6. Hydrating Face Serums
You’ve probably heard the hype behind The Ordinary skincare products, and we have three words for you: Believe. The. Hype. Of course, skincare products are based on skin type – dry, combination, or oily – and numerous options exist for all kinds, but the winter season can be a foe to all and dry out your skin. So, stay prepared with this hydrating face serum.
If a loved one is struggling to keep their face hydrated during winter, The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 Hydrating Serum does wonders. Another great thing about skincare is being able to layer different serums. If there are multiple struggle points for someone’s skin, buy a bundle of those serums to care for those issues. These Ordinary skincare products come in perfect pocket-sized bottles that fit any stocking, even if you purchase a few.
7. Drying Hair Towel
.When you get out of the shower after washing your hair, don’t you just hate the feeling of your hair dripping down your back? And don’t get me started on the cons of using a second towel to dry your hair.

The Real Techniques makeup brush set includes a range of brush types that meet every curve of your face with glam and precision. This iconic brush set creates a flawless makeup look for a fraction of the price compared to other quality brushes.
