Christmas Special: Great Beauty Gifts for Her

Here at The Amazing Blog we know how time consuming or difficult it can be buying last minute presents, from the tricky family member or even a friend who seems to have everything. Don’t worry we have got the present ideas sorted! Today we’ve got the first instalment of our Christmas present list for her; with Thursday post focusing on fashion and accessories, today is all about beauty.

Firstly, from Accessorize we have a simple gift set, perfect for younger girls, comprised of 4 items: hand cream, lip balm, nail buffer block and tin. The travel-sized products are from Citrus Twist, a bold Aztec patterned and sweetly scented range. The hand cream comes in a 30ml size and the lip balm comes in 20g size, both perfect to carry around in a handbag. The nail buffer features 4 sides each with their own use; a file, a smoother, a buffer and polish to shape nails pre-painting. The tin is also great to be reused for storing items like nails varnishes or makeup. 

Overall these handbag essentials are a great little treat for a younger family member for only £10 available here.

For something more sophisticated try Orla Kiely’s mini fragrance gift set. Fig Tree, Earl Grey and Geranium are the scents within, a mix of strong scents great to mix up the everyday perfume. The miniature 5 ml bottles can easily fit into the smallest of bags for a midday or midnight touch up. Our office favourite is the fig tree scent, fresher and lighter than the other two scents but still a sharp scent. The perfumes come in an orange sliding box which can be re-used by simply taking the label off.

This trio of perfumes makes a perfect gift for any female adult and can be purchased here for £ 12.

For the woman who doesn’t seem to stop, whether it be working, looking after children, cleaning or going to events, the bathing flowers from Heathcote & Ivory’s Atlas Silk collection is a great idea. The pretty packaging is colourful yet polished showcasing the cute flowers inside. Formed of roses of all different sizes and colours, the hexagonal box looks pretty even before you put them in the water. All you need to do is place them in warm running water where they float on top before dissolving to form a creamy sweet smelling bath, perfect after a long day or you can even leave them on the counter top looking pretty.

You can purchase the box here for £10.

 

Using only the finest, 100% natural ingredientsThe Balm Boutique have got the gift set suitable for everyone covered. The Berry Bliss Body Spa gift set consists of Berry Body Polish, Berry Butter Bar and Strawberry lip tint; and all three products have the distinctive berry scent. The Berry body polish is a thick brown liquid, with exfoliating properties from Strawberry, Raspberry and Vanilla seeds. The Berry Butter bar looks and smells good enough to eat. It melts when massaged into the skin, with moisturising properties from Cocoa butter, Shea butter and Coconut oil. Lastly, the Strawberry Lip Tint only uses natural tinting properties donated from the Beetroot and Alkanet Root to colour the lips.

You can purchase this sensationally sweet and deliciously silky gift set here for £28.

Lychee Sorbet Collection by Heathcote & Ivory for Accessorize

After a harsh, cold bout of weather, our hands and lips are still feeling a bit worse for wear as spring arrives. Here at The Amazing Blog, we know it’s important to protect them, so we’re excited to treat them to Lychee Sorbet – Travel Hand Creams and Lip Balm by Heathcote & Ivory for Accessorize.

Formulated with Shea Butter, Beeswax, Vitamin E, Cocoa Butter and Coconut Oil, the Lychee Sorbet Travel Hand Cream has a pleasant, rich, and smooth texture that doesn’t leave a greasy film on the skin. Our hands feel moisturised and deeply nourished with a sensation of freshness and suppleness to our skin all day long. We especially love the fruity fragrance of Blossom, Lily, Amber and Sweet Orange, which reminds us that after winter comes springtime. Another bonus is the lovely packaging accessorised with a clip to personalise bags, belts, wallets or pencil cases; the handy size is just so convenient! The Lip Balm is also great for protecting our lips. Rich in protective Beeswax, hydrating Coconut oil, and cooling Menthol, it leaves a shiny gloss finish and an impressive sensation of freshness a long time after its application. The rich texture also gives us fuller lips.

Grab the Lychee Sorbet Travel Hand Creams here for £8 and the Lychee Sorbet Lip Balm here for £5.

 

Stylish Sami Bracelets

I am a person who absolutely loves to accessorize. Yet I find it incredibly difficult to discover a special product that looks unique yet fabulous all in one. I believe I have found one of those uniquely brilliant products with Comfy Clogs line of Swedish Samibracelets. The Swedish Lapland leather bracelets are gorgeous and unique mixed with all sorts of creative energy. The collection of bracelets features traditional braiding used in original Sami culture as well as modern and hip new styles with beads and pearls. There is a style for every personality, and even every gender! The products are great for women as well as men.

The bracelets are made using Sami embroidery with pewter wire on reindeer leather or top grade lambskin. This traditional Sami culture craft is coveted throughout the world and normally sold at insane prices. All of the work is so intricate and well made it is hard to imagine sitting down and making! No wonder the beautiful bracelets are so coveted.

The company also has a wide range of clogs (hence the name Comfy Clogs) that use the same quality of craftsmanship and style of the bracelets. You can order the browse and order products on their website. For additional information you can call Cecilia on 0781 575 0340 or 020 8780 9767.
