Third day of competition with a brand of make up I discovered recently and is now part of my routine complexion. Indeed, Laura Mercier products have been a real surprise for me, I have also adopted many of their products and it is not ready to stop. Today I propose only to win the illuminator face of the Moonlight Collection. A product stunning both in its packaging, its subtle texture that makes all the difference when applied to the face (for once, I really like ^ ^). Go to the site Laura Mercier and tell me what are the two products (skin, eyes or body) you would choose to test if you had the opportunity?. – 1, if you relay the competition on Hellocoton, twitter or facebook (buttons "sharing" are at the top next to the title, send me the link via comment). The competition is open to mainland France but for those who live abroad, if you have friends or family who can receive your prize here, no soucy to participate. A skin girls head brings us almost always. when aging is not acne, spots or when stress Christmas is just around the corner and with it the gifts. We all want to meet them, but making them is another matter altogether. Not only for the amount of money spent (I, for example, takes almost two months to recover from the shock) but the classic "what do you give?". Surely at some point in your life you have asked this question. When a gift we put all our hope in him, and if he does not like is like a bucket of cold water. As much as we want to hide, our gestures betray us. See someone makes a face of "what are you giving away?" Lets you "plop" for the rest of the day. There are a thousand and one gift for one person, but the big problem is getting it right. The best way to find the perfect gift is to make a WISH LIST. Everybody is slipping a "this love", "when I have money I'd buy," "I need …" "I have left this small or too old", etc.. Only we must be vigilant as to say "want" or "LIKE" point in the wish list. This may be a loose paper, a notepad, a calendar, a Word on your computer or as in my case, the mobile notebook. Thus, when you have to make a gift to that person only will have to look at the list and decide which best fits the time of year and your budget. It's very, very practical. My partner has been doing that des went out and never failed. If you have not been careful not worry because even have time to fix it. A very good tactic is to take the person to look at shops. No need to buy anything, just watch, and every time that person say "how beautiful" to something made a mental note, because it may be a possible gift. Another option is to make an inspection of your room or closet. These are a great source of information. Surely, you notice a little rummaging missing something or you find something that should be changed or replaced (for old, broken or just ugly). If you do not live with that person and therefore can not examine their belongings, an alternative is to ask someone who does if you know what you want or need for Christmas. This year I have had to resort to my mother to know that buy my brother (and is that the birthdays and graduations, their wish list was empty). If all this still does not know what to get you can always go directly to the person and bluntly ask, "Do what you want for Christmas?". I hate to get to that end (I find it cold and impersonal), so for you this will not happen to you, we about to present a series of often very successful (and, most of them are adaptable to suit all budgets ). The budget is in many cases (especially now with the crisis) is a serious matter as it is often very limited. Gift giving just the people must, ask a maximum of money to spend, gift sets or wait for the sales to buy more and more are some of the keys to the January cost more bearable. Clock. It is the ideal gift for a man. The watches are for men as for women's shoes, an object of desire. Although it seems an expensive gift, you can find clocks with plastic or rubber strap for less than 100 euros. If you want steel or leather strap, you will discover treasures for between 100 and 200 euros. Of course, if you have no budget constraints on a watch you can end up spending a fortune.. Tie. This is the classic among classics. Surely children under 25 years do not make them very funny but it is a sure hit for kids who are usually dressed in suits, parents and grandparents. I love giving away ties, on the soft tissues (the best are those of silk) and vibrant colors. Although you can find at a good price (Asos they exist for only 8.07 euros) in this type of gift is best to stretch a little and give a quality tie that you can use for years. Another option is to give a bow original (a mustde this season). Scarf, scarf or handkerchief. Protect winter and give your look an added sophistication with a scarf, a scarf or handkerchief. See what colors typically used to combine it with as many clothes. Portfolio. Is an accessory that all men use and that eventually wears out. I love them, but mind you how is yours, because you will have to look for one with the same characteristics (purse, leather, velcro closure with plastic to put photos, with plenty of room for cards …) as they are accustomed to them and unwilling to change. In any menswear store you will find them. Bag man. It is increasingly common to see men with bag and is that once you try it, they can not live without it. Continue giving us their portfolios so that we keep in our purses, pear less like themselves if they have nowhere to put your things. If this is your first bag, shoulder strap that is not too big. They are most common to see. Convinces If you do not, a variant may be the briefcase or briefcase. For me, one of the best bags houses Adolfo Dominguez man is where you can find wonderful and very good price (from 59 euros). Zara also find them very beautiful. Belt. If you are a man regaláis belt will thank you. Whether you have a very casual and formal style, is a gift you will like it because it is very convenient (when used daily, quickly spoil). In man there is any store, but I advise you dig a look at Pedro del Hierro (Cortefiel) and El Corte Ingles. Twins. Another gift that is worth investing a little money are twins. A jewel for men. They put them rarely, but when they do, dazzle. In the big names in clothing always have, but in some low cost stores such as Massimo Duttitambién.. T-shirt or shirt. When you do not know what to give a shirt or a shirt (depending on your tastes) will bring you more of a hurry. For very crowded with the cabinet, always find a place to put it. There are endless possibilities. Joya. Gifts is one of the star. Few things make us more excited to receive a gem. Earrings, bracelets, necklaces, brooch or ring. Tiffany's and Co., Tous, A 50, Links of London, Swarovski or Pandora are some of the houses to visit when looking for a gem at a price more or less affordable. The latter is a very good choice, since giving away the bracelet charms have to buy, giving them the solution for many anniversaries thereafter. There are many jewelry stores where I am or look like Claire's or shops with a large collection of jewelry like White or Stradivarius. A watch is not a bad option. Complement. It is a universal truth that we women love fashion accessories. Bags, hats, scarves, cravats, gloves, shoes, hats, belts, wallets or purses … we never tire of them. It is very easy to hit with a plug, you should only set the colors you normally use (so that you can take advantage) and whether they are shoes, carving bears watching. In any supplements you will find clothes shop (in Massimo Dutti is wonderful), but if disponéis long time or you will overwhelm the idea of ​​pilgrimage to all the shops, I advise you to go directly to stores. Uterqüe, Accessorize or Bimba and Lolason my favorites. Bathroom. After a tiring day, a good bubble bath can be for any woman nirvana. Giving away a box with products such as body moisturizer, hand cream, foot cream, bath oil, soap, body butter, scrub, foam or bubble is an excellent idea. Not only because it is a love gift to women (the coffers are always so beautifully decorated …), but also for anyone who gives it is very comfortable and you can give more or less product depending on your budget and customizing best to it's like the woman in question. I advise the coffers of L'Occitane en Provence (buenísimos), Lush (100% artisan), Sephora (by their colors and scents and bathtub-shaped box) and Yves Roche (for its line of Argan). You can also browse in Rituals and The Body Shop. Cosmetics. It is a dangerous gift because we are very cosmetics items and not all of us our worth. This is a great gift if you know exactly which product you want. The vast majority of women have a list of cosmetic products that we want, but always for some reason (usually lack of funds) does not buy, but save for if we ever win the lottery or get saved (almost more likely that the first than the latter). Giving the desired product immediately and you will become the boyfriend, friend, brother, … perfect. I myself I have a long list headed by Mama Mio several creams, exfoliating rice and anti-age mask of dermalogica moisturiser moisturizer Kiehl's, the Rodial balm and anti-stress oil Alqvimia. . Makeup. Eye shadows. With the makeup are exactly the same problem with cosmetics, with one exception: eye shadows. Giving a set with several different eye shadows is a great gift if you buy quality shadows. The best eyeshadow brand is MAC, Nars, Benefit, Lancôme and Dior. The good thing about Mac is selling 4-color palette (5'50 euros) or 15 (15.50 euros) you can fill your home with spare parts (13 euros each). Decoration. One of the things that amuse us women to decorate our home. Although it seems that is perfect and no longer fit anything else, we like to be changing. A winner always picture frame, vase design, a nice set of cups, a nice tray, aromatic candles, exquisite cushions, a decorated box or a good insurance linens are like gifts. It is also a gift she will have before and every time you see, will remind you. There are many decorating shops, but my favorites are Zara Home, Habitat, Maison du Monde or texture. Table. He might have added this section in decoration, but I wanted to explain that there have to be a store-bought box. There are shops with wonderful pictures and Maison du Monde or Ikea, however you may not find in them what we were looking for. In this case, go to a digital imaging studio and ask. In many reprographics already have this service with a database to search the desired image. But, you also have the option of taking the picture yourself or photographs. They can help you choose the base (for me the better the fabric), measures and if you want to put in the same picture multiple photos will make the collage. A table with all your cousins ​​can be a perfect gift for your grandparents. Bouquet of flowers. And why not give flowers? No woman in the world would say no to a good bouquet of red roses. It is a gift very, very romantic. But not only is a nice gift for girlfriends or wives. Friends and mothers will be happy to receive a bouquet of flowers. And if you wish that your gift lasts longer than a week, compradle a plant. If you live in Barcelona or Madrid I recommend you go buy roses Au nom de la rose, where they have an amazing variety of roses. Ropa. Another great gift for women. Any new piece will be welcome in our closet. If you know the person well, you must not have any problem finding something that suits your style. But just in case, always ask the ticket gift. Perfume. A classic for him and her. It is true that a perfume is very personal, but there are perfumes that like virtually everyone. To assure you, get samples to try at home the day before or take it for the perfumery and Encourage them to smell. Some of the perfumes that they are more like: Le Male by Jean Paul Gaultier, Armani Aqua di Gio, The One by Dolce
