Greetings Readers!
Today I am going to be sharing one of 3 gift guides. This is my first gift guide that I will be showing you and it involves the more luxury side of gifts that you can give to the special people in your life. I will also be doing a £10-£25 gift guide as well as an under £10 stocking filler gift guide.
So, hopefully there will be something for all of you beautiful people to enjoy.
A lot of the products are themed around pampering yourself, relaxing, taking care of your skin and just looking good. Because lets face it you’re going to have some time off over Christmas so why not make the most of it and pamper yourself or get things for a family member or friend to pamper them.
So, lets not waste anymore time because Christmas is coming fast! Without further adieu…

Little Darling-a light nude pink.

Lush offer some fantastic Christmas gifts which are always beautifully wrapped and presented in lovingly, Christmassy designed boxes and wrapping paper. Now, this year it was really hard to pick a favourite, as I love many of them. But, my top pick which is of a fairly reasonable price is the Christmas Bath Time Favourites gift set. This set is packaged in a beautiful blue box featuring a festive design with holly and a Robin redbreast finished with a festive red bow. Inside the set you get a Cinders Bath Bomb, Frozen Bath Bomb, Butterbear Bath Bomb, Luxury Lush Pud Bath Bomb, Golden Wonder Bath Bomb, Father Christmas Bath Bomb, Experimenter Bath Bomb, Yog Nog Bath Bomb and Think Pink Bath Bomb.
