Budget Friendly Gift Guide

I actually wasn't planning on doing a gift guide this year because every blogger and her mom is doing one. We are also taking it easy on the gifts this year because both mine and Joe's families are coming to stay with us over the holidays and it would just be crazy if everyone tried to pack gifts for 20 people in their suitcases!

But since so many of you requested this post I thought I would put together some ideas for you guys! Almost everything on this list is under $100 and most of the items are under $50! There is something for everyone including what I got for Joe (he got it early because, Black Friday). Several of the items on the list are on sale as well! Feel free to share this post with your loved ones as a *hint ;)

SAFER BEAUTY GIFTS

I couldn't do a gift guide without sharing my favorite Beautycounter gift sets! This year they have tons of amazing collections under $100.

For the skincare lovers the Best of Beautycounter Collection is an absolute steal! For just $89 it includes the bestselling Cleansing Balm, the Allure Best of Beauty winner Brightening Facial Oil, the breakthrough Countermatch Adaptive Moisturizer, and my personal ride or die product, the Balancing Charcoal Mask!

For all the mommas on your list our Instant Awakening Trio would be well received! It includes our Resurfacing Peel, Cooling Eye Masks, and our Instant Glow Illuminating Cream which is an amazing multi purpose product! i.e. primer, moisturizer, illuminator etc.

One of my FAVORITE sets this year is our Shimmer and Shine Body Set. It contains our Lemongrass Sugar Body Scrub (which basically smells like lemon cookies and you'll want to eat it up), Citrus Mimosa Body Butter and our Glow Shimmer Oil which is the perfect way to add color to your pasty white winter legs! This is a set to truly spoil someone with products that they will absolutely LOVE but probably wouldn't buy for themselves!

For the men in your life give him an exclusive preview of our all-new Counterman collection. Perfectly packed for holiday gifting and any kind of escape, this kit includes trial-size versions of four men’s skin care and shave essentials—all tucked into a sleek limited-edition Dopp kit.

GIFTS FOR HER

This Cozy Chunky Knit Beanie is perfect for cold winter days!

These Super Cozy Ugg Slippers will be a crowd fave and for under $50 you can't beat the deal!!

The older I get the more Snuggly Blankets I feel like I need. This one will not disappoint!

I have had this Curling Wand for years and I absolutely love it!

The cutest Travel Tote for under $20!

GIFTS FOR HIM

This cologne is made without harmful ingredients and still smells amazing!

Whenever I see cufflinks now I picture the scene in The Office where Andy throws his cufflinks off to show that he's not so fancy... Anyways these are great ones and they're under $50.

Help him track his water intake with this super cool Smart Waterbottle!

We all own one of These Backpacks and they're so durable and perfect for travel!

This Turntable is a bit of a splurge but my hubs has been eying it so we pulled the trigger as his Christmas present! Safe to say I nailed it this year!

MY WISH LIST

This Ember Ceramic Mug keeps your coffee at the perfect temperature for as long as it takes you to drink it!

I've been on the hunt for an essential oil diffuser that isn't an eye sore and This One would look great on my counter!

You can never go wrong with a good quality house robe and This One has the option for personalization!

LOVE this Hardshell Vanity Case for traveling with my precious Beautycounter products!
