I’ve really been getting into the holiday spirit this year. We’ve already put up lights on some of our new bushes out front. (I’m trying to convince my husband to do them all!) I’ve purchased new ornaments to restyle my Christmas tree since the old ones are starting to look tired after several decades of use. And, I’ve been putting together a list for those who I’m gifting this year.
You all know how much I love Beautycounter. You’ve seen my post on the Best of Beautycounter Holiday. But, I thought I’d share some of the other NON-Beautycounter items that I actually use every day.
These days people are looking for ways to pamper themselves, relieve stress, get some restful sleep, and feel hopeful for a better 2021.
Here are my favorites which I use all the time, if not daily, that I want to share with you:

U Beauty Resurfacing Compound
I’m a big fan of this no-nonsense clean beauty serum. Even though I use Beautycounter’s Countertime Collection every day, I swap out for this U Beauty Resurfacing Compound most nights.

Tan Luxe The Face Illuminating Self-Tan Drops

Lawless Beauty
Another clean makeup brand I’ve been using lately is Lawless. I love how this is the glam girls’ clean makeup line. I love the Soft Matte Liquid Lipstick in “George”. It stays on all day when wearing a mask. the Lipsticks have such beautiful soft blush nudes that are gorgeous! And how about those eye shadow colors?!? Love the pigments and the staying power! $25-$64. Shop The Eye Palette Here and The Satin Luxe Classic Cream Lipstick Here

Beautycounter’s Deluxe Mini Countertime Travel Set
Okay, so maybe I have to share just ONE Beautycounter product. This one just came back in stock for a limited time only. The last time it was in, it sold out within hours before I even had the chance to order mine. Well, this time I did! If you are a fan of this skincare line as much as I am, you’ll want to snatch yours up quickly. We won’t be quarantined forever and you’ll want this refillable, travel-sized set, right? For those who have been tempted to try this line but didn’t want to make the commitment, this is a great way to give it a try. $169 Shop Here

Final Thoughts
Gifting those you love with products to help them feel pampered and spoiled while allowing them to solve some current problems they may be facing like lack of sleep and anxiety, seems like a win,win to me. I love how the beauty and personal care industry has been creating better performing and luxurious solutions for those who care about the importance of clean.
