TOP HOLIDAY GIFTS FOR BEAUTY LOVERS

Today I am sharing my top picks for makeup and beauty lovers alike this holiday season. Brands are coming out with some adorable stocking stuffers that your loved ones adore, but won’t break the bank. Anyone would love to receive these gifts, myself included, and I want to share them with you all!

• Stila Play it Cool/Warm and Fuzzy Liquid lipstick Set: Stila makes some of the best liquid lipsticks on the market and I have always been a fan of the brand. In these two mini lip trios, you can try an assortment of beautiful colors for the holidays and they’re small enough for you to just put it in your purse and go! Their Stay All Day formula is matte, pigmented, and perfect for any makeup lover in your life. The Play it cool set comes with the cool-tone shades including Patina, Baci, and Bacca. The Warm and Fuzzy set comes with the warm shades, Splendore Shimmer, Caramello, and Beso. Caramello is probably my all time favorite nude Stila shade and it is absolutely gorgeous on all skin tones. I honestly don’t think you can go wrong with this set because everybody is raving about the Stila brand online and I don’t think anybody would be upset to receive these cute trios! 
• Artis/Brushcraft Linear 1 Makeup Brush: From the creators of everyone’s favorite brush brand Artis, is the new brand, Brushcraft. If you know someone that absolutely loves Artis, you should definitely check out Brushcraft brushes. They come with a super sleek black handle and the bristles themselves are  extremely soft. They have the same innovative shape and my current favorite is the Linear 1 brush. This is such a good brush from smudging out the lower lash line to create the ultimate smokey, holiday look.
  
• Dr Hauschka Makeup: I feel like Dr Hauschka is one of the most underrated brands, but the quality of their makeup is amazing. The lipsticks are incredibly pigmented and smooth. My favorite for the holidays is their pink and deep red colored lipsticks. Their defining mascara also has the perfect wand to separate the lashes and give extra volume. The concealer is super smooth and has a nice, natural coverage and the blush comes with two gorgeous pink tones. You really can’t go wrong with any of their products. I guarantee a beauty lover will thank you for introducing them to this brand.
  
• PIXI Peel & Reveal Set / Endless Silky Eye Pen Trio: Pixi makes some of the best affordable makeup and skincare on the market and for the holidays and they have come out with some adorable stocking stuffers. For makeup lovers, the Endless Silky Eye Pen Trio comes with a black, bronze, and rose gold mini eyeliners, which are perfect to create a variety of looks. I have tried them myself and I love that that the liners are silky and glide effortlessly on your eyes. You are easily able to create a soft or bolder look depending on the color and I love that it doesn’t hurt your eyes when you put it on your eyeliner like others that I have tried.
  
• Milk Makeup: Milk makeup has hit it out of the park with their launches this year. Some of my favorites include their Holographic Stick in Supernova and their Blur Liquid Matte Foundation. Their Holographic Stick is has meteorite powder in it which packs an iridescent punch wherever it’s applied. It’s definitely a one-of-a-kind color and melts seamlessly into the skin without patching or skipping. The foundation is perfect for anyone beauty-obsessed it’s lightweight formula is perfect any skin type and they have a variety of shades to choose from. It makes your pores and imperfections completely disappear and either (or both) of these products would make lovely gifts this holiday season.
  
• Caption Nail Art Screens: This is such a fun item to stick in someone’s stocking. What girl doesn’t like to pamper herself with an old-fashioned manicure? Nail art can be so daunting and these art screens take out all the stress and can make it fun! All you need to do is paint some nail polish on the screen and stamp the rubber tool on the screen and then stamp your nails. There are such a variety of patterns to choose from and it’s a fun way to get creative. You can turn any girls-night-in into a fun manicure night, and I am sure that any girl would be happy to find this in their stocking on Christmas morning!
