Gift Guide for the Skincare and Beauty Addict
BEAUTY GIFTS UNDER $25
1. Kiehls Butterstick Lip Treatment:
I love this stuff - it’s always in my bag, easy to apply, just the right amount of color, and moisturizes my lips. I’m gifting one to my sister this year (shh!)
2. Drybar Product Set
This little set is perfect for someone wanting a few luxe beauty products. It smells incredible and they work wonders on my hair.
3. Glossier blush:
Glossier has a cult following, so so of course I just ordered the four pack to try them all out. Right now, I'm very, very into a creamier blush - gives you the perfect dewey glow.
4. Patchology lip mask:
I just tried these for the first time this past weekend and they work great. My lips get SO dry in the winter, so these were a saving grace for me.
5. Mischo Beauty Nail Polish:
This local brand is one of my favorites - they're 9 FREE, toxin-free, vegan, cruelty-free, just an all-around amazing product.

6. Varnish Lane Cuticle Oil Pen:
I adore this. It's SO portable (and easier than the ones you have to paint on your nails), and so so so nice for my super dry skin in the winter. It was created by one of my favorite nail salons in DC, and I'd highly, highly recommend.
7. Molton Brown body wash:
I literally asked for this for my birthday this year - all of his products smell amazing and feel super luxe on my skin.
8. Herbivore Coconut Bath:
I keep this stocked in our bathroom at all times. It smells so yummy and helps me relax at the end of a tedious day.
9. Voluspa candles
My sister turned me onto these - she is the candle queen. Their scents are phenomenal too, I've enjoyed every one I've tried.
10. Ouai Rose Hair and Body Oil:
Another cult product, I ordered this right when it came out. It adds such a pretty glow to my arms when I'm wearing short sleeves, and I put it on the ends of my hair at night to keep the split ends at bay.
11. Caudalie gift set
If you're looking to give someone a taste of good skincare, this is the set you want. It contains many of my favorite Caudalie products and can be the perfect gift for that difficult recipient on your list. F

12. FRESH Umbrian Clay Purifying Mask
I was introduced to this brand earlier this year and I've been obsessed every since. I use their face wash every day. This mask is great for cleansing and purifying - my favorite Sunday night ritual!
13. REN Skincare Perfect Canvas
I adore this lightweight primer. It contains pro bionics which help the skin's appearance and agave extract prepares your skin for makeup. It also boosts your skin's immune system.
14. Tom Ford Illuminating Blush:
I tried out this product at an event with Sherber + Rad a few months ago and fell IN LOVE with this. It's my favorite blush currently, and adds the perfect glow. See my full review here.
15. Darphin Intral Cleansing Milk
Another luxe product I'm always restocking. It smells so delightful, and is great for sensitive skin.
16. Finding Ferdinand Lip Palette:
This is seriously the most fun palette I've ever owned. SO MANY lip color combinations, and! If you find one you love (mix away!) then you can actually order a full size of it. If you want to see it in person, it's sold at the Sophie Blake Collective in Mosaic District (another favorite local spot for gifts!)
17. MAVE razor
I just ordered this, and so excited to try it out. The branding alone is stunning, and I've been on the hunt for a good razor FOR YEARS.

18. Slip Pillow Case
I don't own this, but I've heard it does wonders for your hair and skin!
19. Le Labo Fragrance:
I have yet to meet a Le Labo scent I'm not obsessed with. This is one of their most popular, and if you missed my recap of their DC location, you can check it out here!
20. La Mer Moisturizing Cream
No surprise this made my list. It's like the luxest luxe of skincare. I only have one cream by La Mer, but I have a feeling this is only the beginning.
21. Vinter's Daughter Active Botanical Serum
Another cult find - I tried this at Take Care Shop this past weekend and WOW is it good. Makes my skin SUUUUPER glowy. Anyone on your list would be the absolute luckiest to receive this. If you're local to DC, stop into Take Care Shop in Georgetown to try it out - you'll be hooked guaranteed.
22. T3 Micro Straightener
I adore this - plus it looks SO chic on my bathroom counter. If someone in your life is in need of a new straightener (or wand or curler for that matter), I LOVE T3 products. See mine in action here!
