2016 Holiday Gift Guides: Part Five


The holidays will be here before you know it and there is no denying that you will need to buy some presents for lots of people. Those people on that list run the gamut from gym rat, to beauty aficionado, to clueless in the bathroom and everyone in between. From now until the holidays, I will be featuring some of the best gifts to help you tick off everyone special on your list. Make sure to subscribe, so you do not miss a single post.

V76 by Vaughn Well Groomed Travel Kit ($37): Travel kits are great for traveling or for trying out products for the first time. Regardless of what he needs this is a great kit that has everything. There is an Energizing Shampoo & Conditioner, Energizing Body Wash, Styling Cream and Smooth Shave Cream. This is great for the man on the go because everything he needs is in one simple clear pouch. He just needs to throw it into his gym bag or suitcase and he is ready.

Ultimate Beauty Kit by Pixi By Petra ($34): There is nothing better than a make up palette. No one, not anyone, is going to be upset when they unwrap this. Clearly this one is a winner, since its the third one and the price is so perfect. It is on trend to the max. The outside parts have 40 different eye shadows in every shade that is perfect for everyday wear. The center helps you to achieve that contoured look with a bronzer, highlighter, and contourer. Unlike the other make up palettes out there for holiday this year, every single color is one she will wear. It is also great for travel to because everything is compact, but diverse enough to achieve all looks.


Instant Volume Travel Set by Phyto ($25): There seems to be an unforeseen theme with round five's installment: travel ready beauty. However, anything easy to port around it hard to come by in high end products and everyone always needs. This is why any of Phyto's travel sets are the perfect stocking stuffer or an office white elephant. No frills, in a clear plastic pouch is a travel sized shampoo and conditioner and a volumizing spray. For other hair types there are sprays for other types of hair.

Credo Clean Beauty Discovery Kit ($59): For the holidays, there is a flood of gift baskets that people did not know they needed. Your office goes crazy because who knew they loved summer sausage as the woman in accounts payable. Despite how much you love the surprise of the gift basket, no one hopes for it (except me, send all Harry and David to me). Unlike the traditonal grab bag of a gift basket, this discovery kit is just that. In a simple canvas pouch is great travel sized luxury products (see, theme). There is a restorative Cleansing Balm from de Mamiel, Pai Calming Day Cream, Skin Owl Eye Cream, a mask from Tata Harper, Shampoo & Conditioner from Evolvh and Lovefresh Deodorant. The brands may not be household names, but then what would be discovered by trying everything in the pouch?
