When it comes to Secret Santa, I am very much up for wrapping the funniest gift I can find within the budget that has been set, however... for my final gift guide I've gone with the serious and useful and here it is.
I shared the amazing Ted Baker Bath and Body set in a previous post and for this post comes the Ted Baker Body Spray Raspberry and Orange Blossom 50ml (£4) or the Ted Baker Mini Body Spray Rose and Cassis 50ml (£4). Depending on whether you prefer fruity or floral scents, both of these body sprays will tick a box, really well priced for 50ml offerings and great for any age.
From Invisibobble which, as a brand is a lot of fun and very useful to have as part of your haircare routine, I have a small collection of products to share. Starting with the adjustable HairHalo You're A Star (£10) and it is not only an adjustable headband which is comfortable to wear, it also features golden details which are perfect for party season.
- Sprunchie Original time to shine - Be bright like a star and bubbly like champagne with our limited edition SPRUNCHIE The Sparkle is Real. This scrunchie is gentil to the hair and provides a comfortable wear during your days and nights. Metallic gold details and neutral tones of the scrunchie make it a perfect addition to all of your festive days.
- BARRETTE Glitterally |Time to Shine (£8) - Leave a little glitter wherever you go and create simple and glamorous hairstyles in just a few seconds. Strong hold, anti-slip and metal-free BARRETTE now receives a glittery champagne design. Simply the perfect match with any outfit and festive occasions that are coming our way!
- Hair Ties - I usually always have an invisibobble hair tie around my hairbrush or my wrist and for this gift guide the Gold Rush Time to Shine options, with their bit of gold sparkle, are perfect for party season.
Is any makeup look complete without using Eylure lashes? In this guide I am including the Luxe Velvet Noir Nightfall lashes (£10) which are crafted from Luxury Faux Mink Matte black fibres for a deep and intense lash look. The second set of lashes are also from Eylure with their Most Wanted Infatuated lashes (£10) and they happen to be my favourite from this range. A sweet and wispy ¾ length lash that is designed to add depth and fullness to the outer corners of your eyes.
When it comes to nails Jessica nails has some really beautiful sets and the first set I am sharing is called Smoke & Mirrors. This set features a beautiful selection of classic grey nail polish shades and with them a nurturing base coat as well as a glossy top coat. The Smoke & Mirrors collection includes:
- 1 x Psycho Rhino 7.4ml (a dark grey )
- 1 x Monarch 7.4ml (a putty grey)
- 1 x Shadow 7.4ml (a light grey)
- 1 x Reward Base Coat to nourish nails
- 1 x Brilliance Top Coat 7.4ml for a glossy finish.
Priced at just £28, it is a really bargain for anyone who loves to paint to their nails. Their second, titled 'The Bestsellers' set features three products which are:
- Cherrywood - A cherry red nail polish with a créme finish.
- Tease - A nude créme finish polish
- Phenomen Oil - An intensely conditioning cuticle oil to promote nail and cuticle strength
This set costs just £19.50 which is an absolute bargain as the Phenomen Oil on its own is priced around £14.50!
Staying with nails and of course it has to be Elegant Touch! I have included two different sets which are perfect for party season. Starting with Love Always and Forever and they are a delicate French ombre nail with embellished accents, with their short stiletto style, they work with every outfit. The second option is from the Elegant Touch Luxe with Looks You Glow Girl and again, with their short Stiletto style, this time they offer glittery tips on top of a natural pink looking nail.
Both sets of nails come with their own glue and are priced from £7.99 and also be a ping-proof 10-day wear nail.
The final two products within this guide come from Kent Brushes and they happen to be one of the very first hairbrushes I bought was by Kent Brushes, it had a wooden body and handle and really smooth bristles. This time I have the Kent Brush Smoothing and Straightening which is perfect for having in your handbag to use on the move. It features a Beech wood handle with in-layed rubber grip for easy holding and an air-cushioned head to protect the scalp as it glides through knots and tangles.
The second product from Kent Brushes is an item everyone should have, that is a shampoo and scalp massaging brush. Perfectly designed to help with the even distributing shampoo and conditioner through your hair, it also has another important function and that is to stimulates the scalp and the hair shaft which in turn makes hair feel fuller.
So there you have a Secret Santa Gift Guide for 2022 which features products you can find on the high-street as well as online.
