Perfect stocking fillers

One of my favourite things to buy at Christmas is stocking fillers. There’s something fun about buying a lot of little presents for someone. I have been collecting stocking fillers for friends and family for the last couple of months and have managed to get some great presents. 

One of my favourite cosmetics brands is MAC cosmetics. I bought my first MAC lipstick in 2012 and since then I have built up quite a collection. It’s always my go to brand when I know someone wants new makeup. They have a lot of great products for less than £20 and each one is such great quality.  My favourites are the lipsticks – especially the reds and nudes. I’ve bought so many over the years and I love giving them as gifts. One of my other favourite products from MAC is the Fix+ setting spray. This is also something I bought for the first time in 2012. It has such a great scent, it’s almost nostalgic and it works well to set makeup and make it last all day. 

The Rimmel Lasting Finish lipliners are a new favourite of mine. I’ve seen them going viral on TikTok so I had to pick a couple up to try for myself. At less than £5, they’re not only a bargain but they’re such great quality. My current favourites are Cappuccino and 90s Nude – both are great nudey brown shades. They apply really well and they last all day. I think that these would make great stocking fillers. 

Another great stocking filler is makeup sponges. I always love a new blending sponge, so it’s something that I always get for my friends. I’ve been a fan of the Essence Make Up and Baking sponge. When damp, it blends my makeup out beautifully. I like to use it for concealer, foundation and cream contour. It can also be used dry for baking – where you apply powder to the areas you want to set.
