Christmas is coming. Have you done all your shopping yet? Here are a few last-minute gifts for the makeup lover in your life.

BESTOPE Makeup Brushes

The first thing any makeup lover needs in their arsenal is a good makeup brush set. The Bestope kit has 16 different blushes for blending and applying everything from eyeshadow, blush, foundation, eyeliner, and more.

Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Kit

A lot of eyeshadow pallets cost just as much, if not more, than filling up your car with gas for the week. This Physicians Formula Kit not only has a classic nude shimmery eyeshadow pallet but also comes with two eyeliners and two mascaras. Physicians Formula is all hypoallergenic.

NYX Professional Makeup Butter Gloss

The NYX Butter Gloss costs less than a Starbucks latte and lasts a long longer too. Keep your lips soft and not sticky with their variety of 27 fun shades, from a more nude Tiramisu gloss to a classic red Apple Crisp shade. NYX does not test its products on animals and is a certified cruelty-free brand by PETA.

Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Liquid Foundation Makeup

Finding the right foundation is key to perfecting the base for the rest of one’s makeup application. The Maybelline Fit Me foundation might be less than ten dollars, but the product doesn’t shirk the user of good quality. It is also non-comedogenic, which means it has been specifically made with ingredients that do not clog pores.

e.l.f 16 Hour Camo Concealer

The e.l.f brand concealer is cheap, vegan, and comes in a variety of 26 different shades. This concealer has 16-hour coverage and comes with a wand for easy application or re-application if you’re on the go. The e.l.f Camo concealer is perfect for normal/oily skin and has a matte finish. If you’re more of a dewy finish type of fan, e.l.f also has a hydrating Camo concealer.

Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner

Sure, it’s a bit more expensive, but the Stila eyeliner is a worthy investment. A good eyeliner can make or break a look, and that’s why Stila is so well-reviewed. Users praised the Stila eyeliner for its crisp, sharp color and its ease of application, with one recommending this product for anyone new to using eyeliner. The eyeliner is waterproof and comes in a variety of shades, from Periwinkle to Snow to a classic Intense Black.

HORM Makeup Mirror Vanity Mirror with Lights

A makeup mirror with great lighting can make a huge difference, and any makeup lover knows this. Sometimes you can have the best makeup in the world, but if you don’t have the right lighting, it can look wrong when you head out to an event. The HORM Mirror provides the right amount of light for makeup application and comes in sleek white, black, and pink shades and also has a touch control design for ease of use.

The Child Eye Shadow Palette

This eyeshadow palette is just as adorable as Baby Yoda himself. With a nice range of shades with cute names like, “Precious Cargo,” “Sipping Soup,” and “Just Like A Tatooine,” this palette is perfect for the Star Wars, Mandalorian, or Baby Yoda fan in your life. The palette comes with an adorable Baby Yoda cover that you can treasure even when the eyeshadows are gone.

Essence 3-pack Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara

You can’t go wrong with a three-pack of this mascara product that is gluten and cruelty-free. This affordable mascara gives you the perfect false lash effect and is worth the buy, making for the perfect stocking stuffer for any makeup lover.
