Gift Guide 2010: Gifts of Fragrance.

You cannot go wrong when it comes to giving a gift of fragrance. From luxurious collections to sample sets or a large bottle of her favorite, a fragrant gift is always welcome.  I added in a new favorite candle of mine this year, as I love to give (and receive!) candles. I also recommend looking for sets that might include a lotion or powder.

Here are my fragrant gift picks this year.

Holiday 2010: Gift Picks from Korres + a Special Offer.

One of my favorite online beauty sites to shop is Korres. Besides the obvious fact that they carry some great natural bath and beauty products, they always have some special offer going on. This year, they have a very special offer just for Beautiful Makeup Search readers - plus a great selection of gifts.

Here are my gift picks from Korres!

Lip Butter Glaze - $14.00

The famous Korres lip butter is now in a tube! The formula is more emollient with oils that creates a buttery glaze that glides on the lips. I love how my lips have a pretty shade of color while they are soft and moisturized. Lip Butter Glaze comes in five shades: Quince, Pomegranate, Wild Rose, Jasmine & Raspberry.

Tropical Fruit Showergel Duo - $8.00

This pair of shower gels are sure to delight your senses. With Guava, an invigorating blend of tropical fruits and Fig, an uplifting scent of the Mediterranean, you cannot go wrong. The shower gels are enriched with Active Aloe, Wheat Proteins, and potent Vitamin C, E and Zinc. Skin is left clean, refreshed and softly scented.

Milk Proteins Make-Up Removing & Cleansing Wipes - $12.00

I was first introduced to the Korres makeup remover wipes at Sephora earlier this year. On the suggestion of a Sephora artist, I was quickly smitten with the Pomegranate Wipes. I am even more in love with these, especially as they are more gentle and better for my dry skin. The Milk Proteins are actually made of amino acids that bind with water to lock hydration in. The Pro vitamin B that is included is gentle on my skin, especially the eye area and it even conditions my lashes - an extra added benefit. You get 25 wipes in the re-seal able pack. Any woman will be thrilled to try these.

So, here are all the details on our exclusive special offer. This offer is valid on korresusa.com from today until December 31, 2010 at 11:59 PM EST. With the Promotion Code: MAKEUPSEARCH, you will get 25% OFF + a FREE Mini Lipgloss with orders of $30 or more.
