Holiday Gift Guide: Luxe Beauty Gift Sets

I was on Nordstrom.com for so many hours to try to find the perfect Luxe beauty gift sets to gift out during the upcoming holidays and to share with you here today. There are so many great deals that many brands are putting together but I picked 20 sets in total out of hundreds.

All of the gifts I have here, I have to say that they are a little pricey but if you have a large budget and are ready to spend and save, these below gift sets will be waiting for you. Even though they’re expensive you will sure get a great value out of them. I’m going to list by the highest value offer first and go down to the less expensive ones.

Holiday Gift Guide: Clean Cruelty Free Skincare Products

Holiday Gift Guide: Clean Cruelty Free Skincare Products

Hello there, love!

Today I have another clean holiday gift guide for those who seek for clean and cruelty-free skincare products to gift this year. All of these clean, cruelty-free skincare products are my favorites that I’ve been using on a daily basis. There are 11 items, starting from cleaner to an overnight mask.

Again, I’m loving all of them but I’m not going to get into to much details to help save you some holiday shopping time. I will leave a short reason why I love each product the most below.

I hope you find the perfect gift for you and for your loved ones.

Let’s get right into it, shall we?

OSEA Ocean Cleansing Milk

This cleanser is very gentle and soothing. I love the creamy texture and how it makes my skin feel so soft and clean. Most of the ingredients are organic. Perfect gift for people who have sensitive skin.

 

Biossance Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil

One of my favorite face oils that helps reduce my acne scars. This face oil also makes my skin brighter and clearer.

 

Pai Skincare Chamomile and Rosehip Calming Day Cream

Very soothing and calming day cream that hydrates my skin and leaves it super soft for hours. Absorbs quickly with no irritation.

 

ELEMIS Peptide⁴ Eye Recovery Cream – Reviving Eye Cream

This is my all time favorite eye cream that helps reduce puffiness and dark under eyes. My husband and I have already gone through 3 tubes and we can’t live without it. My father in law is loving it too. This is definitely a perfect gift for those who have under eye issues.

 

Well Done Crystal Facial Roller

Jade facial roller helps to stimulate collagen production. I use it day and night after applying my face oils and moisturizers. It’s very cold to the touch which helps diminish the look of my pores.

Biossance Squalane + Mineral SPF 45

This is a lightweight, and non-greasy mineral sunscreen lotion that helps even skintone. I use it as a makeup base and it helps my makeup go on smoothly.

 

Dr Roebuck’s Bondi Hydrating Mist

I love the fruity scent of this mist. The pump is very easy to use and sprays a lot of mist out at once. I use it every time I feel my skin starting to turn dehydrated during the day. Absolutely love everything about this hydrating mist.

 

Holiday Gift Guide Clean CRUELTY FREE Skincare Molly Larsen Beauty Style Arizona Blogger allaboutgoodvibes.com IG @TheVibesCloset

 

100% Pure Multi-Vitamin + Antioxidants Potent PM Serum

This serum absorbs very quickly and feels so light on the skin. I love the refreshing citrus scent of this serum. It helps brighten an uneven skin tone. It’s also gentle enough to use around your eyes.

 

100% Pure Retinol Restorative Overnight Balm

Waking up with a soft, smooth and supple skin after using this overnight balm. Just a heads up though, you might feel weird and wonder how can you go to sleep with this overnight balm on because of the rich oily balm effect. But trust me, if you give it a try for one night, you will want to use it every night.  This will be a perfect gift for those who are a fan of retinol and love to have younger looking skin.

 

Overtime Mask – Summer Fridays

Love the two in one benefits of this mask. Not only is it a mask but it’s also an exfoliator. This pumpkin mask is a lot more gentle than most of the pumpkin masks on the market. I use it once a week and every time it leaves my skin very soft and clean. This is a perfect holiday mask. I have a blog post about “Best Face Masks for All Skin Problems” that includes a full review of this overtime mask, feel free to check it out.

 

Tatcha Luminous Deep Hydration Revitalizing Eye Mask

My under eyes area are looking much brighter and hydrated. I was skeptical to try this eye mask at first as I had heard some reviews about how hard it is to apply. But after experiencing the process for myself, there’s no such thing as ‘hard to apply’ for this eye mask. It was simple and quick to apply and only 15 minutes of your day will make your under eyes smoother and supple.

3 Tips to Create A Memorable Personalized Holiday Card with Ease

It’s that joyous time of the year again and everyone is busy shopping for gifts, planning and hosting parties, and looking to send out holiday greeting cards. With all of the joyful tasks you have to do, I don’t want you to run out of energy, so I am sharing with you today 3 tips to create a memorable personalized holiday card with ease. So, you will get this family photoshoot ready and won’t have to deal with unnecessary stress.

Let’s dive into it.

Tip #1

Know where to take pictures and who will be your photographer

Planning where to take a picture is the first most important matter you should take it in consideration. If you have never been to the place before, I recommend you take an hour of your day to go visit the place and find the right spot you think will look good on your card.

You should go to there around the same time you’re planning to do a real photoshoot, to see how slow or busy your venue is. Planning where to take pictures ahead of time, will lower your stress and make everything a lot easier for your photoshoot day.

Looking into the rules and regulations of the place is also a good idea because some place will ask you to pay or will fine you if you take pictures without permission.

Knowing who will take your picture is also a must. Are you going to hire a professional photographer or will you ask your family member for a favor to take family photo for you.

If you’re planning to take pictures at your own home, that’s the best place of all. Make sure you list down all of your props and have them ready for your day.

This year we took a trip to Japan and planned to do a Christmas card photoshoot there. So we picked a garden near our hotel as a venue, Kiyosumi Garden. It is a traditional Japanese stroll garden located in FukagawaTokyo. It was constructed along classic principles in 1878-85, during the Meiji Period. There are three big islands and a teahouse on the pond. The garden covers an area of about 81,000 square meters. (Source: Wikipedia)

We love the greenery, the bonsai trees and the architecture, that will make our card a little bit different than a usual Holiday cards. Here are a few photos from the garden and the photos we are using on our family photo Christmas card.

Tip #2

Know who will be in the pictures and what to wear

This might sound like a no brainer but seriously knowing who will be in the picture is a must. Will you include your furry baby(ies)? Knowing the amount of people can make your shoot go smoothly and you will be sure not to forget anyone.

With this tip, it will help you arrange the right outfits or special costumes for each person. Or at least you can tell everyone what type of cloths and or color you would like them to wear.

For our family, we tried and packed our outfits in the suitcase and once we were in Japan, we were ready to get everything done.

My husband’s outfit is from The Black Tux.

My daughter’s outfit is from Target.

My dress and beret are from Zara. Boots are from NastyGal.

 

Tip #3

Know where to print your cards

I would have to say this is one of the most important parts of your holiday cards, you have to know where to design and print your cards out. I personally recommend using Minted.com to create your holiday cards.

Minted’s holiday cards are designed from independent artists around the globe. Find the perfect holiday card for your style with luxe paper and printing across a variety of formats.

Holiday Gift Guide: Cute Cruelty Free & Vegan Gift under $25

Holiday Gift Guide: Cute Cruelty Free & Vegan Gift under $25

Holiday Gift Guide Cute Cruelty Free and Vegan Gift under $25 Molly Larsen Beauty and Style Arizona Blogger allaboutgoodvibes.com IG @TheVibesCloset

I’m into Cruelty Free & Vegan products this year as you already know. So I’m sharing this cute gift under $25 idea (Cruelty Free & Vegan products of course!) today for those who are on a budget to shop for their girlfriends and family.

I received these Cruelty Free & Vegan Nail Lacquers and So Rich Cuticle Oil Duo from NCLA to review on my Instagram. Since I’m very impressed with their products and I know they will make good gifts so I decided to go ahead and create this short Holiday Gift Gide post for you here today.

What I like about the nail polish is how lightweight and fast it dries on my nails. They offer so many pretty colors in their collection. Here I have “We’re Off to Never Never Land“, “I Been Drinkin‘”, “Don’t Call Me Peachy” (I’m wearing this color in the picture below.) and “Volume V“. For the So Rich Cuticle Oil Duo I have the “Lollipop Lollipop” and “Mermaid Tears“.

Holiday Gift Guide Cute Cruelty Free and Vegan Gift under $25 Molly Larsen Beauty and Style Arizona Blogger allaboutgoodvibes.com IG @TheVibesCloset

 

The price of the “Nail Lacquer” is $16 and the “Cuticle Oil Treatment” is $18. Jut under our $25 price point! 🙂

What makes these products perfect gifts this holiday are their cute packagings, the quality of products and their prices.

These NCLA products contain NO Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin, DBP, Toluene, Camphor, TPHP, OR XYLENE and are cruelty free and vegan.

I’m personally in love with the “So Rich – Lollipop Lollipop” cuticle oil treatment. It smells amazing and very nourishing.

Holiday Gift Guide : DIY Clean Makeup Box

Holiday Gift Guide : DIY Clean Makeup Box

Happy new week love! I’m so excited to share with you today the first Holiday Gift Guide of the year. This year I am taking my gift guide to the next level because I am now paying more attention to what I choose to put on my skin and yours. So this gift guide will be about clean and  cruelty free makeup products. Either you want to gift yourself or start introducing all clean makeup to your loved ones, this post will be a perfect place to start your clean beauty adventure.

I have put together this DIY Clean gift box that includes my favorites filled with all things clean and cruelty free from primer to vegan cosmetic cases, 15 products in total.

If you are ready, let’s dive into it!

 

Illuminator

The first product I put in this gift box is the Vapour’s HALO ILLUMINATOR. It is formulated with Vapour’s Herbal Enlightenment Complex of Frankincense, Tulsi and Lotus to support healthy glowing skin. Made with 70% organic ingredients, non-toxic and cruelty-free. What I love about this illuminator are that it’s so easy to apply with its silky smooth, lightweight and blend-able texture.

Also, this illumination stick will not clog pores which is why I love it so much. It gives such a beautiful healthy glow which you can use it day or night, at work or a night out.

I always apply it on the center of my forehead, under the brow, top of cheekbone, along the nose and on cupid’s bow. But you can actually apply it on the inner corner of your eyes, center of chin and use it to add some glow to your shoulders, collarbones and décolletage.

This Vapour’s HALO ILLUMINATOR  will be a perfect gift for this upcoming holiday for those who seek for clean, cruelty free and glowy skin.

HALO ILLUMINATOR

Vapour Beauty
$36.00

P.S. I put the blush into the lips section, you will find out why so keep on reading.

 

Eyes Makeup

When I was choosing the eye products for this Holiday Gift Guide Clean Makeup post, I had to go back and forth so many times to decide which products I wanted to recommend to you. I came up with these 4 products that are clean, cruelty free and vegan, BH Cosmetics Glam Reflection 15-Color Eyeshadow PaletteLong Wear Gel Eyeliner – MILK MAKEUPThe Good Brow – Josie Maran, and Too Faced Travel Size Better Than Sex Mascara.

The Good Brow – Josie Maran

Too Faced Travel Size Better Than Sex Mascara

Gives gorgeous length and volume. The travel size is the perfect size to tryout.

 

Lips Makeup

Moving onto the last set of products I put in this clean makeup box, the lip products. I choose the Raw Sugar Lip Balm – Pineapple + Maqui Berry + Coconut as you know I am a big fan of Raw Sugar Products and this lip balm is so good. I added BH Cosmetics Waterproof Lip LinerTriple Luxe Long-Lasting Naturally Moist Lipstick,  and Olio E Osso Balm.

Vegan Cosmetic Case

I’ve picked a few transparent vegan makeup cases for you here. The reason why I choose transparent bags is because you can see through the bag which makes it a lot easier for you to find your products.
