Buying gifts for guys that they will love doesn’t have to be tough. In fact, more and more these days, buying gifts for guys has become easier, because the males are just as spoilt for choice when it comes to all the great things out there. For this gift guide, I had my hubby help me out a bit, because he’s one of those guy’s that’s really (and I do mean really) difficult to buy for. He’s the type, who when he wants something, before I even get a chance to consider it as a good gift option, he’s already bought it for himself. So what do you get him that he wants and needs, but possibly doesn’t have – or doesn’t think he wants? Well that’s what I’m about to share with you…

Twinkle Twinkle little star! Once again, the festive season is upon us and CHANEL has launched another gorgeous collection of makeup to get you feeling festive this season! The collection absolutely encourages seduction and sensuality. It’s all about twinkling metallic highlights, sensual eyes, glam lashes and bewitching lip colours in a choice of satin or velvet finish. The collection features the exclusive OMBRES MATELASSÉES DE CHANEL eyeshadow palette “Charming”, which has five eyeshadows that can be mixed and matched to create sculpted looks. A combination of satiny and iridescent shadows all beautifully embossed with the iconic quilted CHANEL motif. The single eyeshadow options come in one of two beautiful ILLUSION D’OMBRE cream-to-powder eyeshadow pots. “Fatal”, which is the beautiful silvery-violet shade featured in my pictures, as well as a platinum bronze colour, “Initiation”. Also for the eyes, LIGNE GRAPHIQUE DE CHANEL which is a bronze liquid liner and CILS SCINTILLANTS mascara in “Bronze Platine” which adds depth and layers of bronze sparkle to the lashes. The show-stoppers from this collection, in my opinion at least are the lipsticks! The packaging is sophisticated and chic with a case that presses to open. They come in three colour options and two variations. ROUGE ALLURE VELVET in “La Desiree”, is an intense burgundy shade, while “La Precieuse” offers a bold and vibrant red. For…
