Beauty Advent Calendar
DO IT YOURSELF!
Christmas is coming! With the race to get
everyone ticked off the gift list already on, here’s
some last minute inspo to make the task a little
lighter this year. A great and innovative idea is to
create your own DIY advent calendar with hidden
gems.
For Him/for Her/ For Kids
Let’s not forget any of the family members! Your
best bet is to make a gift set or a ready-made
beauty kit – many brands offer them and they
are ideal for our beauty advent calendar hung on
the fireplace, waiting to be unwrapped every day,
counting to December 24th!
Perfumeries and department stores are full
of beautifully wrapped cosmetic sets, fresh
fragrances and pretty pallets, shopping got way
easier the last few years! Something limited
edition is always a great way to show that
you’re not just opting for the safe gift ideas,
rather tempting your gift with a challenge to try
something new before the year is out!

Eye shadow palettes are always a good bet for
your gal friends – eye shadow is such a versatile
product that will always come in handy – aside
from rocking a sexy smoky eye, it can be doubled
up as a blush or bronzer, or crushed up into clear
nail polish for a new texture. And it can be super
small and compact to place in one of the boxes in
December!
Be the highlight of your Christmas crew - strobing
sets create new advantages to the skin – light
reflecting particles applied to the parts of your
face that catch the sun will make you gleam! The
tip of the nose, chin, the middle of the forehead
and the cupid’s bow are the key areas to get
the best out of your look. Want something more
natural? Apply blush to the cheekbones instead.
But really, ANY type of highlighter – we stan!
