What I Got For Christmas 2014!

Hey Lovelies, hope your all having a nice day and had an amazing Christmas and got some lovely presents. First off I want to say in no way am I bragging, I'm extremely grateful for all the presents I got and I love these type of posts and I wanted to share with you, what I got.
I've done these posts in the past and people seem to enjoy them so I decided I would share with what I got and I didn't know anything on what I was getting.
I got these three different hand and nail cream from one of the schools I work at which was very sweet of them, it's by Apothecary Hand Care Collection and one is lilac and sage, one lemon and fig and the other is elderflower and rhubarb. From a friend I got these cupcake bath fizzers they smell so nice. Then from a neighbour I got this body butter and sugar scrub set from Marks and Spencer. My sister got me the Zoella Fizz Bar, I've not tried any of Zoe's range and I love baths so I'm excited to try it. I got too different candles one from my mum and dad which is the Simply Home Yankee Candle in Christmas Treats and it smells so nice. The other candle is a Yankee Candle in Happy Christmas which also smells amazing and was from a child I work with which was so sweet.
I got this box of amazing goodies from the lovely Chelsea, it included a Dry Shampoo, 3 in 1 Cleansing Water, Carmex, Collection Mascara, Makeup Revolution Lipstick, Yankee Candle, Nails, Necklace, Press Powder, Tangle Attack, Face Mask and Samples, Brush and a small Liz Earle Hot Cloth Cleanser, which I didn't expect and I'm so grateful to her for getting me this.

I got this Fearne Brush Set from my Mum and Dad which are really nice and I'm excited to use and I don't have many brushes. I got this Be Enchanted Star Light, Star Bright Colour Collection which is such a nice little kit that I got from a neighbour, it has eyeshadows a couple neutral shades,  a green, greys, blue and purple shades, two pink blushes and four lip glosses it's such a cute little palette. I got the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle from my parents I've wanted this from ages and I'm so happy I got this and I'm excited to use it.

There was two nail polishes from Binky in Purple Shimmer and Red, they are both gorgeous shades and will be wearing them, I got these from my parents too. I got this Dolce & Gabbana Passion Duo Gloss Fusion Lipstick in Natural from my sister I didn't even know Dolce & Gabbana did makeup till I got this. My mum and dad got me the Rimmel London Day 2 Night Mascara, I've tried this mascara before and I loved it then. From the lovely Alessia I got this gorgeous Nars duo in Kalahari, I've only ever tried a blush from Nars and I loved it so I'm excited to try this duo and the colours just look so stunning and the sort of shades I would wear, I'm so grateful for this gift.
These two tops were from my mum and dad and there both from New Look, one is a black lace top and the other is a grey jumper with 3/4 sleeves, that is light and lace detailing on the bottom, there both really pretty and my sort of style. I got different pairs of socks I got some more black ones and some big thick cosy long socks, our house is always the place where socks go missing so I always need more. Then I got a few pair of new silky pants.
To start off with I got three different sets of PJ's, the penguin and cat PJ sets are both from Primark and they are so soft and comfy, looking forward to wearing them. The stripped ones are from New Look and they are thin PJ's, these were from family. This is a black and white blanket but you can wrap around yourself but it doesn't have sleeves, it's hard to explain but this is from New Look and it was from my sister and I never knew about these till I got one. Then I got this dressing gown from my mum and dad, not sure where it's from but its burgundy with polka dots and isn't too thick and so soft and comfy, I love it and I wear dressing gown's a lot of the time.
I got some jewellery too, I got two different pairs of earrings from my mum and dad, a pair is from Wallis that are silver with beads and the other is from Matalans and are gold with orange and a pale white stones and both are really pretty and I don't have many dangly earrings. The watch was from my sister and is from New Look it's pink and rose gold with diamantes, it's a lot like a Michael Kors watch but cheaper and I only have one watch that I wear. Then I got this big mug from my friend that has a hot chocolate mix and a little whisk.
Then I got some chocolates and sweets, I have eaten some of them but these are some that's left. I always get chocolates/sweets at Christmas which is great but I love chocolate so much that I'm going to gain quite a bit of weight. I also got some money too.
The biggest surprise was on Christmas Day was finding out that my parent's are getting married after being together nearly 25 years they are now getting married and me and my sister are going to be witnesses. It's not going to be a big wedding but I'm so excited!

What did you get for Christmas?
