20 Stocking Stuffers for the beauty lovers! (under $20)

Stocking Stuffers for the beauty lovers! (under $20)

 
For those who have no clue on what to give to the girlies, I made up a list of  20 stocking stuffers  that are wallet friendly BUT are amazing!! I will be definitely be giving out some of these for Christmas =) You can find these in either Walmart, Sephora, Target & Shoppers
 
1) Nyx's eyeshadow base ($6)  :Cheaper version of Mac's Paint Pot in Painterly. Helps eyeshadows last longer and even's out the colour of your lids.
 
2) E.L.F. eyelashes: ($1) (Dollarama) - I use these lashes 90% of the time on brides and bridesmaids and they love it! Gives the look of  fuller lashes but Natural.
3) OPI top 10 ($20): these are a must especially if you don't know what color to give. Rather than just giving one, which is worth $10, give this instead! The mini sizes are just right :)
 
4) Great lash mascara ($2): Use these to tame your brows or for your lashes when you still want your lashes to hold the curl. amazing for only $2 bucks!
 
5) nyx"s lip butters ($6): soft, creamy, pigmented, not sticky.....and cheap! nuff said.
 
6) Rimmel's wake me up foundation (13): semi-matte/satin finish, cheap, long lasting and affordable. comes in a pump form too!
 
7) Maybelline Falsies flared mascara ($7) been using this mascara for a good 2 or 3 years now. Just love the Falsies. Natural, lengthening and Volumizing at the same time.
 
8) Revlon lipbutter in red velvet ($8): My fave out of the lip butters, easy to apply, no shimmer, colour payoff/pigmentation is opaque
 
9) Lush lip scrub in popcorn ($10): Exfoliating your lips is a must especially in the colder months. It takes forever to finish this jar. made out of sugar soooo you can actually lick it off :)
 
10) Essie's Fiji ($10): My favourite Go-to Polish. Classic, clean, baby pink color that would go with anything and everything!
 
11) Milani baked blush in Luminoso ($13) coral-y, rose gold color that would suit almost everyone. its subtle, or can build it up for more color. Can be used as eyeshadow too! :)
 
12) Mac's ruby woo lipstick ($18) : cool toned matte red that would look good on everyone. a staple in every girl's kit!
 
13) Nyx Blush in Angel/ peach ($6): Love NYX blushes! Mt
 
14) Rimmel's wake me up concealer ($8): Rimmel's first full coverage concealer. Its creamy, illuminating  and covers imperfections without drying/cake-ing the under eyes.
 
15) Nyx's lipgloss in beige ($5): It is very pigmented, long lasting, comfortable to wear, and easy to apply! Perfect Pink that would work on everyone. (mauve-y color)
 
16) L'Oreal eyeliner intense ($11): jet black color, sharp pointed edge (especially when doing winged eye liner looks), dries fast.
 
17) Shu eumura eyelash curler ($19): This is amazing especially for people that have small eyes. I have quite a few of these..one I use for my clients and for myself. the quality is great for the price.

18) UD all nighter makeup setting spray mini size ($12): Espeicially to girlies that have oily skin, this locks your makeup up to 12 hours! love this!
 
 19) EOS lipbalms  ($10-12): its cute, easy to find in your bag and keeps your lippies hydrated :) I personally like pink sorbet and sweet mint!

20) Rimmel stay matte powder ($10): sets your makeup, light coverage, matte and gives a natural finish

 Happy Shopping and Merry Christmas!
 
xo,
Denise

11 Beauties under $10

Hello Beauties! tag been going around 10 under $10. but excuse me i had to squeeze in 1 because i cant decide!note: taxes not included since price varies (Walmart, Shoppers etc)



Rimmel Wake me up foundation ($8)
I always always use the revlon colourstay foundation but since its expensive for a drusgtore, (went up to $15.99) i decided to try others. the hype on this foundation has been going around and decided to give it a try...and i like it. its not too thin nor too thick of a coverage, easy to apply, smells good, i like how its in a pump version. its light to medium coverage, perfect for everyday, lasts long (about 6 hours and im pretty oily)

Rimmel Apocalips ($6)
this little guy feels amazing on the lips. its a lipstick/lipgloss in 1 and BIG BANG definitely is the star in this collection. its opaque, consistency and the applicator is amazing. for the price, cant go wrong:)

Loreal Voluminous mascara ($8)
this has been my holy grail mascara for about 2 years already. it was a close tie between my maybelline falsies, the only thing different is that loreal voluminous gave me more volume than the falsies/falsies flared which gives me more of length. i always always use this and i would get compliments every time i wear this. try it out!

Maybelline clear mascara ($3)
i specifically use this as a brow gel to tame my brows. Rather than buy wax or brow stuff at sephora, i just use clear mascara. Also i sometimes do use it for my eye lashes (obv. different tube) when i hit the gym to give me that naturally curled eyelash look :) definitely worth it or 3 bucks!

Sally Hansen's Pacific blue ($3)
i love this  line when it comes to nail polishes, specifically this one. i love the brush (thicker than usual) that can cover my nails in 2 swipes, so opaque ( i can go by with 1 coat most of the time), easy to apply, affordable and i like the packaging!

Milani Liquif'eye eyeliner ($7)
this eyeliner has been on the popular side for the longest time... and i dont question why. my lids are super oily and i always have a hard time finding a good pencil eyeliner that can even stay on my waterline. blown away with this one. creamy and opaque and doesnt budge at all. if you plan on smoking it out on your lids, you have to act quick though. do one eye at a time and give it 5 secs, it wont budge till you take it off.

NYX jumbo eye pencil in yogurt ($6-8)
i prefer pencils like this than paint pots. loving the jumbo pencils specifically this one. Quick and easy to apply, doesnt crease, help brighten up my eyes. On the go, sometimes i just pencil it on my lids and it seems like i am wearing eyeshadow. i love the black one as well. i typically use it as a base when i do smokey eyes.kuddos to nyx!




Wet and wild eyeshadow palette ($3)
im surprised with wet and wild! this palette i actually like! 3 eyeshadows matte, 3 are shimmery/satin. its actually pigmented than i thought it would be! great for on the go, for a neutral, everyday look. not bad for 3$!:)
btw, just be careful when travelling with this palette, make sure when you pack, surround it with soft stuff or securely, not giving it room to shake because they do brake  easily.

Loreal elnette spray ($8)
the only hairspray i use when i do my curls. it gives hold and shine while it being brushable and natural. although im not a fan on the smell, i can handle it. love how it works! its not scrunchy, and you dont have to spray on so much. probably 1-2 short sprays over your head and youre good. curls lasts all day. comparable to sebastian shaper spray, which is 4 times the price.

Tresemme heat tamer spray ($4)oldie but goodie! since i always apply heat (blow-dry, straighten and or curl) its very important for me to protect my fine, brittle hair. i love the scent, how its very light, protects, adds shine and most importantly, protects my hair from even more damage. i actually see and feel the difference when i dont use this.

St. Ives apricot scrub ($5)
another "classic" scrub. oldie but goodie. the market has come up with so much skin care products and exfoliation is so common that there are a ton of different ones. i seem to go back to my trusty st ives.they have expanded their line too when it came to exfoliation scrubs. mine is the sensitive skin one. i just love this. i use this once a week, on a weekend to get rid of dead skin cells, gunk and to give my skin a healthy look. such a big difference. i love how it smells, how its not too abrasive but its coarse enough to really work through my skin. love it!

these are my top 11. whats yours?
