  3. Garmin Lily Small Smartwatch This is a perfect watch to provide style as well as fitness tracking. If you don’t love the look of an Apple Watch, or you just want a more classic look for nights out while still tracking your activity, this is the one!
  4. Tan-Luxe The Face Drops A great addition, especially during the winter months, to keep a fresh glow going. A little on the pricier side so a definite luxury gift for the girl who likes to primp herself.
  5. T3 Curling Iron A splurge but a very highly reviewed beauty item for the hair queen in your life.
  6. beats Headphones If you compulsively lose your air pods or you want over the head headphones with amazing noise cancellation and style, these are going to be your best friend.

  9. Naked 2 Basics Palette A simple palette for the natural-look makeup queen. Perfect for on-the-go and the minimalist beauty traveler. Urban Decay makes great palettes and this is no exception!
  10. T3 Airebrush Duo Blow Dry Brush I know I have a lot of hair styling products but if you want to get the full set, this blow dry brush would pair greatly with the curling iron linked above!
  11. SOJOS Sunglasses If you break or lose sunglasses as much as I do, then you need these budget-friendly and so stylish! You can get polarized and so many styles for under $20 a pair and the quality is SO good.

  13. Revitalash Eyelash Serum Splurge, but so. worth. it. This eyelash serum is the only one I have tried with AMAZING results. Seriously. It goes on sale once or twice a year so keep an eye out for deals on Amazon but full-price, it’s still worth every penny.

  19. Microderm Glo Facial Steamer Spa A great way to have a spa day at home. This facial steamer helps skincare products absorb more thoroughly and is a relaxing treatment! Great gift for any woman.
  20. Dyson Airwrap The infamous airwrap. Although I haven’t had the pleasure of trying it out for myself, I think the reviews speak for itself.
  21. Oribe Gold Lust Repair and Restore Luxury hair products for the woman looking for extra haircare.
