HELENE RAVLICH: LOCAL BEAUTY
ghd
THE BEST OF HOLIDAY 2020 After a tough year we could all do with a little extra self-care this Christmas, and for many, beauty treats and wellness offerings are much appreciated gifts. I’ve rounded up some of my favourites for the loved ones in your life, benefitting from top to toe.
ghd Deluxe Gift Set
THE GIFT OF GREAT HAIR DAYS Every year come holiday season, ghd really hits one out of the park. Their Christmas collections are always beautifully presented and always unabashedly glamorous - which I love. This year’s collection is inspired by constellations, and comes in a riot of iridescent whites, and deep luxurious midnight blues. At the top of the pile is the incredible ghd Deluxe Gift Set, which comes with an RRP of $650, so definitely for those on Santa’s ‘good’ list! Featuring the iconic ghd platinum+ SMART styler and the new ghd helios professional hairdryer, both dusted with a luxurious white finish and satin gold accent details, they come ready boxed in a luxury vanity case that has to be seen to be believed. They are also offering their iconic styling tools in a variety of beautiful packaging options, such as the ghd platinum+ SMART styler presented in a luxury vanity case all its own.
M.A.C Frosted Fireworks Advent Calendar
FOR THE M.A.C OBSESSIVE
78 PONSONBY NEWS+ December 2020
M.A.C always creates beautiful Christmas gifting, and at all sorts of price points depending on your budget. Their 2020 Holiday collection is called Frosted Firework, and it looks as dazzling as it sounds. The line-up celebrates glimmer, shimmer, and shine, and was inspired by ‘the surprise, delight and ambient beauty of fireworks’. The 20-piece collection consists of frosted pink-packaged products for eyes, lips, and face, with five shades of eye-shadow, five lipsticks, five lip glosses, three dual-ended eyeliner pencils, and two shades of highlighter. And, of course, it wouldn’t be a holiday collection without a line-up of drool-worthy gift sets to go along with the individual offerings for loved ones or just yourself!
