Which sets have you got your smoky eye on? Leave us a comment!

  • Lots of great gift ideas if you are treating yourself to some new make up. If I was buying for someone else I would prefer to give them a gift card so they can choose their own make up.


  • These makeup gift sets are super cute! They would be great gifts for Christmas. Perfect timing! I have my smoky eye on the Dior Rouge Couture makeup set. The lip colours are my colours. And the gold pouch is so elegant and pretty. Every girls need a Dior item in their handbag. Priceless!


  • Some of these will make beautiful Christmas gifts fro some lucky girl. I especially love the Dior Rouge Couture Makeup Set and would be very happy if I found that under the Xmas tree. The Make Up For Ever Artist Color Pencil Stellar Set, is something I would be interested in as I seem to have trouble lately buying pencil type liners (that sharpen) . They all seem to be liquid ones. Obviously shopping in the wrong place.


  • These are some beautiful sets – perfect for Christmas gifts! I love the quality that you can see here and it is nice that they come in matching sets, so it is less fuss as it says. I am also loving the cute storage bag with some of them and I love the nice brown shade MAC has!


  • I love when Christmas comes around as you get to see more and more holiday and gift packs come out from all sorts of beauty brands! Often a chance to try their most popular products or mini sized products without the commitment. It makes for a great gift or one you can make into little KK gifts too


  • Oh they all look so fabulous! I’m actually so excited for Christmas so I can get my hands on some of these amazing sets! I just threw out my eye shadows after realising how long I’d had them for lol so the eye shadow would be nice, the Fenty set looks like it has my name on it too


  • I love the look of the Tarte Palette but also think that the MAC lipsticks look like great value.
    The Fenty pack is enticing. I tried my first Fenty product a few weeks ago when I got one of the lipglosses and I must say its so lovely and smooth.


  • Oh. My. Goodness. That Fenty kit is not only stunning but an excellent price! I have both the Diamond Bomb All-Over Veil and the Gloss Bomb Stix in ‘Is It Fu$$y’ and they are just stunning. The shine I get from the diamond bomb is unmatched to any highlighter I’ve had. And the gloss is gorgeous. Perfectly pigmented and doesn’t easily shift. Thank you for showing me this, it’s a done deal.
