One of the best parts about gifting your beauty junkie BFF during the holidays is the deals. Since beauty companies are packaging their best sellers into giftables, they're being offered at discounted prices. They're so irresistible that as selfish as it may sound, I highly recommend stocking up on your own beauty loot as you shop for others. I rounded up some of the best beauty deals happening this season so you don't miss out. You're welcome!
Lorac Sweet Temptations Eye Shadow Collection, $36 ($304 value)
Inspired by a box of deluxe chocolates, Celebrity Makeup Artist, Carol Shaw created these four eye shadow palettes with rich pigments that are velvety to touch. With names like: Indulge In White Chocolate (dramatic shades), Satisfying Toffee Crunch (natural shades), Tease Me Truffles (plum shades) and Tantalizing Dark Chocolate (bronze shades), the gift set makes a sweet treat for a chocolate lover or anyone who can use a boost to their cosmetic bag. And seriously, who doesn't?
Marchesa Parfum D'Extase Gift Set, $75 (a $115 value)
Update your scent with this light, floral fragrance by Marchesa. Feminine notes of freesia, jasmine and violet are layered over a musky finish to create a an intoxicating blend. This gift set comes with a 1 oz. eau de parfum spray, roller ball and hair mist.
Fresh Sugar Addiction Mini Lip Collection, $48 (a $68 value)
Appropriately named, I'm addicted to these tinted lip balms and would surely purchase them for myself if I didn't receive them at the press event. Not only do these lip treatments help prevent and heal chapped lips, but five out of six in this package add a nice buildable tint. My favorites are Rose and Berry.
Bliss The 'Bod' Squad Our Four Most 'Spa'-Pular Formulas For Body Set, $65 (a $115 value)
If you're a sucker for luxe body lotions and potions, then this set is worth indulging in. Bliss packaged their four best sellers: Body Butter, Body Scrub, Hand Cream and Fat Girl Slim all for a fraction of the price.
Urban Decay Ocho Loco 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil Set, $58 (a $152 value)
Urban Decay liners are no joke. They're super pigmented and glide on smoothly. This set contains eight full sized pencils: four best sellers and four newbies exclusively created for holiday.

A celebrity fragrance that possesses the femininity and beauty of a classic icon. Created by Elizabeth Taylor, the gift set includes a 3.3 oz. EDT Spray, 3.3 oz. Perfumed Body Cream, 3.3 oz. Gentle Moisturizing Body Wash and .5 oz. Frosted EDP. All travel sized, which is a smart way to give someone a gift of perfume. If they love it, they can purchase the full sized bottle at a later date.
Lancome Hypnose Star Mascara Collection, $34 (a $77 value)
This is the ultimate lash lovers kit. I'm obsessed with this mascara and love that Lancome created a whole kit around it! It comes with their Cils Booster XL Super-Enhancing Mascara Base, Bi-Facil Double-Action Eye Makeup Remover, Artliner Precision Point EyeLiner in Noir and of course, 0.22 oz Hypnôse Star Mascara in Intense Black. Everything you need to create an intense eye look.
Caudalie Indulgent Body Set, $28 (a $43 value)
Indulgent is the best word to describe Caudalie's creams. I live for their foot cream and want this set! It includes a full sized hand and nail cream and body butter. Trust me on this, treat yourself.
Yves Saint Laurent 'La Laque Couture' Nail Lacquer Set, $60 (a $75 Value)
This value makes them $20 a polish! Ladies, it's so worth it. They're full sized lacquers in Rouge Pop Art (my fave), Rouge Dada and Fuschia Intemporal. These polishes are covetable! I'd even purchase this, keep one for myself and give one to two of my friends as a token on their gifts.
