Perfect All-In One Make-up Gift Set
The Day to Date Colour Collection by Elizabeth Arden in a great kit for someone who wants a complete look with the hottest colours of the season that transitions from everyday work looks to evening glam. The kit is available at The Bay and also at Shopper's Drugmart for around 80 dollars, and it's the newest addition to my stash! I gotta say, I love the high quality pigments and the luxe packaging.
