Gift Guide

One of my favorite parts of the holiday season is the gift-giving.  I love spending time picking out something special for each person on my list to show them I thought of them, and seeing their face light up when they open it. It truly is better to give than receive!  I wanted to help you with your holiday shopping so I have created this gift guide to make things easier.  Whether you are looking for stocking stuffers, skin care, hair care, fashion or accessories, read on for my top picks of brands I use and adore.  (No brands have compensated me for being included in this guide.)  Happy shopping and happy holidays!
