With that in mind, given that they also happen to make the perfect stocking filler/ present ideas for any beauty lover out there, I couldn’t help but do a round up of my festive favourites…
Should you wish to treat yourself and/or someone special over the holidays, that is!
Without further ado therefore…
As you might well know, Beauty Pie’s Bergamot and Wild Basil candle is my go-to throughout the year. That being said, for the next few weeks, this utterly festive fragrance that smells like freshly chopped fir trees is being lit in pretty much every room around the house! We’ve had so many compliments on this candle when guests have come over in recent weeks and like every product from Beauty Pie, it smells like it should cost so much more than it does!

A scent for the season, this perfume warmed my soul and smelt instantly inviting as soon as I sprayed it. With top notes of Lemon Oil, Bergamot and Sweet Tobacco; middle notes of Jasmine, Cinnamon Oil and Clove; and base notes of Cedarwood, Musk and Vanilla, its a truly enchanting, festive fragrance – the perfect pressie to open on Christmas Day!

If you or the lucky lady in your life is looking for a perfume that works year-round, I can’t get enough of the limited edition, Figuier De Dalmatie perfume. With top notes of Bergamot Oil, Blood Orange Oil and Mandarin Oil; middle notes of Gardenia and Frangipani Flower and base notes of Fig Wood, Vanilla and Heliotrope; it somehow manages to smell light and decadent all at once. A truly sensational floral number, it smells like it should cost triple the price.

If you’re a regular reader on here, you’ll know how much my morning shower routine sets me up for the day. With that in mind, I always try to hunt down products that feel that bit more indulgent at Christmas, so that my morning routine across the holidays feels extra special! With nourishing shea butter, cacao butter and sweet almond oil, this body creme ticks all of the boxes. It feels luxuriously buttery and leaves my skin feeling utterly pampered. The perfect way to start Christmas Day if you ask me!

I’ve tried so many products that promise ‘dewy skin’ and an ‘instant glow’ in my 34 years and this is one of only ones that delivers on cue, without fail! With that in mind, though it doesn’t tick the ‘festive’ or ‘limited edition’ box, it does tick the ‘game-changing everyday beauty staple’ box and for that reason, 100% had to make this list. For me, it’s the PERFECT stocking filler for any beauty lover out there… Hint Hint Ali, I know…!

Like I was going to leave this game changer out too! The festive season tends to come hand-in-hand with a lot of late nights, right? With that in mind, this eye brightener provides an instant morning pick-me-up and helps to disguise dark, under eye circles from one too many glasses of red! Another amazing stocking filler, it’s become a staple in my post- late night routine.
