Beauty Themed Holiday Gift Guide

The holidays are upon us which means there are tons of gift guides to sort through in your feeds! I’ve found that gift guides from online magazines / department stores / my favorite YouTubers are super pricey… Maybe one day I’ll be able to afford $50 probiotics from Goop ( ). But in the meantime, here is a curated gift guide for thoughtful and affordable beauty-themed gifts for most everyone on your list, whether naughty or nice:

For your Mama: Let’s be real. If your mom is anything like my mom or my friends’ moms she will return whatever you gift her. Fancy lipstick? Return. Fancy eye cream? Return. Fancy puppy? Return. Save you and her the trouble and go with the trusted Nordys gift card.

For your Sister / SIL: All of my sisters and SILs are busy mamas so I plan to gift them some beauty rest. I’ll offer a night of babysitting ( ) or these luxurious silk sleep masks from Silk. I would love the white leopard one for any family member reading this… jfyi ;)

For your Bestie: Both of my long-term besties are younger than me and still in their 20’s ( ). Fuss-free skincare that is still in super fun packaging is the way to go. I’m all about clean beauty brand Drunk Elephant and they have the cutest bundles to sample their basic skin care regimens.

For your Dad: My dad has been rocking a stache since the ‘70s so this beard wash from Jack Black is right up his alley. Also appropriate for the other bearded men in your life. Beards are so in right now and I’m surprisingly into it thanks to rustic Bradley Cooper in A Star is Born ( ). Side note, also really wanting a cowboy hat since seeing that movie...

For your Boo: Whether your boo is a man or a lady, this candle is literally the best thing I’ve smelled in 2018… super awkward statement I know, but, so true! This candle is scrumptious and can be the perfect romantic gift for a pampered night in!
