GIFTS FOR TEENS


CHRISTMAS GIFT GUIDE

Gifts For The Teen Girl!

Revo Twist Lip Balm
These mini stocking fillers are sure to please! With four delicious flavours to choose from or collect,
everyone is going to be wanting one of these in their stockings ready for school next year!

These balms are super hydrating with natural oils and ingredients like Vitamin E, Aloe and
antioxidants. They are not just a pretty face!

Other flavours you can try include -
Watermelon
Cherry
Coconut

Available to purchase from Chemcorp online for current RRP $4.99 each.

Real Techniques Miracle Makeup Sponge Gift Set
Call me old but when I was a teen, I barely every wore makeup! Ok, so I did experiment with
mascara, lip gloss, blue eye shadow and glitter. But that's about as far as it went and never did I
ever pack it on like you see teenagers do as the complete norm these days. Don't get me wrong I
really don't have a problem with this evolution. I love makeup and have always seen it as a fun way
of expressing one's creativity. I just wonder how it's gonna go down when my 5yr old suddenly turns
13 and is sporting sexy red lipstick, heavy foundation she doesn't need and fake lashes.... We will see!

ANYWAY, these sponges are a great starting point and a good staple to gift your teen buddies, as
they're a fantastic stash to have on hand for the makeup beginner as you can easily perfect and master
all kinds of tips and tricks to get your makeup on point and looking neat and fresh! Find out more in
my full review here!

Available to purchase from Priceline for current RRP $49.99

Eco Tools Boho Luxe Duo Brush Set
Like sponges, makeup brushes are also very handy for makeup beginners to have because we pretty
much all own a set or two and if your beauty loving friend, sister, daughter, niece, etc doesn't own her
own set yet, then these are a great first set to get!

As you can see there is a handy little pouch to store them in. You get three duel ended brushes so you
have all you need for your everyday kit! EcoTools are a fantastic brand I truly recommend. You can


Oribe Dry Texturising Spray & Oribe Wave and Shine Spray
Give them a head start for the new school year with these cute minis from Oribe. It will have any
teen's unruly hair under control in just a few minutes, which is all most of them can manage that
early!

These are perfect 'throw in your bag' size for touch ups throughout the day. They also smell great and
are a pro at taming those pesky fly away in this Summer heat!

The Dry Texturising Spray will absorb all of that teenage excess hair oil and add dimension to flat
lifeless hair. The Wave and Shine spray pretty much speaks for itself, smoothing waves into silky
curves.

Shop the Oribe haircare range online here!

Body Fantasies Signature Japanese Cherry Blossom Body Spray
Perfumes seem to always be a popular gift at Christmas time however can be quite costly and at times
inappropriate for some young teens. Body sprays are a much more budget friendly and age
appropriate option.  ($7.99 each!)

These Body Fantasies come in a range of scents and make for the perfect size
stocking stuffers or to add to beauty gift baskets!

Other scents in the range include -
Vanilla
Twilight Mist
Kissing In The Rain
Sweet Pea
Pink Vanilla Kiss Fantasy

Available to purchase from Chemcorp online for current RRP $7.99 each.

VS Sassoon Evoke Hair Dryer or Straightener
Do you know a teen growing up in the blink of an eye and needs their own set of hair tools so they
stop borrowing yours? This pink set is super girlie and cute! Not only that VS Sassoon make very
good quality dryers and straighteners which last for years and always come with a decent warranty.

To find out more be sure to check out my full review on this hair care set here!

This is my own personal set I use pretty much daily and hasn't failed me yet! The storage pouch it
comes with is also very handy to store the straightener in for traveling and just general storage.

PRICELINE MAKEUP BAG


~  PRICELINE MAKE-UP BAG  ~

Gift With - (Out?) Purchase!

Join in on the discussion over on Youtube! :)

So, here is the story... basically I explain it all in my un-bagging video above however I will also give you a bit of a run down here.  So you are probably wondering 
why I have titled this as a 'Gift With - (Out?) Purchase!' ?? Well let me explain. It is all
innocent I swear! 

So nearing toward the end or it may have actually been the very last day of this promotion
in store. My husband, kids and I were out on the weekend getting some groceries and a
few other odds and ends around our local little shopping centre, and as you do when you
just want to get home late on a Sunday arvo with the kids beginning to get tired and
 cranky we decided to split up. My son (2yrs) and I went to Coles and the hubby and my  
daughter (4yrs) went to Priceline for totally unrelated fun makeup things!

So basically my husband saw the gift bag sitting on the shelf, had a look at it and decided
on impulse to surprise me with it. Then had second thoughts and wanted me to be able to
come in and pick out the products I wanted just in case he picked some things I already
had or didn't like. So after speaking to the lady in the store, she explained it was their last
bag and that he could just take it as they were about to close and were apparently just 
trying to get rid of it! 0_o

Yippeeeee! Thank you lady from Priceline! You just made one very tired and worn out 
mummy very, very happy!! :)


Each year the gift bags that Priceline offer differ slightly. You can check out last year's makeup gift
with purchase bag here. This years bag is about the same size as last years and like last years bag, it
is a lovely girlie pink colour with roses and a gold zip. I really like it, however last years still remains
my favourite thus far.

ECOTOOLS


~  ECO TOOLS  ~

Fresh & Flawless

5 Piece Complexion Set!


I have been needing to invest in a good set of make-up brushes for a long time. I did purchase
a mini travel set of 3 Real Techniques brushes a little while ago, and although they are amazing
and I love and use them almost daily, they are mini and I wanted ones with a longer handle!

I'd always heard good things about Eco Tools, particularly their make-up brushes so naturally
I had to find out how amazing these were for myself! ;)

I hopped onto iHerb to see what was available and that is when this colourful set caught my
eye and I knew I just had to have them, they are perfect!


These brushes are made from bamboo in the handles and they are completely cruelty free which I
100% back and admire! The bristles are so soft and smooth and already I have noticed a difference
in the appearance of my make-up when applied using these. They are super easy to use and have
made my life much easier of late. Now I have a brush for everything and I love that because it's
helping me to improve my make-up applying techniques!

The fibres do not leave any steaks along your skin and they're so firmly embedded in the brush
that I haven't seen a single hair fall out onto my face or even look like coming loose. They are
locked in there tight! Brilliant!

Left to right - Full Powder Brush, Complexion Blending Brush, Precision Foundation Brush,
Buffing Concealer Brush & Flat Concealer Brush.

I do love to have my brushes out where I can quickly and easily reach for and use them each day,
however I love how they came stored so neatly like this. Good to keep for travelling or
to store to prolong their longevity perhaps?


What make-up brushes do you swear by?
