The Secret Santa Solver : £15 and under

Hello there, Fairypants fans! We're sorry that we didn't have a post ready for you last week, but we've been working on a special something for the festive season, and we'll have an extra post up later this week to make up for it! We present to you the very first edition of the Fairypants 'Secret Santa Solver'!

You know how it is - everyone at work draws names out of a hat and all of a sudden, you're saddled with buying a present, on a budget, for someone you maybe don't know so well.

We're here to take the stress out of the festive season for you! Here are our top 3 present ideas for a budget of £15 and under - AND we'll be covering other budgets later in the series :)

#1: The Ultimate Lip Kit - £12

If your recipient regularly wears bold & bright lip colours, the chances are excellent that they would appreciate our Ultimate Lip Kit. Comprising one of our super-sweet Lip Scrubs, a sumptuous Lip Balm and one of our beyond-beautiful (not to mention ridiculously moisturising) Lip Paints, this set is an absolute must-have for anyone who likes to look after those smackers! You can choose any combination of all of our flavours, scents and colours for each product and get a beautifully boxed gift set for just £12!

The Ultimate Lip Kit - £12

#2: Fairypants Boxed Perfume - £13.50

Ask around: if your lucky gift-buddy has a sweet tooth or a love of cocktails, or is even just a perfume-hoarder (plenty of us are, it's nice to have lots of options :D ), for just £13.50 you can present them with a perfume unlike any other. Our range of vegan perfumes includes scents such as Peach Melba, Strawberry Bellini, Cola Bottles and so many more!

Perfume 30ml - £13.50

#3: Mix & Match Nail Varnish Gift Set - £15.00

This one's easy. Look at your recipient's hands. Are they wearing nail varnish? If so, we've almost certainly got at least one set of nail varnishes that they will love. You can mix and match - for instance, if their signature colour is pink, you could pick out five pink-toned variations from each of our lines! Naturally, you could also just choose one of our pre-selected gift sets. For bold, sassy mani-fans, the Neon Gift Set is an absolute must have, but our Matte Pastel set is perfect for nail-fashionistas who like to keep it more toned down.

Neon Nail Varnish Set - £15

As I'm sure you already know, all of our products are 100% cruelty-free and vegan-friendly - tested only on willing humans! If you have become the Secret Santa to a vegan or vegetarian lady or gent, quite frankly we're certain that anything you could present to them from our selection would be gratefully received! All products are handmade in the UK and created by our very own Fairy Queen, Natalie :)

What would you love to receive as a gift? If you give it a quick tweet/share on Facebook, your Secret Santa has no excuse not to spoil you ;)

Etsy puts on her Fairypants!

Now, we don't know about you, but when we're having a bad day, we like to treat ourselves to a bit of retail therapy. We don't always know what we fancy, but we love a good window-shop. Like most people - we like to get our little fairy mitts on things that are unique. Don't you love being the one to introduce your pals to a new product or brand when they ask where you got your shoes/lipstick/bracelet from? It also feels great to support smaller businesses and crafters. For this reason, we love a bit of Etsy!

Etsy is a wonderful online marketplace, stacked to the rafters with the handcrafted, the beautiful and the unusual. The expression 'made with love' is pretty much par for the course in this world wide web wonderland. You can 'favourite' your preferred sellers so that you don't miss their new products and announcements, and better yet, it has its very own lovely app for shopping on the move - we find that a cheeky bit of Etsy browsing really cheers up the commute on a dreary evening ;)

If you didn't already know, Fairypants is on Etsy! All of our lovely goodies are arranged into categories for ease of browsing, and there's a contact button just in case you have any questions about any of our products or policies. There's a super simple search function to help you sniff out those harder-to-find products too! Natch, for those bold, cruelty-free-cosmetics fans, the obvious choice is 'vegan neon nail varnish'. For those who prefer their claws to be a little more toned down, you could of course search 'vegan pastel nail varnish'...

As for navigating the app, that's easy as pie!

Use the 'sections' function to find what you're after!

Browse the scrummy flavour/scent ranges of our products!

If you're not sure what you're after, you can just scroll through all of our individual products and bargain gift sets!

If you're a new addition to the Fairypants clan, put your mind at ease looking at the fab reviews we've had from our past customers!

Happy shopping, fairies!

Autumn Treats: Keep Those Smooches Soft & Sweet!

We know, we know - in our last post we were teaching you how to cling on to Summer. That said, we can't deny (as much as we want to) that the weather is likely to start getting a little bit nippier soon.

As much as we love our sunshine, we're excited to say hello to the chill! Why? WELL, if you can think of a better time of year to indulge in lip balms that smell good enough to eat, we'd be very surprised.

For those of us who don't like your run-of-the-mill, bland chapsticks, the Fairypants Lip Balm range is a welcome change! If you think of a couple of your favourite tasty treats, the odds are that you'll find a lip balm in our range that matches at least one of them! Made using shea butter and jojoba wax (more info on our website, and even MORE available on request), your lips won't know what they did to deserve these little pots of loveliness!

Blueberry Muffin? Peach Bellini? Pina Colada? Rhubarb & Custard? Barely the tip of the iceberg, folks!

Why not treat yourself to one of our delectable lip scrubs while you're at it? Cruelty-free, gentle on your smackers and smelling good enough to eat, it's hard to find a reason NOT to indulge!

We'll catch up with you again soon, but in the meantime, here are a few of our favourites :)
