9 Days to Xmas: M&S Lavender

Another place I can think of is Marks & Spencer. They sell a great variety of product, well mostly toiletries. They also have perfume and home fragrance. The thing bout them though is that they are for the more mature ladies, I feel. Like I only go there to buy stuff for my mom or my aunt. Another alternative is Crabtree & Evelyn. But that's more for everyone, and it's a little pricier. There's many shops that's perfect for gift set shopping. With so many scent to choose from, I think it's hard to choose just one gift.

And I know you'll go I don't want to buy another hand cream, nor do I want to receive one, but it's Christmas. It's no excuse for another boring present, but I am not suggesting to buy everybody hand creams. Unless that person really need one or want one. I just think these kind of gifts are perfect for those last minute guests or just random gifts.

There are just so many option for Christmas presents, it's really hard to just give a few ideas or even categories. Here I have the lavender floral collection from Marks & Spencer.

So the middle one is the body lotion. On either sides are hand lotion and hand soap which come in a set. It's just a travel size and I don't like the packaging cause it's troublesome. You have to twist the cap open and it will be easily lost if you're not careful.

The scent wise is lovely. I personally love their peach scent. Lavender is pretty much lavender. The lotions are not at all sticky. It absorb really quickly but the moisturizing factor doesn't last that long. So that is pretty much the only bad thing I can say about this. The hand soap just has a light scent, but the cap just makes me not use it. That is it, just a short review. Nothing much to say really.

This is in the shade 201, creamy and a hint of light milky pink. I like that it is pretty, but the shade doesn't really suit me. What I like best is that they can engrave your name on the packaging. So it is pretty. 

Beauty Uk Baked Blush

A red blush looks really intimidating on the box but I picked this up cause I want something different for my collection. It's just a cardboard box kind of packaging, secured with magnet, so it's really simple. It's quite big and like all baked product, it's dome in shape. So it's actually quite bulky. I wouldn't bring it for travel that's for sure. The color payoff is good, but instead of red it's more pink. You can use it sparingly and it will be lighter or you can pack on the color which will gives you a really bright pink. In fact, if lightly dust over your cheek it is more coral than pink. It has tiny specks of shimmer, but it doesn't show. I can't remember how much I bought this for but it wasn't expensive. It's not my favorite blush, but I find myself reaching for it a lot. So that's something isn't?
