It’s all about Christmas now, of course. But, what can I say, I’m always looking for the next big thing. So I already have my Boxing Day plans sorted.

For me, Boxing Day is when you end up with a box full of your favourite beauty products, thanks to the chaotic sales that occur nationwide.

I’m sure I’m not alone. Who doesn’t love stocking up on old faves at a fraction of the price?

Without further ado, here’s my list of the best beauty bargains to race for this Wednesday …
