This Christmas, I was truly spoilt rotten with gifts from my amazing friends and family and of course that meant lots of beauty and makeup products to be squealed over. So without further adieu I give you my Christmas beauty pressies and my first ever haul.
Now this little beauty was a complete surprise, a box full of gorgeous products from & Other Stories. Whenever I enter this amazing store, I go a little bit giddy. To say I have a crush on this place full of beautiful treasures is an understatement. Their stands are something only Pinterest boards are made of and I only dreamt of adorning my bathroom with their beautiful, simplistically packaged products which smell exactly as it says on the tin. Luckily enough for me, a special someone treated me to some products from the amazing Cotton Care Range, a body scrub, soap bar, body lotion, shower cream, all purpose balm and a soft flannel - I am in heaven.
If you read my What's the story Soap and Glory post then you will know how much of a fan I am of all of the Soap & Glory bath products. One of my favourites ranges is Sugar Crush. WIth it's fresh zingy lime scent it is perfect to start the day and I was lucky to unwrap a special Sugar Crush box set on Christmas morning filled with body wash, body butter, body scrub and a loofah sponge - Perfection!
My final beauty treat this Christmas was a trip down memory lane, a complete Best of Benefit kit with 5 of their best sellers, the Boi-ing concealer, They're Real mascara, High Beam, Bene Tint, Hoola bronzer and their Porefessional. I have used all of these products and they really are the best of the bunch and have been my fave Benefit products for years. Due to the beauty magpie in me I am constantly trying and testing new products and I seem to forget about the ol' favourites so this was the perfect present for me and I have most definitely rekindled that Bene-spark - they haven't left my face since I got them.
