My last Christmas gift guide this year (see my fashion one here and jewellery one here) for those of you who like to live a little dangerously and leave your shopping until the last minute (I've still got a few to buy myself...)

I don't really touch on beauty much on this blog - I love makeup and skincare but tend to just stick to the same products and routine and keep my makeup pretty simple. Having said that, I love receiving a luxury beauty product as a gift; to me, there's something really decadent about a designer lipstick that is really good quality, will last, and looks pretty on your dressing table.
