molten, glimmering brown), I bagged them both with a view to create the ultimate shimmery, smoky eye at the first opportunity.
The Chic Storage Solution
I cannot resist the Ultimate Vanity Case. As a beauty-obsessive for many years, I’ve amassed a mountain of products (including totally untouched, limited edition palettes and discontinued favourites purely for sentimental value), and I’m forever searching for ways to contain my collection in the chicest possible way. This vanity case is fabulously super-sized, it’s super luxe dark green velvet with gold-tone hardware and it even has a soft vegan-leather handle. It’s the perfect dressing table tidy and exactly what I’ve been looking for.
The At-Home Facial
All of the merriment and late nights often leaves me looking puffy (not what I want in my Christmas photos). The Fruits & Flowers Facial Sculpting Kit is just the pick-me-up my tired skin needs. It’s got the Jūnana’s Facial Infusion that’s packed with 17 plumping, moisturising and reviving oils as well as the Luxe Facial Roller, so I can do a really luxurious facial massage that leaves my face looking far more sculpted and my skin restored.
The Beauty Sleep Booster
I’m lusting over the Sleepeasy Pillowcase. It’s made from 100% pure Mulberry Silk, which helps to reduce friction during the night, meaning no more skin creases and no more bedhead. Plus, the silk doesn’t absorb moisture like cotton does, so all my skincare actually stays on my skin!
The Quick Fix Eye Mask
I need the Reviving Rose Quartz Eye Mask in my life asap. If I have a bad night’s sleep or am up late, my eyes look so puffy in the morning. The quartz helps to stimulate lymph flow (if you pop it in the fridge before using it, the cooling powers will help to reduce puffiness even more) while delivering a much-deserved moment of peace and calm. Plus, Rose Quartz is meant to dispel negativity and replace it with uplifting feelings of calm, which I’m not going to say no to!
The High-Tech Cleanse
My resolution for next year is to up my cleansing game (I’ve become lazy over the last year or so and it’s starting to catch up with my skin, which is looking dull and congested) so the Super Facial Vibrating Cleansing Brush is just what I need. I love the sound of the technology – it has this Kinetic Skin Cleansing via micro-vibrations that helps to break down dirt and impurities from deep within pores, while simultaneously massaging and boosting circulation. It’s the lazy way to do hard-working skincare and I’m so here for it.
