Hey Lovelies, 

Christmas is all about going to parties for many of us. Whether they be at home, at friends or a special event hosted by work or others, the festive season comes with many different occasions to get ready for. Glitter, sparkles, and sequins are plastered everywhere, and we just can’t help using this time to dress up and go all out. Rightly so in fact!

As someone who doesn’t wear make-up at all, I do try to put on a little bit when it comes to Christmas. I want to be able to reflect a disco ball of all means throughout December and so, I spend a lot of the year looking for pieces that will make my outfits glow at the end of the year.

During November, I was sent some amazing pieces from Amazon, celebrating their upcoming collections that would make great editions to any festive make-up looks or in stockings and sacks as presents. Here are just a few of my favourites:

Makeup Brush Cleaner Cleaning Tool, Eono by Amazon, £4.99: Before you even get started, it is best to give all your tools a good clean. If you haven’t used a few of them since last December, then give them a fresh new look and prepare them like yourself for the busiest party month of the year with this cleaning tool. Super speedy but really effective, it is like getting new brushes once used.

EX1 Cosmetics Invisiwear Liquid Foundation 6.0, Superdrug, £12.50: Some liquid foundations can be sticky, yet this olive-based toned liquid isn’t like that. With the sparkly lights of Christmas creating a glow, this adds a subtle shine that comes from Superdrug’s Best Breakthrough Brand 2019. In a large bottle, it will last you throughout December into the new year, making it perfect for all those festive party looks.

Kabuki Flat Brush, Eono by Amazon, £6.85: Applying make-up during the festive season has never been easier than it is with this make-up brush. Smooth and shiny, it applies foundation, blusher and more with ease, making getting ready even quicker. Perfect if you spend time sitting on your bed in a towel wasting essential time like me aha!

Personalised Make-up Bag, Amazon Handmade, £6.95: Whether you are travelling home or wanting a piece to transport your make-up during the Christmas season, this make-up bag is perfect. Big enough to store all essentials, this is the one to make all your festive moves with.

Professional Duo Eyebrow Brush, Eono by Amazon, £3.19: Prepping my eyebrows is something I often do but filling them is rare. During the Christmas party seasons, use this handy brush to help paint them on or to keep them under control. Having the duo makes it a lot easier and for £3.19, it is affordable too.

EX1 Cosmetics Blusher in Natural Flush, Superdrug, £9.50: In a first for make-up, EX1 is a brand dedicated to olive skin tones and this blusher is beautiful. Smooth and powerful, it leaves a holiday looking finish on cheeks. Working with all skin tones to give a perfect glow, this is a smooth finish for olive bases and more, with no need to reapply all day due to its staying power.

Invisibobble Original Hair Ties, Amazon Launchpad, £4.42: Hair up or hair down, it is one of the big decisions when it comes to getting ready for Christmas. However, with these Invisibobble ties, you will be able to put your hair up with little effort, even if you start the night out with it down. And your hair won’t get ruined if you decide to put it back down, as these are specialised in making sure no crimps are made.

EX1 Cosmetics Beauty Egg, EX1 Cosmetics, £12.99: Real Techniques was the brand that made the beauty eggs a must, yet the world of makeup is always changing and introducing us to new brands such as these. Coming with a beautiful black case to make sure it doesn’t get ruined or put any product on your other makeup pieces, this Beauty Egg smooths on the foundation with ease. Leaving a great finish to all skin tones.

TOUCHBeauty 360° Rotary Heated Eyelash Curler, Amazon Launchpad, £19.49: Get dreamy lashes this Christmas, with this heated eyelash curler. Gone are the days when you would have to wait around to get them, as the heated edition makes it so much easier to get up to your eyebrow lashes. This is the piece I would use the most out of all of them, as I love my eyelash curlers and they always get picked out of everything to make me feel party-ready.
