Zoella Guinea Pig makeup bag/pencil case £8 - http://www.feelunique.com/p/Zoella-Beauty-Guinea-Pig-Beauty-Bag

This first gift I think would be perfect for any teen beauty enthusiast. I actually brought this one for a friend but it could also make a great stocking filler. If you wanted to spend a little bit extra on the present I think it would be cute to fill it with your friends favourite beauty products or chocolate. 

Simple Cosmetics Bag Collection £7 now £5.50 - http://www.superdrug.com/Simple/Simple-Soft-%26-Simple-Cosmetics-Bag-Collection/p/287204#.VGpIgTSsW5U

The makeup bag contains a pack of the Simple kind to skin makeup wipes and a Simple kind to skin moisturiser. Again I purchased this for a friend at school but this would make a nice gift for a family member as well. I probably wouldn't give this as a stocking filler but as an affordable main gift. It is actually on offer in Superdrug at the moment so get it quick!

Lush butterbear bath bomb £1.95 - https://www.lush.co.uk/products/bath-bombs/butterbear

For those people who love to relax and spend their winter nights in a warm bubbly bath then I think a Lush bath bomb would make a lovely present. You could choose out their favourite products and make a thoughtful yet inexpensive gift. I know Lush isn't for everyone but a present like this would show how much time and thought you have put into making it special.

This next present I think would be nice for an older woman although I would love to receive this too *hint hint*. This perfume smells exactly like Coco Chanel and is under £10! I think this particular perfume was featured on 'The One Show' as being similar to the expensive Chanel version. I couldn't find this online but I believe it is around £5 from the Lidl supermarket.

I realised half way through writing this that practically all of the gifts featured were for people who loved beauty although of course not everyone does. So I thought I would add these in as an extra for those people who are really hard to buy for. I would be lying if I said I was creative enough to make these myself but obviously you can tailor them to suit the person you are buying for. These make a great, thoughtful present that anyone would be happy to receive and would cost you little to make. I found these ideas from Pinterest and if you want any more creative home made Christmas gift ideas then Pinterest is a brilliant way to do that! 

I hope you liked my take on the Christmas gift guide. Tell me your present ideas and tweet me if your as excited for Christmas as I am! Also, just a quick note to say that my best friend recently started writing her own blog so please go and check her out - http://alittlebitofanniec.blogspot.co.uk/
