OLIVIA'S HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE 2019
Hey guys, what's up? It's Olivia, and welcome back to my blog! The holiday season is rolling around, aka my favorite time of the year! I think we can all agree that receiving gifts is fun, but giving gifts is arguably better! I love being able to personalize each gift according to the person's personality and I love seeing their reactions! So I thought this year, I would share some gift ideas for you guys, in case you don't know what to get your friends or family. So without further ado, let's dive right into it!
1) MARIO BADESCU ROSEWATER SPRAY
This has been one of my favorite skincare, holy grail products for a couple years now. For those of you who are well familiar with my blog, you would know that I constantly rave about this product! It feels so refreshing against the skin and it's a great pick-me-up if your skin is ever feeling irritated or dry. It also smells amazing, and I am a huge fan of rose-scented anything!

2) GHIRARDELLI PEPPERMINT CHOCOLATE
If any of your friends or family have a sweet tooth, I HIGHLY recommend this! Everybody that I know loves this, and so do I. I am a huge chocolate fan and this makes a great gift or stocking stuffer!

3) BENEFIT CHEEK AND LIP TINT
I am personally not a huge makeup person, but I do like to do a little bit every day, to just brighten up my face. This product has also been something that I have been using for the past couple of years. I am also a huge fan of Benefit, and this is one of, if not, my favorite products that they make. You can add a couple drops of this onto your lips or cheeks and it's so simple, only takes a couple of seconds but it can do so much and brightens up your face completely!

4) ORNAMENTS
This is something that can be flexible depending on your price range. You can get mini ornaments or personalized ornaments; you can add a photo in some of them or you can put a name in some of them. For example, I got my brother and I matching snowmen ornaments that say our names from Target, and that was part of his stocking stuffer. It's something that can be so simple but so personal and meaningful. I linked below some ornaments.

5) SOAP
This is another great gift if you are shopping on a budget! There are a ton of soap kits or singular soaps that you can buy that are also festive for the holiday seasons. They would make a great little gift for a friend or family member. You can either purchase them storebought, or you can hand-make them as well, which would also be super meaningful! I'll link a recipe I included in my post about DIY Holiday Gift Ideas, down below, if you guys want to make your own.

6) PAJAMA SET
I have been dying to get a matching pajama set for the holiday season. Something comfy that I can wear to bed, but still take a couple photos in if I decide to have a candid photo shoot. I think this is a great option for somebody who loves clothing. You can even wrap it up in a bag and add an eye mask and some fluffy slippers!

7) FLUFFY JACKET/BLANKET/SOCK
Fluffy anything is definitely always going to be a winner, especially if the person you're giving the gift to, lives in a place with a cold climate. I also love this gift idea because it is money friendly and adjustable, depending on your budget. If you don't have as much to spend on gifts this year, socks always make a great stocking stuffer. You can also purchase a fluffy blanket or jacket as well.

8) PASSPORT COVER
For frequent travelers, this is a great gift or stocking stuffer option! I bought a cute passport cover a couple years back when I started traveling more frequently, and I love it! It's also great because I can easily distinguish it from my other family members' passports and it's less likely that you will lose it because it will stand out! There are a bunch of websites where you can even customize people's names on them, but I linked this adorable option below!
