e.l.f. Eyeshadow Set – 96 pc. ($10)

The 96-piece eyeshadow palette is the gift that keeps on giving—endless eyeshadow looks. The palette itself is just gorgeous, with each shade sitting in pretty geometric shapes. With e.l.f., you can always be sure you’re gifting quality and quantity at a truly unbeatable price. We know we would be grateful if our besties got us this one.

CoverGirl Outlast Lipcolor Holiday Gift Set ($14.99)

Easy, breezy, beautiful—and affordable. (That’s our motto this year.) CoverGirl is offering a rather festive gift set this holiday season. These shades of red are totally festive and the color is crazy long-lasting. The set includes shades ‘Brazen Raisin’ and ‘Radiant Red,’ plus two tubes of a moisturizing topcoat for 24 hours of fabulous color. 

Burt’s Bees Beeswax Bounty – Assorted Mix ($9.99)

For the lover of all things lip balm, here is the perfect gift. If there’s anything more important this winter, it’s keeping those lips moisturized! The set comes with 4 different flavors, each serving a different purpose—nourishing, hydrating, replenishing and a traditional beeswax lip balm. And if that’s not enough, it comes with a cute little change purse, too!

Maybelline Color Show Nail Polish ($3.99)

You can never really go wrong with some nail polish. Can anybody really have enough of it? At just $3.99 each, you could pop a couple in a gift bag. For the holiday season, we recommend pairing ‘Rich In Ruby’ and ‘Gilded Rose.’

Give the gift of gorgeous lashes this holiday season with another goodie from CoverGirl. This gift set includes Clump Crusher by Lashblast, easily one of CoverGirl’s greatest gifts to the world. It also includes the Ink It! Eyeliner—honestly, what else would a girl really need? 

Juicy Couture Viva la Juicy Gift Set ($29.88) 

Perfect for the girly girl, this beautifully packaged fragrance set from Juicy Couture comes with a full-size fragrance, a mini version to toss into a go-to bag, plus body lotion—which everybody needs in the winter! At under $30, this gift set is a steal.

Doing some last-minute holiday shopping? There’s no need to stress—each of these drugstore finds are both festive and easy on the wallet, so you can gift well this season without breaking the bank, even if you’ve left your shopping to the last day… not that we’d recommend that!
