Stocking fillers
I have a few incredible choices of stocking fillers for you to select from.
Nudestix

Plenty to choose from the range! Products are packaged in chic mirror black tin that would be perfect as a stocking filler. The tins could be used as little keepsake boxes, my girls love keeping their little jewelleries in them!
I’ve recently discovered Nudestix and really have fallen head over heels with their formulas and colours. My favourite picks are lip pencils, eye pencils and the lip glaces.
Lancôme Monsieur Big Mascara

It’s no secret that I love Lancôme Monsieur Big Mascara, I collect all the limited-edition packagings if possible! I love the volume it offers as well as longevity with no flakes and smudges. This holiday season, Monsieur Big has a sparkly makeover to wow us all.
