Christmas stockings are one of my favorite Christmas traditions. Maybe it’s because that’s where I get the basic things I often overlook or the best candy options, or it’s because I am a sucker for a themed gift. Either way, I love a good Christmas stocking situation. And today I’m bringing you 35 beauty stocking stuffer ideas.
And in the spirit of loving themed gifts, I categorized these into 7 categories: (hero basics, lip gifts, face gifts, eye gifts, hair gifts, nail gifts, and body gifts.) So you can gift by the category or mix and match. Either way, these beauty stocking stuffers are sure to be a hit.
- Hand Sanitizer* – ‘Tis the season for keeping the germs away! I really like the Touchland hand sanitizers*, partially because the scents aren’t too offensive like some others.
- Tweezers* – I’m partial to my Tweezerman tweezers, but any quality (i.e.: sharp) tweezers will do.
- Eyelash Curler/Refill Pads* – Curling your lashes is one way to wake up your entire face, even without any makeup. And I honestly believe the tool in this case makes a difference. My favorite eyelash curler* is from Shiseido. I like, for the shape of my eye, it curls every lash, not just the middle or outer lashes. Plus I love being able to repurchase replacement pads instead of having to buy a brand new tool every time.
- Makeup Eraser Towels* – My favorite makeup removing method on extra sleepy nights. This set* is nice because you can either use the smaller size for travel or use a new towel each day and then pop them in the wash at the end of the week. (You may be interested in this review.)
- Pencil Sharpener* – I can’t count how many times I’ve been without a pencil sharpener when I needed one. I like to have a couple on hand, just in case. So I’m sure your beauty lover would appreciate it as well.
- Nudestix Nude + Red Mini Set* – How cute is this little red and nude lip set? I’d love this in my stocking on Christmas morning!
- Tower 28 Milky Lip Jelly* – These glosses are seriously so good.
- Farmacy Honey Butter Lip Balm* – My favorite lip balm at the moment!
- Marvis Toiletries Kit* – I type this hoping that one day we’ll be able to travel again. But when I do, I don’t like to just have a random collection of travel sized products. I like to be comfortable and use the things I use at home when I travel. I really enjoy the Marvis toothpaste, and this little set comes with a wooden brush too!
- Fresh Sugar Wonder Drops* – I’ve spoken about these a little bit before, and I think they’ll be appreciated by any beauty lover. They’re amazing for a quick exfoliating treatment for the lip.
- Jade Roller*- Little but mighty. Check out this post for the reasons I love my jade roller.
- MAC Glow Play Blush* – Blush is such a fun gift to give, and it’s one of the less personal face products you can give. I am obsessed with the Glow Play blushes. The texture is fun. And the product itself is such a natural looking, glowy blush formula.
- Makeup Sponge* – You can never have too many backup sponges. And the Real Techniques sponges are my favorite these days.
- Hourglass Veil Setting Powder Mini*– One of the most beautiful powders I have used in a while.
- Solid Brush Cleaner* – I know too many people who don’t wash their brushes, and I cringe. The solid brush cleanser from Beauty Blender makes it so easy.
- Eye Masks* – Who doesn’t love to be pampered? Try pampering your beauty lover with high quality eye masks.
- SEPHORA Uncomplicated Eye Brush Set* – I don’t recommend brush sets as often as I do individual brushes, because often there are brushes most people will never use. I like this one, though. As the name suggests, it’s uncomplicated, and I feel like each brush will be useful, even to a beginner.
- Cotton Swabs* – I always like to have cotton swabs in my beauty kit. They’re great for eye clean up.
- ELF Bite Sized Eyeshadow Palettes* – I’m obsessed with these Bite Size palettes from Elf. I haven’t talked much about them on the blog yet, but I use them constantly offline. And they’re only THREE DOLLARS.
- SEPHORA Color Switch* – This is a game changer. So many times you do eye looks using multiple colors, need a clean brush, and don’t have one. I love the Color Switch to simply clean off the color from the brush in between washes.
- Wet Brush* – I got a Wet Brush a few years ago, and now I can’t bring myself to use anything else. It doesn’t tangle in my hair and I see less fall out when I use this brush.
- Silk Scrunchies* – I like scrunchies over elastic hair ties to prevent any tight kinks in my hair. But I’m especially biased toward silk scrunchies. Not only does the fabric feel lux, it protects the hair from breakage even more.
- Bobby Pins* – Trust me, they need another pack of bobby pins.
- Headbands* – I’m not super into hair accessories, but I have been on a headband kick. I love this blue, braided option for a small pop of color.
- Moroccan Oil Hair Treatment *– Hair oils are my favorite for adding softness and shine to the ends of my hair. I love the Light version of the Moroccan Oil treatment for that reason, plus it smells amazing.
- Amope Pedi Perfect* – Not the sexiest gift, but definitely one that I love and use on the reg. for soft feet.
- imPress Press On Nails* – There are so many cute designs!
- Nail Decals* – And for the gal who doesn’t love a fake nail, some nail stickers are also a good option!
- Manicure Kit* – This is one of those generic gifts everyone gets, but also one we all use for years.
- Olive and June Dry Drops – At-home manicure game changer! These drops cut down on drying time, and I can’t paint my nails at home without them.
- Temporary Tattoos – Gifting to someone who either loves tattoos but won’t get or wants one but can’t decide if they’ll like it (I’m in the latter category,) try sticking a few temporary tattoos into their stockings this year.
- Silicone Face Mask Brush* – These silicone brushes for face masks are underrated in my opinion. They help keep germs out of your mask tubs by keeping your hands out of the product. And they will help with the mess that some masks can make.
- Dr. Teals Epsom Salt Bath Set* – I love the Dr. Teals sets that release during the holidays. This one comes with all of the best Dr. Teals bath goodies including an epsom salt soak, foaming bath, shower gel, sleep spray, and body oil.
- Native Deodorant* – My favorite solid natural deodorant. They have so many good scents, and there’s even a trial sized set* if you’re gifting to a natural deodorant newbie! (My favorite: Lavender & Rose)
- Ouai Chill Pill Bath Bombs* – These bath bombs leave your skin so hydrated and soft and smell amazing. It creates the most spa like experience right in your bathroom.
What do Christmas stockings look like in your house? Is it a free for all or another way to sneak in a good themed gift? Hopefully these 35 beauty stocking stuffers give you a little gifting inspiration.
