The BD team reveal what they would love to find in their Santa sacks come Christmas morning.
CLINIQUE Moisture That Matters
A CLINIQUE item is one of those gifts that lights up the eyes of anyone receiving it - whatever age or sex. In fact, the only CLINIQUE products safe from my boyfriend’s prying eyes are my foundation and chubby sticks. I’m hoping the Moisture That Matters’ pretty bright pink and orange packaging is enough to put my BF off from going digging, because I know he’ll be just as keen to use what’s inside as I am. The cosmetic bag contains the Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief, Moisture Surge Overnight Mask and All About Eyes cream - hydrating products that pack a punch. The perfect Christmas gift for me … and maybe I’ll decide to share… - Yelena
M.A.C Enchanted Eve Red Lip Bag
If there’s one thing I love more than Christmas it’s got to be a bold, red lip. Which is why the M.A.C Enchanted Eve Red Lip Bag is my festive dream come true. The pack contains a gorgeous rouge lippy with a matching lip pencil and a high-shine gloss, all housed in a trendy (and practical) little make-up bag. Anyone can pull off a Tay-Tay-worthy red lip when given the right tools, making this kit the perfect pressie. - Anna
Billie Goat Soap 1-2-3 Essentials Pack
The Christmas present conundrum is all too familiar, particularly when said gift receiver is of the sensitive skin variety. Thankfully, Billie Goat Soap is a brand based around the beauty benefits of goat’s milk, with the products free from the nasties of paragons, synthetic fragrances and colour - making them ideal for those who suffer from sensitivity. Billie Goat Soap 1-2-3 Essentials Pack is a prettily housed package of the brand’s skincare basics - a cream cleanser, a day cream and a nourishing night cream. - Sarah
Designer Brands Snowflake
What says Merry Christmas more than an ultra-pigmented, versatile eyeshadow palette? From a smokey eye for NYE to a beautifully bronzed lid for festive family lunch, Designer Brands has got you colourfully covered. This all-in-one Snowflake Palette is a mix of matte and shimmery finishes, with easy-to-blend creamy hues to suit every summer occasion. Free from parabens and talc, as well as certified vegan and cruelty-free, this palette is sure to bring a defined pop of colour with bright tones for daywear to darker, more striking shades at night. - Ally
ulta3 Gimme 5!
With Christmas right around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about gift ideas for family and friends - so I was excited for this week’s trial to give me some great ideas. I think I hit gold with the ulta3 Gimme 5! pack, which is a nail polish gift pack with five different shades. I trialled the pastels, which suited me perfectly as I am more of a girly girl and love the soft colours. However, there is also another pack with five different brighter and darker shades so you can tailor this gift to suit any girl. A big plus is that you can pick this one up for under $10! - Laura
Aromatherapy Associates Nourishing Enrich
I would sing Joy to the World on repeat if I woke up on Christmas morning with a stocking full of gift vouchers to exclusive and luxurious spas. Unfortunately, I think that fantasy will remain a fantasy ... Fortunately though, with Aromatherapy Associates’ Nourishing Enrich Christmas gift pack, I am able to have an indulgent spa-like treatment at home! Starting with the Natural Exfoliating Scrub, my skin is left invigorated and well-prepped for the Nourishing Enrich Body Butter, which is a long-lasting moisturiser. But my absolute favourite item in this gift pack is the Nourishing Enrich Massage and Body Oil - this product is 100 per cent plant-based and has the scents of primrose, macadamia nut and coconut. Joy to the world, indeed! - Sophia
Nude by Nature Complexion Supernature
When you don’t know what to get a man, the easy option is a bottle of his favourite alcohol (or in my Grandpa’s case, some good ol’ home brew). When you don’t know what to get a woman? Make-up. The answer is ALWAYS make-up. The Nude by Nature Complexion Supernature gift pack is the perfect option for a few reasons: a) The products are all mineral which means they suit all skin types and are suitable to use with many skin conditions. b) It’s a phenomenal eight-piece pack that contains all the necessities for a flawless finish. c) The pack is housed in a gorgeous rose gold tin. Basically, it’s an awesome gift idea that is sure to evoke a squeal of excitement come Christmas morning. Very well done Nude! - Kelly
