The Best Bang for Your Buck Buys from the Beautycounter Holiday Collection
Hellooooooo friends! I am SO excited to finally be writing about the topic of Holiday! I feel like I am extra excited for the holiday season this year, given how INSANE 2020 has been. Here’s to hoping 2021 is FINALLY our year! Woof! Anyway, a couple weeks ago Beautycounter launched their 2020 Holiday Collection and I snagged a bunch of the products. I have been LOVING everything I ordered, but wanted to breakdown my favorites that I think everyone should consider purchasing for the people on your list (or for yourself!). I think they are all a great value, but some seem better than others, in my humble opinion! So without further ado, here are my top pics for Beautycounter Holiday 2020!
I am particularly excited about this gift set, because I plan to break the hand creams up and give them as work thank you’s alongside a Starbucks gift card. I think hands creams are a super easy gift to pair with a gift card because they are thoughtful, without being over the top! This would make the perfect teacher gift, coworker gift, bridesmaid gift, etc. You can stuff stockings with them, or give one to your mom, one to your mother in law, and another to your grandmother, aunt or sister. I have purchased two sets of these to give out as gifts this year!
The Jellies are another great gift similar to the Hand Cream Trio since you can separate them! Doing a ladies cocktail hour with friends? Give your guests their own lip gloss as a parting holiday gift. Have daughters or granddaughters? Throw a bow on the packaging and pop it in a stocking or under the tree! Such an awesome gift for all ages, and the lip glosses come in a variety of colors and scents! I am so excited to have snagged this one!
Golden Hour All-In-One Palette:
Prior to purchasing the Golden Hour All-In-One Palette, I was personally not a huge makeup palette person. I honestly really didn’t wear eyeshadow on a daily basis (which most palettes, including this one, contain), and never really saw a need for them. WELL WOW WAS I WRONG! I was so pleasantly surprised by this makeup palette, I am a total palette convert now! How many times can I say palette while writing this segment?!?! Anyway, the blush in this set is absolutely stunning (the perfect warmer pink for the fall and winter months) and I am obsessed with the highlighter and pinky shadow tones. All around great purchase. Do not regret buying one bit!
I think the Bright Side Duo is the BEST bang for your buck holiday purchase because of the incredible savings with this deal! Normally, the All Bright C Serum is $79 on its own, and the Overnight Resurfacing Peel is $63! At $75 for the Bright Side Duo you are saving $67 instead of buying each product individually. The products in the set are slightly smaller than their full-size counterpart (but large enough to still get 2-3 months of use out of each bottle), which makes it a great place to start if you are new to Beautycounter. I personally hadn’t tried the All Bright C Serum prior to purchasing this set for myself, and this way I can sample it out before committing to the full size bottle! HIGHLY recommend this one!
Let me be totally honest in saying I initially purchased this skin set solely for the exclusive roller that it came with. The zinc alloy roller is meant to help cool and depuff skin, which is something I’ve felt like I needed a lot recently. Then I started watching my friends stories and saw that they used and loved Countertime Tripeptide Radiance Serum, so I was super excited to have purchased this set. It is a great set for anyone on your list who is focused on anti-aging while using all natural products. The Countertime Tripeptide Radiance Serum contains our Retinatural Complex which is Beautycounter’s clean, plant based alternative to Retinol and other anti-aging ingredients that tend to be extremely toxic. I cannot wait to start adding the serum into my skincare routine!
