Hmmmmm how about Benefit 'That Gal'? I got that for a friend recently and she loved it. Or Chanel do limited edition colours each season, and sometimes limited edition products too so worth a look. Dior used to do a lovely shimmer body lotion that smelled nice and gave you a sheen, that has gone down well when I've bought it for other people but don't know if they do it any more as it's been a while since I looked.

Otherwise get her a make-up lesson at MAC for £25, it's then redeemable against any purchase in the shop so she could choose something she liked? I keep meaning to book for that but still not got round to it.

If your friend likes unique moisturizers and lotions or anti-aging serums and such, you might want to check out either 1) JuaraSkincare.com - they have all kinds of organic skincare products, or 2) Devoted Creations makes a paraben free moisturizer that is really cool also.

Both companies do nice packages and gift baskets and such but I just bought my sister a mother's day special basket last week from Juara and she loved it.

St Tropez are doing a gradual tan thing now, about £14 in Sainsbo's

Benefit make-up is good, cute packaging - Posie Tint or Dandelion are lovely and v good

have a look at halfpriceperfumes.co.uk - lots of branded product bargains on there - they had touche eclat for £14 last week i think
