Xmas gift guide for your Beauty Junkie

When I wrote my Christmas gift blog last year I could not have foreseen the year that lay ahead. We’ve definitely had it all in 2020! The last few months for me have been hectic to say the least, so the monthly blog has taken a bit of a backseat. However, I couldn’t let Christmas go by without giving you all the inside scoop on my top picks from this years Mecca Xmas. I’ve broken it down into Affordable Treats and a Little bit of Luxe, hopefully you find something for your beauty bestie…. who am I kidding, I’ll be getting these for me!

Affordable Treats

Off duty blush Sticks
$18 each or Xmas Pack of 3 $42
These new creamy face sticks are so good! There are 5 different shades ranging from soft pink to deep plum to juicy orange. They also have a contour or bronzing stick in 2 different shades and a glow stick for that soft and dewy highlight. Made for cheeks and face but beautiful on your eyes or for a soft finish lip, at $18 each they are an absolute steal. Mecca have also released them in a Xmas gift pack, 1 x contour, 1 x glow and 1 x blush for $42.

Mecca Max Party Tricks Whole face palette $56
The Party Tricks full face palette is an absolute winner for the beauty junkie in your life. 21 eyeshadows, a blush, a bronzer and a highlighter, an eyeliner and a lipgloss. From everything to easy beach day to glam night out this clever little palette has you covered.

Lipglosses $18 Gloss Posse Mini Lipglaze trio
I’m not a huge fan of lipgloss but I constantly hear how good the Mecca Max Gloss Boss is so when I saw their Xmas pack for this winner price point I thought I’d give it a go. Like everything with Mecca Max, I wasn’t disappointed. 3 glosses in clear, a summery orange and a “goes with everything” nude. They go on easily, last extremely well and don’t leave that sticky gross feeling that glosses sometimes do. What a great stocking filler!

To Save Face Sunscreen
A must have for anyone living in Oz this Christmas. I’m a huge fan of the Mecca Cosmetica sunscreen because of its texture, smell and how beautifully it wears under makeup. So, for Chrissy this year they have given you a few options. The To Save Face Christmas Cracker at $22 is a terrific Secret Santa. The great Protectors pack has a small To Save Face paired with a large To Save Body for $60 OR the Sun Essentials Pack which has you fully covered this summer season with a To Save Face, To Save Body, a To Save Face Lip balm sunscreen and the Mecca Cosmetica After sun spray all in a neoprene bag.

A little bit of luxe

Nars Packs

Every year I lust after the Christmas offerings from Nars and this year is no different. With the launch of their new Laguna Bronzers they’ve brought out some great packs for the beauty afficionado in your life. The Laguna Lip and Bronzer duos are sweet treat at just $38 or the Afterglow palette and orgasm lip gold pouch set will definitely win you some points.

The littlies head to toe

Floral Street
Collections of 4 $156
When I ask for Perfume I ask for Floral Street. The dreamy floral inspired scents are perfect for someone who doesn’t like to be mainstream. Delicate Peony or Poppy, sweet orchids and vanilla or bold rose fragrances are just some of the delectable scents you can choose from and with the collections option you don’t have to narrow it down to just one.

Sunday Riley
The Power couple $115 or mini $44
I raved about this in one of my 3 product blogs earlier in the year. The Sunday Riley Good Genes Lactic Acid treatment is an absolute joy and packaged together with their famous Luna Oil it makes a wonderful Christmas present or stocking stuffer with the mini option.

Too Faced Palette
Pumpkin spice $78
It wouldn’t be the holidays without a festive palette from Too Faced. Pumpkin spice brings you a wonderful selection of creamy mattes and glittery shine options all with their signature yummy scent. This sultry warm eyeshadow selection can take you from a soft summer daytime look to an ultra glam hot summer night in the blink of an eye. They don’t usually hang around after Xmas so check them out before its too late.

So many options to choose from this year, I hope there’s something here to spoil you or your loved ones this Christmas. As always if you have any questions I’m happy to help, just get in touch HERE.
