Holiday Gift Guide 2017: Cozy Gifts

HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE 2017: COZY GIFTS

There’s just something about this time of year that makes you want to snuggle under a super soft blanket with a mug of hot cocoa in your most comfy pjs and warmest slippers and watch your favorite Christmas movies.

Thus my inspiration for creating a cozy gifts guide.

I’m not going to lie, I want all of these for myself, but they are each great gift ideas for others.

Pajamas

Victoria’s Secret-The Flannel PJ set

Victoria’s Secret-The Thermal PJ set

For many years I’ve gotten Victoria’s Secret pjs, and I have loved them! They are always so cozy and last for a very long time. (Truth time- I’m wearing some right now!) 🙂 But below are my favorite line from Target. They are the softest, most comfy pjs from Target I’ve ever had.

Target-Gilligan & O’Malley

J. Crew-Nightshirt

Robes and Slippers

Victoria’s Secret- Cozy Hooded Short Robe

I love the hood on this robe. And this deep purple color is really beautiful.

Victoria’s Secret-Slipper

These are free with a $50 sleep purchase at Victoria’s Secret. And how cute are they with that little pom pom?

L.L. Bean- Wicked Good Moccasins

I’ve been wearing L. L. bean Moccasins for several years now, and I love them! I love the shearling detail on these.

L.L.. Bean-Wicked Good Shearling-Lined Slides

L.L. Bean Slipper Sock, Cable Knit

These would be so cute with that sleep shirt from J. Crew.

Walmart.com-Chinese Laundry Lacey Slipper

I love that Walmart outsources with other companies on their website. You can’t find cute Chinese Laundry items in store, so when I saw these pop up, I had to click on them. Super cute.

Cozy Throws

Woven Tassel Throw Blanket- Hearth and Hand- Target

Perhaps my favorite thing from the Hearth and Hand line at Target.

Home Goods- Faux Fur Throw

As much as I love the cable knit one from Target, I do love a good faux fur throw. They are so warm and look so chic.

Now excuse me while I go add all of these to my own Christmas list. 🙂

Happy Shopping, y’all!

Holiday Gift Guide 2017: Beauty Lover

Happy Holidays! Well, almost…Thanksgiving is just around the corner and Christmas too, so I feel like it’s ok if I say that.

Today I’m sharing with you some incredible gift ideas for the beauty lover in your life.

Because I’ve joined the mission to get safer products into the hands of everyone,the products in my beauty guide are going to come from Beautycounter. And why not give those that you love something that they can feel good about putting on their bodies. Right now Beautycounter has a great Holiday Collection. I’ve mentioned before how easy it is to break these up and give as gifts to different people. Or, hey, maybe you need a gift for yourself. It is holiday party season after all, and who doesn’t need high-performing, long-wearing beauty products to get us through?

I will say that some of these gift sets have sold out, but have no fear! Almost all of them are coming back!! HOORAY! (That’s all listed under each picture on the Beautycounter website.)

I am here to tell you, I wish I had all of them. That Ultimate Nudes Palette is at the top of my list!

And I’ve really been loving liquid eyeliner lately, so I’ve got my eye on the Nude Eye Trio…let’s be honest, I want the Smokey Eye Trio too, but the nude one would get more use. And if we’re being REALLY honest, I want everything.

I’m a makeup girl. I always have been. Blue eyeshadow up to my eyebrows, pink blush, and red lipstick. That was my go-to look when I played in makeup as a kid. I wanted to be like Dolly.

Heck, I still want to be like Dolly. But now it’s more of the look Dolly has here that I’d like to imitate. 🙂 Gorgeous.

Moving on…

Any of these would make great gifts! And again, breaking them up would be so easy. Just a little something for a friend or coworker, babysitter or teacher, mom or mother-in-law, the list can go on. Unfortunately we aren’t able to restock the Holiday Hand Cream Trio. And trust me, you aren’t the only one upset about that. It was favored by everyone.

The Glow & Go Mini Oils is a shop one, share one special. With any purchase of the Glow & Go Mini Oils set Beautycounter will gift a set to a patient at UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center (JCCC)—a trailblazing destination for research, education, and patient care. What a great thing you’re doing! And not only would this make a great gift for yourself 🙂 but you could also break these up as an indulgent gift for your closest girlfriends without breaking the bank!

There are, of course, so many other options at the Beautycounter website if you don’t see something you like here. You can purchase single lip sheers and lip glosses (which I love), and eye shadow duos and all in a great selection of colors for everyone.

That is the mission after all!

*And here’s some insider info- well just a teaser really- stay tuned for some exciting things to come! You won’t want to miss out!*

If you’re new to the whole Beautycounter thing, please read why I joined this company here.

Then head over to my website and peruse the products. And please contact me if you have any questions. I’d love to help you find a way to get safer products into your hands for you and your family.

Happy Shopping, y’all!
