I am a huge lover when it comes to beauty products. Actually I would say more obsessed. Today I am bringing you a gift guide of my tried-and-true favorite beauty and hair products. These are products that I am always reaching for, so they have my stamp of approval. I know that these would make great gifts for the beauty guru in your life (or even for yourself).
Let’s start with makeup! When it comes to applying my foundation, I can’t live without my Beauty Blender. It applies my makeup effortlessly and the application looks flawless. Any beauty lover also knows that when it comes to applying makeup having a great brush set is key. This brush set from Sephora is amazing (I don’t have it yet but I have one very similar to it). It contains all of the basic brushes that you would need to apply your makeup. It’s on sale right now, which is even better. Palettes are another great option for any beauty guru. One of my favorite palettes is the Urban Decay Naked Palette. It has a beautiful mixture of neutral shades, perfect for creating several looks. One beauty product I can not live without is mascara. When I don’t wear mascara I look like I haven’t slept in days. Tarte’s Tarteist Lash Paint Mascara is amazing! It gives your lashes that extra boost of volume and length.
When it comes to haircare, It’s A 10 Miracle Leave-in Product has done wonders for my hair. It keeps my hair looking shiny, smooth and frizz free. It’s also great for preventing split ends! When I curl my hair, I love using the T3 Whirl Trio. It contains three wands to help you create that perfect curl and it’s so easy to use! Another haircare favorite of mine is my Drybar Buttercup blow dryer. It cuts the amount of time it takes to dry my hair in half and it helps reduce frizz, increases shine and traps moisture.
Now let’s talk skincare. I am constantly trying out new skincare products. You could call me a skincare snob. I purchased some products from First Aid Beauty at the end of October and fell in love with everything. Their products have kept my skin looking refreshed, smooth and hydrated. One of my favorite devices to clean my face with is my Mia 2 by Clarisonic. It helps remove my makeup beyond the surface and does it in a gentle way. It also makes me face feel so smooth. Sephora has combined the Mia 2 and First Aid Beauty products here. This is an amazing deal! Along with both of these products I love using face masks. What girl doesn’t? This set from Sephora is awesome (it includes more than face masks).
I hope you enjoyed my gift guide! I’d love to know, what are your favorite beauty products that you’d recommend as gifts. Let me know in the comments below!
Love all these gifts! I usually buy my sister some kind of beauty stuff for Christmas and she loves it. It is always a safe gift to go with!
Thank You Ashley!! I hope this helped with some kind of beauty gift for your sister.
What a great list! The beauty blender is on my daughter’s list (and she is getting it!) And, I absolutely love that dryer – best one that I have ever had!!
Thank You Carrie! I love my beauty blender. I honestly do not know where I was before it came out when applying makeup. I also love the Sigma F80 brush to apply my make up when not using the beauty blender. That dryer is the best!!
Love all these items! Such great picks!

Thank You Belle!!!
I’ve been wanting a clarisonic for a while but need to look when there are deals!
Sarah it’s amazing! Try QVC. I believe they do flex pay.
The Naked palette is such a good gift, because it lasts forever! Also I think there are shades for everyone in each palette.
Alexandra I agree!! It’s such a great palette for anyone. You can do simple looks and then more smoked out/dramatic looks.
Ooo, those First Aid beauty products look great! I’ve always wanted to try them.
Emily they have some really great products! It has helped my skin so much with the weather getting colder.
These are great pics! I’d love the T3 Whirl Trio looks awesome! I think I need that in my life and of course, I can’t resist eyeshadow palettes.
Thank You friend! I love my T3 Whirl Trio. It is well worth the money. The Naked Palette is one of my favorite palettes to use.
Great roundup of beauty products! I’ll have to check out that Tarte mascara!
Thank You Cara. I love the mascara! I did find a drug store one those as well that I am loving.
So many amazing gifts! I would definitely love to receive any of those, especially the First Aid Beauty set or the hair curler.

Thank You Courtney! These are some of my personal favorites, so I am glad that you like them. The Whirl Trio is amazing and so are the First Aid Beauty products.
Great picks, I’ve been thinking of getting a new blow dryer and this looks like a great option! I want to try the mascara too!
Thank You Jamie! I love my blow dryer! It is more expensive than any drug store blow dryer but so worth the splurge! The mascara has done wonders for my eye lashes!
Love those items! Especially the Naked Palette… Love Urban Decay! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Thank You Flavia! The Naked Palette is amazing. One of my favorite palettes to use.
The its a 10 spray has been a fav for years. Great gift ideas!
Neely I love it! My sister had used it for years and I never used it. I finally jumped on the bandwagon and I’m so glad I did.
I have been wanting to try the Mia … I wasn’t quite sure if it was really effective!! Now that I know… I am going to ask my husband if he will get it for me!
Mary the Mia is such a great product. It does really well with deep cleaning my face and getting under neath my pores. I hope you get it as a present! It’s worth it!
A good beauty blender is on my Christmas wish list as well. I might have to add the T3 Whirl Trio to it. That sounds so cool to be able to create three different types of curls. Wow!
Mel having a good beauty blender is always nice. The T3 trio is amazing! The wands are so easy to use.
I couldn’t agree more with most of these! I’ve just purchased the Vanity Planet Facial Cleansing system, it’s supposed to be very similar to The Clarisonic. I absolutely adore Urban Decay’s eyeshadow palettes. You were spot on. 🙂
Thank You Alee! I have never heard of that facial cleansing system. I will have to check it out! I love the naked palette. One of my favorite palettes to use. 🙂
So many good ideas! I certainly wouldn’t mind that blowdryer.
Shannon
Thank You Shannon! I love the blow dryer!

Crystal it really is an amazing product! My hair feels so amazing when I use this.
I agree that a Beauty Blender is good because you will always need more and everyone uses one. Nice picks.
Marette I love my beauty blender. I also love using my sigma kabuki brush to apply my foundation.
I love that blowdryer SO much. One of the best!
Taylor I agree!!! It does great with reducing the dry time and it does not damage your hair as much!
Thanks for the great ideas! I especially like the Urban Decay Naked Palette. Great colors and the palette itself looks so nice. Some fun beauty gift ideas here!
Thank You Trish! The Naked Palette is amazing. It is more pricey but well worth the splurge. I have had mine for years and am still able to use it.
Such a great gift guide! Perfect for the beauty lover! I have the Clarisonic Aria and absolutely love it!
Thank You Chrissy! I’ve seen that Aria and I’ve thought about getting it.
I like the look of the yellow hairdryer – I do need a new hairdryer to be honest. Great selection. xx
Anna it’s a great blow dryer. Since using it, my hair has been less damaged.
The Clarisonic with First Aid beauty products would be my top pick! I own it and absolutely love mine, so I know anyone would love receiving it as a gift. Great list!
Thank You Erin! I love my Clarisonic! I use it at least 3 x’s a week. First Aid Beauty has so many great products!

I love your picks! I bought 3 of the Naked Smoky palettes when they were on sale last week so I’m close to done with my beauty loving friends haha!

I have that beauty blender and I LOVE IT! Those curling wands look great.

Alix I love my beauty blender. I have found though from the first one I purchased (about two years ago) to now, the quality of them have changed a bit. I feel I have to buy more of them, more often. I love the curling wands.
I want the Urban Decay Naked palette so bad! haha it’s been on my wish list for a while now, but it keeps slipping my mind to add it to my shopping cart when I’m ordering online or add it to my Christmas list.
Keating it is one of my favorite palettes. I hope you get it soon! If you get any coupons from Ulta (if you are a platinum member there), I highly recommend using it on that palette. 🙂
I love your choices! I have purchased The Naked eye shadow before and it’s fabulous!
Thank You Kimberly!! I love my Naked palettes. They are on the more expensive side but so worth the splurge!
These are all wonderful beauty products. I love how my hair feels after I use It’s A 10.
Thank You Tretre! I agree! It’s a 10 keeps my hair feeling so soft.
Oooh that blow dryer looks really interesting! Would love to try that one 🙂
Suzanne the blow dry is amazing. It has helped keep my hair undamaged when I blow dry it. So worth it!
I recently got the Mini Naked palette, but the big size would be nice too! This is a great list :))
Rosalyn I have one of the basic palettes from Urban Decay as well. I don’t quite use it as much because it is all matte. I love the Naked palette though. It’s amazing.
All great suggestions! I’m all about getting makeup for Christmas! I might have to buy some of this for myself!
Thank You Chelsie! I have all of these products and I love them!
I love Clarisonic!!! It is such a good brand. I have never tried first aid beauty but may I should!
Taylor I love my Mia 2! It’s a must! First Aid Beauty has so many great products! I recently fell in love with them.
Great picks! I know so many people who would love these.
Thank You Kiara!
This is a great list! I’m obsessed with It’s A 10! It’s my favorite hair product!
Lexi I am too!! It’s amazing!!! I love how soft it makes my hair feel.
