Women's Christmas Stocking Fillers

Christmas is fast approaching!I've already kicked off the series with Beauty Advent calendars and today is the turn of Women's Stocking Fillers.I've featured products from brands I love including some lovely Irish brands so be sure to check them out.

Cocoa Brown Gradual Bronze (€5.99). You just can't go wrong with anything from the range. I've chosen Gradual Bronze because it's a nice intro into the tanning world and is the most fool proof gradual tan I have ever used. Available nationwide in Penneys,Dunnes, Tesco, Pharmacies and Cloud10Beauty.

W7 In The  Night Palette. On the whole I have seen this for  around the €10 mark but I found a page on Facebook that sells all the W7 palettes for €7. I've ordered a few to have as stocking fillers for friends.

Dream Dots (€14.99) are alway a handy one to have in the house. These have saved me from many an ugly spot. Full lists of stockists can be found on their website

I really like Emmas Soy Candles, while there are lots of lovely scents to choose from, I really like the seasonal scents of Spiced Orange and Mint Crisp. The 20 hour candle is €9.95 and 50 hour tumbler candle is €18.95

Lisa Heeney All Natural Beeswax Lipbalm  (€7) is really lovely and comes in lots of lovely flavours including Chocolate Orange and Peppermint Tingle.

MONDSS Underarm Wear (€9.99) are great for any special occasions. They do take some getting used to but I have used them a good bit now and find them really handy.

How cute is this Happy Boost Blusher from Physicians Formula?? I love it! Sadly there are still very few stands so if you see a stand be sure to point this beauty out. 

The Body Shop has lots of great stocking fillers but I am most intrigued by the new Glazed Apple range especially the body butter (€18.95) Available in all The Body Shop stores.

Waxperts Ingrown Hair Pads (€7.95) I've yet to try these but have heard great things about them. There are a good few stockists including Cloud10Beauty

Wet 'N' Wild Mega Rocks In The Pits. What is Christmas without some glitter? I'm a sucker for glitter polishes and am really loving Wet 'N' Wild's offerings.

There was literally hundreds of products I could have picked but I think these would be a nice addition to any collection.

Beauty Advent Calenders

I tried holding off on posting anything relating to Christmas but chatting to some other bloggers last week got me far too excited so I decided to ease into the Christmas Series with my Beauty Advent Calendar picks

Beauty Advent Calendars are becoming more and more popular. Personally I love the idea of opening each day and finding a beauty treat.I've chosen calendars that have a decent gift for each of the 24 days. I'm aware of a few other brands doing calendars but for the price and what you get in them I don't feel they would be great value for money.
