Blogmas 2014 Day 22: Stocking Stuffer Ideas

Blogmas 2014 Day 22: Stocking Stuffer Ideas!

Blogmas 2014 List

Wow... the days are counting down fast. I already posted a Stocking Stuffer guide for my Holiday 2014 Gift Guide which you can check out HERE if you'd like. But! I thought I'd throw in even more stocking stuffer ideas! I've rounded up some more small sized gifts that are perfect for stockings and don't need to be wrapped up!

DryBar Hold Me Hair Clips ($16.00) 

These are perfect for any woman who uses a hot tool on a regular bases to straighten, curl, flip or blow dry their hair. These large mouth clips hold large amounts of hair sections in place so you can style the other sections.

Sephora Collection Face Masks ($6.00) 

These masks come in different types depending the on the needs of different skin types from oily, ance prone, dehydrated, dull to sensitive skin! All you do is put the fiber mask on, wait 15 to 20 minutes and you take it off. Great gift idea for a girls night in!

Too Faced Batter Than Sex Mascara ($23.00)

I have completely fallen in love with this mascara myself! It gives great volume and length to lashes. The brush head is large enough to fully coat all lashes, including the bottom lashes!

Beauty Blender Micro ($17.95)

These little guy are just like their bigger version, the original beauty blender, except they are smaller for blending out concealer underneath the eyes, around the nose, mouth, and other parts of the face. They are always great for blending out liquid contouring.

Sally Hanson Salon Effects ($6.00 - $9.00)

We all love paint our finger nails, including myself, but the mess and mistakes I make are terrible, so I end up going to the salon or finding some other way to get my nails to look pretty. These are real nail polish strips that come in a huge variety of different colors, patterns, and designs. They are easily to apply, remove, and wear.

Smashbox Step-by-Step Contour Kit ($45.00)

This small compact contour kit has three perfect shades for any skin tone to use for contouring the cheeks, nose, brow bone, and other places for desired high lighting and contouring. It comes with a angled fluffy brush and is the perfect size palette for traveling with or using everyday.

Tangle Teezer Original ($13.00)

I know I'm not the only one who hates tangles in my hair in the morning or after I wash hair... it's annoying and down right painful trying to get them out! I discovered this tool a few months back and I believe every woman should have this in her life, especially if she has long hair or easily tangled hair. This brush gets tangles out in seconds with no pain or tearing hair and can used on dry or wet hair!

Sephora Collection Eyelash Curler ($13.00)

I know... $13 for an eyelash curler?! Believe me, I know it's a bit much, but I absolutely love this eyelash curler next to my trusty Sally Hanson ones. This gives amazing curved lashes that any woman would love to have. These eyelash curlers come in different colors and extra spare curler cushion replacements.

I hope I helped with some more stocking stuffer ideas for you all!

Mophie Juice Pack Powerstation Duo External Battery ($99.00)

This bad boy is an awesome buddy to have around, especially for us women who are always on our phone! Whether it be for personal, work or family related phone use, if you know a woman who is a heavy user of her phone for different reasons (such as myself), a portable charger is a great option since she can connect her phone and it'll charge wherever she is. This can fully charge any mobile device or tablet with a USB cable twice.

Mia2 Skin Cleansing System ($149.00)

Getting a Clarisonic is a more personal gift if you know of someone who suffers from troubled skin and has gone above and beyond to cope and deal with it. I, myself, suffer from troubled skin and resorted to ridiculous ways to help my skin. Getting a clarisonic for any woman you know takes care of her skin is a great gift, as these are not only great for troubled skin, but for any skin for that matter!

Sonic Radiance Brightening Solution Kit ($249.00)

Doesn't every woman what bright and radiant skin without spending a fortune? Well now she can! This system is targeted towards uneven skin tone and dark spots to achieve more youthful and radiant skin. And, it works the same way as a Clarisonic!
