Video: Five of the Best – Xmas Gifts Over $30

Wed, 28 November 2012 8:25AM

Wondering what to get your mum for Christmas? Me too. Let alone my sister, best friend, aunt and mother-in-law. It’s tough this time of year, but rejoice Primpers, for I have done the hard yards and found these fabulous five gifts for over $30.

Here’s the video…

 

And here are the notes…

Xmas Gift Over $30 #1: Crabtree & Evelyn Winter Garden Fragranced Candle, $45, Crabtree & Evelyn

The perfect ‘I don’t know what else to buy you gift’! Because, who doesn’t love a candle. This particular option burns for 65 hours and smells of holiday greens, frosted apricots, amaryllis and glazed fruits. You don’t get much more festive than that.

Xmas Gift Over $30 #2: Benefit Go TropiCoral Palette, $59, Myer

Embrace the makeup colour of the season with this handy palette from our friends at Benefit. Inside you’ll receive a mini cha cha tint, high beam, coralista lip gloss and blush. Perfection!

Xmas Gift Over $30 #3: Sanctuary Spa 30 Day Youth Revolution, $40, Priceline

I can’t believe how reasonable the Sanctuary Spa range is. This at-home peel might just be what your mum needs, plus, for a cool $40, you’re sure to be left with some pocket change.

Xmas Gift Over $30 #4: The Aromatherapy Company Juniper Berry Diffuser, $39.95, 1800 104 029

If you’re overloaded with cosmetics and can’t bear to buy one more (yep, it can happen) why not go for a sweet-smelling home fragrance instead? I love this diffuser that smells of berries and summer freshness. YUM!

Xmas Gift Over $30 #5: La Mav Skin Brightening Pack, $99.95, La Mav

This certified organic skin-brightening kit is free from all your usual suspects (SLS, parabens, petrochemicals, silicones and talc, I’m talking to you) and leaves your skin looking and feeling absolutely sensational. Just the box wins me over, but once you get inside it just gets better and better.

Tell me Primpers…

What do you think of these gifts over $30?

Have you got any must-haves yourself?

    I’ve tried the Sanctuary Spa range, I was very impressed and was worth it.
