My favorite thing is gift-giving. There is nothing like going through the process of carefully listening to your friends and family the months before Christmas to pick the best thing to get them. I get so excited and usually end up giving my family members their presents before the actual day.
As fun as it is, it can easily be stressful especially when trying to find smaller gifts where you don’t want to spend too much, but still want to buy something you know they’ll use. Thankfully, Amazon has a really useful Holiday Gift Guide. I also took a look and compiled some items that you might buy this year!
- JAde Roller and Guasha Set
-
This guasha set was a big hit this year. I first saw its effects on TikTok and they are dramatic in helping blood flow in your face. The jade roller in this kit also is great not only in helping distribute products such as serums but reducing puffiness. For its price at $17, it’s a bargain for skincare instruments. Plus, it will deliver on time with Prime 2-day shipping!
- Moroccan argan oil ornament kit
-
I knew I had to put this on the list as this brand is one of my absolute favorites. The wintertime wreaks havoc on my hair due to the lack of moisture in the air. Not only does this oil smell so great, but it instantly adds shine and moisture to keep my hair healthy and lively in the colder months. Definitely, an item to splurge on if you can, but this ornament gift is the perfect introduction to the line.
- Burt’s Bees holiday Kits
-
I recently got into the Burt’s Bees line of products and I can say I am obsessed. I tried their lip tint chapstick and fell in love. Now, my Secret Santa pick is getting a host of products from them. These kits also have a great variety ranging from their classic lip balms to skin lotions. There is something for everyone and the packaging is just a huge win.
- Satin Pillow Cases
-
I have been using satin pillowcases for years and this is a go-to little gift for me. These cases work to protect your hair from overnight frizz and damage, as well as keep your skin healthier through increasing hydration. They also help to prevent fine lines and wrinkles. Being such a simple switch in routine, it’s a great gift (and only around 7 to 8 dollars!)
- Flower Hair Clips
-
Hair clips are one of the best things to become popular in 2021. In a time crunch, they are cute and hold hair so well, even in thick hair like mine. Switch it up and do a half up half down look, basically, the options are quite versatile. These flower hair clips add to that versatility and cuteness! In a variety of colors as well, they are the perfect hair accessory gift.
- Hair Towel
-
Going along with the hair care idea, a hair towel might be your next necessity. Using regular towels causes unwanted breakage to your hair and should be avoided. These hair towels keep your ends healthy and make drying so much easier. At the price range of 2 for $10, this cannot be beaten!
- Body Brush
-
The cold is brutal. In just the past week in State College, we have gone into true winter and I am not doing well. To help my dry skin, I know I rely on exfoliating with a good body scrub and more important a good body brush. This brush is only ten dollars and helps relieve your skin and keep it glowing!
- Cute Socks
-
It’s truly as simple as this. You can never go wrong with a cute pair of socks. They’re the perfect addition to any cold-weather outfit and I know I will be requesting these frilly socks on my wishlist this year.
- Body Shop Gift set
-
This gift set from the body shop is the cutest thing ever. Not only does it come with 3 of their amazing-smelling products, but it comes with such a cute travel bag, perfect for different holiday visits you might take this season. For just $15, this is a great stocking stuffer. They also have lots of other Prime gift sets if you are in a crunch.
- Perfume Samplers
-
It’s hard to gift perfumes. I know I am extremely picky with my scents, so perfume samplers are a go-to for me. Clean is a great brand and this particular set is meant for layering so you can craft your own scent for your skin. This is definitely something unique for this year and I am super excited to try!
