Today I thought I'd share with you a few things that have been catching my eye lately. If you're looking for ideas for your own wish list or to give to one of the many deserving women in your life, I may have just the item for you. So, here we go...
I have never been a bath person. At least not as long as I can remember. But something about being the mom of a now toddler suddenly has me craving the peace and quite and relaxation of a nice bath for the first time in my life. As such, a few lush goodies would be a great bet for any other ragged moms like myself, or those bath lovers in your life. I particularly like these: bath melt, bubble bar, and bath bomb because you'd be able to break them in half for two lovely relaxation sessions. They can get a bit pricey, so might as well make the most of each one!
Being the mom of toddler has not only had me craving the peace of a bath from time to time, but it also has me paying a little more attention to my skin. She's giving me the wrinkles guys! So, skin care is becoming more of a concern. Like baths, I've never really been a skin care person :/ I just don't know much about it. But, I did get the sample pack of the 3 Little Wonders once and loved it. But again, it's pricey, so I never went back for the full size. What better time than Christmas to really treat someone though? Bonus right now, there's a cleanser included for the same price! Yeeee-ah!
Now, a two-fer. For the skin conscious bath lover, how about the Book of Masks? Hop in a nice lush-ous (like that?) bath and slather on a lovely mask. Check and check. (Sidenote, I went in Sephora for a sec over the weekend and the ladies there had nothing but good things to say about these masks. Has anyone tried them?)
Urban Decay's Naked3 seems to be perfect for those green-eyed ladies with some nice rosey and purple hues. I've never used anything but drugstore eye shadows personally, but from what I understand, there is a difference. Also, check out Naked and Naked2 for other color combos.
Now for the shoe lovers in your life, here are three options that I love and are very on trend right now. A beautiful bootie, duck boots (Oh no! They're off the website {Old Navy}, dang black friday rush :( Hopefully they'll come back in stock before the holidays, here's a super cute, though more expensive version. I'm dying to get my hands on this toddler version for Adelaide which are currently sold out as well, grrr...) and lace-up flats.
Finally, a nice new bag is always a good bet. If she's a new mom in need of a diaper bag, I would strongly suggest going with a backpack style. This one is definitely on the pricey side (but so cute and looks super functional), so it would probably be worth a little shopping around for a cheaper version. Let's use this one as eye candy and inspiration, because is any diaper bag really worth almost 200 bucks? I'm not 100% convinced. For the photography hobbyist, here is a super affordable and functional camera bag. And why not throw in a pretty purse? I love the bows, but that one will probably need to be considered on a case by case basis :)
What's on your wish list this year??
