Portland,OR AMNW LIVE TV Segment: Holiday Beauty Gift Ideas For Everyone

If you were to take a peak into my home right now, you would see beauty products decking my halls instead of the traditional holiday garb. I lit-er-aly have boxes and boxes of my beauty favs in random corners of my home which is making my oh-so-masculine (but mostly metro) husband feel like he needs to have a mans night to escape the beauty bonanza. To his credit though, we do have two daughters, a female golden doodle and of course…me. Yeah he needs a guys night, way to much estrogen in this household. My main point though, is that I carefully selected which items I wanted to show to you on my holiday beauty gift idea segment on Portland’s, AMNW.

Which item is on your wish list this year?

(Below is my segment, if you are subscribed to my blog via email-it for some reason doesn’t show up…so check it out here.)

Items on the show are below, but I will do a thorough review of each in the next few weeks…so stay tuned!

Besides the anti-aging benefits, the shades and longevity of these lipsticks are amazing! $25.00 only at Sephora.com

4)    Clarisonic and Vbeaute It Kit – Skincare is something that both my mom and mother in-law ask for every year! So I am always on the search for the latest and greatest plus already favorites. The Clarisonic has been a long time friend of mine and should be in everyone’s shower to clean your skin the best and allow skincare products to have maximum absorption. The Vbeaute It Kit has some of the best skincare technology out there including: BioCellular Peptide (BCP) which is an age preventer through a signaling complex, which protects the integrity of cell structure, stimulates collagen, enhances cellular energy and promotes cellular longevity. It’s also travel friendly, which is perfect for the holidays.

I think this is perfect for anyone at any age. It’s adorable! $34.00 at Anastasia.net

6)    Modella Cosmetic Bags — I am one of those people that is cosmetic bag obsessed…especially if they might just happen to be stuffed with goodies!
