Sali Hughes' Expert Gift Guide

{ROSE DE MAI MASSAGE CANDLE}

- FOR COUPLES -

"A brilliant and original gift for couples, newlyweds... or yourself. Indulgent, decadent and a bit filthy. Perfect!"

{CHEEKIE CHEEK & LIP SHINE}

- FOR A PERFECT GLOW -

"Easy to wear, a cinch to apply and the secret to off-duty actresses' 'I'm a natural beauty and don't need make-up' look."

{SKIN NOURISHING MILK BATH}

- FOR MUM -

"Winter begins with a hot, deep Elemis milk bath. I've been using this for years to soften, moisturise and nourish my dry skin. It looks deceptively simple but truly, must be smelled to be believed."

{DIAMOND CLEAN SONICARE TOOTHBRUSH}

- FOR YOUR PARTNER -

"Sonic brushes are in another league to manual and electric versions. Teeth will look and feel cleaner than every before... and this one includes a very handy USB charger for travel."

{LUXURY GIFT BOX}

- FOR A PARTY ANIMAL -

"A 24-hour, two-step, vitamin-packed hangover treatment for times of painful overindulgence or general (non-alcohol induced) stress. The 'Asleep' step helps calm and soothe to optimise slumber while the 'Awake' shot helps propel you towards meaningful activity. Bacon sandwich and fat Coke optional."

{THE CELESTIAL POWDER}

- FOR A BEAUTY JUNKIE - 

"Quite simply on of the all-time greatest face powders, this peachy tone is flattering on every skin - from palest white to darkest black - and lends a wonderful glowing effect to the complexion. Can be dusted with a fat brush all over foundation to set, or stroked locally on cheek and forehead bones for depth and contour. A classic."

{GINSBERG IS GOD CANDLE}

- FOR A GIRL FRIEND -

"The coolest looking candle available, this has as much substance as style - throwing out the gorgeous, fresh scent of a summer greenhouse."

{SOOTHING SHAVE CREAM}

- FOR DAD - 

"Dads rarely treat themselves so make yours feel a million dollars with this superior cream shave. Particularly good on sensitive skins or coarse whiskers."

{BEST OF BEAUTY EDITORS' PICKS COLLECTION}

- FOR TEENS -

"Topshop is easily one of the best make up brands for teens and this is a really cleverly picked set. Containing seven items including the brilliant creme blush, eyelining pen and blood red nail polish, this is the perfect kit to set a teen up with great quality, fashionable basics."

{SINGLEPASS FLAT IRON STRAIGHTENERS}

- FOR YOUR SISTER -
