The Fenwick Beauty Bag - Gift with purchase

There is a lot of gifting going on right now from stores and brands to tempt you in. Today sees the turn of Fenwick and their beauty bag which is a free gift with purchase (GWP).
The Fenwick Beauty Bag - Gift with purchase
To qualify for the GWP, which looks just stunning, all you have to do is spend £125 in the beauty hall and you'll receive our complimentary Beauty Bag. Thankfully this off also works with the Fenwick Beauty Advent Calendar, which if you don’t have one yet, might just encourage you because it too, is a beauty.

Beauty bag includes:

  • Clarins Fresh Scrub 15ml
  • Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder
  • Nars Smudge-Proof Eyeshadow Base
  • Clinique Moisture Surge 72 Hour 7ml
  • Mavala Black Cherry Nail Colour
  • Philip Kingsley Perfecting Primer 60ml
  • Benefit Bad Gal Bang Mascara
  • L'Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream
  • Sarah Chapman Platinum Stell Cell Eye Mask
  • Fenwick Linen Face Covering
  • Fenwick Spa Headband
I think this is a cute GWP and it would make a nice gift for someone if you didn’t keep it for yourself. I like that there is a mixture of skincare and makeup in the bag and it’s a bargain for £125 spend!

HARVEY NICHOLS Men's Must Haves

This is a hamper for the man in your life and admittedly it is pretty good! I have already posted a list of Male Advent Calendars on my blog and seemingly there are more every year, but still not as many as us girls get. Anyway, Harvey Nichols have put together a rather fabulous looking Men's Must Haves.
It will be on sale very soon and priced at £165* which, again when you see the contents, it works out to be a pretty good price. Described as being a Must Have Hamper whether "he’s already a skincare savant or just in need of a little nudge" and it boasts some hand-picked grooming gifts in an array of effective and easy-to-use essentials he’ll love.

Packaged inside a sleek black presentation box, like the hampers I shared previously here and here, it also has the Harvey Nichols name written in silver lettering. As for the contents of the box, I have shared them below.

Contents:

  • Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream 30ml
  • Tom Ford For Men Eye Treatment
  • Le Labo The Noir Shower Gel
  • Elemis Ice Cool Foaming Shave Gel
  • Dr Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Extra Strength Peel - 5 Applications
What I like about this Must Have gift box is that the number of products has been kept to a minimum and isn't something he will open and think 'how many products do I need to use' which some of my male friends would absolutely say. Instead, this is a nice little introduction to skincare which is easy to follow and is not too onerous on time.

Harvey Nichols Let It Glow Beauty Hamper

If the Harvey Nichols Beauty Lovers Hamper, which I shared on my blog a little earlier today is a little bit outside of your budget, then at less than half the price, there is an alternative - the Let It Glow Beauty Hamper which is right here*.
Harvey Nichols Let It Glow Beauty Hamper
Described as being perfect for the 'savvy skincare lover', this Let It Glow Hamper has been expertly curated and a collection of products has been chosen to keep your complexion looking healthy and radiant right through to the new year.

Again, as with the Beauty Lovers Hamper, this one comes packaged inside a black wicker basket with Harvey Nichols emblazoned on the front in silver lettering to give it that pure luxe feel.  Inside there is a whole host of products to create that skincare routine from some amazing brands.

Contents:

  • Emma Hardie Cleansing Cloths - set of 3
  • Sarah Chapman Ultimate Cleanse 100ml
  • Sunday Riley C.E.O. Glow Face Oil 35ml
  • MZ Skin Tone & Lift Facial Toner
  • Elemis Superfood Glow Priming Moisturiser 60ml
This Let It Glow Beauty Hamper will go on sale for £160* and you can find it right here, it would make a great treat for yourself or a gift for that beauty lover in your life!
