Figuring out what presents to buy (
and for whom) can be daunting. If you're still stumped on what to give some of the ladies on your list for the holidays, a beauty gift set can be the solution -- they are pretty packages filled with goodies, who wouldn't want them?
Picking one up may be a no-brainer, but pairing it with an accessory makes them a little extra special and unique. Check out some of these inexpensive gift sets and some ideas for additions to show a little extra love:
For the gym buffs, send them a gift like
First Aid Beauty's Essentials Kit (
$15) which includes all the essentials to help them freshen up post-work out: travel-sized face cleanser, cream, body wash and moisturizer.
Toss this set into a gym bag or include an
eco-friendly water bottle or two with it.
Dry skin in the winter is a very common problem and everyone could use a gift that helps keep the skin hydrated and protected. The
Watkins Lotion Devotion Kit (
$10) contains five 1 oz. hand and body lotions that provide deep long-lasting moisture. Perfect for just about anyone on your list!
Pair it with a cozy scarf or some warm gloves for extra TLC.
This gift set from
Caudalie is perfect for the wine lovers. It contains a crushed cabernet scrub, lip conditioner, hand & nail cream, and vine body butter for a nice at-home spa treatment (
$38).
What better way to pair to wine-inspired beauty products for your "wino" than with a bottle of wine! You can also give them a couple of snazzy
wine stoppers. They make a great gift add-on and are really cheap.
