Marvelous Mall Makeup

I have a little tradition, all my own, that I enjoy indulging in every holiday season.  I let myself go ahead and buy some mall makeup.  Because during the holiday season, several of the major beauty vendors offer gift sets, at an exceptional price with purchase.  It's practically enough makeup to last you a whole year, with a nice makeup kit case to boot.
This year, Estee Lauder's holiday gift collection is called the Color Stylist. It's valued at over $340.00, but with any fragrance purchase (my personal favorite is their classic "Beautiful",) you can buy it for $57.50.  It includes 30 colors, makeup brushes, eyeliner, mascara, eye makeup remover, a matching red makeup tote and bag, three lipticks and two lip glosses.
If Estee Lauder isn't your favorite, try Lancome's holiday gift, the limited edition Beauty Box.  Valued at 300.00, this set, which comes with an adorable black tote, is available for 57.50 with any Lancome purchase.  This one comes with your choice of cool plum tones or warm bronze tones.  13 full size beauty essentials in a lovely train case.  My suggestion for your purchase would be their gift set of 6 "Dazzling" Juicy Tubes, brightly colored lipglosses that wear beautifully for day to day makeup.
These gifts are only available for a limited time during the holidays, so pick one up next time you hit the mall.
