1. MV Organics Travel Essentials - I’ve been using the Gentle Cream Cleanser, Rose Mist and Rose Soothing & Protective Moisturiser and can highly recommend each one of them: they all have a beautiful fresh rose fragrance and the cleanser and moisturiser have a luxuriously thick texture. This would be a lovely gift set to introduce someone to the MV Organics range. 
2. Trilogy Signature Skincare Collection - This one is a bargain at $26.95 - perfect for a Secret Santa or stocking stuffer! You can scope out my review of Trilogy Rosehip Oil here. 
3. Revolution Organics Freedom Glow Beauty Box: Glow straight to the top of the Christmas card list with this gift. 
4. Franc Serum & Half-Price Exfoliator: Give the gift of good skin - I’ve raved above Franc Essential Serum here.
5. Neom Luxury Organics Utter Relaxation Collection: For mums and stress-heads (usually the same person). 
6. Kimia Exquisite Rejuvenating Facial System: I’ve been meaning to post a review of Kimia’s exceptional products for a while - the rejuvenating facial system is nothing short of miraculous. This is one to pop onto your wishlist (I like to leave subtle post-it notes around the house with my gift requests). 

Part II to follow shortly, so stay tuned!

The problem with having an unexpected free weeknight to myself is that I have found myself trawling through all my favourite online clean beauty sites, and have discovered about 2000 products that I would quite like to purchase. So, in order to make this a somewhat productive exercise, here is the shortlist of products that I am coveting this month - if anyone has used any of these, I would love to hear your feedback!

1. Konjac Sponge with Bamboo Charcoal: Although this looks like something you might usually think to pick up with a pooper scooper, I’m intrigued by this reusable sponges claims to fight acne-causing bacteria and eliminating blackheads. And for only £5.75 it’s definitely the cheapest item on my wishlist!
2. Narcissist Stick Foundation & Concealer: I am on the hunt for a new foundation. I have to be perfectly honest and admit that I still very regularly rely on my old ‘dirty’ foundations as I just haven’t yet found a decent clean alternative. I’ve never used a stick foundation but have seen great reviews of this one by Narcissist, and as a neat little foundation & concealer in one it’s perfect for keeping in my handbag. 
3. Intelligent Nutrients Organic Volumizing Spray: I’m all about pumping up the volume. Of my hair. I’m a complete nana when it comes to loud music…
4. Ila Fragrant Candle - Jasmine Flowers: I am totally in love with the scent of jasmine, it just smells so fresh, beautiful and warm - always reminds me of Spring! I love the punchy colour of this candle too, I think it would create a gorgeous golden glow when lit.
