As it’s almost holiday time I’m sure many of you will be jetting off on your vacations soon! You get to unwind, relax and enjoy this festive time with your family, which for me is always the best part of the year. Because I just recently started work I wont be having too much of a holiday, but I am still getting a little break. I was hoping to get away to Thailand but that will have to wait until next year, so for now I will be going down to the coast with my family, which of course is lovely! To help me get holiday ready I am currently using this mean trio from Clarins and today I have 3 of these hampers to giveaway to 3 readers!
Around Christmas time Clarins always comes out with beautiful sets (and value packs!). This is the Body Care Collection, which includes the Moisture Rich Body Lotion, an Exfoliating Body Scrub and the Hand and Nail Treatment Cream. I have used and loved the Body Lotion before and its scent is just amazing! I mostly use it in winter when my skin is a bit drier so if you are jetting off to a colder destination for some skiing or shopping, this is a winner to have in your luggage!
If you are visiting a tropical destination this summer (lucky you!) then I definitely recommend trying the Exfoliating Body Scrub. It is a small little tube that will comfortably fit into your carry-on luggage, and its great to use after the beach to scrub off all that sand! The little Hand and Nail Treatment is also always good to have with you, especially on long haul flights. My skin gets extremely dry and dehydrated while I’m up-the-air, so I make sure to drink lots of water and keep my hands moisturized! The pack also comes with an awesome gold cosmetics bag that you can store your make-up goodies in while you are traveling! The whole set retail for R430 while it has the value of R720!
To carry on with the fun Christmas vibe on the blog today, you can win 1 of 3 Clarins Beauty Passport Body Gift Sets as you prepare to jet off on holiday! To enter comment on this post and tell me, where are you spending this holiday season? For an extra entry you can tweet me your answer (@irinadoman) using the hasntag #ClarinsBeautyPassport. There will be 3 winners, and the competition will run until Sunday night!:) Good luck!
will spending it at the awesome wild coast – hole the wall, catching some rays
I will spend the holiday at home with my family.
Last year I went to visit my friend Rahel in Germany in the Christmas holiday, this year she is coming here to SA. We are going to have a staycation, visiting the beach, game reserves, being adventurous and more!
Christmas is a HUGE deal in my family, and my mom in particular lives for it. So we have a rule: spend Christmas with your family at home 😉
My closest friends and I will be going on a roadtrip along the coast of South Africa. We will be doing community projects and doing lots of adventurous activities.My family and I will be celebrating with the whole family at my ouma and oupa’s house this year. There will be delicious food and lots of presents. Hope you will have an amazing holiday! ♥
This will be the first year in 4 years that my bf and I aren’t overseas, so will see what the holidays bring here in SA. You need to go to Thailand!
My family and I will be spending the holiday in Betty’s Bay.
Spending this holiday season in europe.
I will be spending it at the Vaal with my bf #ClarinsBeautyPassport
At home with family. We going on holiday in Feb ?#ClarinsBeautyPassport
When you’re in the restaurant business, there’s no time to go on vacation during summer season. But CT has so much to offer ☀️ So we’ll be going on a staycation ? #ClarinsBeautyPassport
Going to Plett and then Betties Bay for some lazing by the sea, crayfish and sun!
We are spending it at home! But it is fine because hubby will be at home and not spending part of the day at work for the first time in years! So Happy Tweeting @anitasteenkamp1
since I’m saving up to travel to Thailand next year, I won’t be going anywhere to fancy or extravagant this festive season. But I can’t wait to spend my time off lounging at the beach with frozen watermelon and mango as snacks and occasional dips into the cold cape water!?☺️? #ClarinsBeautyPassport
I’m spending it at home with my family.. although, when I say home, i’m planning to do a bit of cape town site seeing and taking the kiddies on outings 🙂
I will be spending the summer by the pool with my friends!
My friend Dineo Lebea and I are spending this Christmas at Langebaan ,Cape Town golfing , horse back riding , birding , whales, seals and dolphin watching . Langebaan is going to be our Oyster and our wonderful memories created will forever be our pearl .
I will be spending my holiday in Hermanus with my family for Christmas. We’re leaving on my birthday which makes it extra special. I LOVE Hermanus this time of the year and cannot wait to spend time with my little one on the beach, it will be a first for him 🙂 P.S I have never owned any Clarins product 🙂
We are spending this holiday in Parys in the Free State. Not Glamorous at all, but surrounded by a bunch of family and friends. Looking forward to really just relax, reflect on this year and recharge for next year.
Home. Blow-up pool. Pumpkin. The end.
I’m not going anywhere this time of year but will be making the most of the Cape Town summer with friends and family with beach and braai days. While using my Clarins products I am going to pretend I am on a tropical island.
Home sweet home with my family
I will be spending my holiday with my parents in Kimberley. Cocktails, braai en swimming. This would be an amazing gift to give to my mommy.

#ClarinsBeautyPassport
I will be spending Christmas at home with my parentals!!
Will be spending the holiday at home in Cape Town, not that I’m complaining cause there’s no shortage of awesome things do do here.
I will be jetting off to my own poolside for most of the holiday as we are staycationing but there will be plenty of G&T’s, food and fun in the sun entertaining and I’ll be doing a lot of it in my new Bikini so would love to have my body holiday ready for that. #ClarinsBeautyPassport
Honestly Ive become so used to gym I think il spend most of my holis there esp since I lost weight and my asthma is finally under control so yaaaaay 🙂
Cape Town for the first time 🙂
I’m spending this vacation at home, but, living in one of the most beautiful towns in SA – Wilderness – just going to the beach and exploring the forest I already feel like I’m a million miles away on my own little planet
Mosselbay…..It really is one of the most beautiful coastal towns in South Africa. And it caters for every need : 3 huge shopping malls, seafood restaurants, oyster bars, sushi, cocktail hours with views to die for. And of course, spotless beaches with tranquil ice blue sea. ( ….plus Granny to do some much needed babysitting! )
This holiday season we will spend a chunk at home (but still having fun) but Christmas time will be with my mother and sisters in Scottburgh KZN where my children hook up with their cousins and have loads of fun and we all marvel at how much they have grown and generally have a fun, beachy, laidback time (and let my mother enjoying cooking for us again yay). This Christmas I’ve vowed not to stress and run around but rather sit back and catch up with family and friends, even if it means I eat only salad on Christmas day! hee hee
Manaba beach with my husband and my parents.
I will be spending my holidays at home with my family 🙂 But my skin is never on holiday
I will be spending my holidays exploring Cape Town 🙂 My friend is coming down from Australia and I’ll be showing her around. She doesn’t drink so I’ll actually be having good clean fun instead of parking myself in front of the cocktail bar all summer :). We’re going to do so much sight seeing and going to touristy places I haven’t been to in years. I think I’m more excited than her 🙂
2015 hasn’t been the best year for the family so we’re grateful to be spending the holidays at home, with each other!
I will be staying at home, enjoying going out & about in beautiful Cape Town 🙂
For my holiday, I will be showing my boyfriend the wonders of Africa for the first time! With a safari in KZN that he will never forget! Will definitely need some good skincare products for our travels 🙂
I will spend the holiday at home with my family. Will be relaxing to have a good rest.
No place like home so will be spending the summer holidays here in Cape Town, looking forward to those endess summer days and so many choices of beautiful beaches 🙂 having some clarins products would be awesome he cherry on the cake or shouldvi say the fairy on the Christmas tree 🙂
Staycation, at the pool with my boys 😉
Я буду отмечать праздники с семьей дома в Подмосковье))
I will spending this holiday season with my parents and parents-in-law in sunny Durban.
In the eastern highlands in Zimbabwe,
I’ve exhausted all my annual leave and i will be the only one in the Office during the holidays .:(
I just had a baby, so will definitely be spending it at home with my 3 kids and husband. It would be great to win though, perhaps if a blue moon appears and all 3 kids are sleeping at the same time, I could imagine I’m at a spa on some exotic beach while having my very own Clarins pamper session 🙂
My hands have been so dry lately, I’d love to try the hand and nail cream. Awesome giveaway!
Hi! I will be spending this holiday season in Dubai and India. It will be my first international trip so I am very excited about it. As everyone says – say yes to new adventures and I wouldn’t want to forget my #ClarinsBeautyPassport on my first trip out the country. Time to get into the holiday spirit! ?

Hello Irina! This holiday I will be spending time at home in Southern California. My family will be traveling to Dallas TX this year.
Unfortunately due to work, I will not be able to accompany them. But the good news is that I will be able to spend time with my boyfriend and his wonderful family so that definitely makes up for it. Although I’m not able to spend this christmas with my own family, I am so excited and feel very blessed to be joining in on their festivities. ☺️
Would love to win.
I’m spending my holidays between Hermanus and Cape Town man I’d love to win my skin needs some love! xx
I will be indulging in a week long stay on the Natal South Coast, right on the beach. Looking forward to returning to KZN to visit my family. I would love to add the Clarins Beauty Passport Body Gift set to my beauty routine as I am a dedicated user of the facial products (Super Restorative Day moisturiser etc)
I’m staying home with my hubby and kitty this holiday. Maybe next year we’ll be lucky enough to go somewhere but for now I’m looking forward to just a short break!
We have family coming over to us in sunny Scotland from Australia. We’re hoping for a white Christmas at home this year!
I will be spending it at the Durban beach front
I will be taking a fantastic trip to Knysna, travelling along the Garden Route. The first thing that comes to mind in trying to describe it is a neat ‘slice of heaven‘. Picture a small town, with breathtaking views of beaches and lagoons, a tonne of fun activities, much wildlife to explore yet can be one of the most relaxing places you can set (bare)foot on in South Africa… That’s Knysna.The magic about this heavenly destination is that whether you’re on holiday with great company, family, or a romantic getaway, it’s near impossible to be disappointed. I have tweeted as well @rehanaseedat
I will be spending time with my family on the KZN south coast as they are coming down from Johannesburg for the Christmas break. We will be enjoying going to the beach and having braais and just generally catching up with each other. Some great quality time together is what binds our family together. #ClarinsBeautyPassport
On Varsity break so will be spending time with my family, getting to get to the beach for some long overdue summer surfing, time out with friends over lunch and movies. Just relaxing and enjoying the welcome holiday break.
My husband and I will be spending 10 days in the beautiful Cape Town. It will only be the two of us as we are also celebrating our 13th wedding anniversary on the 14th of December.
Kleinmond, Western Cape, South Africa
I will be spending my time this festive season at the Vaal dam with family and friends
