There are rich offerings in store with gift sets perfect for presents or as a pre-Christmas treat for you. Stephanie Smith investigates.
Mistress of make-up Bobbi Brown has come up with some fabulous products and palettes for Christmas. Check out the new Rich Color Lip Gloss which brings the rich coverage and texture of a smooth, creamy lipstick and the soft shine finish of a lip gloss — without the tacky feel.

Look out too for Earth Metal Lip & Eye Palette, six shimmering eye shadows, four creamy lip colours, a mini eye shadow brush, and mini lip brush. It costs 48.
