Over the weekend, I was hanging around Manhattan and I realized how much I LOVE this time of year! I’m not a huge fan of winter but the holiday season really brings out something special about New York City. The concrete jungle literally lights up everywhere with festive holiday decorations and “Happy Holidays” wishes shared by all – New Yorkers and tourists alike.
I’m clearly mesmerized, and I’ve decided that I wanted to give back! I received SO MANY beauty products this year, and I really wanted to give back to you all. Throughout December, 5 lucky winners will win 1 unique beauty bundle! Winners will be announced on Monday each week beginning on December 3rd. I hope this gives you all some holiday cheer!
So what are in these beauty bundles any way?
1: Essential Makeup Tools ($78 value)
*Update (12/4): This giveaway is closed! Congrats to the winner, @jozw15
I personally LOVE both of these beauty tool brands: Luxie and BeautyBlender. I don’t need to say much about BeautyBlender, because it’s already one of the best makeup applicators available. I am throwing in a BeautyBlender mini, which I find is perfect for small areas of the face, such as under the eye, around the nose, and on the eyelids. Luxie makes beauty brushes which I have been using for about a year now. How cute is the rose gold collection, though?? The Detail Face set includes brushes you can use to apply and blend concealer, eye makeup, and contour. With these tools, you can apply your full face of makeup!
2: Hair Care ($133 value)
You get a few of my favorite brands in this special hair care bundle, including Shea Moisture and Hask, along with full-size shampoo and conditioner by Nexus! You’ll also get an Oribe Texturizing Spray mini (I’m using this right now and currently loving it!)
3: Drugstore Makeup Must Haves ($124 value)
Some more favorites in this bundle, but centered around makeup you can find at the drugstore. Let’s start with Real Techniques – When I don’t have a BeautyBlender handy and need something cheap, the Real Techniques sponges are the best dupe! Each sponge is below $10 (and can get even cheaper per sponge if you buy sets of 2 or more). The diamond shape is absolutely stunning! I’ve always been a huge fan of NYX, and you get a few in this bundle: The Chromatic palette, a cream eyeshadow, and two lippies. A few additional brands that are awesome are included here, like Covergirl, Physicians Formula, and Eyelure.
4: Holiday Beauty ($263 value)
On Christmas Eve, I announce the winner of the highest value beauty set – $263 value for a full face of holiday makeup! Consider this my gift to you 🙂
5: Skincare Must Haves ($203 value)
Finally, it’s time for skincare. Winter can wreak havoc on your skin, so it’s really important to find the right mix of products for your face. You get two facial cleansers (one by Eve Lom, another by Kate Somerville), a Derma-E hydrating mist, and 3 sheet masks. Ring in the new year with hydrated, glowing skin!
