Stocking Fillers for Christmas

The gifts I really enjoy shopping for are stocking filler presents, there is a lot of variety, they tend to be much more fun and you can get some seriously amazing products at fantastic prices. Whether you are buying stocking fillers to complement the gifts you have bought, for your works secret Santa or just because it has caught your eye, I have some pretty amazing products to share.
Stocking Fillers for Christmas
No stocking filler or gift buying can be complete without something from Soap & Glory in my opinion. Christmas is all about those Star Gifts and for just £10 you can grab the Soap & Glory The Zest of Times set from Boots
Soap & Glory The Zest of Times
Nestled inside a tin you will find, as you might have guessed from the name, five products from my favourite Soap & Glory range - Sugar Crush. Include is a 75ml Body Wash, 50ml Body Scrub, 50ml Body Buttercream, 50ml Hand Food and Puffy Eye Attack Mask Under-Eye Brightening Hydrogel Patches.

The Little Beauty Parcel from Feelunique is an absolute must-have. Packaged inside this pretty little box is a beautiful toffee-hued mini lip gloss by Anastasia Beverly Hills
Feelunique feat. Anastasia Beverley Hills
Described as being a warm light brown, this lip gloss offers an opaque, high-shine colour all without being sticky or tacky on the lips.  For just £6 it is worth grabbing as soon as you see it.

From Erborian we have the 1,2,3 Glow Cracker (£18 here).  I have featured Erborian on my blog many times and this cracker is such a great introduction to the brand.

Inside are three incredible products - Glow Cream to add a subtle glow to your skin, CC Cream DORÉ which brightens the complexion and BB Cream Nude to hide your imperfections and create the perfect "Baby skin" effect.

I have mentioned Feather & Down a few times on this blog and this stocking filler is simply divine.  
Feather & Down
The Travel Essentials Kit (£12) which is perfect for staying calm on the go. Inside there are four products - Pillow Spray, Sleep Butter, Relaxing Roll On and Melting Shower Cream.  Each one can be used on their own or together to make that little pampering treat even more effective. 

As far as I am concerned you can never ever have too many Makeup Brushes, more so if you have got yourself a Stylpro Brush Cleanser!  Real Techniques have so many incredible brushes and my collection is quite extensive.
Real Techniques Bright Eyed & Merry
The Bright Eyed and Merry Kit features a collection of four brushes which are perfect for creating that perfect eye look - The first brush is the Shading Brush which is described as being Short + dense for max colour pickup and even distribution.  Then we have the Crease Prep Brush and it has dense angled bristles to layer a light nude shadow onto the lid for an even base and smooth crease shadow application.  The third brush is my favourite brush of the set and it is the Defining Crease Brush, it has long fluffy bristles ensure a light and precise application of shadows in the crease.  Finally, there is the Large Smudge Brush and again it has a densely packed head for a controlled blend allover eyelid As with all Real Techniques collections, none are ever complete without a little mini and this Mini Buffing brush is perfect for travelling with or keeping in your makeup bag.

If you have someone to buy a gift for that likes to use sustainable beauty products, Beauty Kitchen has some amazing stocking fillers on offer.  I absolutely love the Beauty Kitchen Celebration 4 Pack. 
Beauty Kitchen Minis
Inside there are four products, all of which are 6ml each and give you a real insight into what the brand. The first product is the Seahorse Plankton 5 Minute Miracle Mask, then the Seahorse Plankton Beauty Boosting BB Cream, the Abyssinian Oil Facial Moisture Cream and finally, one of my favourite products from the brand which is the Free From Wonder Balm.

I happen to love the Too Faced 'Better than sex' mascara and to have it as a tree hanger is quite special, who wouldn't want to see this hanging on their Christmas tree? This mascara has a collagen-fuelled formula and a specially shaped brush to enhance the volume, length and impact of your eyelashes.

Priced at £10 from Too Faced and John Lewis.


Aside from clothing, FatFace has a whole of beauty products to discover and I have two stocking fillers in my guide to share with you.  The First is a Trio of Lip Balms (£10) and they come beautifully packaged inside a cracker style box.  
Fat Face Stocking Fillers
There are three decorated tins and each one contains a lip balm in one of three fragrances - Mint, Wildberry or Raspberry.  The second product is the Red Hand Care in a Bauble (£6.50) stocking filler and inside this bauble is a tube of Hand cream and nail file.  Both of these are incredibly cute gifts and perfect for that stocking.

I love discovering new perfume brands and Christmas is the perfect time for doing this.  I am already a fan of the brand Clean Reserve who have many beautiful fragrances. The Clean Reserve Warm Cotton [Reserve Blend] Eau de Parfum Travel Spray (£20 from Space NK) is a great Stocking Filler idea. 
Clean Reserve
It is a Fresh Floral fragrance and has notes of benzoin, Vetiver and Watery Ozonic and the three come together to give it a lovely scent which lingers on the skin.



I am really liking Sanctuary Spa at the minute and for Christmas, there is an amazing kit that has everything in you could need.
Sanctuary Spa Minis
This Must Have Mini set (£10 herecontains four deluxe mini products which include: 

  • Body Wash (75ml) - This aromatic cleansing body wash has an infusion of essential oils and Jojoba beads which gently transform into a delicately fragranced foam to leave your body feeling cleansed, moisturised and silky smooth.
  • Body Lotion (75ml) - This body lotion is light and hydrating and uses a blend of Aloe Vera and Jojoba Oil which quickly absorbs in to leave skin feeling replenished, soothed and lusciously moisturised.
  • Body Scrub (50ml) - This gentle daily skin polish is infused with natural Pumice and essential oils, this uplifting and refreshing gel scrub smooths and refines skin to leave it feeling velvety soft.
  • Foaming Bath Soak (75ml) - This is my absolute favourite Sanctuary Spa product and it creates a bath full of nourishing creamy bubbles which smells just incredible. Enriched with Wheat Proteins and soothing Aloe Vera is gentle on skin to leave it feeling velvety soft and supple.

If you have never tried a product from Sanctuary Spa before, then this kit is such a wonderful introduction and it is just perfect if you are off on your travels too.

The Beatitude Peace Christmas Cracker (£10) is a great introduction to what is a really lovely brand.  If you know someone who really lovely their bath oils, then Beatitude is the place to be looking at.  
Beatitude Bath Oil
Inside this cracker is the Peace bath oil which is enriched with the essential oils of Ylang Ylang, Lavender, Mandarin, Petitgrain and Cedarwoood which all have calming properties to help melt that stress away. 

The Venus Glide Spa Kit (£14.99 here) is an absolute essential at this time of the year, especially for getting glammed up for going out.
Venus Glide Spa Breeze
The giftset comes with a ComfortGlide Spa Breeze razor, two extra blades AND a bath pillow for those days you want that to pamper yourself.
Then finally we have Face Halo - I have been intrigued about this product since I read about it in a magazine. Face Halo works with either cold or warm water. 
Face Halo
The water loosens your makeup allowing the HaloTech fiber strands (which are 100 times finer than a human hair) to reach deep into your pores to remove and trap makeup, giving your skin a healthy and invigorating clean in half the time - this is known as the Halo Effect! On sale in Boots for just £7, it is worth trying.

Pretty much all of these products you can find on your high street, so whilst you are rushing around grabbing your sprouts and panic buying, these can be shoved into your baskets too!
