Baby Foot Original Deep
Exfoliation for Feet Peel
($25)
I am that weirdo that loves pimple
popping videos and pictures of nasty
skin ailments, so Baby Foot’s exfoliating
peel is right up my alley. In the same
wonderfully gross vein, in less than one week, your feet
start shedding like snakes revealing the glorious, healthy
skin beneath. It’s so legit! Your feet will be the envy of
all. Don’t spend endless hours and hard-earned cash
on your tootsies at the nail salon. This budget-friendly
treatment promises to uncover soft, beautiful feet. The
peeling process is the satisfying part!
Magnetic False Eyelashes (varies)
year round, ipsy is great for teenagers and professionals
alike. College students to great-grandmothers can
appreciate each month’s featured glam bag design filled
with sample-sized, quality products assembled just to
your liking.
Similarly, Scentbird is a 30-day supply of designer fragrance
selected individually or chosen based on your scent
preferences. I’ve always wanted a substantial perfume
assortment, but that’s an expensive endeavor. Scentbird
is just the right amount and at a reasonable price point.
Gift Cards (varies)
Opening a gift card might not have the same theatrical
effect as a 10-year-old opening a new bike on Christmas,
but it’s truly the greatest gift of all. You’re giving someone
the opportunity to buy themselves exactly what they want!
So many people default to gift cards to chain restaurants,
Targets, Kohls, etc.. Why not MAC, Ulta, or Sephora?
Instead of helping someone buy a bloomin’ onion or some
groceries, treat them to something that is both exciting
and useful.
Magnetic eyelashes are weird science. Two halves of a
falsie sandwiching natural lashes to create a seamless,
dramatic look. Cancel Wednesday’s lash appointment
because magnetic lashes are the cheaper alternative to the
costly extension procedure. Just be careful to delicately
slide the magnets from your lashes to avoid plucking them
out like feathers. Eye irritation from glue is a thing of the Whether giving or receiving, I hope these ideas are fun for

find that perfect something - but if you catch yourself at
Farsali Jelly Beam Highlighter ($40) an Ulta having broken out in a cold sweat, head for the
This loose, jelly-like highlighter has caught the beauty gift cards. After all, what beauty addict doesn’t love the
world’s attention. Go subtle or striking with Jelly Beam; gift of shopping?
either way the glow is unreal. It packs a seriously blinding
punch, and who doesn’t like a little jiggle?! It’s basically a
liquid sunset in a jar. So gorgeous! It has been selling out
almost everywhere, so if you can find it, buy it! If not for
yourself, then for that diva you know who pops a killer
highlight on the regular. The fact that this
product performs above expectations
and isn’t just gimmicky makes it
a breath of fresh air, especially in a
market of highlighters that constantly
overpromise and under-deliver.
ipsy/Scentbird ($10-$15/month)
I never tried so many great, lesser-known products before
I got on a monthly beauty subscription. I’ve tried a lot
of them, and in my opinion ipsy is the strongest in this
category - hands down. It may not be the most exhilarating
