TJ Hughes Christmas Gifts PLUS £60 Gift Card GIVEAWAY!

Who doesn’t spend hours online sourcing better prices for their beauty products or hoping there is a discount code lurking somewhere? I am one of those people who will put the effort into finding the absolute best price and in my time, I’ve had some real bargains.  One of those bargains came from TJ Hughes a few years ago with a gift for my mum. This year I have been I was kindly gifted a few items from the TJ Hughes Christmas Range and they have also kindly given me a £60 voucher to give away to one of you.

If you have never heard of TJ Hughes before, they are a discount department store chain who specialises in everything from homeware and electrical goods to clothing and beauty. As well as having an online presence, they also have physical stores too, the nearest one for me living in London being Harlow. TJ Hughes first started trading in 1912 and since day one they have been offering customers premium brands at discounted prices up to 70% off RRP. Their aim is to provide savvy shoppers with top brands at affordable and competitive prices and those brands include Remington, Clinique, French Connection and Fiorelli to name just a few.


My hubby is a tad obsessed with aftershaves, he probably has one for every day of the week for 3 months without having to wear the same one twice! So my first gift of choice was from Issey Miyake with L'Eau Bleu d'Issey Eau Fraiche.  As a fragrance, it is one which has been around for quite a few years but has somehow escaped the misters' collection.

Described as being a Floral Woody Musk, it features top notes of rosemary, bergamot and mint, heart notes of mate herb, pink pepper and may rose before closing with the base notes of musk and patchouli.  It is a really lovely fresh peppery scent which is just beautiful as both the rosemary and the mint fight for your attention, as it settles on the skin the musk and patchouli really linger.  L'Eau Bleu d'Issey Eau Fraiche has an RRP £36 but with TJ Hughes it costs just £18.95.


The following products for this little TJ Hughes gift guide come from Baylies and Harding with a selection of Gift Sets and this is a first for me with this brand, it is one I have heard and read so much about, but until now, had never tried. The first two gift sets I chose have come from the men's section and they are the Baylis and Harding Citrus, Lime and Mint Grooming Trio Gift Set and the Baylis and Harding Men's Black pepper & Ginseng Travel Essential Gift Set, both of which are amazingly discounted.


The Citrus, Lime and Mint Grooming Trio includes a 300ml Hair & Body Wash, a 200ml Shower Gel and a 200ml Aftershave Balm.  Each one of these products is fragranced with Citrus, Lime and Mint which not only gives a truly refreshing scent of woody base notes alongside the freshness of lime and bergamot.

The body wash and shower gel work to cleanse the skin and to leave it with a fresh lingering aroma and the aftershave balm soothes and nourishes the skin.  This has the kind of scent that I would be willing to bathe in.  This set has an RRP £15 and from TJ Hughes it is priced at £12.99.

The second set which is the Baylis and Harding Men's Black pepper & Ginseng Travel Essential Gift Set is one I chose because the mister travels a lot with work and this set is really handy to have.  Inside there is a 100ml Hair & Body Wash, 100ml Face Wash, a 50ml Shower Gel and a 50ml Aftershave Balm. Again, this is another scent I absolutely love and is also one I would be more than happy to use too.

It features a Black Pepper and Ginseng fragrance which is described as being a sophisticated, yet stimulating, blend of fruity, spicy top notes and rich sandalwood and cedar base notes, one which is definitely more masculine than feminine but a fragrance I really love. This set has an RRP £12 but with TJ Hughes it costs just £9.99.

The final item within this collection is all for me and it is the Baylies and Harding Sweet Mandarin & Grapefruit Ultimate Bathing Gift Set. This really is quite the gift set and it features everything you need for that at-home spa session on a Sunday afternoon.

Inside the box you will find a 300ml Refreshing Body Wash, a 300ml Luxury Bath Milk, a 130ml Luxury Shower Crème, a 130ml Moisturising Body Lotion, a 150g Cleansing Soap and 100g Bath Soak Crystals.

This scent is said to be Baylies and Harding most popular and I can see why. The Sweet Mandarin and Grapefruit scent is wonderfully refreshing at the same time as being zesty and the fragrance works through every single product within the box. I absolutely love the luxury bath milk, it is by far my most favourite to use and that follows with the Refreshing Body Wash which is perfect for those cold winter mornings to wake you up. This gift set has an RRP £25 but with TJ Hughes it costs just £14.99 which is such a great saving.
