Mini Make-Up Must-Haves
Have you heard?
MAC Cosmetics has just released the most adorable collection of miniature must-haves. The little lipsticks are so gosh darn cute, we want to get them all! And with Christmas just around the bend, these will make the perfect stocking filler. You can get your hands on tiny versions of their stunning lipsticks, lipgloss, skincare goodies, mascaras, the Prep & Fix +, loose powder pigments and even their gentle wipes. Perfect for travelling or if she (or you) likes to carry light when it comes to make-up on-the-go.

A Beautiful Scent
There are so many lovely fragrances available but they can cost a pretty penny, an arm AND a leg. And the worst part is buying a scent as a gift and it's not right (too fruity, too sweet, too musky, you know what we mean). All that moola wasted! Now you can head to
My Perfume Shop and choose from a selection of designer fragrances from their mini collection. Not only do they make cute gifts but you can buy several without busting the bank! As for brands, you can get your hands on names such as Anna Sui, Azzaro Chrome, Boucheron Place Vendôme, Bvlgari and many more.
Charm-ing Gifts
You can never go wrong with something sparkly from
Pandora. We absolutely love their Build-a-Bracelet option. So, if she hasn’t started her Pandora collection yet, then this Christmas is the perfect time to get cracking! Choose a bracelet and a few pretty charms and voilà, a stunning stocking filler for that special someone. There are SO MANY charms to choose from as there’s practically a collection for EVERYTHING – Christmas-themed charms, something for moms, beautiful floral patterns, glass beads, dangly ones, spacers (bits that go between your charms), etc.
Beautiful Brows
Give the gift of beautiful brows with a collection of stunning Benefit Cosmetics brow goodies! Benefit is the best in the brow business, so they’ll definitely have the ideal product for her. Personally, we love the Ka-Brow Eyebrow Cream Gel. And with the new mini version, gorgeous caterpillars can be created on the go, whenever, wherever. Check out the rest of their mini collection which includes everything from bronzers, highlighters and lip stains to eye creams and mascaras. You can get Benefit Cosmetics at
Edgars.

Treat The Senses
Another goodie on our Christmas stocking filler wish list is something from
Jo Malone. Have you ever smelt a Jo Malone candle or tried their body lotions or soaps? You haven’t lived until you’ve taken a whiff of Jo Malone treats! And for Christmas, they have a lovely collection of 'Sparkling Gifts' for you to choose from. From festive and luxurious Christmas crackers and merry ornaments (both containing gifts of indulgence) to colognes, candles, an Advent calendar and body crème, these are fab treats to add to a Christmas stocking.

Chocolate!
Christmas just isn’t Christmas without one of those adorable
Lindt chocolate teddies with the ribbon! We just had to add it to our wish list. And besides, nothing beats chocolate… except wine, of course. But if the little bear is a little too small, then check out the variety tins jam-packed with an assortment of different Lindor choccies. There’s also a choc-filled Advent calendar.

Trendy Sunglasses
This is a pricey option, but everyone needs a pair of designer sunglasses. And if she (or you) have a preferred designer brand, then visit
Sunglass Hut to suss out the latest eyewear trends, frames and collections. They have everything from Michael Kors, Ray-Ban, Oakley and Dolce & Gabbana to Gucci, Armani, Prada and Bvlgari. We’re hoping to find a pair of Pradas in our stocking this year!
Something Cheeky
We left this one for last, because as the heading suggests… it’s a little cheeky! But as the saying goes, “Life's too short to wear mediocre underwear.” There’s one place that always pops into our heads when we're in need of some sexy lingerie –
La Senza! Go on, spice up her Christmas with something sexy, slinky and sassy.
