Best Beauty Products For December 2024
Bamford
Roasted Chestnut and Cashmere Candle, £40.00“This candle does what it says and fills the room with the aroma of warm, creamy chestnuts. It also has a lovely pepperiness to it which when combined with spicy amber adds to the festive feels. Exclusive to Space NK, the packaging is just as gorgeous as the scent which is why it makes the perfect gift (read: self-gift).” – Georgie
SHOP NOWMaison Margiela
By the Fireplace Gift Set, £85.00“If you know someone who loves Maison Margiela then you can't go wrong gifting this trio of scents in the seasonal 'By The Fireplace' fragrance. Containing a 30ml, 10ml and 7ml version, I'd keep one on my dressing table, one in my gym kit and one in my handbag. Name me a recipient that wouldn't be over the moon receiving this on Christmas Day!” – Sophie
SHOP NOWHourglass
Scattered Light Glitter Eyeshadow, £29.00“This isn't new but whenever I have a night out or special occasion, this cream eyeshadow is my go-to. Just enough sparkle and shimmer to look 'party' but not OTT, I also love the fact I can apply it with my fingers in a rush. I've often been found at my desk quickly applying it before I head out for the evening. If you haven't tried them, I can't recommend them enough. The intense colour pay off lasts all evening too.” – Sam
SHOP NOWAmika
Blowout Babe Thermal Hairbrush, £95.00"I was a bit dubious about this as I'm a hairdryer and straighteners girl but it's had so much hype on social media, I had to try it. And I'm impressed. It adds just the right amount of bounce to my style and it leaves it super smooth and without any frizz. I doubt there will be a day over the festivities that I don't reach for it!" – Lauren
SHOP NOWDr. Jart+
Ceramidin™ Facial Barrier Mask, £8.50“This sheet mask quite literally drenches your skin in moisture so you can feel an instant difference. I like keeping one in the fridge and then applying it while I'm sitting on the sofa decompressing after work - or at the moment, after post-work socialising! It makes my complexion look brighter and mops up any dry patches so my skin stays and looks smooth too. If you can't squeeze in a facial before Christmas, this is the solution." – Rebecca
SHOP NOWSpace NK
Nordic Wilds Body Lotion, £8.00“I go through body lotion pretty quick because I apply it after every time I shower, so I'm delighted that we've now launched our Space NK body lotions in a jumbo 500ml size. I'm a fan of all the scents but right now it's Nordic Wilds that I'm slathering myself in as it smells of a winter wonderland. It's so fast absorbing I can get dressed straight away without having to wait for it to sink in too.” – Georgie
