Hot looks that shine on cold nights
Magic, Mirth and Mischief is the name of Mac's dangerously feminine Christmas make-up look, which takes pink and makes it shimmer with a naughty prettiness.
Lightly define brows with Fling and Lingering Eye Brows (10) and blend soft pearl Mylar Eye Shadow (11) under brow, then shade pink and gold Under Your Spell Mineralize Eye Shadow over lid and create a defined contour through the centre of the crease with a small brush and the burgundy and gold It's a Miracle Mineralize Eye Shadow. For further tips or to buy products, check out www.maccosmetics.co.uk or visit Harvey Nichols in Leeds.
Get an entire party look in one box. Selling like hot cakes at Boots is Front Cover, priced 10-35, a make-up line influenced by the catwalk. Everything you need to create a specific make-up look is presented in one box (on at three for two now in Boots – and April, by the way, will
see the introduction of Frontcover as a year-round brand there).
How do you make your fragrance last all Christmas Day? Yardley has come up with these top tips. Eau de toilette fragrances should always be applied directly to skin and can be sprayed all over as a faint mist. For maximum staying power, apply perfume after your morning shower; target areas that radiate the most heat, such as the neck, wrists and chest and your body heat will gently emit your scent throughout the day – and don't forget hidden hot spots, behind the knees and around the ankles. Exude your scent from top to toe by applying your chosen fragrance lightly through your hair. The Yardley Heritage Fragrance Collection features Orange Blossom, Geranium and Hyacinth eau de toilette fragrances, each priced at 9.95 for 50ml in a floral gift box. From Boots, stockists on 01276 674 000 or www.yardleylondon.co.uk.
Peter's Andre's new scent Unconditional (for women) would be a great gift for either Team Pete members or for a cherished female friend or relative. With heart notes of rose, evening jasmine and rich patchouli, top notes of soft apricot, base notes of dark amber, vanilla and musks, it's a fruity, floral and sexy fragrance with a light-hearted feel. Can't imagine Katie Price wears it, though. It costs 14.99 for 30 ml online at www.theperfume shop.com, from Perfume Shop stores or from other stockists on 0845 601 1950.
We all love scented candles. Luxury fragrance brand Miller Harris has come up with this glorious Bois Votive Candle gift set for Christmas, containing three individually scented, natural wax candles. Bois Sucre combines sweet winter berries, fig, cardamom and osmanthus with a base of Moroccan cedar and vanilla. Bois Fum has an immediate impression of smoky birch and black tobacco, with an undertone of nutmeg and cumin, and Bois Noisette reveals roasted chestnuts, dark chocolate and pimento berries. Three 80g candles are 40 from stockists on 0844 561 0992 or visit www.millerharris.com.
