Christmas Gift Guide - Online at Raww, DB. Bhave, Nu Skin, Oil Garden, Arbonne, Lovebyt and Medik8

So, by the time you're reading this, it's already the 9th of December, which means that you only really have about 15 days left to shop. That's right, we're only about 2 weeks away from Christmas, which means that if you haven't already done your shopping, then it's about time to get your butt in gear! This year, my gift guide is going to be a little different, in that I'm featuring products that you can find in different shops, just so that if you're freaking out, and panic shopping, you can at least duck into the stores that you're familiar with, and gather up items that are featured here! So, read on, get inspired and get shopping!

Let's talk about the online shops that you can hit first, because some of these places have a cut off date for shopping, and that's getting a little closer with each passing day! Head to Raww for the vegan, cruelty free babe in your life and give them the gift of gentle skincare!

I feel like they've really gone all out this year, while still keeping their prices within a very reasonable limit. With every kit coming in under $40, you can just about buy one for them, and one for yourself. I especially love the SUPER Glowy Skincare Set, because you can reuse that pouch for all of your makeup needs, AND there's also the inclusion of the eye mask that you can keep in the fridge to help keep your eye bags at bay. Also, you can pick up the pouch on it's own, if you'd rather fill it with handpicked goodies. Add one of those candles to round out the package, and you're absolutely gravy!

If it's makeup their little heart desires, then you can zip over to the Designer Brands site to check out what they have on offer, and this year, baby, the giving is gonna be good! All gift sets come in at under $30, including this 16 piece In The Clouds eyeshadow palette! You can also pick up their Enchanted 5 piece brush set, which is such good value (I have some of their brushes and I love, love, love them), or that Starlight Illuminating Kit for that glow getter in your life. And, if you're striking out for stocking stuffer ideas, grab a Diamond Dust Shimmer Powder, because a little glitter is always necessary!

While we're thinking about stocking stuffers, why not think outside the box for brands that you don't come across very often, so that you can help someone else expand their beauty library? Dabble in brands like Nu Skin, which has an amazingly wide range of products, including this mask, or Oil Garden, which I love and use, and has products that you need in everyday life. And for elevating that everyday life product, how about trying some Lovebyt? You never know when you might be giving them the gift of an amazing product, which might then evolve into being a holy grail, or hero product, that they can't do without 

And finally, while you're online, make sure you pick up a fancy little kit or two for yourself, just to help you destress from the hard work that Christmas shopping is. Buy a little treat from my favourite haircare brand, Bhave, and make sure you reach for the kit that targets the concerns that you have. This box negates the need for wrapping (score one for Mother Earth!), and loving it means that you'll use it all up - no losers in the crowd!

If you're up for the fun of picking and choosing your own kit, which can be really rewarding, so that you can tailor it to the needs of the person, and show them that you know their skin type, and want to give them what's best, then hopping onto Arbonne online may just be the right way to go! There is something for everyone with Arbonne, and their Bio-Hydra range is at the top of my list to help with all the dryness from the recent fires and weather.

And finally, proving that good things come in small packages, Medik8 has you covered for all things beautiful skin. Medik8 has effective, stunning skincare that's worth every penny (trust me on this one - I have a few converts on my hands), and I remain ceaselessly enamored with them. Their discovery kits will give you a taste of all the good things they offer, and have you running back for more, more, more with them! This way, you won't be saddling someone (ie yourself) with a full sized product for the full sized price, just in case it doesn't agree with your skin, or you don't end up absolutely loving it.

Let me know what online stores you've hit, and tag me on Instagram to show me what you end up buying! Stay tuned for another gift guide coming up soon - you'll definitely be wanting to lay your peepers on the next lot!
