1. MAC Cosmetics - She's Got it All Apply, Line & Define Brush Collection
This brush set is PERF for the lady who loves to dress up her eyes and try different eye looks, but doesn't have the proper tools. I cannot stress enough how essential it is to utilize the correct brushes when applying eye makeup. In addition to the fabulous brushes, the collection comes with a fabulous tartan plaid bag to carry them in which fits into any purse. This kit retails at $49.50 and can be purchased at all MAC locations (stores and counters) and online - http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/2221/12890/Shes-Got-it-All-Apply-Define-Line-Brush-Collection/index.tmpl
2. Clarisonic Skincare Brush
Estheticians utilize this brush when performing facials on virtually every skin type. It removes makeup six times better than traditional methods, Clears pores and reduces the appearance of pore size, Cleanses so thoroughly that skincare products absorb better, and Creates noticeably healthier looking skin. If your skin is problematic in any way I guarantee that using this product will drastically improve its appearance. It retails for $195, however it prevents you from ever needing a facial again making it well worth the price!! I suggest making the brush a part of your everyday skincare regimen, however using it once daily (at night) is extremely effective as well. The Clarisonic Skincare Brush can be purchased at Nordstrom, Sephora, or online - http://www.clarisonic.com/
3. Lancome Cils Booster XL Super Enhancing Mascara Base
One main trend among my clients is that many of them don't own or use a mascara primer or base, but can't seem to understand why their mascara isn't providing the affect they desire. HELLO LADIES.........you need a base! While mascaras are designed to either create volume, length, curl or a combination of the three, depending upon the consistency of the product and the shape of the wand, they can be difficult to apply smoothly. However all mascaras work effortlessly with a base or primer and this particular one by far is my favorite. Lancome’s Mascara Base separates and defines lashes, creating exceptional length and volume. This product retails at $22.00 and can be purchased at Nordstrom, Sephora and all other retail locations where Lancome products are sold.
4. Deborah Lippmann 'Layer Cake' Nail Color Trio
While working at the MAC counter in Nordstrom, I stumbled across the most FABULOUS nail color trio that I absolutely die for. The Nordstrom website describes it as: An uber-chic polish trio featuring Wicked Game (swirling lavender grey), Happy Birthday (party in a bottle) and Dark Side of the Moon (absolutely aubergine). I like to paint the nails on one hand with Wicked Game and the opposite hand with Dark Side of the Moon, then top both hands off with Happy Birthday (it really is a party in a bottle). For the less flashy lady alternate manicures with Wicked Game and Dark Side of the Moon. Also, not only are the colors Fab but they are in trend for the season so you can't loose. This trio retails at $25.00 and can be purchased at Nordstrom locations or online - http://shop.nordstrom.com/
5. Amazing Grace
These chilly wintry months cause our skin to become dry and tight. Philosphy's Amazing Grace perfumed hot salt, tub and shower scrub works fabulously to soften and smooth the skin. In addition to the supple skin that is left after using the scrub, a feminine and clean smell remains that lingers throughout the day. This scrub retails are $25.00 for 23 oz and is available wherever Philosophy products are sold, or online - http://www.philosophy.com/
I hope that my list of items inspired you and provided ideas for your own personal lists (LOL) or gifts to buy for your loved ones. Other gift ideas include mani/pedi giftcards, MAC's 5 Sassy Neutral Lassies Lipglass set, and a subscription to Vogue or InStyle magazines.
Also Ladies, take a moment to think about those less fortunate and lend a helping hand this holiday season :) Happy Holidays
