Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Plumped To The Max Set

 Give the gift of a beautiful full pout with Too Faced.

Say hello to the gorgeous Lip Injection Extreme Plumped to The Max Gift Set.

This limited-edition gift features three of the brands iconic travel-sized lip glosses to help deliver both instant and long-term plumping while deeply hydrating and nourishing your lips.

 

The set comprise of the Lip Injection Extreme Original, Bubblegum Yum and Strawberry Kiss.

Perfect for complimenting all skin tones, Bubblegum Yum offers a beautiful, pale pink, Strawberry Kiss packs a punch thanks to its vibrant hot pink hue and then of course there is the OG in all its transparent yet iridescent glory.

 

Retaining the same fabulously sweet and fruity fragrance, these pretty shades offer a subtle hint of colour while creating a beautiful, full pout.

Lip Injection Extreme intensifies the plumping benefits of the original gloss thanks to its medically proved blood vessel dilating technology and light-reflecting shine to moisturise and nourish while boosting your pout power.

 

Formulated with atelocollagen, marine filling spheres, antioxidant Vitamin E and nourishing avocado and jojoba oils this lightweight gloss leaves lips feeling pampered and full from first application.

Silky and light it feels more like a luxurious serum than a traditional gloss which can be heavy, sticky and gloopy.

 

Glide the soft wand across your lips and experience the light tingling sensation as it gets to work.

Unlike some plumpers which can create an intense tingling which can actually be quite uncomfortable, the Lip Injection Extreme offers a more gentle experience.

 

Within a matter of minutes, lips look and feel fuller while the moisturising and comforting feel of the gloss leaves your lips feeling smooth, soft and hydrated.

Despite its featherlight texture the gloss hugs your lips tight, meaning you won’t need re-apply every 5 minutes.

 

While Bubblegum Yum might just be my new favourite shade thanks to its soft, pretty cotton candy pink, each plumper is undeniably gorgeous in its own right.

The fab Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Plumped To The Max Set is available now exclusively from Beauty Bay and costs £24.

Lancôme Limited Edition Glimmering Star

 Treat yourself or a loved one (if you can bare to part with them!) to not one, but two truly stunning palettes this festive season from Lancôme

These absolutely stunning limited edition palettes have been given a truly eyecatching, dazzling makeover courtesy of French designer Eli Grita.

 

Sat against a back drop of sumptuous, rich gold and bold, vibrant hot pink you’ll find a glittering, gorgeous gold shooting star.

Aside from looking absolutely stunning, you may have realised that this star is a subtle nod towards the treasure you’re waiting to find inside, which too will help you shine just as brightly and with just as much beauty as the celestial gem adorning the compact.

The larger of the two compacts is the quite frankly, fabulous Glimmering Star Eyeshadow Palette.

Lift the mirrored lid and prepare to be blown away by a palette of eight splendid eyeshadows to help you create the most dazzling of holiday looks.

 

Featuring a selection of mattes, metallic and ultra-sparkling shades, the possibility of makeup looks are (almost) endless.

Inside, you’ll find the following shades;

Comet Pink: A matte, soft dusty rose

Cosmic Brown: A warm, soft matte brown

Black Star: A deep, dark matte black

Celestial Caramel: A metallic, warm caramel

Glimmering Gold: A dazzling, vivid gold

Cosmic Pink: A vivid, sparkling purple-pink

Galatic Taupe: A beautiful metallic taupe

Dusty Pink Gold: A shimmering, soft iridescent gold-pink

Soft to touch, finely milled and beautifully pigmented, these shadows are pure pleasure to apply.

The shadows glide across your skin weightlessly, imparting their long lasting pigments as they go.

Easy to both blend and build, the combination of different shades and finishes are simply stunning and allow you to create depth and dazzling finishes each and every time.

Fallen in love with the eyeshadow palette? Wait until you see the Glimmering Star Highlighter!

Presented in a more compact square palette you’ll find the most gorgeous highlighting powder.

Baked into the powder itself and sitting proud of the base is a glorious, iridescent star.

 

Featuring a universally flattering nude golden hue, this luxurious powder has been developed to create the final finishing touches to your festive look.

 

Finely milled and featuring a shimmer rather than a sparkling finish, this soft creamy powder is perfect for sweeping along your cheekbones and brow bones to create some serious highlighting power.

 

The pigment catches and reflects the light, creating the illusion of razor sharp cheekbones and a luminous complexion.

The only issue is that the palette is so beautiful to behold that you’ll find yourself trying not to ruin its ethereal presence!

 

Lancôme’s Glimmering Star Eyeshadow Palette and Star Highlighter are both available now and cost £45 and £34 respectively.

Merry Clinique Candyland Giftshop: Must-Have Makeup

 Step into a world of sweet beauty with Clinique’s Merry Clinique Candyland Giftshop.

Featuring an expansive collection of skincare, make up and fragrance gift sets at various price points, whether you’re looking for a secret Santa type gift or a bumper hamper style present, there’s a gift for you and your loved one.

 

The gifting collection is exquisitely presented with playful, sweet candy coloured hues and bon bon inspired stripes, reminiscent of sweet treats of Christmases past.

I got my hands on the gorgeous Must-Have Makeup Set and boy is this a real treat!

Neatly nestled within the cutest pink and silver tin covered in candy striped lips you’ll find four effortless essentials from Clinique to help you achieve your most stunning yet natural beauty look yet.

Carefully curated to allow you to create a glowing look In minimal time, each item has been selected due to its universally flattering appeal and gentle formulas, making them suitable for all skin types.

 

The first item that will catch your eye upon revealing the lid is the stunning Cheek Pop™ Highlighter in Celebration Pop.

This absolutely fabulous highlighter captures the radiance and beauty of nature thanks to its daisy shaped presentation.

 

Featuring a warm toned, light gold hue it is the perfect shade for injecting some luminosity into a dull, flat looking complexion.

Silky soft and rich in texture, it offers flawless, even coverage in just a sweep of a brush, imparting some serious illumination to cheekbones, brow bones or indeed anywhere else that you wish to highlight.

Easy to blend and build, it creates a soft, metallic sheen without a hint of sparkle or shimmer, making it perfect for everyday wear.

 

That said, should you be looking for a more powerful glow then it delivers on this too, simply add a little more and build to your hearts content.

Soft, feather-light and silky, it won’t even feel like you’re wearing it.

 Sticking with the effortless beauty look, you’ll also find the cutest mini of Clinique’s Almost Lipstick in Black Honey.

 

As its name may suggest, this little bullet of joy is almost a lipstick, but yet not quite.

Featuring a glossy, sheer, non staining lip colour in a warm almost-burgandy hue, it is what I would describe as a lipbalm-lipstick hybrid.

Not quite lipstick, not quite gloss, it has become a firm brand favourite thanks to its decadent, softening texture which is more like a balm.

Combining the benefits of both a lipstick and a gloss, it offers a subtle yet noticeable pop of colour to brighten and lift your lips with the light diffusing shine of a gloss.

Its universally flattering, transparent pigment glides across your lips offering a slip of lightweight colour while its emollient rich formula deeply nourishes and moisturises dry, parched lips for a supremely comfortable wear.

Whether you wear this alone to give your lips a boost or layer over lipstick, it should be a handbag staple for everyone.

After all, its not a bestseller for nothing!

No makeup look would be complete without a slick of mascara, so of course you’ll find a mini of Clinique’s iconic High Impact™ Mascara in Black inside this set.

This gentle mascara is suitable for all skin types and offers both volume and length to your lashes for instant drama.

Its silky, luxurious texture glides across each and every lash with ease while the soft  bristles of the wand grab and lift your lashes to noticeable thicken and lengthen.

 

Its glossy formula creates lushes, plusher bolder lashes while its smooth, deep colour creates serious impact.

Its non-clumping, non-flaking formula will see you through from evening to night and its delicate formula ensures a comfortable, non irritating wear.

Finally we have a mini Pretty Easy™ Liquid Eyelining Pen in Black.

I get that eyeliner isn’t an every-day essential for many, however there is nothing more striking than a sleek slick of eyeliner to complete your look and truly define your eyes.

This eyeliner pen is one of my personal favourite for two reasons; firstly, it doesn’t aggravate the delicate skin around my eyes, secondly it is an absolute breeze to apply thanks to it tapered, precision brush nib.

Boasting 24-hour smudge and budge-resistant wear, this elegant pen paints on pure, deep colour from thick to thin, allowing you to create a flawless, clean line in one steady sweep.

Silky and rich in colour, the pigments hug your skin without creasing, cracking or flaking and the felt tip pen design allows you to create the perfect curved line without making mistakes.

The result? A beautifully radiant complexion with maximum effect for minimal effort.

Just brilliant!

 

Plus, you also have a gorgeous little tin keep all your Clinique makeup essentials in going forward!

Clinique’s Must-Have Makeup gift set is available now and usually costs £37, however you can currently bag it for the bargain price of £29.60 as part of Clinique’s Black Friday sale!

Temple Spa Blissed Out

 Gift the gift of pure unadulterated bliss and serenity this Christmas with Temple Spa’s indulgent Blissed Out gift set.

Presented in a beautiful, rich purple box with gold stars, simply pull the golden ribbon on the side to slide out a box filled with goodies to calm and soothe a tired body and mind.

Blissed Out features three skin and soul soothing products alongside a beautiful Himalayan Salt massage stone.

Carefully curated, this collection is a complete ritual centred around you, helping to soothe your senses and relieve stress and tension.

We should all take time out from our busy lives to practice self-care and wellness and whether you’re looking to disconnect from the world for a time or reconnect with yourself o r a loved one, this exquisitely scented collection creates an aura of pure tranquillity.

The first item within this gift box is the Serenia calming & sensual candle.

This portable, aromatic candle allows you to create a peaceful escape from reality wherever you are.

 

Crafted with sensual and comforting Mediterranean essential oils including sweet orange, neroli, thyme, chamomile, eucalyptus, cypress, lavender, patchouli, frankincense and myrrh, this elegant and delicate scent fills the room, creating a sumptuous sanctuary of wellbeing.

Compliment this experience with the statuesque Serenitude calming & sensual mist.

Featuring the same intoxicating, aromatic notes of the candle, this body and room fragrance allows you to intensify the fragrant experience.

Sprtiz in the air around you and breathe in its warm, comforting aroma and let your troubles flow out from you with each breath you exhale.

 

Take your quest for relaxation to another level with the inclusion of the Serentini massage oil melt.

This luxurious, pale pink body balm instantly melts onto your skin, transforming from its sold form into a decadent, aromatic massage oil as it warms on your body.

 

Formulated with a host of Mediterranean skin-nurturing ingredients which have been chosen for their richness in vitamin E, vitamin K and antioxidant properties, it possesses the most beautiful, delicate yet discernible scent.

Featuring calendula extract along with a nourishing cocktail of beneficial oils including apricot, avocado, sunflower, hazelnut and prickly pear, the balm offers superior, long-lasting hydration and comfort along with muscle tension relief.

 

 

Silky and lightweight, it will leave your skin feeling incredibly soft, pampered and smelling simply divine.

To enhance your massage experience there is also a Himalayan Salts Massage Stone included within this gift.

 

Himalayan salt has long been used for healing in holistic therapies and are used for massage thanks to their ability to promote deep relaxation.

 When the stones are applied to the body, the heat sends a signal to the brain to turns off the stress state of being and turns on the relaxation.

 When our nervous systems are able to switch into the relaxation state of being, this allows not only our minds to relax, but our muscles begin to relax as well.

This magical, natural orb of beauty contains 84 naturally occurring minerals which are extremely beneficial for your skin and body.

The minerals in the Himalayan Salt stone assist in the detoxification process of massage; Massage alone is detoxifying because it is moving your blood and the lymph around in the body, helping to circulate the toxins out of your body.

The minerals in the stone actively help to draw out these toxins even further.

During massage the orb also helps to gently exfoliate your skin leaving it feeling softer and smoother, but that’s not all.

 

Himalayan Salt Stones give off negative ions.

For context, when there are too many positive ions in your body it can lead to inflammation, so  being massaged with the stone can help to balance the positive ions with negative ions, reducing inflammation.

You can use this stone as it is or with the assistance of hot and cold therapy by popping it in the microwave on a low temperate for 60 seconds or by popping it in the freezer for an hour or so before use.

Temple Spa’s Blissed Out is the ultimate gift for pure, positive, deep relaxation this festive period.

Blissed Out is available now from Temple Spa and costs £50.
