Do you have a skin care and beauty fanatic on your holiday shopping list this year? If so, take a look at our top ten list of cosmetic gifts and stocking stuffers that won’t break the bank.
1. IT Cosmetics Brushes
IT Cosmetics offers a wide range of makeup brushes, from small concealer brushes to jumbo powder brushes. Choose one or two as a stocking stuffer, or gift the whole set as a larger gift for the makeup fiend on your list!
2. Beauty Spoon
Thrifty beauty fans will love this stocking stuffer. The Beauty Spoon solves a problem that many of us have probably come across at one point or another. You’re going about your daily skin care regimen, only to discover that one of your favorite products is almost empty. Before you throw it away, use the Beauty Spoon to get the last bit of product out of your containers before getting rid of them.
3. Mini Tweezer Set
You never know when you might need a pair of tweezers, but this little item is often forgotten when traveling or on the road. Gift a mini tweezer set that your recipient can keep in her travel bag or car for those little emergencies.
4. OMM Collection Soap and Candles
OMM Collection uses plant-based ingredients in its beauty bars, shampoos, soaps, and candles. Include one or two smaller gifts as a stocking stuffer, or shop its gift sets for under the tree.
5. Foot Care from Baby Foot
Give the gift of smooth, soft feet with Baby Foot’s foot care products. The brand offers a whole line of inexpensive foot peels and treatments, plus soft treatment socks, smoothing gel, and wipes. And there are gifts for both women and men, so everyone on your holiday shopping list can have smooth, happy feet this year!
6. Coola Lip Balm
What beauty fan doesn’t love a great lip balm? The great thing about Coola lip products is that they double as an SPF and a tint. So you can keep your lips protected from the sun’s harmful UV rays while still getting that kissable look.
7. Concealer Wand
Concealers wands can come in handy if you need to cover a pimple or dark circles in a pinch, and they’re easy to keep in your makeup bag or car. NYX makes an HD Photogenic concealer wand that is available in 12 shades, including pastel lavender and green to help camouflage those pesky dark circles.
8. Travel Essentials for Flying
If you have a frequent flyer on your list, travel-sized skin care essentials can make excellent stocking stuffers. Make sure the bottles are 3.4 ounces (100 ml) or less, so they don’t get taken away in security. If you know which cleansers and moisturizers your recipient normally uses, you can try to find those same products available in mini sizes. Otherwise, essentials like travel toothpaste, soap, shampoo, and conditioner can really come in handy.
9. Essie Winter Nail Polish Collection
Essie’s arctic-inspired 2018 winter nail polish collection is here. Pick and choose which shades you want, or find a gift set that includes all six.
10. Beauty Blender
The Beauty Blender has been a popular makeup tool all year, and even won the 2018 Allure Magazine Best of Beauty Award. Use it to seamlessly blend your makeup without pulling on and irritating your skin. It now comes in five different colors and costs $20.
11. Magnetic Eyelashes
False eyelashes can instantly brighten up your look and make your eyes pop without the hassle of applying mascara. An inexpensive alternative to in-office eyelash treatments is magnetic eyelashes that you can easily apply and remove yourself at home.
