This is no miracle list, but I have gathered a tiny number of items which I think may be useful to some of you out there who are still struggling for gift ideas. They may not be the best but c'mon! You know you saw this coming when you thought, "Nah, I'll wait a week more..." in November.
Crabtree and Evelyn Gift Sets
 |
| Lavender Vanity Treasures, 12-piece hand cream set, Ltd Editon Festive Triple Choc Chunk Biscuits, Festive Cookie Tin, Aloe Vera Body Lotion, and Aloe Vera Travel Set |
Walking past Crabtree and Evelyn today, I still saw stacks of X'mas gifts available for purchase. My biggest haul this year hails from there during the member's preview sale. Their gift sets range from $18 Aloe Travel Sets to the $69 12-piece hand cream sets. Members do get extra discounts so be sure to check out their promotions before purchasing. Really amazing stuff they have at affordable prices.
Yankee Candles and Jo Malone Gift Sets
Can't really go wrong with amazing smelling candles at Christmas. Works just fine at getting one into the Christmas mood coming home to smells of rich vanilla buttery cookies and cinnamon with hints of freshly brewed tea. Or perhaps classic Jo Malone gift sets are just right up your alley. Get me anything Jo Malone I'd be a super happy X'mas camper. They have the best kind of packaging that screams pure class. Price ranges from $59.90 for Yankee Candles to $200 plus for a JM Gift Set.
SK-II Pitera Set
Got this for mummy dearest this year, courier guy dropped it in my arms yesterday and it went straight into hers. She was uber excited of course, SK-II is like the classic Chanel Flap bag that never seems to go out of style. Anyway she was really happy because hers was about to run out, so Merry Christmas Mumsy! :)

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo
A colleague asked me for recommendations on products for acne-prone teen skin for her teenage daughter suffering from puberty spots. La Roche-Posay is a brand which I've recently tried out and I'm over the moon with the results I've gotten with these 2 miraculous drugstore duo. The set consists of a gel cleanser, perfect for someone dealing with oily or acne-prone skin and the amazing anti-clogging Effaclar moisturizer which was the main star at clearing up my spots and preventing others from emerging. My skin went through a very temperamental phase a couple of weeks back. I suffered massive breakouts all over the bottom half of my face with concentrations near the jawline and I was freaking out in all different directions. The last time I had skin this bad was back in Secondary school and those were not good years to reminisce. I went to Watson's just yesterday and was really happy to see that they packaged the 2 star products I've been using together at a very reasonable price. But the SA told me that there are limited stocks left, so for peeps wondering what to get for someone who has trouble with their spots, La Roche-Posay's Effaclar Set is the clear way to go!
Retails for $49.90 and you can get more out of it with your POSB credit card and Watson's membership!
Hugo Boss Nuit Pour Femme and Chanel Noir
I'm currently obsessing over these 2 perfumes at the moment. Dark, mysterious and very very sensual. The perfect Christmas scent. Oh..... me likey very muchie!
Famous Amos Cookies
If you're still lost, I've not met anyone who is not a fan of the world's most popular cookies. Grab the biggest pack you can get your hands on and place them in those really adorable X'mas cookie containers. Then go book a pair of Gold Class tickets to watch Les Miserables followed by a really fantastic meal and top it up with a festive looking bouquet.
And you're done :)
HAPPY last minute SHOPPING! :)
