Last Minute Gifts in time for Christmas

If you’re still looking for some gifts that will arrive in time for Christmas, consider checking out giving your friends & family (yes even the MEN in your life!) the gift of safer skincare.

Beautycounter still has amazing holiday deals going on that would make the perfect gift for someone, plus it says you care about their health & well-being by giving them products that won’t do them any harm.  Also, it would be an amazing gift for you, from you!  One of my resolutions into the New Year that I’ve already started working on is cleaning up the products that I use on my body and in our house.  I care so much about what I put into my body that it doesn’t make any sense to neglect what I put ON my body.  The skin is the largest organ and it absorbs everything.  We should be mindful about what we are putting on it!  I am slowly making the switch so all of my products are clean & safe…and I will be doing a post soon on my reasons and the scary things hiding in so many of our commonly used products.  It’s pricey of course to overhaul everything at once, so starting out with just a couple products at a time is the best way to slowly make the lifestyle change!

FYI on receiving your gifts in time for Christmas: check out the info below for shipping dates!

AND, if you CLICK HERE to sign up for my Beautycounter email list, you will be the first to know of freebies & promos…& let’s just say you may want to check it out before you place an order this month 😉 Simply subscribe & I’ll send you the details to your inbox!

Also, if you want help choosing the products that are right for you, feel free to fill out my skincare questionnaire HERE and I will get back to you directly with my responses!

Check out some of my favorite picks below!

Shimmer & Shine Body Set:  Helloooo spa day every day.  This scrub is heavenly and the body butter & shimmer oil will have you glowing like you just left a tropical island…year round!

Limited Edition Counterman Gift Set:  Perfect for men in your life!!  This set includes Daily Exfoliating Cleanser, Smoothing Shave Cream, Cooling Aftershave Tonic, and Oil-Free Face Lotion

Best of Beautycounter Set:  This is the one to REALLY spoil someone (or yourself!) because it has all of the best-selling and best-performing products in one set. It includes the Cleansing Balm, Countermatch Adaptive Moisture Lotion, No. 1 Brightening Facial Oil, and No. 3 Balancing Charcoal Facial Mask.  Beauty is skincare first in my opinion!

Countercontrol All Clear Starter Set:  If blemish-prone skin is the problem, then this starter set is the answer!  Comes with the Clear Pore Cleanser, All Over Acne Treatment, SOS Acne Spot Treatment, and Matte Effect Gel Cream.

New Nudes Lip Gloss Trio: three flattering, new nude lip glosses that instantly elevate any look. Each understated shade gives lips a boost of conditioning, non-sticky moisture with sheer color, high-impact shine and just a hint of mint.  Shades are Caramel (sheer honey), Spice (warm neutral with gold-silver shimmer), and Praline (neutral with gold multi shimmer).

Instant Awakening Trio:  Any tired mamas or hard-working boss babes out there will love this gift. It’s a perfect pick-me-up for dull, tired skin—or the ideal gift for the jet-setter.  Includes the Overnight Resurfacing Peel, Instant Glow Illuminating Cream, and the Eye Revive Cooling Masks.  I may just be snagging this trio for myself 😉

Necessary Neutrals Eyeshadow Palette: how DREAMY is this?! This limited-edition palette features 18 long-wearing shades designed to flatter all skin tones.  This versatile collection of wearable warm and cool shades offers a variety of matte, satin and shimmer finishes, each with a luxuriously smooth texture from cocoa seed butter. 

Flawless in Five: Effortless beauty in 5 minutes. Includes the Tint Skin Hydrating Foundation, Touchup Skin Concealer Pen, Color Define Brow Pencil, Lengthening or Volumizing Mascara, Satin Powder Blush, and Lip Gloss.  You pick the shades best for you!

Color Pinch Cream Blusher: beautifully rich pigment and a natural, dewy finish, this cream blush instantly brightens cheeks. (This multitasker works on lips and lids, too.) In addition to giving features a pop of color, it also hydrates and conditions skin with jojoba esters and carnauba wax and slips into any bag for easy, on-the-go enhancement.

These are just a few of the amazing products you can choose from, but I Just wanted to select a few of my favorites that I think would make great gifts!  You can check out all of the products HERE and don’t forget to subscribe to the email list for an extra something special 😉

xo,

Bess
