'Tis the season for giving – and it's also the best time of year to snap up value-added limited edition beauty kits, palettes and fragrance sets. I thought I'd start off this year's gift guide giveaways with a beauty bang! After seeing pretty much every holiday offering available on the market, this one's my very favourite: Benefit's I'm Glam...Therefore I Am Makeup Kit, $40.
This gift is for the girl's girl who loves to be playful with her makeup.
Benefit Cosmetics has been going strong in the beauty game for the past 30 years – they're best known for their puny packaging and their innovative products that offer quick fixes for every woman's beauty dilemma. For the past few years their holiday collections have gone gangbusters, in most cases selling out – fast! Which is another reason I wanted to make this the first gift idea in our guide, so you can get it before it sells out.
Breakdown of the contents:
- Girl Meets Pearl Deluxe Mini Liquid Pearl for face
- Glamming Face Powder with powder brush
- Ultra Shines Lip Shine in Life on the A List (bubblegum pink)
- A Little Bit BADgal Lash Mascara
- Eyeshadow Palette
- Double-ended sponge applicator
Bonus: The kit comes with instructions on how to apply the products like a pro, making it a great gift idea for a makeup beginner.
Enter to win this Benefit palette by leaving a comment letting us know what your favourite colour of eye shadow is and why. One week from today we'll draw a winner at random! Good luck, friends.
Benefit's I'm Glam...Therefore I Am Makeup Kit, $40, available at Sephora.
