In need of a last minute “Friendsgiving” gift, a little present to say thanks to one of your family members or something to put on your Secret Santa wish list? Wake Forest Her Campus Chapter was lucky enough to team up with some amazing brands to try out some of their new and/or fan-favorite products. I’ve compiled a list of the my favorite of the product to provide you with a list (along with order links) of easy and affordable, yet thoughtful presents you can buy for yourself or others this holiday season:

  1. eos’ “Organic Lip Balm in Tropical Mango.”

Again, I am very picky about the products that I use on my skin, but eos is one of my favorite brands because their products use organic ingredients that don’t dry out your skin. Even better, they never test on animals. This super soft lip balm is crafted with hydrating organic oils and replenishing shea butter infused with rich mango extracts to deeply moisturize dry lips with natural, fruity goodness. It is hypoallergenic and small enough to fit into most purses, backpacks and even some wallets.

2. Primark beanies.

I first discovered my love for Primark while shopping along Oxford Street in London. However, you don’t have to travel far to get the “London look.” Primark is basically the European version of Forever 21 in that they make fashionable, yet very affordable clothes and accessories. I love this cute little beanie hat because it matches well with any winter outfit.

3. Almay’s “Goddess Gloss.”

Alright, you may already have your lip routine down, but I strayed from my usual Burt’s Bees and Kyle Jenner Lip Kit to give this product a chance, and I was pleasantly surprised. These glosses come in many different pink, clear glitter, light brown, lavender, and reddish shades to give your lips high shine and an iridescent glow. Plus, they motorize your lips without leaving any sticky feeling.

4. VELCRO® Brand HANGables® Removable Wall Fasteners

Taking a slight left turn from the beauty products- these wall fasteners are actually a life saver. Want to hang up cute pics from this semester up on your wall without running the paint? Need a quick organizational tool to organize your winter wardrode you are FINALLY breaking out? HANGables® Wall Fastening Solutions are the perfect way to decorate any living space and hang up your favorite items. Enhance any room with ease or create cutesy collages, without the hassle of hammer and nails (or annoyingly inefficient wall putty).
