Christmas Gifting: Ghost Fragrance Bauble

Ghost, bauble, fragrance,

Christmas is around the corner! Hopefully you aren't in panic buying mode, but if you are perhaps this post could be a helpful steer. This week's offering is a fragrance encased in a bauble! I've seen these advertised in a few Christmas gift magazines from the likes of Boots, Superdrug and Feel Unique. Firstly they look adorable! The bauble itself could be reused and up-cycled with glitter, figurines, feathers or anything else for a tree decoration next year.

Secondly, this is the perfect stocking filler or small present to accompany another gift you already have for someone. I've never tried any fragrances from Ghost, so these seem like a perfect way to do so. The bottle is more than your average teeny sample size, but smaller than the smallest bottle available at fragrance counters. They have a few scents in this format for Christmas, but they have been selling out quickly every time they're restocked online, so keep a sharp eye on the lookout for them in stores and online! I will not list the price here just in case the recipient of the ones I've bought read the blog!

I know, ANOTHER palette! I bought this at the beginning of November on the Sephora website, they have a fantastic range of products usually only available in the US. They are based in the US, but it can be worthwhile shopping with them for cheaper prices, fairly reasonable international shipping and NO extra import fees, hurrah!

This is Tarte's Christmas offering. A huge bundle including 24 eyeshadows, a 'Lights, camera action' mascara (RRP. $21), a dual ended eyeshadow brush AND an additional travel friendly palette which includes 6 more eyeshadows, a bronzer and an 'Amazonian Clay 12 hour blush' (RRP. $28). All of this is available for $59 or £39 for a fantastic range of make-up. The brand prides itself on being eco-friendly and cruelty-free. All of their products have been formulated without parabens, mineral oil, phlthalates, triclosan, sodium lauryl sulphate and gluten, basically no nasty ingredients!

The collection is presented in a beautifully sequined box. I really love the range of matte, satin and shimmer eyeshadows in this palette. The eyshadows have seasonal names, my favourites include "Yule Be Surprised", "Peach on Earth" and "Under the Mistle-Taupe". This would be a great gift for any make-up lover, or anyone starting out with make-up as the set includes such a great range of products. For anyone not wanting to pruchase form a US site, Tarte cosmetics are also available on QVC's website.
