Every woman likes to feel pretty and pampered, especially around Christmas time. Sure, the glow of warm hearths and family can make a woman feel beautiful but there’s nothing to ruin good looks like rain, snow and blustery winds, which is why Christmas is a perfect time to give the women you care about beauty gift sets.

Beauty gift sets are great for Christmas because they are bundled packages of goodies and they aren’t something a woman would usually buy for herself. And we have searched all over the Internet for a wide range of thoughtful skin care, hair care and cosmetic gifts sets for all different age ranges. So whether you’re looking for a gift for your mother, wife, sister, aunt, daughter or friend there’s something in this list for you.

1. Purple ghd Christmas Gift Set (RRP £155) - This vibrantly coloured and on-trend ghd gift set includes a paisley-pattered ghd travel bag, ghd IV styler, hair dryer and sectioning clips. Any woman who likes to do her own hair will love this gift set which is perfect for primping for a night out or allowing your recipient to do her own touch ups between sessions at the stylist. And since it all comes in a neat little bag, it’s easy to take on holiday, to the gym or elsewhere to make sure she’s always looking polished.

2. Green People Pure Essentials (£19.99) - This organic skin care pack is the perfect starter kit for someone who’s never tried an organic skin care regimen but would like to see the results that everyone is talking about. The women in your life will look and feel their best after using the skin purifier, gentle cleanser and daily moisturiser that are included in a gift box ready to be given away on Christmas morning.

3. Molton Brown Delight (£60) - There’s something about smelling divine, especially at Christmas time, that really inspires confidence in a woman. Everyone deserves to have their own signature scent, and this gift set of Molton Brown’s most popular products for women will no doubt become your gift recipient’s favourite one. First is the heavenly gingerlilly shimmer fragrance, with hints of tropical blooms and spiced oils. Make sure the scent lingers longer by using the Heavenly Gingerlily Moisture Bath & Shower. Finally, seal in the luxurious smell and feel with Heavenly Gingerlily Body Cream.

4. Benefit Beauty Cravings (£41.50) - This beauty gift set is an easy Christmas gift, since it comes in a lovely container that can be used to wrap the gift in and will make a fitting beauty tools container for the rest of the year! Inside the decorated canister are a host of beauty goodies including: Some kind-a Gorgeous, a cream-to-powder foundation that is always the right shade; Dallas, a pressed powder designed to give your recipient’s face a sheer glow; and BAD gal lash, a mascara that gives you long, thick, super-dark lashes in just one coat. This is essential, full-size cosmetics, in one little canister. You can’t go wrong with this as a Christmas gift set.

5. L’Occitane Protecting Shea Butter Collection (£25) - Another of the obvious Christmas beauty gift sets, since the dryness of the winter season can leave a woman not looking her best. This gift set is collected in a French art gift box and includes hand cream, foot cream, milk soap, body lotion and lip balm, all made with softening shea to leave the whole body smooth and silky from head to toe.

6. Aromatherapy Associates Bath Time Indulgence (£26) - Your gift recipient will find something to love in the Bath Time Indulgence gift set from Aromatherapy Associates. She can light a Pure Indulgence Candle to create a relaxing mood and then try the Deep Relax Bath & Shower Oil to help her unwind after a long day at the office. If she has to make it to that parent-teacher conference later in the night, Revive Evening Bath & Shower Oil will make her more alert. Is she seeing someone special tonight? Try the Renew Rose Body Wash that will keep her feeling sexy all night long. Either way, she can finish up with Renew Rose Body Cream to feel soft and feminine. All this in a lovely gift box, a beauty gift set ready for Christmas morning.

7. Too Faced Decade of Glamour Kit (£23) - If the woman you’re shopping for likes exclusivness, the Too Face Decade of Glamour Beauty Wardrobe Makeup Collection is a limited edition 21-piece set of the most popular Too Faced products from the last 10 years. Six different eye shadows, beauty balm, bronzing powder, two glosses, two lipsticks, one mascara, one blusher duo, one eyeliner, one lip full-size Lip Injection and one bauble gloss all come in a fold-open wardrobe-type box. The Queen of Christmas beauty gift sets!

8. Philosophy miracle worker (£66) - A six-piece “miracle” product skin care gift set to keep her face smooth, clear and bright for Christmas. The beauty gift set includes a microdelivery exfoliating wash, purity made simple one-step facial cleanser, hope in a jar moisturiser, hope in a tube eye and lip firming cream and the microdelivery peel. Who doesn’t love Philosophy beauty gift sets?

9. Frederic Fekkai Coiff Celebration of Style Kit (£20) - This designer collection includes the Controle Ironless Straightening Balm to straighten her hair while she dries, Perfecteur Anti-Frizz Creme to control her hair in any weather condition and the Finishing Creme to shape hair without the stiffness of hairspray. The perfect Christmas gift set for straight hair fanatics!

10. Jessica Nails French Twist 5 Piece French Manicure Set (£21.75) - A French manicure is truly the definition of pampering, so allow the women in your life to be pampered more often. The Jessica Nail French Twist 5 Piece French Manicure Set has everything to recreate a trip to a professional nail technician in your own home. She’ll get the “Reward” base coat, “Brilliance” the high-gloss topcoat, and two different French Twist pink colours and 1 French Twist white.

There’s something for everyone, for every budget on this list of Christmas beauty gift sets, so why not make sure the women you care about feel beautiful this Christmas?

Each year, in one of the most hotly anticipated events in the beauty calendar, Cosmopolitan readers, together with the Cosmo beauty team, vote for the UK’s top beauty products. The categories cover everything from skin care to hair care, lip gloss to blusher and a whole lot more.

This year’s event took place at the ultra-glam Kensington Roof Gardens where Cosmo’s Editor Louise Court, and Beauty Director Ingeborg van Lotringen were joined by celebrity judges Strictly Come Dancing winner Alesha Dixon, TV presenter Emma Griffiths, esteemed makeup artist Ruby Hammer and hairdresser Andrew Barton from 10 Year’s Younger.

More votes than ever were cast by readers in the Readers’ Kiss of Approval categories, and the Cosmo beauty team also chose the winners of two new awards: The Cosmo Classic Award won by YSL Touch Éclat and the Beauty Breakthrough Award won by L’Oréal Paris Derma Genesis Cellular-Youth Nurturing Skincare SPF 15 Day Cream.

I guess you’d like to know who the winners are then? We thought you might! If you haven’t had a chance to pick up October’s edition of Cosmopolitan, we’ve got them all for you here. But we haven’t stopped there, oh no. Being the kind and perhaps slightly beauty-obsessed people we are here at Top Beauty, we’ve also searched the internet for the best online prices from reputable websites for each of the products - so you can shop away ’till your little heart’s content (or at least until you’ve reached your credit card limit)!

Anyway, with out further ado, here are the UK’s top beauty products of 2008, drumroll please…

Sometimes when you hit the stores looking for that perfect gift for your trendy friend who has it all (and is incredibly difficult to please), you stumble on something so unbelievably perfect that you just have to buy one for yourself, too. This season that item is the limited edition purple ghd Christmas Gift Set.

You’ve seen gift sets before – you’ve even seen them from ghd – but the purple ghd Christmas Gift Set is a step far and beyond anything released to date. No space is wasted on unwanted filler items or tote bags that will be left at the bottom of a drawer. Every piece in the limited edition purple ghd Christmas Gift Set is a much needed tool in your everyday hair-styling routine.

You know, that hair-styling routine you have to go through every single day, whether you are home or not. That hair-styling routine which requires bulky tools with long, tangled-up cords that take up way too much space in your suitcase.

You want to be able to pick up and go on a moment’s notice. You want to live a spontaneous life. You want to be able to travel light – and in style. You want a purple ghd Christmas Gift Set! This ghd gift set will transport your essential hair-care tools conveniently and with attitude.

Included in the purple ghd Christmas Gift Set is a purple ghd IV Styler, a 2000W purple ghd travel hair dryer, and purple ghd sectioning clips for styling.

What sets the purple ghds apart from all the other styling tools available is the eye-catching high gloss purple finish – a finish that oozes attitude. Funky paisley pattern designs adorn the ghds and the matching ghd travel bag.

The travel bag in the purple ghd Christmas Gift Set is so stylish, in fact, you may rethink buying one for your friend – you’ll want to be the only one carrying it! The purple ghd hair dryer and purple ghds slip into a purple roll bag, which inserts easily into the fashionable travel bag that will make you stand out in a crowd.

As if that weren’t enough, the purple ghd Christmas Gift Set also includes an instructional DVD. If you are aching for a look that is a little different (without going so far as a new cut), this DVD will demonstrate the latest techniques for making you look like you just stepped off the catwalk.

Of course, the purple ghd Christmas Gift Set is a limited edition item, so you better rush out and snag one as soon as they become available – before they disappear. The purple ghd Christmas Gift Set has an RRP of £155, but to make sure you get the best price available, check out the purple ghd price comparison at compareghd.com for the cheapest purple ghd prices.

You can buy your purple ghd Christmas Gift Set from October 21st.

TIGI Hair Care Products & Stockists

It is worth some thought, worth some money, and worth taking a few minutes to think about hair care. There’s so much you can do with your hair. Keep it, lose it, cut it, trim it, colour it, curl it, straighten it, bend it, wet it, plaster it, smooth it, scrunch it, put it up, put it down, stick it up, grow it here but trim it there, scent it, mask it, cover it, spray it, dry it, perm it, comb it, brush it, finger it, or just leave it! When you consider the importance of hair care, and the plethora of options, you’re going to need some advice and some guidance.

Right now in the UK, there is no shortage of people, companies, salons, and boutiques clamouring for your money and offering hair care services. You can find a hairdresser worthy of a celebrity, or…otherwise. The trend in hair right now is not the slicked-back smooth look. That was yesterday. Now, the look for men is the tousled look, the kind of feel that suggests ruggedness and preparedness, but with a heavy dose of the suave. This is accomplished by selecting only the best hair care products from top-of-the-line manufacturers. Women’s styles vary, as usual, but sleek, smooth, glossy, and healthy hair is always in fashion. Eye-catching colours and funky styles are always popular too.

For those wanting only the best in hair care products, TIGI is the name consistently at the top. Since the two brothers went into business over fifty years ago, TIGI has been growing, gaining popularity, and expanding into the worldwide leader in hairdressing. The name TIGI, from the names of the two founders, Tony and Guy, now oversees 400 salons in the UK. TIGI publishes a magazine, displaying fashion tips and advice. TIGI even have their own TV show. And now, TIGI has salons in dozens of countries, and the hair care products from TIGI are universal. TIGI has distinguished itself as the best in its class. TIGI is the one name that is basically synonymous with hip and funky fashion.

TIGI Bed Head is one of the most popular lines of products from TIGI. With shampoo, conditioners, gel, wax, mousse, and everything in-between, this line of funky hair care products is a smashing success. If you haven’t checked out TIGI Bed Head Manipulator - a bestselling coconut-scented cream that allows you to style your hair with texture and body, then you’re missing out!

TIGI Catwalk is another name that is synonymous with hip and funky hair care. The trendy Catwalk range specialises in presenting model-quality hair care products. They always offer products that can deliver to you that straight-off-the-catwalk style, just as their name suggests. Always hip, the product range features a wide variety of humectants, enhancers, and supplements to keep your hair in perfect condition. One such product is the popular TIGI Oatmeal and Honey Treatment Shampoo which keeps hair satiny fresh and clean and smells divine!

TIGI Hardcore offers the hardware to get the TIGI look. While hair care products are important, and TIGI offers the best, TIGI also offers the finest tools to accomplish anything you want to with your hair. Combs, brushes, sectioning clips, hair dryers, hair straighteners - this line of equipment is ideal for combining ease of use with excellence in quality. In fact, all TIGI products are designed with the professional hair stylist in mind.

TIGI S-Factor is a premium range of hair care products specifically designed to create straight, smooth hair that is sleek and shiny. TIGI S-Factor products are guaranteed to eliminate frizz and add the gloss back to tired locks – perfect for a night on the town!

TIGI’s latest range, B for Men, offers the same restorative healthy hair care that the Hardcore line does. B for Men offers to men the kind of care that their hair needs, while presenting style and fashion at the same time. Men want something that can cut down on flakiness, hold their hair in place, and still smell half decent. The B for Men Pure Texture Molding Paste does just that. This line of products is one line that is not going out of style anytime soon. It can be described as pure success.

TIGI is one the most popular salon brands in the UK, and it’s easy to see why. TIGI hair care products are hip and trendy, and perhaps more importantly, they are functional and affordable. Keep up the good work TIGI!

Introducing Urban Decay Cosmetics

It’s Friday night and you pull on your party dress with your stiletto heels and prepare your cosmetics. You lay out your eyeshadow, eye pencils, and lipsticks. You blink in disbelief. Could it be true, your only options are pink and a different shade of pink? You throw your purple and silver dress across the room in frustration, until you remember; Urban Decay Cosmetics.

You reach into your bag and pull out the Urban Decay Book of Shadows and Big Fatty Lip Plumper that you received from you best friend earlier in the evening. Although you have seen your friend’s addiction growing stronger by the night you decided to give Urban Decay a try. You open the case and begin to apply the shimmering colours. You look in the mirror amazed at the no longer ordinary face staring back at you. You smile, noticing the Lip Plumper actually worked.

Again, Urban Decay has rescued another night out on the urban landscape. With trend-setting alternative colours Urban Decay Cosmetics covers you head to toe with metallic eyeshadows, lip stains and plumpers, concealer, bronzers, and even flavoured body powders. These are not your ordinary cosmetic products but products that have come from the brilliant minds of the creative team who are Urban Decay.

Once you try Urban Decay Cosmetics you will never turn back. Your addiction begins as the metallic colours slide over your skin. Do not fear, your craving for more will be satisfied. Feed your addiction with the Urban Decay Ammo Shadow Box with 10 of the best-selling shadows.

Since 1996 Urban Decay Cosmetics has brought to you trend-setting colours in shades with names like Baked, Bourbon, Deviant and Gunmetal or the names inspired by Urban America, Roach, Smog, Rust, Oil Slick and Acid Rain.

Founder Sandy Lerner and Co-founders David Soward and Wende Zomnir knew too well the anguish of the alternative cosmetics shopper in a traditional industry. Inspired by Sandy Lerner’s longing for shades of purple and green, the dynamic trio took action, unleashing the line of alternative colours.

Although they are a cruelty-free company they are not a vegan company. But their love for vegans has inspired Urban Decay to create a list of vegan products.

Wende Zomnir, Executive Creative Director, unleashes her creative powers keeping Urban Decay one of the hippest, key players in the cosmetics industry. Her passion for the alternative and creative is what keeps the Urban Decay junkie satisfied and yet always craving more.

For over 30 years, L’Occitane En Provence beauty products have been a unique line based on the rich, fertile beauty of the South of France.

Close your eyes a moment visualise the following. Imagine you are relaxing in a field of lavender in a small village in the South of France. The sky above you is a radiant blue, sparsely decorated with wispy, white clouds. The air is fresh and abundant. You are surrounded by rolling hills, lush, emerald fields, and quaint, stone cottages. You feel as light and carefree as your whole body soaks in the gorgeous view. Naturally, you may find yourself unable to open your eyes; because, if you do, you may see only gloomy, grey skies, dingy, brick buildings and loud bustling crowds. All of that stress and pollution suffocates your pores and dulls your senses. Consequently, you may begin to fancy a trip back to that lovely village and the way the soft breeze and fragrant meadows made you feel, and more specifically, the way it made your skin feel. That wistful sentiment is precisely what moved Olivier Baussan to develop a line of hair and beauty products that inspired in its users serene visions of his home in L’Occitane En Provence.

L’Occitane sets its sights on the beauty and welfare of women, not only with their products but with their many other endeavours, as well. With the inception of the L’Occitane Foundation, the company has established itself as a leader in the effort to support the visually impaired. The products themselves consistently carry Braille labelling, and the foundation raises funds to give way to endeavours to improve the plight of the sensory impaired. The Foundation also supports the efforts of women in poorer countries with projects to improve their country’s economic conditions. Much like the unwavering dedication to substance in their products, the company itself is one of true substance.

Too Faced Makeup – A Girls Best Friend

It all began in 1998 with two boys and a vision. That vision was to take ordinary faces and make them extraordinary. Prestigious Hollywood Makeup Artist Jarrod Blandino and Fashion and business guru Jeremy Johnson dreamt of creating and marketing a line of cosmetics that was irreverent and inspiring, thus was born Too Faced, Inc. With a mantra of “Why be pretty, when you can be gorgeous?” this dynamic duo aspired to use their talents to take beauty one step further, to make it glamorous. With celebrity clients and loads of experience in movie makeup, Jerrod and Jeremy sparked a product that really lives up to its name.

They say “Dog is a Man’s best mate.” And that may be true; but, if so, what does that leave women? Without a doubt, a woman’s best friend is her makeup. Think on it a moment… a girl’s makeup kit is always there when she needs it, tucked loyally away in her trendy bag. It’s oh so flattering, and it doesn’t talk back or point out her faults. In fact, it exists to help cover her flaws. What more could you ask for in a bff? Even on those days when she is feeling downcast and looking sullen, a single session with her cosmetic chums and suddenly the world is a little brighter, much like her complexion.

Unfortunately, much like true friendship, makeup can also be fickle. A girl can depart her domicile at dawn, confident in her reflection, only to discover by afternoon tea, she has been deceived. Her mascara has run, her eye liner smudged and her lip gloss has jumped ship altogether. If she is going to rely on her friends, she must make certain they are indeed trustworthy. Not all cosmetics are deserving of such a role. Makeup made with tawdry ingredients can be unpredictable and unhealthy, leaving her looking more foolish than fabulous. A girl can really put her faith in Too Faced Cosmetics. She can glam it up and rock it out without worry. With sensational names and stylish pallets, Too Faced is the hottest name on all the “in” faces.

Notorious lip stick names include: “Sex Kitten,” “Marcia Marcia Marcia,” and “Cougar.” Enriched with shea butter, these lip colours smooth out fine lines and spoil your lips with moisture. “Magic Wand” liquid foundation comes in various shades and colours to match and enhance any complexion. Sassy shadows like “ooh & ahh” eyeshadow duo and “supernova” Galaxy Glam create glamorous gazes in sensational shades.

Too Faced Lip Injection, an instant lip-plumping treatmen,t has quickly become a cult, must-have beauty product and a favourite of makeup artists everywhere. Celebrity fans include Paris Hilton and Pamela Anderson.

Fabulous façades were never Blandino and Johnson’s only ambition. Too Faced is also the cosmetics company with a conscience. Not only are all products made animal friendly; but the company promotes some serious charitable causes as well. The Too Faced Love Lisa Melanoma Research Foundation Grant was established to assist the fight against skin cancer. Too Faced also plans to craft a new shadow called “Betsy Baby” after breast cancer survivor and Senior Vice President of Sephora, Betsy Olum. The company will generate a large donation to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation based on the sale of every “Betsy Baby” shadow.

Too Faced Cosmetics is a makeup line that truly lives up to its unique names. A line-up that can transform you from glum to glam is most certainly a gal’s best friend.

Philosophy, Inc.

The Philosophy brand started with BioMedic a medical beauty product promoted by plastic surgeons and dermatologists. The company was first created by Cristina Carlino and followed the concept of creating a new line of beauty products backed by science and research. From peels to creams and rejuvenation products, Philosophy, Inc was and remains about the whole body not just a part of it.

The UK Beauty Products Sector

While the economy is taking a downward spiral statistics show that the beauty and health market in the UK is beating the retail market where spending is concerned. It is called the Lipstick theory. The fact is when the economy slows lipstick sale increase. It’s a case of mind over matter. With things falling apart in life, it is simply easier to look good and hence, feel good. The small things on the beauty products counter seem more affordable compared to the more expensive retail products.

It is not only the women who are buying; men’s toiletries take a good ten percent of the sales. As consumers continue to buy the market becomes even competitive as brands try to make their products as appealing and affordable as possible.

Philosophy Product Range

The Philosophy concept is about bringing hope in a life which is fast becoming stressful and overloaded with failures. That is why products like “Hope in a Jar” bring about a new concept. Though simply a moisturiser, the name of the product and what it represents makes it more than a cream. It is endorsed by celebrities, dermatologists and plastic surgeons. It suggests that miracles can happen and starting with our own body is the first step to change.

Facial Cleansers have names like ‘Purity’ suggesting simplicity in ingredients and also suggesting that the product is the first step in making life simpler. The concept behind the name Philosophy is carried to all its beauty products. The names, the slogans and the advertisements used to promote the brand all cater to the lifestyle of a person rather than parts of the individual.

The Philosophy product line is simplistic in presentation. Its award winning products some of which are named above and others like “Amazing Grace” spray fragrance, and the MicroDelivery exfoliating wash all come in simple, yet beautiful, jars and bottles.

Philosophy gift sets make a really special gift for a friend or loved one, whether it’s for a birthday or Christmas present, or just to cheer someone up and let them know you care - a philosophy gift set is the perfect gift idea.

The impressing part about the Philosophy beauty products Range is that it started with the lifestyle of people in mind and continued that way rather than competing with the more established beauty brands like Revlon and Maybelline. It proved through its niche target marketing that it would not compromise its business mission through hard core competition and through that new concept, Philosophy makes a name for itself in a unique and unforgettable way.
