With Christmas getting closer and closer (this time of year goes by so quickly, don't cha think?), it's time to think about Christmas gifts, whether it be for someone else, or let's be honest, for yourself! Ulta3, an Australian based cosmetics brand that is now available in NZ too, has released an extensive line up of some amazing Christmas gifts sets to make present buying a little bit easier, especially if you have a makeup/nail polish loving friend or family member!
ADVENT CALENDAR* // RRP $48.00 (but possibly only NZD $35.00)
Possibly my favourite release is this amazing Advent Calendar packed with 24 mini bottles of Ulta3 polishes. I've talked about their nail colours before (see it here) and they have some pretty amazing shades in the range. This is the perfect way to try out a whole lot from them, and how exiting would it be getting a new nail polish every day until Christmas!? I know it's a few days past December 1st, but if you hurry now and get this you will still have plenty of time to count down the days. This would also make an awesome gift, because really who would turn down 24 mini bottles of nail polish!?
LIP + NAIL PACK* // RRP $8.00
This would make a great stocking stuffer, or even a secret Santa gift! This comes with a matching nail colour and lipstick, both full sized. This particular set has the nail colour in Sizzling Red and the coordinating lipstick shade in Wet Red; the nail polish is opaque in one coat and the lipstick can be quite sheer or built up to full on colour in a matter of swipes. There are six different sets like this, so there should be shades to suit most people.
EYE SHADOW + BLUSH PALETTE* // RRP $20.00
Great for a makeup beginner, or a makeup lover, this palette has eight eye shadow colours and two blush shades all housed in a sleek and sturdy black plastic casing.
EYESHADOWS | The eight eye shadows have great pigmentation, you won't find any chalkiness around here! They are smooth and soft, blending easily and packing a punch with colour. The bronze tones and darker smokier colours make the perfect addition to this palette allowing it to work for both day and night.
BLUSHES | The blushes have you covered with a lighter peachy pink and softer baby pink. Both have a slight shimmer to them, but it's nothing two drastic and they compliment the eye shadow shades well.
This is only a small selection of the gift sets available, there are also Lipstick Crayon Trios, 7 and 15 packs of nail colours, and a giant candy cane stuffed with nail polishes (!!), with prices that range from $8.00 up to $40.00. They are well worth checking out if you are stuck for gift ideas! These Ulta3 sets can be found at selected pharmacies around New Zealand, and possibly at Postie's too (as they stock the lipsticks and nail colours).
