Holiday Gift Guide – Beauty Edition

I went shopping at Sephora today to take advantage of the VIB Sale {going on now through November 15th} and it inspired me to put together a few of my favorite beauty picks in three gift guides to give you some ideas for the holiday season. I created three holiday gift collages for gifts under $50, luxury picks, and stocking stuffers. Feel free to click on any image in the collages below for the exact link!

 

 

  1. Kopari Coconut Multitasking Kit – this comes with the coconut melt, sheer oil, body glow, and balm. I use this coconut oil as hair masks and the body glow leaves a gorgeous golden sheen and smells like gardenias.
  2. Rouge Dior Mini Lipstick Set – Dior’s lipsticks are some of my favorite formulas {they don’t dry out my lips} and this set includes a variety of shades that are perfect for any type of makeup look.
  3.  Disney x Kiehl’s Creme de Corps Collection – You had me at Mickey but this set features one of Kiehl’s best-selling lines, Creme de Corps. Not only does it deeply hydrates the skin, it smells like decadent honey…almost good enough to eat.
  4. Tartelette In Bloom Clay Eyeshadow Palette – This palette includes a variety of shades in matte and luster finishes. Made with Amazonian Clay, these shadows blend effortlessly and smooth.
  5. stila Written in the Stars Glitter & Glow Liquid Eye Shadow Set – These gorgeous shadows will add a beautiful sparkle to your makeup looks for the holiday season.
  6. Bite Beauty The Perfect Bite Amuse Bouche Lipstick Set –  This set comes with four satin finish lipsticks – a plum, bright red, beige nude, and pale pink.
  7. Nest Pumpkin Chai Scented Candle  I’m obsessed with this candle. It’s the perfect pumpkin spice scent – not too sweet sugary sweet or over-the-top. Plus it has an amazing throw that lasts for hours.
  8. Laura Mercier Mode to Modern Caviar Stick Eye Colour Collection –  I reach for these when I don’t feel like fussing with my makeup. The wand applicator makes them easy to apply, they don’t crease, and the colors are very wearable.
  9. Burberry Festive Beauty Box – This is a great set for a luxury makeup lover because you get a variety of products to try – a primer, mascara, eyeshadow, and lipstick. I was excited to see the Fresh Glow included, it’s one of my favorite illuminating primers.
  10. Caudalie Mini Mask Trio – This set includes a detox mask for deep cleansing, a glycolic peel for brightening, and a moisturizing mask for extra hydration. It’d make the perfect gift for any skin care lover!
  11. L’Occitane Holiday Crackers Collection – I love L’Occitane and this set includes a some of their best-selling products from the Shea Butter, Almond, and Cherry Blossom lines to cleanse, hydrate, and soften the skin.

 

 

  1. Burberry Beauty Fresh Glow Highlighting Powder – I have a full review of this highlighting powder linked here but it gives a beautiful and soft subtle glow to the skin without being over the top. The lace overlay in the powder is gorgeous, almost too pretty to use!
  2. Dyson Blown-a-Ouai Set – I’ve been debating on getting the Dyson dryer since it launched but the extremely high price tag has kept me away…however, this gift set is veryyy tempting. It’s on my wishlist. 😉
  3. Gabrielle Chanel Fragrance – The “it” fragrance this season. Chanel hasn’t launched a fragrance in 15 years and this does not disappoint. If you watched my fragrance holiday gift guide you’ve already heard my thoughts, but this iconic white floral fragrance would make the perfect gift for any fragrance lover.
  4.  Lancome Genefique Youth Activating Second Skin Mask – I usually don’t rave about sheet masks but this one is amazing. It leaves your skin incredibly silky soft and smooth, pores disappear and makeup applies more evenly. After trying a few samples, it’s on my wishlist.
  5. Bobbi Brown Luxe Classics Mini Lipstick Set – Bobbi Brown is known for their classic lipstick colors (she made nude brown lipstick cool way back in the day) and this gift set would be the ultimate luxury gift for fans of Bobbi’s classic staples.
  6. La Mer Set – This set actually sold out while I was writing this blog! I’m sure everyone who’s shopping the VIB Sephora Sale jumped on this set because La Mer is expensive yet highly coveted and gift sets are a great way to try it out. The Moisturizing Soft Cream Collection is still available here if you’re looking to give it a try!
  7. Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille – This unisex fragrance is my ultimate date night scent. It smells like sweet vanilla, clove, cocoa – it’s mysterious and addicting. One of mine and Matt’s all time faves.
  8. Dr. Brandt Skincare Age Defying Microdermabrasion – If you know any skincare junkies this microdermabrasion is one of the best I’ve tried! I’ve raved about it in my videos and I bought it during the VIB Sale this year.

 

 

  1. Nest Birchwood Pine Candle Ornament – It smells just like a Christmas tree and the gold and white packaging is so festive!
  2. Tarteist Pro to Go Amazonian Clay Palette– This small eye shadow palette combines the perfect amount of matte and metallic eyeshadows in wearable shades.
  3. L’Occitane Holiday Ornament – All of the L’Occitane favorites inside a cute ornament.
  4. Tacha Polished Cleansing Rice Enzyme Powder – An exfoliator made with rice powder to brighten and deep cleanse the skin. This is a cute mini size and would make a nice gift for a skincare lover.
  5. Lavanilla Best Selling Deo Duo – Natural deodorants that actually work.
  6. Mini Benefit Roller Lash – One of the best curling mascaras I’ve tried and the mini size is great for travel.
  7. BeautyBlender Midas Touch – Every makeup lover needs a BeautyBlender sponge and this cute set includes the cleanser, too!
  8. L’Occitane 4-Piece Hand Cream Delights – L’Occitane makes the best hand creams and this set includes four different scents – Shea Butter, Almond Delicious, Cherry Blossom, and Delightful Rose (my personal fave).
  9. Invisabobble Hair Ring – Hands down the best hair tie – it doesn’t leave a crease or break your hair. I can’t live without these!
  10. Sephora Almond Foot Mask – The pink packaging is super cute!
  11. Fresh Vitamin Nectar Vibrancy-Boosting Face Mask Mini – A yummy citrusy treat for your skin. This mask brightens with citrus peels and leaves skin glowing and fresh.
  12. Tarte Wide Awake Eye Set – Everything you need to look refreshed and awake after a late night out.
