Elizabeth Arden - Untold (Eau De Parfum)
This is a luxurious and modern, floral and sensual fragrance. Something new to the Elizabeth Arden line and suitable for any woman who would love a slightly woody, musky, warm and fruity fragrance . You can mostly smell the patchouli as the base note from this and its really lovely and different. People will compliment you when you wear this fragrance!

Opi Nail Lacquer 10 Piece set, Take Ten Mini Kit (Limited Edition)
I love OPI nail polishes! They are long lasting and easy to use. They are very similar to the result you get from a 2-3 week shellac or gelish polish. The polish lasts about 1-2 weeks. I have searched high and low for these in the shops but I think most people buy them online. This set is perfect to take you through any look over the Xmas period.
