The Body Shop Chocomania Cupcake Set - £5.00 I love The Body Shop at this time of year, they never fail to come out with lovely, affordable gifts that would suit just about anyone. This one is my favourite out of them all - it contains a 60ml shower cream, a 25g soap and two bath lilies all packed up in a adorable box. They have different scents available, including Honeymania if chocolate is not to your recipient's taste!

Aromatherapy Associates Little Bell - £10.00 These have arrived at work recently, and I can't get over how powerful the scent is! As soon as they were unpackaged from their plastic I could smell them right away - without even opening the blue box, never mind the bottle itself! It smells absolutely incredible. This 7.5ml bottle will give you three bath or shower experiences, making them perfect for an indulgent treat.

Travalo Perfume Atomiser - £7.95 Since buying one of these for myself last year I am never without it. Intended for travel purposes, these are just as suitable for chucking in your bag to refresh your fragrance on the go. Martin's got one too and he loves it just as much as I do! Different colours are available, and if you don't mind the lack of branding/packaging you can pick one up from eBay for just £1.99 here.

Yankee Candle Small Jar - £6.29 One of these just had to make it in here! This is representative of any small jar, but this particular one is an absolute bargain and of course, completely season appropriate. It's sweet and sugary and really reminds me of baking in the kitchen. These have an average burn time of up to 40 hours, which is pretty fantastic for a candle this cheap and of good quality!

MUA Eyeshadow Palette - £4.00 Again, this is representative as there are many MUA palettes available, but this one has to be their bestselling palette by far. Hailed as a dupe for Urban Decay's Naked Palette, it offers twelve shades of high quality eyeshadow in a selection of neutral shades. I think any girl from beauty amateur to obsessive would appreciate this - if they don't own it already, that is!


Soap & Glory 'Eyes Cool' Gel Eye Mask - £6.00 Tired, puffy eyes are something not many of us escape from, and every once in a while it's nice to just sit back and relax. This eye mask will certainly help with doing that, it soothes and cools the eye area and is in a pretty cute design to boot. Soap & Glory's items are always of high quality so if used appropriately, this will last forever. I might ask for one of these myself!

Lush Santa's Lip Scrub - £5.50 I've actually got this myself, and it's the first and only lip scrub I've ever owned. It's become a revelation for me, because not only does it smooth my lips and let lip products apply better, it tastes like cola cubes too! Licking it off your lips is quite a novelty, even if it is quite messy. Anyone who suffers from dry, chapped lips during the winter will thank you for this!

Bourjois Magic Nail Polish Remover - £4.99 Unless you've been living under a rock, you will have heard about this. Any lover of nail polish will know that the most annoying, time-consuming, boring part of any manicure is removing it and this makes light work of that task. This is also great for fixing that one nail you managed to mess up, without having to faff about with cotton wool.

Barry M Nail Paints - £3.99 each Representative again, the whole range is fantastic and I really can't fault these nail polishes at all. Available in every colour you can think of, with a great formula for a great price, they're the most popular high street nail polish for a reason! The matte collection is particularly lovely and these are always on some sort of offer or another, so you can pick up a few shades for less than £10.

Tangle Teezer Detangling Hairbrush - £9.50 Unless your recipient has very short hair, one of these would go down well as a Christmas gift. Brushing hair when wet or dry is made so much easier with one of these - they do have a special one just made for water, but it's still selling at over £10 and I think the originals are just as good. You can find cheaper, unbranded versions on eBay here.
