QVC Holiday Gift Ideas + Philosophy Giveaway!


You may or may not know from reading this blog that I'm a bit of a QVC addict. My husband likes to make fun of me when he comes into the family room and sees me watching one of the QVC beauty segments (I like to DVR them if I can't watch them live- I learn so much about the products and brands this way). He has this notion in his head that watching a "home shopping channel" is something our mothers used to do and he thinks that they're selling corny "As-Seen-on-TV" products. Of course, I have schooled him many times on the fact that QVC is literally the best place to buy my favorite beauty brands like Philosophy, IT Cosmetics, Mally Beauty, Tarte, Josie Maran, Bobbi Brown, bareMinerals (and many more) but it goes right over his head. He tends to tune me out when I start talking beauty products, lol. 

So being the QVC superfan that I am, I was beyond excited when they offered to send me the new Philosophy Happy Holidays 12-piece Bath & Body Collection $64 ($122 value). And when the box arrived at my house, I was totally surprised to see a note inside that said that they included a second set for me to share and of course, I immediately thought of you guys!
 So be sure to check out my giveaway at the end of this post for your chance to win this amazing set before it launches on November 28th.* Supplies are limited and it's likely to sell out quickly. 
This kit contains all bath and body products in several different scents. There are four 6 oz. Shampoo, Bath & Shower Gels, four 1 oz. hand creams, and four of their high-gloss, high-flavor lip shines. 

Peppermint Stick is a sweet take on peppermint and smells just like a candy cane.

Fresh Cream is a scent I was already familiar with since I use the full size shower gel on a regular basis. It's delicate, sweet, and creamy without being cloying or too heavy. 

Snow Angel is the perfect clean and crisp scent...like fresh linens. My husband likes this one the best, and told me I smelled really good the day I used it.  There isn't a Snow Angel lip shine so I paired this with the Marshmallow Buttercream one for this photo. And yes...that one is as delicious as it sounds!

Lemon Custard smells like lemon pound cake. It's very light and not overpowering at all, so if you're not usually a fan of lemon scents, you might really like this one. The Cherry Christmas lip shine is a sweet cherry pie filling sort of scent and also leaves a pretty tint on your lips.


In addition to this set, which will be available on 11/28/15 there are some amazing holiday gifts at QVC this season...here are some of my picks:

    11. I wish we had QVC in Australia. I always get so jealous when I see these posts! Although if it did have QVC in Australia, they'd probably manage to screw if up like they did with Sephora Australia (don't ask - just check out www.sephora.com.au if you want to see the disaster!)
