Almost all of us have that one friend who loves animals and is an advocate of the environment. Can you still give them Christmas makeup gifts? Definitely!

9. Chantecaille Exclusive Luminescent Eye Shades Trio

Chantecaille Exclusive Luminescent Eye Shades Trio

Chantecaille is one of those brands that’s all about using the powers of nature to benefit our skin in the right way. This collection comes in 6 different shades. Each one was made to help save a different animal in Africa that’s sadly going extinct. A good cause, who wouldn’t want to save those beautiful animals?

Each of the shades is for a different animal and I love how it’s reflected in the colour. The colours are based on the colour of the animal that it represents. I also love the print on the shadows, in true Chatecaille fashion they are too pretty to use! I would just keep them on display;)

I love this collection, what could be better than getting beautiful makeup and being able to save these precious animals that are so very needed in our ecosystem? Go and make a difference whilst doing your shopping this Christmas!

Chantecaille Exclusive Luminescent Eye Shades Trio is currently sold out.

Besides, no one will even know it’s a lip balm! This is one of those gifts that you can’t go wrong with and it will bring a smile to every girl’s face.

  1. Very nice post. What better way to surprise my sister in this coming Xmas than to get her a very good makeup gift for her. Left to me, I fancy every bit of the products you have shared because they all look rather very good to me. But then, I feel that the one that can suit perfectly is the Golden Goddess Set. I like the things in it.

    1. It’s a lovely set! I’m sure your sister will love it:)

  2. Those are really nice gift ideas! I have been looking for a gift for a friend who barely take care of her skin, and I think The Beauty Box Set by Lancome is just right for her. It already comes with both skincare and makeup items and nicely packed into the lovely cosmetic case. It is so nice I am tempted to get a set for myself too! 

    1. I also have that problem when I buy beauty gifts for others, I always want to get one for myself too!

    Makeup is one of the best holiday gifts and makes for a perfect stocking stuffer indeed, and as such I find your post to be very helpful with holiday season approaching. From your recommendations I really like the  Trooper Black Eyeliner Obsession, the limited edition travel brush set by COLORJUST and the Sweet & Shimmer Lip Balm. I have three young ladies I still need to shop for and these will make for the perfect gifts. Thanks for the tips!

    1. Thanks for stopping by and happy shopping!
