This has been one of my most requested posts the last few weeks so I tried to put together a selection of ideas to suit all budgets but of course that would incorporate a wide variety of beauty and makeup choices. If you have a serious makeup junkie in your life they will more than likely know their stuff when it comes to what’s the most lust after items of this season. For today I’ve put a selection of some of my favourite statement beauty gifts, from makeup palettes, to gift sets, the perfume obsessed to the bargain fans and a specific section for those with sensitive skin who might be tricker to buy for. All of the below I have tried and tested over the last year on fashion shoots, seen first hand at press events or used personally.
