It's price is a little wishy washy for what you get but a lot of brands happen to increase the price just before Christmas.
Kat Von D Fragrance And Lip Colour Duo £24: Now these next two gifts should probably be in my Fragrance Gift Guide but I thought they sat better within the price brackets instead. Kat Von D released two fragrances this year, Sinner and Saint. And for Christmas she has released two duo sets which include a rollerball of fragrance and an Everlasting Liquid Lipstick. All that's left to decide is are you a sinner or a saint?
Rosie For Autograph Core Coffret £25: You may recognise this gift set from last years gift guides but I couldn't not feature it again last year.

Zoella Bits And Bobs Tin Set £12.50: I had a good hard look at the Zoella Christmas range this year and didn't see much that I thought I could feature in my guides. However this duo of gorgeous tins was something I thought a lot of people would like. I personally have asked for these to add to my collection of cake tins but you can store anything you want in these and they aren't badly priced either.

HO!HO!HO! Welcome back to my Christmas Gift Guide. Today we're upping the budget a bit and looking at all the gorgeous gifts you can get for under £25.

Kat Von D Limited Edition London Calling Set £19.50
Kat Von D has finally come to the UK. And what better way to test the popular brand than with a limited edition kit containing three of her bestselling products. For under £20 you get a mini Studded Kiss Lipstick in Lolita, a mini Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Double Dare and a mini waterproof Tattoo Liner in Trooper. This is definitely going to win over any beauty junkie this year and may have just made it on to my own Christmas list as well.

Stila Stay All Day Naturally Nude Lip Trio £18
Last year Stila released a stunning trio of their liquid lipsticks and that kit is fantastic. So following the success of last year, they've released another lip trio which is bound to fly off the shelves. This year's theme is nude lips and the trio contains three stunning wearable nude shades. You have Serenata and Perta which are both limited edition shades, exclusive to this set and Patina a bestselling shade that can be found in their permanent collection. These have some of the best liquid lipstick formula going so if higher end lipsticks are their thing, I'd suggest grabbing this set whilst you can.

Rosie Huntington Whiteley always releases such beautiful Christmas gifts and this year is no different. This trio contains a 30ml bottle of her Original EDP as well as a Votive Candle and Body Lotion in the same scent.

REN is a big skincare name but can come with a hefty price tag. So this year they've been releasing sets that allow you to trial their products on a budget. This one for Sensitive Skin is going to be right up a lot of people's street. Containing three travel sized products from their Evercalm range these may just be the solution for people who's skin doesn't agree with anything. Coming with a cleanser, serum and a day cream, this trio is half the price of a full sized product so I recommend grabbing one of these before they all sell out.

Emma Hardie Amazing Face Starter Kit £25
Emma Hardie's Moringa Cleansing Balm is one of the best cleansers on the market but yet again comes with a hefty price tag. So if you've been thinking of trying it out, I suggest you snap up this starter kit. This contains a very generous sample size of the Moringa Cleansing Balm, a tube of the Amazing Face Age Support Cream, a muslin cloth and a travel bag to keep it all in. And coming in at £25 this set is practically a bargain and not one to miss.
