What I got for Christmas 2012

Hello!
Hope you've all had a wonderful Christmas and a very happy start to the new year :)
I love reading these types of posts, so thought I would do one of my own about the fabulous things I got this year.
It goes without saying that I am not bragging about the things I was given, I just think it's fun to see what other people have asked for/been given. I was very spoilt this year and I am very grateful. 
My main present this year was a Blackberry, which I forgot to photograph but I'm sure you all know what they look like!

'Keep Clean and..' Shower gel and body lotion in Lime, Basil and Mandarin scent. M&S Bubble bath in Fig and Orange Oil.

Primark bag and matching purse.

YSL Cinema and Clinique Chubby stick intense in Grandest Grape

No7 illuminated mirror.

JLS Evolution, One Direction Take me home, Victoria Wood's Midlife crisis, Miranda series 2, Mrs Brown's Boys live, Mousehunt.

Baileys minis

Barry M Dewberry body shampoo, bubble bath and body lotion.

M&S fig and orange oil hand and nail cream

What was your favourite Christmas present? I got some money as well but I've been too scared to hit the sales so far, might have a go tomorrow!

Candy cane nails

Hey guys,

I think I'm well and truly in the festive mood! Yesterday I was sat watching Elf, snuggled up on the sofa with a hot choc, having finished my present wrapping, when I decided I would attempt something christmassy with my nails.

All I want for Christmas is...Part 2

Okay so, turns out all I want for Christmas is actually quite alot of stuff! So, here's a few more bits that I wouldn't mind Santa leaving under my Christmas tree!

All I want for Christmas is..

 I don't know about you, but as soon as it gets to November (actually, probably more like September or October!), I start to get really excited about christmas sets and extravagent gifts. The sort of things I couldn't justify buying for myself, but would be delighted to receive. As I don't have a boyfriend, or any significant other, and my family tend to stick to sensible presents, I think the gifts on my wish list are most likely to remain firmly there! Still fun to look though, eh? So here's a list of things I am lusting over at the moment! :)

Not my picture.
First up, and the thing I think I want the most out of everything, Prada's new perfume, Candy. This has  notes of musk, vanilla and caramel, and smells gorgeous! I love sugary sweet perfumes, which this is, and the bottle looks so sophisticated! You can get this from Boots, for £53 for 50ml.


Not my picture, again!
The Clarisonic Mia is something that I have heard so much about on youtube and other blogs, and I feel it would totally complete my cleansing routine! Im sure everyone knows about it, so I wont go too far into the details, but it's basically a tool for enhancing your cream cleanser, that rotates to remove more makeup, and cleanse deeper. Everybody totally raves about it, and I need the aqua blue one in my life! You can get this from House of Fraser for £120.


Not my picture..
Another fragance I've been totally lusting over is Viktor and Rolf's Flowerbomb. Notes include rose, orchid and jasmine, and I'm not even going to try and describe it, It's just delicious! You can get this from Boots, £62 for 50 ml, even more expensive than Prada!


Not my picture!
The Urban Decay naked palette is possibly the most hyped thing on youtube! I don't even ever wear neutral eyeshadows, but I would just love to have this in my collection! It looks so nice, and would be great for playing around with different looks. It also includes a mini Primer Potion, which I'm eager to try! You can get this from Debenhams for £35.

Picture, not mine.

This is the Sigma synthetic essentials kit. Completely vegan, and cruelty free, this is the perfect set for foundation, blush, contouring and concealer application. I think this set looks really sleek and professional. Available from www.sigmabeauty.com, this is priced at $99.00, which translates to about £65 according to Google converter! 

I'm sure there are some other things I've forgotten to add, but this is all I can think of right now. So, if anyone could buy me all of these, it would be lovely!
