I did some hardcore hinting over the past couple of months, and thankfully it paid off (excellent work, Long-Suffering Boyfriend) as I got some fabulous goodies for Christmas. I also managed to persuade my father to get me the Laura Mercier portfolio which is just so fantastic.
I’ll go into much more detail about each product as and when I use them, but for now, here’s some pics:

So as you can see, I was spoilt rotten this year! Expect swatches and reviews very soon. What did everyone else get for Christmas this year?
Not much on the beauty front – some lovely OPI nail varnish! – I have a thing about my toe nails – I think feet are ugly so always try to pretty mine up with coloured nails and designs. I also got some new perfume – Hugo Boss from my son.
I absolutely love the eyeshadow colours you got – Can’t wait to see how you blend these colours I really do think they are great.
Hope you had a great christmas
Tracey xoxo
you got spoilt with the make-up lol
Glad you had a lovely Christmas 🙂 If you want to nosey my Christmas gifts the post has just gone live
Happy Christmas

Ah, lucky girl! The NARS sets are to die for! I decided that this year I’ll be opening my gifts on new year’s eve, so they’re still under the tree, except for a Sleek blush which has been already opened and is on my cheeks right now!
Happy day!

Hi Tracey, I totally agree, I’m really not a feet fan so I try and make sure they’re always painted in a pretty colour. I love OPI! Which shades did you get?
The eyeshadow palette is AMAZING, it’s seriously like it was made for me as all the colours are perfect for my colouring; will update as I go along xx
@beauty diaries, I did get very spoilt! Thanks luvvy, hope you had a lovely Christmas too! Will head over to your blog shortly xx
Hi Ria, I’m blown away by your self control! I was proud of myself for managing to keep a couple of presents for the evening to open; normally they’re all opened within half an hour of being awake and last year they were opened at about 2am Christmas morning! Hope you get lots of lovely things xx
I just got the portfolio as its half price at SpaceNk :). Grabbed the last one off the shelf. Lol.
Both of the NARS blush look gorgeous, they make me want to go and buy one, although I have tons of makeup I haven’t even opened yet so can’t really justify!
@elisebutt65 FANTASTIC! That’s so jammy 🙂 really pleased you got one as it’s a really good palette xx
@Claire Trevor they really are so incredibly pretty, although I’m more taken with the lipglosses and varnishes! Haven’t had a chance to fully try out the blushes (all 3 of them!!) but will update when I have xx
