Holiday Gift Guide-Beauty

Gift giving is very personal. In this commercial world that we live in today, we feel compelled to give gifts on certain occasions. We sift through stores and online gift guides trying to find that perfect gift because we can’t ignore the fact that Christmas is around the corner and well, that’s the time to give gifts! Don’t get me wrong, I love giving gifts, especially when I think of one spontaneously during the year ( oh this adorable pug measuring cup set is perfect for…) it’s just sometimes more difficult when you need a gift for everyone on your list and all at the same time of the year.

I am not in anyway suggesting I’m an expert gift guider, but if you have some makeup fans on your list or you are searching for something beauty related for a friend, mom or aunty, here are some ideas to ponder.

GIFT GUIDE

1. For serious makeup fans: “Face Paint” the story of makeup by Lisa Eldridge is a wonderful book detailing the history of makeup. Laced with anecdotes and gorgeous photos it would surely please any makeup lover.

2. For girls just starting out in makeup: Too Faced La Petite Maison– Housed in an adorable box, there are 12 shades of eyeshadow in very easy to wear shades along with their best selling mascara. The shades range from natural to dark, every color you need to start experimenting. They also have French Kisses Melted-4 great lip shades in a cute box.

3. For your #BFF – Eyeko “look me in the eyeliner” bag or Charlotte Tilbury’s Norman Parkinson makeup bag filled with her favorite beauty products like perfume in travel size or rollerball.

4. For mom or someone needing some pampering: Nuxe Perfume holiday set or Huile Prodigieuse black limited edition spray.

5. For the impeccably groomed: L’Occitane Pretty in Provence hand cream and Deborah Lippmann nail polish set.

6. For the busy lady: Clinique Chubby Sticks– perfect if you are pressed for time.The lip, eyeshadow and cheek sticks all work very well and are in great shades. My favorites: Moisturizing baby tint lip color balm, chubby stick highlight, and shadow tint in ample amber.
