What I Got For Christmas 2012!


Hey There! I hope you all had yourselves a very merry Christmas. I just wanted to share a few beauty related gifts I received over the festive season. I have already tried out all of the products (because I’m way too impatient & couldn’t resist) and so far I am more than happy with all of them. In saying that, before I do broadcast a review on any of these products I will definitely need to get more use out of them to get a thorough and accurate opinion. Without further ado; here are the gifts along with a quick blurb that came with the products:

The Benefit ‘Perk Up And Away!’ Gift Set:
Posietint (Full Size 12.5mL) – A poppy-pink tinted lip & cheek stain
Dandelion (Full Size 7.0g) – A brightening face powder
Watt’s Up! (Full Size 9.4g) – A soft focus face highlighter
The Porefessional (Tester  7.5mL) – Pro balm to minimise the appearance of pores

MAC Lip Pencil in ‘REDD’

Bobbi Brown Corrector in ‘Light to Medium Bisque’

Garnier BB Cream Miracle Skin Perfector for Combination to Oily Skin in ‘Medium’ (40mL)

Taylor Swift ‘Enchanted Wonderstruck’ (100mL) – Containing notes of wild berries, pink poppies and passion fruit as well as white musk, vanilla and blonde woods.

Chanel ‘No. 5’ (100mL) – Containing notes of aldehydes, ylang-ylang, jasmine, bergamot and musk, although this perfume is incredibly hard to pinpoint an exact description as it is just a classic

Marc Jacobs ‘Daisy Eau So Fresh’ (Travel Size 20mL + 15mL Refill) – Containing notes of grapefruit, berry, pear, litchi and green notes

I was so overwhelmed with all of these gifts and I can tell you they made me one very happy girl! I was probably most excited about receiving the Chanel No. 5 perfume as it is just gorgeous and I was very upset when my last bottle ran out, as well as the Garnier BB Cream, the Bobbi Brown Corrector and the Benefit Watt’s Up!

Please comment down below and tell me what your favourite Christmas gifts this year, I would love to hear from you!

  2. How do you like the Bobbi Brown corrector so far? I picked up the concealer today and I may add the corrector to my collection sometime in the future. Your blog is beautiful! :)

    1. Firstly, thank you very much for stopping by :) I am really loving the corrector, the salmon undertones really do cancel out my dark circles :) I just apply it with my finger then blend out with a synthetic dome blending brush! I highly recommend it!

      P.S. I'm so glad I've come across your blog, you've definitely gained a new follower :D xo

    1. To be completely honest I've only used it a couple of times, so I may not be the best person to ask. But, the few times I have used it, it has been very luxiorous and smooth! It has a lovely texture and a suttle but refreshing/clean scent :) I've also been wanting to by full size!
      I'll be sure to do a full review in the coming month!
      HAPPY NEW YEAR!
