Stocking Stuffers - The best little things to fit in a stocking.

Gift Certificates - What to get and where to get them.
Gift Certificates - What to get and where to get them.
So ladies, when these posts come out. Forward them to your men in your life. This will help them out!
I am mostly going to send you to an online retailer. Even though you can go to a physical store. I have found that online retailers offer even better deals and free shipping then what is available in the stores. But by all means if you don't like shopping online. Go to the store if they have a store front. But to me nothing is more fun then getting something in the mail! OK, so here we go with the first blog!
Get More for Your Moola! Gift sets and getting the most for your money:
This time of year there is never a shortage of gift ideas. And all of the makeup brands start rolling out special deals and gift sets. But not all brands and sets are created equal. Here are my TOP picks for quality, value, and biggest impression.
BH Cosmetics 120 Color Palettes. You can pretty much bet that any palette from BH Cosmetics is going to be a winner. But in particular their 120 color palettes are the best value. They come in 4 different additions, have a huge range of highly pigmented color, and are in a sleek black case. Why not get all 4 and really surprise her? These are often on sale during the holiday season pretty consistently and they offer free shipping on orders over $50. Regularly $29.95-34.95. http://www.bhcosmetics.com/
MAC Cosmetics Ice Parade Bags and Kits. 10 kits total to pick from, ranging from lips, to brushes, to eyeshadows. All perfectly arranged to compliment each other. Also be on the look out for their holiday special edition gift sets. They have not released them yet. But they usually offer a variety of travel sized products in pretty packaging. If they have a variety set of pigments, run out and get those as fast as you can! Retail $36-49.50. http://www.maccosmetics.com/ or Nordstom stores. 
Sephora by OPI Glimmer Wonderland 18pc Mini Nail Colour Set. OMG 18 mini sizes of OPI's fabulous nail colors are sure to fit any mood. It includes some of their bestsellers, trend shades, and basics. So much fun! $84 value, get it for $48. http://www.sephora.com/
Sephora Favorites. Now, there is a bunch of these available at http://www.sephora.com/. Some focus on lips, mascaras, fragrances, or bestsellers. But if you don't know the brand she uses, this is a great option. Each kit features Sephora's brands that they carry in the store in sample sizes. It's a great opportunity to try something new! All under $75.
