If your beauty lover is anything like me, they are PICKY… They know what they like, what they don’t, what is not-so-hot quality, and what those must-have items are. It can be a struggle to find something they’ll for sure love, but lucky for you – I’ve pretty much tried and tested it all and have thrown all my favorites together! 🙂
- Shine Cosmetics – Honestly, you really can’t go wrong with anything from here.. I will say that the lip velvet and gloss are up to even the pickiest beauty standards — because I helped create them! I also love their BB cream, blush sticks + other stuff too!
- Red Aspen – There are sooo many Red Aspen products I seriously love! I fell in love with R.A. because of the nail dashes, but I have since madly fallen in love with their eyeshadow palettes. I use the fulfilled artistry palette every single day! Your beauty guru will definitely want nail dashes + brush on glue, though. They also recently dropped their tanning line, it’s made with the cleanest ingredients and smells amazing. The tanning drops do take a couple applications before you see the results you’re wanting but it’s worth it!!
- Tula Eye Balm – These are the best at combating those terrible under eye bags all of us women seem to carry around.. I love these things.. I don’t really have a favorite one but this set is a crazy good deal! My code: TARATHUESON stacks with anything on the site.
- DIME Eyebrow + Lash Serum – Seriously, nothing ever worked for my lashes without burning out my eyes except for this stuff! They just came out with a brow serum/gel combo that is also fantastic. I highly recommend this, swapping to products with clean ingredients is so worth it. My code: TARA20 will give you 20% off, even on discounted sets!
- Eye Mask – This is the only one I’ve found that works with long lashes or lash extensions without smooshing them!
- Silk Eye Mask – If you don’t have to worry about lashes, this is the best sleep mask!
- Zit Patches – These are the best for those pesky zits you can feel coming!! These are a clean beauty item.
- Sly Makeup Case – This makeup case is the best. It holds full size products standing up vs. laying them on their sides to leak!! Code TARA15 will save you a bit 🙂
- Soon Eye Patches – if you can get these on a good deal, like these are at QVC they’re sooo worth it. I leave them in the fridge to help with puffiness.
- Face Masks – I think we are allll over these masks, BUT, these ones don’t cause mask-ne and they’re super light and breathable.
- Tarte Juicy Lips – I really can’t describe it better than juicy lips.. haha. It makes your lips look all moisturized and juicy!! This set is on a major sale.
- Isle of Paradise Tanning Drops – These are my all time favorite tanning drops. They’re running the supersize deal on QVC right now! 🙂
- Tubing Mascara – I have a lot of favorites, but DIME has one that’s a clean beauty version and I’m going to swap over to that. My favorites are all linked on THIS blog post, though.
- Makeup Pouches – These are super handy to keep in your purse (or travel with) and see what is in them when you need something quickly.
- Bow Scrunchies – These are the cutest for a quick messy bun or pony!
- Hair Towels – Anyyyyy beauty guru will appreciate hair that dries a heck of a lot quicker with one of these. Cutting time out a morning routine is the best.
- Silk Pillow Case – The best way to avoid acne while you sleep! My girls + I use these.
- Skin Food – This is something you can find at a drugstore that actually is super high quality! I’m a big fan of not paying more when you don’t have to.
- Glossier Perfume – This is one of my favorite scents.. I left it in St. George and I fell back in love with it when I was down there last.
- Dyson Airwrap – I know it’s spendy, but… If I could only buy one hair tool ever, it would be this one. It replaces a bunch of them!
- Cuticle Oil – This is kinda expensive but it will last you foreverrrrr. I’ve had the same one for so long!! I apply it every time I do my nail dashes.
- St. Tropez Tanning Mousse – My all time favorite tanning mousse.. QVC has the two for the price of one deal happening!
- Tassi – this is the ultimate for washing your face without getting your hair all through it.
- Mac Paint Pot – This is a great eyeshadow primer, I use it under my Red Aspen eyeshadow everyday. I like the color soft orchre or painterly.
- Geometry Towel Wash Cloths – These are just as amazing as the tea towels.
- Billie Wonder Wipes – For those nights you just want to go to bed and don’t want to wash your face.. these are the best to keep by your bed!
- ELEMIS Cleansing Balm – I love this stuff, my friend Rachel got me hooked. QVC has the trio set on MAJOR sale all month, plus use a new email and code HOLIDAY for an extra $15 off your purchase.. It’ll look like a big gift, inexpensive!!
- ELEMIS Marine Cream – I honestly have no idea how QVC hasn’t sold out of this Black Friday deal yet.. it’s so good! I love the marine cream. You get two full size marine creams and a trial size of the overnight matrix! It’s a $330 deal for $99.. plus a new email and code HOLIDAY will get you $15 off!!
- Whipped Exfoliating Mask – This is the first of DIME’s skincare I’ve dived into and I loved it!
- Laneige Lip Mask – Say bye, bye forever to dry lips.. This stuff is the best. I put it on every single night and in the morning my lips are still nice and moisturized. It’s a little expensive for how much you get, but it’s on sale here on amazon + it will last you for soooo long.
