Holiday Gift Ideas for Everyone on Your List

Monday, October 23, 2017

Last year, you started you Christmas shopping late and panic bought all of your presents. We all know how that turned out: lower quality gifts, too much money spent and a super stressed out you. You regretted it so much, you vowed that this year would be different. This year, you'd actually start earlier. 2017 cruised by and suddenly you hear Mariah Carey's 'All I want for Christmas Is You' everywhere, this could only mean one thing: it's October. Yikes! It's not yet too late though, you still got two months left. These Christmas gift ideas for everyone that you love will help you get on your feet!

Gift Ideas for your Mom:

You love her to bits, and if anyone deserves to receive something fabulous this year, it's definitely her. You owe her that much. 

She'll love:
An iconic fragance worthy for a woman of her importance;
A beauty oil to keep her good looks you inherited;
A tube of hair mask cause mom's hair should always be perfect;
Cute watch gift set to help her stay fashionable and on time while running errands;
Himalayan crystal salt lamp cause it'd be a great addition to her room;
Head to Toe Beauty Routine Box from Althea to take care of her beauty woes from head to toe;
A super fun apron to let her know how much you appreciate her cooking;

Gift Ideas for your Dad:

Dad has always been the number one man in your life. A great Christmas gift is the perfect way to let him know. 

He'll love: 
A comfortable pair of shoes he can also show off to his friends;
A masculine fragrance he can wear everyday that your mom won't get enough of;
A vanity kit/skincare set, your mom will thank you for it;
A sleek alcohol flask to match the stylish gentleman that he is;
His favorite liquor cause as far as dad is concerned, you can never go wrong with alcohol;

Gift Ideas for your Sister:

You've been through childish banter and petty fights during your younger days but as you grew up, she became your role model. She is your go-to person when you need advise, may it be about your career or just about what shade of lipstick to buy. Show her how much you appreciate her by giving her a bunch of pretty things this holiday season. She'll probably let you borrow them anyway.

She'll love: 
A neutral eye shadow palette (like L'Oreal's Color Riche La Palette Nude)   to amp up her daily make up look;
Benefit Cosmetics highlighter gift set cause you know how much she loves looking like a million bucks;
The Body Shop Drops of Youth Serum to keep her youthful looking skin;
A trusty foundation like L'Oreal Paris Infallible Pro-Matte 24HR Foundation so she won't worry about oily Tzones;
A stylish yet practical handbag for a classy woman with an on the go schedule like her;
Trendy  Fenty slippers, she'll feel like a princess with these fluffy slippers by Rihanna herself;
Petitfee Gold & EGF Eye & Spot Patch cause no one really likes panda eyes that much;
A classic bracelet that would match all her outfits;


Gift Ideas for your Brother:

He's the one person who you're sure will look out for your well-being, even if it means scaring off potential boyfriends. Let him know you appreciate this gesture(maybe not so much for the scaring off boyfriends part) by getting him a thoughtful give these holidays.

He'll love:
A travel pillow so he knows you worry about him while he's going wandering about, exploring the world;
A sporty decorative pillow cause you know he'll love to have this in his living room;
A roomy sling bag he can put all his man essentials in;
An electric shaver to lessen the time he spends prepping his 'stache;
A passport holder because you never forgot the time he lost his boarding pass;
Hair products cause the man is almost just as vain as you;

Gift Ideas for your Aunt:


Your mom's great but let's admit, your aunt's cooler. If you had a second mother, it would be her. Give her a Christmas present that's a cool as her.

She'll love:
A fun scarf to keep the aunt vibes going;

A sweet smelling body mist that'll remind her of you;

Sandals she can wear so she can shop for groceries comfortably;

Gift Ideas for your Bestfriend:


You've been through thick and thin together, witnessed all the heartbreak, successes and even that ugly haircut you sported in high school. She's your best friend and she deserves the best as well. 

She'll love:

A trendy new bag(like just about anything from Anello) that's flexible enough for every possible activity in her schedule;
Althea Petal Velvet Powder to keep the oiliness at bay while smelling like a bouquet of flowers
