Are you all ready for Christmas? I’m definitely not!
It’s hard to believe that the holiday season is already here again! I mean we
haven’t even celebrated Thanksgiving yet. It seems like most retail stores have jumped
right over Thanksgiving since they’ve been decked out for Christmas since Nov.
1st. So naturally I’ve already started
thinking about all of the shopping that I still need to do. And if you’re like me and you always seem to find
yourself doing some last minute shopping, then it’s never too early to start
planning. The sooner that you start planning ahead, the sooner
you’ll eliminate the unwanted stress that accompanies the season’s shopping
and gift-giving frenzy.
And you may find that you’ll find better deals and stay within your
budget. This year I’m really going to
try hard to take my own advice with planning ahead. Since we only have 42 days until Christmas, I’ll be
posting several holiday gift guides to help you take the guesswork out of shopping for
everyone on your list. Be sure to come back here for a new gift guide each week
until Christmas and let me know what you think. Also, if you have any
additional gift suggestions, please leave them in the comments below. I would love to hear from you.
The first gift guide that I’m excited to share with
you all includes beauty items that I would love to buy for myself. From small makeup palettes and nail polish
sets to perfume and brush sets, you’ll be sure to find something for the beauty
obsessed lady on your list. I made sure to find gifts at several different
price points and the best part is that everything is under $75.00. Here are some of my top beauty picks this
holiday season.
HOLIDAY SHOPPING TIP
Set a maximum spending limit for your Christmas
shopping: Before you start thinking about
what gifts to buy for your loved ones or who’s names to put on your list – it's important to calculate how much money you can afford to
spend. It will save you from having any surprises with your finances in the future.
