When I was a kid, I loved opening my stocking. Me and my siblings were allowed to open the stocking as soon as we woke up and before breakfast was made. It was the perfect preview to the main event. Now that I’m an adult I still love my stocking, not because of the candy and toys I might get but because some of the best beauty treats are perfect for stocking stuffers.
This is why I’ve put together a list of some of my favorite stocking stuffers that I plan to give to my friends and family.
LORAC EYE PALETTES
LORAC make some of the best eye shadows on the market which is why I’m so thrilled they are introducing two new palettes – Black Tie Attire and Tails & Top Hats – just in time for black friday. Not only are these palettes perfect for the stocking but at $15 you can get one (or both) for you AND whomever’s stocking they are going into.

TOO FACED NAUGHTY KISSES & SWEET CHEEKS
Too Faced has some of the BEST holiday gifts sets on the market this season but one of my favorite is the Naughty Kisses and Sweet Cheeks set as it’s meant for gifting to more than one person. The set contains three mini Love Flush Long Lasting 16-Hour Blush in Crazy In Love, Baby Love, Dream Lover AND Lip Injection Ultimate Lip Plumper, Lip Injection Glossy lip gloss in Milkshake, Like a Boss (deluxe sizes). The whole set retails for $36 but it is three gifts in one set so it’s still a great bargain.

DRYBAR MERRY MINI MUST-HAVES
Perfect for any jetsetter in your life (or family members who traveled in the for the holidays) is this set of travel-size favorites from DryBar. The set contains Detox Dry Shampoo and Conditioner and a Triple Sec 3-in-1. Breakup the set for give it all as one, I’ll leave that up to you.

SOL DE JANEIRO BRAZILIAN BEAUTY ON THE GO
If you’ve never smelled or used the amazing Brazilian Bum Bum Cream well now is your chance. The Brazilian Beauty on the Go kit contains a mini version of the famed Bum Bum Cream and a lip butter. No better way to ring in the New Year than by smelling like a tropical vacation.

YES TO…SHEET MASKS
Sheet masks might seem like an odd item to include in as a stocking stuffer but trust me, if the person on the receiving end of that stocking is skincare obsessed they will love you. The Yes To… masks are not just super affordable ($2.99 each) but deliver amazing results. My favorites are the Yes To…Tomatoes to help with acne and Yes To…Coconuts to deliver a mega dose of hydration.
