So 2015 is coming to a close, so it's time to set some goals!

I had a look back at my 'New Years Thoughts' post from this time last year & I have to say I've achieve more in 2015 than I actually thought I had.

So much of my life has changed over the past year & it has to be the most challenging year I think I've ever faced for so many reasons.

So onto my goals:

So those are just a few things I'd like to focus on for 2016!

Let me know in the comments below what some of your goals are.

Have a happy new years guys!

Stay safe & have fun!

As it's now the holidays, for some of us that means a lot of time with the tv/ Netflix!

The inside packaging is just as amazing, with these present tag designed boxes.

Each containing a lovely bath, body or beauty based item.

I'll admit like most calendars there are the odd products that are 'filler' gifts, however there were only 2 within this calendar. Which is a lot better than some of the previous calendars I've had!

Check out the video below for my full unboxing & see what goodies are inside!

Let's get festive!

Here is my favourite Christmassy eye look for this year.

This is glam enough for any Christmas party or night out but equally as appropriate for Christmas dinner (maybe drop the eyeliner & go for a neutral lip).

My inspiration for this look what a gold/ green shade in my MAC pre-made warm tones eyeshadow palette. The shade is called Unwind. I thought combined with a red lip it would make for a very festive make up look!

When it comes to beauty it's darker nudes or deep berry lips.

For my skin anything that is super moisturising & hand creams.

Benefit are always on it at this time of year with their gift sets & this year I was lucky enough to get one for my birthday!

The one I got was 'Real Cheeky Party', which is very similar to one they released last year which I missed out on.

This kit comes with 4 blushes, a bronzer, a cream highlighter, a gel eyeliner & a mascara.

The sizes of these products, especially the powders, are amazing value for money. This set is great if you're interested in Benefits top products but don't fancy using all of your money on them!

Some of these products I already own & love, which is always a nice place to start.

I've since tried out all of the other products & like them all. The product I'm less keen on is the Watts Up highlighter, as I find it a little gold for my skin tone sometimes.

Overall I think this kit is a great gift to anyone who's into make up. I also think it's probably one of the best value for money kits from their collection this year.

Men this one is for you!

Us women know you sometimes struggle to buy for us, we can be very fussy creatures (sorry).

Jewellery is always a good choice, but half the problem is there is so much choice. These are new to Thomas Sabo this Christmas! A bracelet that you can put your own personal message on.

Perfect for a girl that loves make up! Benefit always do really great & cute gift sets at this time of year. They are a great way for a girl to try new products. Be quick though, they sell out fast! Available from anywhere that stocks Benefit for £29.50.

Soap & Glory Scents of Occasion
Fragrance is always a nice treat, however if you aren't too sure what type a girl likes, go for a set like this that has a variety of different ones. Soap & Glory scents are really nice & comfortable to wear. This set is available from Boots for only £12.00.

Yankee Candle in Black Cherry
Women love candles, it's just part of life! Yankee Candles are great quality & smell amazing. There is a scent for everyone, trust me. I love this Black Cherry one for this wintery time of year. Yankee Candles are available at a variety of places, such as card shops or you can go direct to Yankee's website. The medium size jar candles retail for £18.99.

Real Techniques Bold Metals Essentials set.
A girl can never have too many make up brushes & this set is just gorgeous! Real techniques make amazing quality brushes & this bold metals collection is amazing to look at too.

This list is going to have something for every guy in it.

Guys can sometimes be really hard to buy for, so hopefully these items give you some ideas on what to get them for Christmas.

A holdall is a great option for any guy, as they're very versatile bags. They can be used for work, travel, the gym anything really! This leather one is from River Island & costs £45.00.

Men's grooming is always a good way to go. This Babyliss one is great value for money! Available from Very for £20.00.

Polo Ralph Lauren Leather Wallet

Wallets are another great gift choice & if you're not sure what type they like go with something simple & classic like this one. Wallets also come at a huge variety of prices, so there's something to suit everyone budget. This one is available from ASOS for £59.00.

Michael Kors MK8372 Watch

A lot of men love watches & collect them, so they are another great option. If you're thinking of a high priced item I'd definitely go with a watch! I've picked a Michael Kors watch as they aren't too ridiculous on the price front, but still very nice watches! If you're up for spending some big bucks you could go with Omega or TAG Heuer. This Michael Kors watch is available from Selfridges for £229

An Experience Day

Always a winner, when it comes to gifts! Experience days are great, as they have something for everyone, whether they like cars or tasting wine! These do vary in price & you can buy they from various places & even get deals online from places such as Groupon!
