The bd team is getting into the Christmas spirit with these limited-edition gift packs and products.
ghd air professional hairdryer with rose gold accents
My mother has very boofy hair. And I’m not talking about casual boof - it’s a ‘someone needs to keratin that lady’s hair before she knocks someone out with it’ kind of boof. Luckily, this ridiculously effective hair dryer has landed on my desk, and come Christmas Day the boof will turn to bounce (seriously, the Victoria’s Secret angels used it in this year’s show)! The limited-edition professional hair dryer features rose gold accents, making it even more special, and I am so excited to see my mum’s face on Christmas morning. Plus, here’s hoping I can use it to get those Victoria’s Secret waves happening weekly! - Maddie
Trilogy Rosapene Skincare Sensations
With a price slashed to nearly half the actual value of the individual products, the Trilogy Rosapene Skincare Sensations gift pack is not only great for skin, but great for Christmas finances too! It contains all the goodies you need for perfectly smooth, radiant skin over the festive season, with the award-winning Rosehip Oil Antioxidant+, Vital Moisturising Cream and Eye Contour Cream. The sizes are perfect for bringing on board if you’re jetting off on vacay. Plus, if you’ve been very, very good, Santa will probably also leave The Trilogy Botanical Beauties gift pack under your tree. This beauty includes the deliciously-scented Botanical Body Wash and a mini Certified Organic Rosehip Oil. - Janet
John Frieda Love of Big Hair Gift Pack
As an ex-hairdresser, my aunty is always keen to get her hands on the latest hair products, especially if they promise volume. So when I came across the John Frieda Love of Big Hair Luxurious Volume Gift Pack, I knew it was going straight under the tree with her name on it. The set includes travel sizes of the John Frieda Touchably Full Shampoo and Conditioner, John Frieda Luxurious Volume Root Booster Blow-Dry Lotion and John Frieda Luxurious Volume All-Day Hold Hairspray. At $15, the pack is a virtual bargain and the perfect stocking stuffer for that volume-seeking hair lover in your life. – Aja
Billie Goat Soap Bliss Pack
My boyfriend’s parents have quite sensitive skin that’s also quite dry and prone to eczema (what a lovely picture I’ve painted of my in-laws.. I promise I do like them!). With this in mind, the Billie Goat Soap Bliss Pack is the perfect present for them. The pack contains a soap, hand cream and lip balm, and all three products are travel-friendly, making them perfect to take on summer getaways. The pink and purple gift box features a flower print, and is cute enough to be re-used as a storage piece around the home. At $19.95, this set is an all-round winner. - Liz
Lip Smacker Disney Minnie Classroom Collection
As an aunty to four young nieces, when Christmas rolls around I keep my eyes peeled for anything pretty and pink. So when the Lip Smacker Disney Minnie Classroom Collection tin landed on my desk, I knew I could tick a present for my niece, Pria, off the list. It’s perfect because she gets two gorgeous lip balms that smell like bubblegum, a fabulously glitzy pink glitter lip gloss and a tin decorated with polka dots and Minnie Mouse. I know for sure Pria will be donning pink sparkles on Christmas Day and when it’s time to go back to school, she can put all her new stationary in the pretty tin – and I get to be the best aunty in the world twice! – Whitney
Designer Brands Frangipani Delight Bath & Shower Gel
My nan absolutely LOVES scented creams and gels, and with Christmas just around the corner, I can now spoil her with a scented crème gift set! Designer Brands makes buying presents super easy, thanks to their range of gift sets under $10. The Frangipani Delight pack is my pick. The cream will leave Nan’s skin hydrated and soft, while the gel will make sure she smells amazing! - Vanessa
Panache Gift Pack
Crazy Nanny has had a stressful year. First there was the car accident with old Unas, then she got hit by a bus. Yes, an actual bus. Add a six-week Europe trip, running the Padstow church and being a generally awesome grandma to the mix, and she’s had QUITE a busy 12 months for her 82 years. Christmas Day involves her twirling around the house to carols and fussing over everyone. This year, I’ll be pampering her with this beautiful gift pack in her favourite fragrance from Panache. The pack contains a perfumed talcum powder which she’ll adore patting on after her daily bath (what is it with oldies and talcum powder?), a body lotion to slather on her hard-working hands, and the fragrance to spritz on before her outings with Prime Time. I’m so excited to see her dance when she unwraps it come Christmas Day! - Kelly
Dr. Lewinn’s Reversaderm Advanced Skin Correction Starter Kit
Buying Christmas presents for my mum has never been a cakewalk. The strain of those years of juggling parenting with a full-time job is starting to show on her face (sorry Mum!), and she’s far too selfless to buy herself a skincare system, so it’s up to me to give her the best of the best. Enter the Dr. Lewinn’s Reversaderm Advanced Skin Correction Starter Kit. The salon-quality pack contains a clarifying cleanser, collagen accelerating serum, a regenerative cream, an age-correcting peel and a detoxifying mask. That’s a few hours of spa treatments in one box that promise to wind back the years and allow her to go about her business as a power woman looking fresh and ferocious. She is going to love me (even more) for this. - Jocelyn
