What to buy in November

What to buy in November

Ahh November, the last month before the craziness that is Christmas. If you’re smart you’ll be using this breathing time to get on top of present shopping, but if you’re like me you’ll be savouring every last minute of self-indulgence before flicking the switch to ‘giving’ mode. 

Luckily November has plenty of products to suit all kinds. There’s pretty patterned nail appliques to put away for your girly girlfriends, fancy fragrances for a foolproof mother-in-law gift, and some of the best anti-ageing treatments to prepare you for the stress of Christmas cooking. But personally, I’ll be indulging in a brand new BB cream, easy self-tanner and textured nail polish, because really, my happiness is the best gift that I can give. Well, that’s the excuse I’m sticking with anyway.

Have you tried any of these products? Which ones are you most excited about?
