Makeup Meg’s zodiac gift inspiration

Yes I am back my darlings! Even though Aphrodite and Kirstie are griping that I’ve left this Christmas list a tad too late I say – fiddlesticks! Spontaneous folks walk amongst us (those who leave their Christmas shopping to the very last minute) and will be glad of any inspiration at all. I speak of those who have to rush around packed shops on Christmas Eve, full of perspiring and hysterical people, grabbing indiscriminately at random items from the shelves. Like beasts tearing at a carcass. Ugh, makes me feel quite ill I tell you. Let us remember that what seperates us from the animals is astrology. So calmly read my words and all will be well

With the power of astronomy and more then a little touch of psychic insight, I know I am very good indeed at picking out presents for folk. I base my insights on star sign qualities and the likes and dislikes a certain zodiac sign possesses. I like to think I will pick out something exactly right for you or your loved ones – be inspired by the power of the stars…

Aries
I know how Aries loves to sparkle. It’s jewellery for Aries this Christmas. I took my inspiration from some of the new Sex in the City jewellery from Not Designer. Gorgeous goodies, jewellery modelled on what the stars are wearing; so, as the stars of the popular music might say: bling it up. (Hoho look at me with the lingo!)

Taurus

Now Taureans, as we all know love a bit of luxury and pampering. Give her a Clinique gift set, Molton Brown or Decleor. Or how about a gorgeous Body Shop basket? Dare I say it but Taureans can also be a little bit piggy, so a nice box of violet creams or chocolates will not go amiss either.

Gemini
The position of Venus tells me lingerie will be a sure bet with Gemini ladies this Christmas. I want you to look at La Senza and Figleaves for inspiration. Something cheeky and fun will be a bit of a lark!

Cancer
You know, Cancer people like everything to go with everything else. Have you got the shoes? Then you must get the bag to match! Got the bracelet? Get the earrings! And so on. So makeup sets were probably invented by Cancerians. There are so many fabulous sets out there this year my darlings. Kirstie has worked very hard to review them and bring them to your attention, so take advantage of her industriousness. Nothing too glittery mind, an Aquarian can prefer to keep it simple and classic.
Libra
Bathtime goodies this Christmas. Only fabulous ones mind! Lush springs instantly to my mind… And do not stop with the bath. What about pedicure sets. body butters, skin scrubs? And an aromatherapy candle to complement the lot? I have also seen the most darling Beautylicous gift sets in Dunnes and New Look, perfect for stocking fillers!
Leo
I have said it before and I shall say it again. Lovely Leo, it’s all about the hair. Look at the fabulous hair treats available for inspiration. Deep conditioning treatments, luxury hair goodies. Or perhaps a little hair glitter for the party season?
Virgo
Yes, yes, for Virgo the moon and the planets tell me it’s still all about skincare. But purchase ranges that are really top notch and jolly well work. Vichy, Dermalogica, Skin Doctors and Biotherm are all good choices and all do sets perfect for Christmas. Alternatively, you might like to try a No7 skincare set.
Sagittarius
An image comes to my mind when I picture Sagittarius this Christmas. It is of beautiful hands and nails, gorgeous polish and manicure sets. This is what to go with for Sagittarius this Christmas. Think of Revlon sets, nail buffing kits, or perhaps a professional manicure.

Scorpio

For the most outrageous and sexy zodiac sign I recommend something truly unique. Get your Scorpio something customisable. I so love these unique, customisable LCD belts or dog tags from Not Designer. Choose your own text – insert your/friend’s/sister’s name – or anything else that you desire! A guaranteed talking point and a present that cannot fail to please a show off Scorpio!

Capricorn
Capricorns love to choose for themselves. Bestow upon them a voucher for a facial, a massage, (or a spa day if you are feeling generous). To be honest Capricorns just won’t give you a straight answer if you ask them what they would like. Damn difficult people sometimes!

Aquarius
Gorgeous, classy, silver jewellery will be perfect for the Aquarians among us this season. Take a little peep at Spangle to see the kind of gift I mean.
Pisces
Pisces, my child of the sea, something pure, natural and organic is perfection itself for you this season. Try a range like Lavera, Aveda or Burts Bees for the Piscean in your life and your gift will be cherished .

Now I would love to know, little ones, what your starsign is and if these are gifts you would like. I could read it from you if we were together, but alas I am far away, our connection limited to cyberspace. Do let me know what you think!
