Now that the countdown to the holidays has truly begun, I'm sure I'm not the only one who's constantly looking for gifts! My gift shopping is almost done, but there are still a few people I'm shopping for in December. And yes, it almost always turns out that a beauty gift would be perfect!

This is the perfect time to pick up Christmas gifts, gifts for your best friend or a hard-to-buy-for cousin, not to mention anything you forgot at the fall thrift event (I always forget something. Here's my post on that). ). the things I stocked up on during the Fall Savings event in case you need a refresher). I'm sharing some of the items I recently purchased that would make great gifts!
I have to admit that I didn't buy this set as a gift, but for myself! I've heard for years that Dr. Jart masks are great, but I've never tried them. I love that so many of their best sellers are included in this one set, and at $68 (a $98 value) it's a great deal! I’m most excited to try the Cryo Rubber Face Mask With Firming Collagen and the Pore Remedy Purifying Mud Face Mask.
I bought it in vanilla + coconut, but it also comes in strawberry + watermelon. This set includes a great lip balm and a “night sleep mask,” which is more of a lip balm in a tube that is extra hydrating. This is a great little set that you can either put in a gift bag or use as a gift for Christmas presents.
Someone I work with recently talked about how great the Sephora Outrageous Intense Lip Plumpers are, how they actually plumper and don't feel sticky! This trio is a good deal ($13 less than buying them individually) and makes a great gift or something to keep for yourself.
When Fenty recently released these Shadowstix I was pretty excited about them! Yes, other brands make eyeshadow sticks too, but Rihanna seems to be able to do no wrong when it comes to beauty. Their products are always great and become cult favorites for a reason. It's no different with the Shadowstix. I feel like they're a little creamier when applied than other eyeshadow sticks, which makes them a little easier to blend. But they “set in” after a minute or two and then don’t budge for the rest of the day. I didn't have any wrinkles and at the end of the day they looked great.
This little trio of Original Cinnamon and Vanilla Butta Dropz is perfect for trying out all the scents or using while traveling! This is my favorite body butter, especially in the winter when I want a little extra moisture. I bought a few of these sets and am keeping one for myself!
I've mentioned this set a few times this fall, but it's so good I have to mention it again! It comes with two of my favorite lip balms, a small perfume and a serum that is perfect for on the go. But the real star is the “free” makeup bag! It's really very well made, a thick velvet with great hardware. The zippers are even branded. And the CD logo can be seen on the bag. I think the set is worth it for the bag alone, but the Dior Addict Lip Glow and Addict Lip Maximizer are great extras!
I wear my Fenty ShadowStix (10 in the crease, then 1 on the inner half of the eye, 4 on the outer half of the eye and blend with the fingertip) and the Sephora plumping gloss.
