I know these things have a bit of a wait so not sure if you've left enough time to get it done.
But it's a nice thought

Women have their preferred cosmetics they have decided suit them by trial and error, and its best to stick with that brand.
You could be in trouble for offering what may be seen as - and may actually be - an inferior product..
My first wife used Max Factor, and my second YSL.
Even blokes can have preferences.
I"ve used my preferred and subtle Dior aftershave - Eau Sauvage - for many years, and haven't come across anything else I'd be prepared to use since.
If anyone gave me anything else I'd probably thank them politely, then bin it discretely later, to not hurt their feelings.
A wife may not be as nice about it, as you are supposed to know, and care about, their preferences after some time together

The Jurlique thing sounds like a winner to me, ditto the Pandora bracelet (but not at $300 per charm. That's just bloody insane!)
But the raffle/voucher book idea is deffo the best one in my opinion. How many blokes would ever think of something like that?

The more I look at this, the more I like it. You don't happen to have a template saved on your computer that you can e-mail me?

Na sorry Crevis, If I get time today I'll see what I can do. You'd probably be better off doing it as you know what appeals to her, apparently the other sex has different tastes to each other. We're the easy gender.

A budget of $20-30. Get something nice or funny, from the heart.
Well thats the instruction... BUT
Do i overspend on something she will like? Knowing fully well she will be upset because said wife only spent $19.95 on a T-shirt with a funny slogan OR
do I spend $25 on body chocolate? Knowing fully well said wife has spent $99 on Geelong DVD of 2009 finals series, and body chocolate proves i have no imagination whatsoever except about you know what!
Decisions, decisions.......

She'll love it then, I wont tell her that I suggested it , make sure you add some hearts and girly-like icons on it. She will tell her friends and family and they'll make you feel a million bucks.
