The problem with buying for beauty and makeup fans is the risk that they already own the latest products (thank the beauty influencers and Makeup Academy on social media for this). So now you have the dilemma of trying to buy something that they don’t already have.
The trick is to look out for new products from iconic brands such Urban Decay or Too Faced as they tend to release items during the countdown to Christmas.
There is also the option of investing in indie beauty brands, the ones that are quirky, independent and have fabulous products without the hefty price tag.
Verdict has done the work for you. Whether you are looking for something to really spoil, or just a little stocking filler, there is something for everyone and every budget. You can thank us once you’ve crossed each name off of your Christmas shopping list.
