Continuing on with my Christmas Gift Guides for 2020, we have one for the ladies next! Every year without fail I find myself browsing though the Christmas gift sets and trying to resist the urge to buy things for myself! And with so many amazing new releases on the market at the minute, I find myself doing the same thing! This is a hefty post, so sit back with a cuppa and hopefully find some gift inspo for your mum, sister, best pal - whoever the ladies in your life are!

Temple Spa Do Not Disturb Gift Set
I was actually introduced to Temple Spa whilst visiting Seaham Hall Spa and quickly fell in love with their values and products. Since then I've tried various products and ranges from them and have always been impressed with the quality of their products. Over on their site you'll find various Christmas gift sets including the Temple Spa Do Not Disturb Gift Set which aims to relax, calm and restore yourself. In this set you'll find the Quietude Sleep Well Mist, the Drift Away Massage Oil, the BeCalm Soothing Face Mask, the Repose Resting Cream, the Duvet Comforting Body Cream AND a mini novelty pillow! You really can't put a price on a good nights sleep, but at £46 this gift is an absolute steal for a set filled with such high quality products!
BaByliss Berry Crush Tong
Moving onto hair, another brand I'm also a huge fan of is BaByliss. I actually remember my first ever pair of straighteners being from BaByliss and I absolutely love them. Well for Christmas 2020 why not gift someone the BaByliss Berry Crush Tong! Equipped with a 25mm barrel, this tool is perfect for creating soft, smooth, defined curls. It also is perfect for all hair types as you can adjust the heat with 30 different settings to ensure minimum heat damage. Not to mention it looks amazing! I love the mix of the berry and copper tones - perfect for Christmas! And can you believe this curling tong is only £30?!
Nivea Soft Rose Collection
Another brand I remember using when I was younger and all my family members loving is Nivea. I really think you can't go wrong with a Nivea Gift Set at Christmas. The range of products available and the way they're formulated means they cater for everyone and anyone. One set I think would make an amazing affordable skincare gift this year is the Nivea Soft Rose Collection. This collection includes the Micellar Rose Water Wash Gel, 2 in 1 Rose Water Cleanser & Toner, Indulgent Moisture Diamond Shower Cream, Rose & Argan Oil Lotion, Bye Bye Dry Skin Face Mask, and Pearly Shine Lip Balm. So as you can see, you're definitely getting your value for money with this gift set!
Baylis & Harding Urban Barn Lime, Basil & Mint Set and Baylis & Harding Sweet Grapefruit Essentials Set
Every year I always include some gift sets from Baylis & Harding. And that is because I think they're an amazing brand who create fantastic products for all ages and genders, and yet still manage to keep their prices really affordable. The first set I want to share with you is the Urban Barn Lime, Basil & Mint Gift Set which contains a Body Cleanser, Shower Creme, Moisturising Hand Cream and matching Candle. I don't know about you but I love when gift sets have candles! I think this would be a lovely gift for someone who's maybe just moved homes, or someone who's just really into their homeware!
The second set I would recommend is the Baylis & Harding Sweet Grapefruit Essentials Set. I wish you could smell this through your screen because oh my god this scent is incredible! This trio contains a Body Wash, Body Lotion and Shower Creme. Beautifully packaged with red ribbon, this set would is already Christmas wrapped for you!
Too Faced Cinnamon Bear Set & Lip Injection Trio
Moving onto makeup now and let's be honest Too Faced absolutely kill it every single year with their gift sets. And 2020 is certainly no exception! The Cinnamon Bear Makeup Set is something you all went crazy for when I shared it on my Instagram stories! In this adorable set you'll find the Limited Edition Cinnamon Bear Eyeshadow Palette, a Melted Matte Longwear Lipstick and a Cinnamon Bear Makeup Bag! Full of warm and toasty browns and reds, the eyeshadows paired with the deep red lipstick make the perfect festive makeup look. And the best part? It smells like cinnamon!
I also wanted to quickly mention the Too Faced Lip Injection Plumping Trio. If you've tried the original Lip Injection Gloss then you're going to love this. This gloss delivers those plump, full lips thanks to their breakthrough formula. In this set you'll find three mini glosses in Original, Pumpkin Spice and Christmas Cookie.
Ted Baker Heavenly Harmony Set
Ted Baker is brand that regularly gets gifted every year in my family - especially to my mum who loves their products! It's easy to see why their gift sets are so popular every year, everything from the products to their design is so feminine and sophisticated. This year I would recommend the Ted Baker Heavenly Harmony Set which contains both makeup and bodycare products. Inside you can find the Opulent Crush Shimmer Body Oil, Body Wash & Body Spray, as well as some makeup picks such as a Mini Mascara, Rose Gold Eyeshadow and Nude Lip Gloss.
Floral Street Wonderland Peony Beauty Bag Set
Moving onto fragrances now, and of course I had to include something from Floral Street. One set I had my eye on and thought would make a lovely gift for the ladies in your life is the Floral Street Wonderland Peony Beauty Bag Gift Set. First of all can we talk about the design of the bag? How gorgeous! This set contains a travel sized Wonderland Peony fragrance as well as a matching Body Cream. With notes of Blackcurrant, Violet and Vanilla this scent is fruity, floral and captivating!
Flower by Kenzo Poppy Bouquet EDP
A fragrance that is new to my collection is Flower by Kenzo Poppy Bouquet. The original Flower by Kenzo is a popular pick, so why not try the new twist on the classic fragrance. With notes of Nashi Pair, Bulgarian Rose, and Almond Wood, this fragrance is the perfect balance between floral and woody. The addition of Nashi Pair makes this EDP fresh and invigorating, whilst the more woody floral base notes add a sensual twist on the fragrance. Prices start at £47.
Missguided Babe Vibes EDP
If you're a perfume lover, but are looking for something more affordable then the Missguided Fragrances are a great shout! I've tried a couple of different scents in the past, but the latest one I've fell in love with is the Missguided Babe Vibes EDP. With vibrant fruity notes of Bergamot, Pear, and Pistachio, as well as more warm notes of Almond Milk, Patchouli, and Amber, this fragrance is packed full of amazing scents! The best part? It's under £30 for an 80ml bottle (or can in this case!).
Lily England Marble Luxe Makeup Brush Set
Next up we have a gift for the makeup lovers from Lily England. The Black & Rose Gold Marble Luxe Makeup Brush Set is the ultimate in luxury makeup brushes. In total you get 9 brushes in this bag which includes: Large Powder Brush, Sculpt & Glow Brush, Kabuki Foundation Brush, Fan Brush, Luxe Crease Brush, Pencil Eye Brush, Eyeshadow Packer, Angled Brush, and Smudger Brush. You truly do have everything you need in this set to do a full makeup look. I love the marble design and packaging, it's so sleek which is easy for travelling, and the the material is super easy to wipe down when cleaning.
Cohorted Colour Wow Exclusive Classic Box
You may all know Cohorted for their Beauty based subscription boxes, but did you know they actually offer more than just that?

Wolf & Gypsy T-Bar Necklace
Finally, I wanted to end this gift guide with a piece of jewellery I've absolutely been loving lately and wanted to share with you. It's the Wolf & Gypsy Gold T-Bar Necklace which is priced at £39. I'm someone who prefers more dainty necklaces which are easy to layer, which is why I've always loved the classic T-Bar design! If you are someone who likes to layer your pieces, this necklace is actually available in different lengths which is really useful. This gold plated sterling silver necklace is made from recycled precious metals, and comes with eco friendly packaging! For only £39 I think this is a timeless design that women of all ages will love as a Christmas gift!
Which of these do you think would make the best gift?
