7 weeks or 51 days left until Christmas, thus it's time to get your holiday shopping done now. If you are having trouble thinking of the perfect holiday gift for your makeup obsessed friend (or lady friend) look no further, I "gotchu".
Benefit Cosmetics || Sassy Lassie "Chick Picks" Beauty Bestsellers Kit || $39.00 at Sephora
If you're on a budget this is the perfect gift for her. This kit has Benefit Cosmetics' bestselling products. All items in this kit can be universal to all skin types. There's four items: the POREfessional face primer (full size, $31.00), the Roller Lash curling & lifting mascara (full size, $24.00), Hoola matte bronzer (mini size, $15.00), and the Ka-BROW cream eyebrow gel in 03 Medium (full size, $24.00). This is $94.00 value kit! If the savings haven't convinced you then I don't know what else would.
You may be asking yourself, "what if she already owns some or all of these products?" Trust me, as a makeup fanatic, I wouldn't mind receiving this gift set. The packaging is amazing and the products are all holy grail thus they won't go unused!
Natasha Denona || Star Palette || $169.00
If money isn't an issue and you really want to impress your friend then you should definitely consider this palette. Natasha Denona is known for her high end makeup line. Her makeup isn't just expensive, but it truly is worth the money. The shadows are highly pigmented, extremely blendable, and easy to work with. There is a lot of fallout but the reason for that is that the shadows are pressed pigments, which allows for the high quality pigmentation.
You may not understand the reasoning for why this palette is so pricey since the colors aren't particularly unique but for someone who speaks makeup, the fact that this palette offers 18 beautiful shades with two never before seen textures, it's worth it. This palette is versatile.... there are mattes, shimmer shades, and even duo chrome pigments, what more can you ask for!
Morphe Brushes || Set 503 || 12 Piece Beautiful and Bronze Set for $49.99
If you still aren't convinced on what to get her then maybe you should look into beauty tools, without good beauty tools it doesn't matter if you have high end makeup or not, trust me, the look won't come together as nicely if you you don't have the right tools. Morphe is a well known makeup brush brand, all Youtube gurus rave about the amazing quality. If you were to buy each brush individually it would be way over $100!
Here are just three good gift ideas for the holidays. If you are planning on getting one of these, I would snag one right now; because, they won't be available past thanksgiving, for sure! I'll keep posting new makeup gift set as they come out!
