Who doesn’t love loading up on beauty booty during the holidays, whether it’s treating yourself or someone on your holiday list. But shopping for beauty products can get overwhelming.
Here are some “works for everyone” options to help you pick the perfect present.
Bobbi Brown
Gwyneth Paltrow, Demi Moore, Hilary Duff and Rachel Bilson are all fans of Bobbi Brown. The Mini Bobbi Brights Palette is the perfect gift for the girl who loves to experiment with makeup, as well as the person who wants a lot of options in a small package. It features 20 eye shadow shades in a small compact that’s perfect for your purse or for traveling. There are pretty pastels, bright colors and rich eyeliner shades and it comes with a brush. $70 at www.bobbibrowncosmetics.com.
