Blogmas Day 5: Gifts on a BUDGET

We have already seen gift ideas specifically chosen for HER, HIM and BEAUTY LOVERS. But, if you are looking for a more affordable option or when buying for a secret Santa, these ideas might come in handy: 

1.               SLEEKBlush by 3 – Flame

A lovely set of 3 festive blushes is a perfect little gift for a girl. Great quality for a great price and they come in a lovely little compact.

2.               SLEEKDip It Eyeliner - Forest Green

In the festive season, green is one of the most common colours, so why not incorporate it into a makeup routine? This eyeliner is really good, but brings a bit of diversity to a makeup look. Great gift or stocking filler.

3.               EssenceMerry Berry Highlighting Powder

Most of the TE collections from Essence are quite, season themed and affordable. Their Christmas collection this year is gorgeous, and the highlighter is one of the must haves!

4.               IHeart Makeup Eyeshadow Palette - Death By Chocolate

As I’ve said many times before, it’s hard to go wrong with a nice neutral eyeshadow palette. This one is cute, but has many versatile and beautiful shades in it. It has great pigmentation for the price and would be a nice substitute for the actually chocolate we usually gift during the holidays.

5.              Catrice Ultimate Nail polish 38 Vino Tinto

For those who like nail polish, Catrice has some great shades available, this shade being one of them. It’s a gorgeous deep vine colour, perfect for winter.

6.               EssenceWinter? Wonderful! Eyeshadow Palette

Another TE eyeshadow palette from Essence, this is such a cute selection of winter shades in lovely little festive packaging.

7.               EssenceWinter? Wonderful! – Caring Lip Gloss

To battle dry lips, this lip oil might seem like a bit of a novelty, but actually feels really good on the lips and adds a bit of colour at the same time. Perfect for those who are just starting with makeup.

8.               EssenceMerry Berry Scented Golden Powder 01

Not necessary at all, but a lovely addition to the makeup collection is this gorgeous little bottle of sparkly magicness. Who doesn’t like a bit of sparkle in the festive season?

9.    (also 14.)            Pastrycutters

While they might seem a very “used” idea, a couple of cookie cutters can make a great gift, especially if you package them with enough ingredients to start with the first batch.

10.            Cutetins / boxes

Either on their own, or as a gift wrapping idea, cute tins or boxes are always welcome. If you fill them with a handful of delicious homemade cookies, they will be a real hit.

11.            Candledish

Stars are an occurring theme at Christmas time, but there can never be enough (at least in my opinion). A little candle plate, maybe gifted with a couple of scented candles, would be such a cute gift.

12.            Scentedcandle

For me, there is never enough scented candles in my life. While cinnamon is probable the traditional scent to go for in December, there are so many different scents available everywhere, you are bound to find something suitable for the one you are buying for.

13.           Yankee Candle Scented Tarts

If you don’t like to gift candles, scented tarts are also a great smelling idea. They kick off a crazy amount of scent and would be a lovely little gift.

15.            CandleHolders

With candles, you can always pair a nice candle holder, this one in particular is cute and has tiny stars, but best of all, satisfies my love of copper.

16.            NessieLadle

When buying a gift for a family, there is always an options of buying cute kitchen utensils. This Nessie inspired one stole my heart this year, but there is an abundance of different options available for you to choose from.

See you tomorrow!

Rawr,

your Beautysaur
