It’s the season for holiday gift guides, which happen to be one of my favorite kind of articles to read. I used to source my inspiration for gift ideas from magazines, but seeing gift guides on blogs have the added benefit of being clickable so it’s easy to look into a product more closely and immediately.
My favorite categories of gift guides are usually home and beauty, which is why I’m starting out the season with this beauty holiday gift guide. Beauty is a great multi-purpose category for gift-giving, since everyone uses beauty products in at least one form or another. Read through and let me know which of these are gifts you’d want to receive!
Eve Lom Restorative Moisture Ritual Collection would be the most amazing gift for your skincare-obsessed mom. The set comes with fan-favorites from Eve Lom like her TLC cream and cult-favorite Cleanser (plus the necessary muslim cleansing cloth). The mini Moisture Mask is icing on the cake for introducing her to the Eve Lom brand.
Eve Lom Cleanser and Muslin Cloth Bauble is such a cute stocking stuffer and perfect for a jet-setting recipient. The cute and tiny Cleanser and muslim cloth are just the right size for travel and will offer a bit of skincare luxury no matter where she flies off to.
Iles Formula Discovery + Travel Kit is another great beauty gift idea for frequent fliers. I actually took these conveniently-sized sachets of shampoo, conditioner and serum with me on my recent trip to Paris. The single-use size allocations make them very suitable for travel and the included comb in the gift box is a must for any packing list too.
EVOLVh Healthy Hair Revival Set is an amazing value set and a good way to introduce your friend to a new haircare brand with products she’ll actually use. The set strips down haircare to the basics with a shampoo, conditioner and masque treatment that all help to re-hydrate hair for its shiniest appearance.
Gorgeous Cosmetics Brow Contour Kit will become a staple in your recipient’s makeup bag. The kit comes with a versatile palette with three brow-color shadows and one champagne highlight shade. All four colors can be used as eyeshadows too. The included angle brow brush is full-sized and the neutral brow pencil creates sharp definition.
JINsoon Flapper Collection is a cute gift set for the recipient who gets weekly manis. The three colors: Nifty (blonde gold), Spiffy (rose gold), and Glitzy (silver glitter) feel very festive and apply with the ease and quality that’s typical of JINsoon’s lacquers.
BeautyBlender All About Face Set has three different-sized beautyblenders and works as a very useful gift for your most glamorous friend. You know that these will be well-used as replacements for the current beautyblenders she has in her makeup bag, plus she gets a beautycleanser to help keep her tools as flawless as her daily makeup look.
lilah b. The Perfect Pair is a good gift for the friend who loves vintage fashion and obscure music. This under-the-radar brand is all about minimalistic, simplified beauty, and the included velvety eye shadow quad and creamy lip & cheek highlighter are cool enough to align with your recipient’s everyday style.
LuLuLun Sakura Box is the cutest gift box for the friend whose fridge is stocked with more beauty products than food. These Japanese sheet masks are going to be amazing for her Winter skincare routine.
Ten Over Ten Holiday Trio is a nice collection of neutral basics that are also holiday appropriate. The trio includes: Oliver (warm steel grey), Catherine (apricot nude), and Market (ruby red). The non-toxic and cruelty-free aspect of these polishes also make them a good beauty gift option for your vegan and eco-friendly friends.
