All I want for Christmas are all the gifts from Neiman Marcus! No but seriously, sign me up. If you’ve browsed Neiman’s gift page you’ll find there really is something for everyone and at every price point. For me I always find it the hardest to gift my closest girlfriends. I’m blessed with a lot of them and I want to treat them to something special and different every year. If you’re in the same boat, don’t fret! I’ve rounded up some of my favorite gifts for your bff. Also some of them you might want to put on your Christmas wish list too. Did someone say YSL card holder? Yes, please!

Beauty gifts are always a winner! Personally, Iove to give beauty gifts of either products that my gf’s know and love OR products that I’ve tested and think they would also enjoy.  Laura Mercier’s Caviar Sticks are what eyeshadow/liner combo dreams are made of.  I’ve turned on so many friends to them through birthday and holiday gifts. The mini pack also makes for a great stocking stuffer. Another set that may be a “one for me, one for you” situation is this Clinique Supercharged Skin set. The first time I ever realized the power of Vitamin C was when I tried Clinique’s Fresh Pressed Vitamin C cleanser. I swear you will see results within 5 -7 days; it’s incredible for all skin types including again skin (my mom loves!). Like I mentioned, it’s great for any babe in your life maybe even one who need to give their skin a little TLC or is just starting their skincare regimen.

Other beauty gifts that I love: KNC Beauty Lip Masks, Tata Harper Glow Getter (great for friends that are V into clean beauty), and the Bobbi Brown Nude Lipstick set (so many other great Bobbi Brown sets, too!)

Want to talk about the gift that keeps on giving? Nest Candles! The two best scents for the holidays are: Holiday + Birchwood Pine. Honestly, they just smell like Christmas and create such a great nostalgic feeling. I don’t know a single person who doesn’t love ‘em. 

EDP Trick: break up the Laura Mercier Mini Caviar Stick Pack , Lip Masks, Bobbi Brown Lipsticks and the Nest Candle packs and make little gift bags for a few girlfriends. Throw in a bottle of wine and tah-dah!

If you’re looking for a real splurge gift for your #1 BFF a YSL card holder is classic and such a treat. I’ve had mine for years and it holds up so nicely!

Wishing you happy gifting over the next month! xx - Ash
