Gift Guide: The Beauty Guru

Gifting can be complicated. Let's simplify it. We all have that person in our lives who seems to be obsessed with absolutely everything from beauty products to makeup to skincare...you name it. I have compiled a list of must-have, affordable beauty products for the ultimate Beauty Guru giftee.



I have always been a huge St. Tropez girl, but let me tell ya, after using these Self Tanning Drops, I have been converted to an Isle of Paradise girl. These drops are perfect for a giftee who self-tans or gets spray tans quite frequently. They are easy to use and work wonders on dull, winter skin (similar to mine). There are 3 different shades - light, medium, and dark. It is recommended that you go with whatever shade your giftee’s skin is normally, not the desired level of tan. For example, I am very pale, so I went with the “light” shade and I still get an amazing glow. In terms of use, the drops are suitable for use on both the face and body - they can be mixed with oils, serums, moisturizers, and foundation. I mix mine with my moisturizer for my face and lotion for my body!




This sampler is a perfect way to introduce collagen peptides into your giftee's everyday routine in convenient on-the-go packaging. It comes with 5 of the Vital Protein flavors - Original Collagen Peptides, Lavender Lemon Collagen Beauty Glow, Strawberry Lemon Collagen Beauty Glow, Marine Collagen, and Original Matcha Collagen. A few months ago, I started adding one scoop (½ of a serving) of the Vital Proteins Original Collagen Peptides to my coffee each morning and I have noticed that my body has reaped all the benefits of this product - hair growth, nail growth/strengthening, relief of joint and ligament aches, and improved skin elasticity. In addition to the Original Flavor, I also use the Original Matcha Collagen to make Matcha Lattes if I’m not up to my daily cup of coffee. I highly recommend this product, as it’s done wonders for my hair, skin, and nails personally :) 




This set is perfect for someone who loves skin-care! The set includes five of Origin’s most-loved masks - you could even split the set into multiple gifts for multiple people (hello stocking stuffers!). The masks are designed to target specific skin concerns, from oil control to clarity to overnight hydration. 



Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask (Limited Edition) $20


The Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask locks in moisture overnight and is great for dry, winter climates (like Pittsburgh). It comes in two limited edition flavors - Sweet Candy and Mint Chocolate. Highlighted ingredients include: Berry Mix Complex, which is rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants and Moisture Wrap Technology, which locks in moisture for long-lasting hydration.


Review: “I didn’t know I needed until I tried it and now I can’t live without it!"





I am going to be transparent - I have yet to try this CC cream, however, it has excellent reviews and I have friends who swear by this product. This limited edition gift set is the perfect gift to allow your giftee to test out this must-have product. Free of sulfates, parabens, and phthalates, your giftee will be ridden of fine lines and wrinkles, pores, dullness, and uneven texture through the use of this product. 


Reviews: “It makes your skin look flawless. Great product!”

“Looks natural, yet has the coverage you’re looking for.”



Happy gifting :) xo, Emily
