Boho Headbands -- beauty gifts or beauty stocking stuffers

Beauty Gifts for Pre-Teen/Teenage Girls

1. Sparkle On Makeup Collection – Have a daughter who’s just getting into makeup? This Sparkle On Makeup Collection is the perfect set for her to have fun. It includes eyeshadow, lipstick, eye liner and more.

2. 4 Pack Boho Style Criss Cross Headbands – These headbands make a messy bun look cute and stylish. Made from super soft cotton and breathable, they’re perfect for everyday use.

3. Merry & Bright Masking Kit – One of my favorite things to do with my pre-teen and teen nieces is face masks! This masking kit includes four masks and one scrunchie.

4. Velvet Hair Scrunchies – Scrunchies are all the rage right now and this set includes 45 different colored scrunchies!

Beauty Gifts for Her

5. Conair Foot Spa with Soothing Vibration Massage – I was gifted one of these a few years ago and it has become one of my favorite gifts. I’ve even used it when having friends over for a spa night to do pedicures and relax!

Makeup Brushes

6. 14-Piece Makeup Brush Set – Every woman can use a new set of makeup brushes! This one includes 14 different sizes and has thousands of amazing reviews.

7. Soft Yarn Cable Knitted Memory Foam Slippers – These slippers look warm and cozy and have great reviews. Plus, there are several colors to choose from.

8. Bath & Body Works Body Wash and Shower Gel – You won’t go wrong gifting the women in your life body wash and/or shower gel from Bath & Body Works. They have SO many lovely scents to pick from and I love receiving these as gifts.

9. Gold Eye Treatment Masks – I asked for these on my last birthday and LOVE them! They are so rejuvenating and help with my puffy eyes after not getting much sleep.

Beauty Gifts for Mom

beauty stocking stuffer: face masks

10. Glam Up Facial Sheet Mask Set – Moms need all the skin care they can get! This set is perfect to gift a mom and includes 12 masks – one for each month of the year.

11. Bath Bombs Gift Set – There’s nothing better as a mom than getting to soak in a relaxing, scented bath! This set has eight stress-relieving, scented bath bombs including Jasmine & Chamomile, Coconut & Shea Butter and more!

12. Mama and Baby Bear Necklace – I LOVE my mama bear jewelry! This necklace is so pretty and is hypo allergenic. It is made from stainless steel so it won’t rust or change color.

13. Multi-Zipper Crossbody Handbag Purse – About a year ago I switched to a crossbody purse and haven’t looked back. When I’m juggling three kids at the grocery store, it’s so nice to not have to worry about finding room in the cart for my purse or struggling to carry it on my shoulder with a toddler on my hip. This purse comes in so many cute colors!

14. Bluetooth Sleeping Eye Mask – I’m not going to lie…this is going on my Christmas list. As a mom of littles, good sleep is a rare thing. But good sleep AND good music? I’m sold!

Beauty Stocking Stuffers

15. Raytix Nail Clipper Set – Every girl needs a pocket sized manicure set to fit in her purse. This one includes 5 tools and has great reviews.

16. Bath and Body Works Hand Sanitizers – These hand sanitizers are perfect to fit in your purse or backpack and come in handy so often. I make sure to always have one on me and love the scents that Bath & Body Works offers. And they often run sales on these during the holidays — making them perfect little beauty stocking stuffers on the cheap!

beauty stocking stuffer idea: mini soy candles

17. Natural Luxury Scented Soy Wax Candles – I love candles! This set includes eight luxury scented candles – perfect for a quiet, relaxing evening at home.

18. All-Natural Lip Balm Gift Set – It’s always nice to have lip balm especially during the cold winter months. This set includes five Beeswax Chapsticks that are gluten free, free of parabens, and non-GMO.

Bonus Ideas (Over $30)

Have a little extra wiggle room in your Christmas budget and willing to spend a bit more? Try one of these bonus recommendations:

19. Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer & Volumizer Hot Air Brush – This brush not only dries your hair, but smoothes it and curls it all at the same time giving you a salon blowout look right from home.

20. Dip Powder Nail Kit – Dip powder is all the rage right now at the nail salons! If you know someone who loves doing their nails, consider getting her a dip powder starter kit like this one! Dip powder is much better for the nails and it lasts so long! Plus, it’s actually pretty easy to learn how to do on your own.

21. FabFitFun Box – This quarterly subscription box of all things fashion and beauty is such a unique gift idea! Each box comes with over $200 worth of full-sized products — all for just $49.99 shipped!
