Hi! It’s been a minute since I did a post. I didn’t do a Black Friday post- in all honesty there weren’t a ton of great sales worth posting about. So in exchange, I decided to do a last minute Gift Guide. I personally AM NOT someone who has their shopping done by Thanksgiving. I think most of the better sales happen closer to and even after Christmas, when retailers are trying to get rid of their stock. So here are my picks for last minute gifts! Also… The majority of these suggestions are premium beauty, hair and skincare based. Also I made it easy for you…ALL from Amazon and will ship before Christmas If you are reading this post on the day I released it. Happy shopping!

Let’s kick off this post with a product I may never stop using now that finally had the chance to try it. The LANEIGE Water Sleeping Mask by the Korean Beauty favorite is a must have. It’s packed with hyaluronic acid, probiotics, squalane and niacinamide. I use it every single night at the end of my skincare routine to lock all the moisture in. I found this Dream Skin Trio gift set on Amazon.com which contains the viral Sleeping Mask, Cica Sleeping Mask and their Bouncy and Firm Sleeping Mask. This is a great value for all three if you’re interested in trying more Korean beauty products.

“What is this luxury and bougie scent you’re wearing?!” I’m not joking when I say I’ve been told this multiple times by strangers in public. I was once at the post office and I was stopped in my tracks by someone who wanted the name of the luxury perfume. All I had on was the SOL DE JANEIRO Delicia Drench Body Butter, also known as Scent 59. Wear this alone or layer it with another perfume. This SOL DE JANEIRO Jet Set | Travel Shower Kit on Amazon.com is perfect for someone who already loves the scent or wants to try it. It comes with the body butter, the body mist and shower oil.

I am a long time user of Moroccan Oil brand and their products. The smell is instant exotic luxury. I have this exact set that I like to travel with.

Trust me on this when I say men need and want good skincare too! I first found this set at a pharmacy at a train station in Paris. I was looking for last minute treasures to take home. I bought this set for my husband, and he ended up really liking it. I was excited to see I can now purchase it on amazon- Although I wouldn’t mind finding myself in Paris again ;).

Next up is a cult favorite- the OSEA Bodycare Best Sellers Skincare Set. This is a set I actually plan on buying for myself. I like to travel with my own hair and body care instead of using the low quality and very drying free toiletries most hotels supply. This set contains all travel sized products.

Another cult favorite and also very nostalgic to me, the Aveda Purifying Rosemary Mint Shampoo and Conditioner Set. I was a student and graduated from the Aveda Institute when I decided to pursue my Esthetics License. It was just a fun time in my life and we as students were gifted a ton of Aveda products while in school. This was one of my favorites. It’s a great gift for anyone and the Rosemary Mint scent really wakes you up in the shower when you need it the most on a cold winter morning.

I’ve mentioned this before- I don’t gate keep. With that being said when people ask why our house smells like a luxury hotel, I show them the link to this AirScent Waterless Diffuser. We bought this the first week we moved into our house here in Arlington, Virginia before any of our stuff from Germany made its way here. I worked a long time in the luxury market, and I can tell you most of my workplaces had one of these to pump luxury scents in the air to create an ambiance for our clients.

As far as the scents go- you can order the oils here. I recommend buying the sampler to try the different ones to your liking. When you find the right scent for you, you can order the large bottle of the oil which will last MONTHS. Our favorite is the Westin Hotel scent for reference.

Last but not least, this is the perfect gift for someone who travels a lot or plans on traveling. One thing I don’t like is hauling all of my different hair tools in a suitcase, which can add a lot of weight. After living in Europe for three years, I learned to pack light and I mean my money depended on it (Ryan Air and train rides!) My best friend swears by this 3-1 curling wand set by WavyTalk which comes with a straightener attachment, the curler and the blow drying brush attachment.
I hope you enjoyed this post! Don’t ever feel bad about doing last minute shopping. December is a busy month! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
