First gift guide of the season is LIVE. I actually had a different one slated for today, but since the Sephora Holiday Bonus Sale is still going on, I wanted to get this one out there! Initially I was just going to include beauty in with my “gift guide for her” but I took a poll on instastories and 70% of y’all said you wanted beauty to live in its own post! Sooo here it is!

The beauty guid is probably the most fun for me to make anyway, so I love that it has its own spotlight. I will say that a lot of it is stuff I have shared before, so it shouldn’t come as a total surprise? These are just my go-tos so it only makes sense that I think you should gift them ;)

I made a collage of everything but am going into detail below the pictures to share the “why” behind it. Everything in the collage should click through to the link except for the everything spray and the deodorant. Enjoy!! P.S. If you’re looking for more on those fun holiday sets, I actually shared my top picks of those over on this post!

See this content in the original post

Tata Harper Lip Treatment: Something I try to take into account when buying gifts is that it’s more fun if you know it’s something someone wants, but would never buy themselves. I’ve heard so many great things about this, but haven’t purchased yet because it seems a little steep for a chapstick. I’m probably going to grab this for myself with a Nordstrom Note I’ve been saving ;)

One Love Organics Charcoal Mask: This is my FAVORITE mask if I had to just pick one; therefore, it had to make my list. I love to use it as a mask, but it is also great as a spot treatment too! To read more about the OLO brand, click here.

Dry Brush: I’ve been dry brushing for almost 2 months now and I love it! This would be a fun gift to give with body oil! To read more about the benefits of dry brushing, click here.

Anthropologie Margot Canister: Okay so yes, there’s a toothbrush in the picture, but hear me out. You can for sure use it as a place for your toothbrush, but it would be so cute as a makeup brush holder!

Two Tier Server: This is sold as a kitchen item, but I actually have it in my bathroom as a place to organize all of my skincare products! It makes them look pretty and use up less counter space. Plussss if you need to use it in the kitchen, you can always use it there too ;)

Antonym Organic Highlighter: Highlighter is a fun holiday gift, because it’s party season and everyone could use a little pizzazz!

Axiolology Lipstick: I love a good creamy lipstick and it’s hard to find a good natural one.

Alima Pure Makeup Brushes: Makeup brushes for the little cup I mentioned above! These are CF and NT which is also hard to find in brushes.

BKR Glass Water Bottle: I’ve been using BKR for like 5 years now. I don’t really like using metal water bottles because the water is either too cold or tastes like…metal. Also BKR has the liter size which is great because I drink insane amounts of water and don’t want to have to refill my bottle every 2 seconds.

Kitty Headband for Washing Face: I shared this last year, but it is too good not to share again! This is the perfect little goodie that is cute, but also practical.

Lawless Lipstick: This is my favorite long lasting lipstick! A good Christmas color is Romeo - a sultry red, but my go-to neutral is Brad. See my review of the lipstick here.

Sprinkles Skylar Triple Cinnamon Vanilla Candle: This is a clean burning candle that also has a nice holiday scent! Plus there’s a secret sale that they are doing that automatically applies 25% off + free shipping to your order until 11:59 pm tonight!

Fleece Robe: I think I’ve had this robe for 2 years now? It’s so soft and snuggly, I wear it all the time. I own it in burgundy, but I think I may need another color just for fun;) I like it because it’s quality, but does cost almost $100…not in my budget!!

Herbivore Botanicals Brighten Mask: In my fall skincare update that I posted in September, I shared this as my fall mask! It brightens up your dull summer skin and makes you all glowy. Plussss it’s pretty and it smells good!

Primally Pure Sea Soak: I’ve gotten more into taking baths during this year than I ever have in my life. This detox soak is one of my favorites! It’s the perfect gift for the bath taker, but also for that person who needs to relax more. Also, if it’s your first order with Primally Pure, you can get 10% off w/code ELLEMULENOS.

Jade Roller and Gua Sha Kit: I’ve been rolling and scraping my face for almost a year now! It feels so good and I truly think it helps my skin! To learn more about jade rolling and using the gua sha tool, click here. This is a fun little spa set to gift, as it is pretty, but also really useful and easy to incorporate into your routine.

Biossance 100% Squalane Oil: This has become my go-to nightly face oil. Not sure what squalane is? Check out this blog post. I use it on my face, but you can use it all over your body, your hair, etc. VERSATILITY!

Faux Fur Slippers: This is kind of a given with their cuteness and budget friendly price, but slippers are always a good idea; plus, if you pair them with a beauty product, it’s like a mini spa gift set!

Primally Pure Everything Spray: I wish I would have found this sooner, because 4 months is not nearly long enough!! (lol) I’ve been using this as my toner since July and it is amazing. You can actually use it for other things too. Read my whole blog post on the Everything Spray here. Also, if it’s your first order with Primally Pure, you can get 10% off w/code ELLEMULENOS.

Primally Pure Charcoal Deodorant: I need to do a whole post on PP deodorant, but I did update my natural deodorant post search with this Primally Pure one, because it is my favorite!! I love the lavender and the blue tansy, but the charcoal works the best for me. Everyone needs deodorant and this could be the gentle nudge your family member needs to cut out harmful deodorant and even other products! Also, if it’s your first order with Primally Pure, you can get 10% off w/code ELLEMULENOS.

Feed Your Ends Hair: I’ve been using this on my hair for awhile now. This is a good gift because everyone needs to take of their hair! It’s really hard to find a spray in on the nontoxic side of the spectrum and this one works great.

Skylar Body Perfume: I first shared Skylar about 6 months ago. You can read about my search for a CF and NT perfume here. What’s really cool is that you can gift someone a sample pack so they can choose their scent, along with a giftcard that covers the cost of the perfume they choose! It’s the perfect way to get personal, but still let the person choose. I went with Arrow and bought the perfume/candle set. Now I want It in a roller ball travel version too! Plus there’s a secret sale that they are doing that automatically applies 25% off + free shipping to your order until 11:59 pm tonight!
