The Best Beauty Gifts For The Sister Who Loves Maintaining Her Physical Appearance
Sephora
T3 Aire 360 Ceramic Air Styler Blowout Kit
Your sister's wash day routine won't be the same once you introduce her to this blowout kit. Before I got boho braids, I decided to use it to dry my natural hair and it literally cut my blowdrying time in half! I have thick coils so it usually takes a while for me to gently stretch my hair without damaging it, but not anymore!
This kit includes:
- Aire 360 Base
- 2 Curling Attachments (Left and Right)
- Oval Brush Attachment
- SoftAire® Drying Concentrator
- Storage Tote
I personally love the drying concentrator and the oval brush attachment because they give me the softest blowout I've ever had!

If your sister already has the perfect curling iron and blow dryer, you can still gift her something that boosts her hair.

Tell her there's no need to lose it because Nakery Beauty's Firming Rich Cream is packed full of good ingredients to help her. There's things like Vegetable Collagen and Plant Stem Cells that work to promote a healthy skin barrier, meaning your sister will be glowing well into the new year.

Sephora
Tower 28 Mini Lil Softies Tinted Lip Treatment
I've been wearing Tower 28's 'Ube Vanilla' shade in their Tinted Lip Treatment and I can't get enough. This means your sister deserves to know about this miniature set! Unlike other lip oilsand treatments, this formula isn't sticky whatsoever! It has shea butter, jojoba oil, and lysine in it to provide a super kissable pout.
P.S. I've noticed that my lips are visibly softer and haven't been peeling or cracking as much since I've been wearing this!
Kulfi
Kulfi Five Minute Face Set
Your sister's a busy woman who's always rushing it seems. If you've ever witnessed her applying makeup in the car while she's driving, save her (and traffic) from mishaps by gifting her Kulfi's Five Minute Face Set. She'll get the following:
Sephora
Beautyblender Power Pocket Puff
Celebrity Makeup Artist Natalie Dresher has nothing but rave reviews about this cute pocket puff! She says, "My absolute favorite tool for on the go mattification (is that a word? Or did I just coin that?). A must have for those going out for special events, it’s compact and fits in the tiniest of purses."
Sephora
LYS Beauty Mini Higher Standard Cream Glow Blush Set
Why commit to just one blush when you can have three? At least that's what I think you'll say to your sister when she opens this cute gift. I love that it's by a black-owned brand, but I'm even more excited that these blushes are vegan. They have kaolin clay, avocado oil, and vitamin E in them which has all the makings of a smooth, hydrating finish.
Sephora
Armani Beauty Eye Tint Long-Lasting Liquid Eyeshadow
Dresher says, "One swipe and your eyeshadow is done with these Armani Beauty eye tints. They are user friendly and even the most beginner makeup user can figure out how to apply these! I love shade 67S Sparkle because it looks great on all skin tones making it a universal shade."
Stila Cosmetics

You think your sister's iconic, right? I sure think my sister is so I''d love to add this to the running list of gifts I'm choosing for her. Everything is, once again, TSA-friendly, so your sister can take everything with her at all times.
She'll love getting:
- Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner in Intense Black

Lilac St.
Gold In My Veins Press-On Nails
I've been wearing these press-on nails for the past two weeks because they're the best I've ever worn. I personally think you should gift your glamorous sister these cuties before Christmas because she'll want to have something nice on her nails when she goes to take holiday pictures.
Cult Gaia
Cult Gaia Mast Eau De Parfum
If your sister has been looking for a new fragrance that she and others will love, I'm sure she'll fall in love with Cult Gaia's new scent, 'Mast.' It's a mix of Italian Bergamot and tropical coconut — two blends that make me want to spray on every piece of clothing I have!.
I really love that your sister won't have to fret about parabens, sulfates, BHA, mineral oils or other formaldehydes! I mean, clean beauty is truly the way to go!
Amazon
Scent Beauty Sweet Tooth by Sabrina Carpenter Eau de Parfum
Does your sister love the sweet blend of gourmands and florals? If you answered yes, you absolutely have to gift her Sabrina Carpenter's Sweet Tooth Eau de Parfum. It smells like a decadent blend of cherries, chocolate, vanilla orchid, musk, and a few other things that'll make her smell divine.
Kohl's
Valentino Born In Roma The Gold Eau de Toilette
Not everyone loves wam or musky scents, including your sister. She may enjoy something that smells 'fresh' which is why Valentino's Born In Roma fragrance will work for her. It'll remind her a little of summer, helping to keep some of seasonal depression away.
Étoile
Étoile Duo Vanity Case
Your sister's going to need somewhere safe to store her new beauty goodies while traveling so make sure you gift her Étoile's Duo Vanity Case. It's eco-friendly, makeup-proof, and includes a portable mirror. Tell her to be careful if she decides to pack a couple of skincare products because oils can stain it.
Amazon

Did I just find the best beauty gift set for those who consider their beauty routines to be a form of self-care? I think so! It features two detangling tools, an eye mask, scalp massager, and more! If your sister doesn't get weak in the knees once she unwraps this, you can always sneak a few things from it.
I'm kidding...or am I?
The Best Style Gifts For The Bougie Sister Who Slays All Year
Oomiay
Oomiay Gold Bubble Initial Letter Necklace
Sometimes big sisters aren't a huge fan of flashy jewelry, but that doesn't mean you have to stay away from dainty pieces! Oomiay has so many cute options that will fit her style, like this bubble initial letter necklace! I'm currently wearing one and I only take it off when I have to shower! It's sturdy and fits perfectly in the middle of the chest, making it the only necklace your sister will want to wear.
The Sage Vintage
The Sage Vintage Gold Dainty Custom Charm Bracelet
Does your sister prefer charm bracelets over necklaces? Your best bet is buying her one from The Sage Vintage! You'll be able to customize the charms based on things your sister likes and surprise her with something that feels 100% personalized.
Nike
Nike Free Metcon 6
Give your bestie since birth this so-comfortable trainer so she can kick bootie in her cardio classes all year long.
Charles Keith
Charles Keith Hannah Textured Fur-Trimmed Mules
I'm biased about fur-trimmed mules because they're almost always comfortable and warm. Plus, they keep outfits casual when anyone is truly going for that "off-duty" look. These mules are suede so they'll add a touch of playful texture to whatever your sister chooses to wear.
The Best Self-Care Gifts For The Busy Sister Who Needs A Staycation
Target
Stanley 40 Oz Quencher Tumbler
Staying hydrated is one of the best ways anyone can boost their wellbeing which is why your busy sister needs a Stanley Tumbler. She can't survive on coffee alone — even if she thinks she can! This tumbler is actually in collaboration with e.l.f. Cosmetics so you know the color payoff and water intake are the best things your sister needs to help power through her day.
Amazon
Allura & Arcia Stress Relief & SelfCare Cards
I'm not going to pretend self-care is easy because there are some days you and your sister aren't going to be in the mood. If it seems like your sister has forgotten how to take care of herself and fan the relaxation fans, surprise her with these stress relief cards. She'll be provided with an activity, it's objectives, and ways to implement it in her daily routine!
Skims
Skims Cozy Knit Unisex Robe
It's time for your sister to have an unparalleled spa day at home. Your only job is to gift her this Cozy Knit Unisex Robe from Skims! Not only is this robe super comfy, but it's also leopard print! I'm telling you now, your sister needs this.
Amazon
Sleepy Tie The Original
Cute hair ties do exist because Sleepy Tie knows your sister needs a new option that doesn't have any rubber exist. She'll be glad to have this as a stocking stuffer because it'll protect her silk press or whatever holiday hairstyles she plans to wear this month.
Amazon
Lucky Bear Spa Headband And Wristlets Set
Your sister's days of getting her hair and the sleeves of her shirt wet are over because you're absolutely getting her this spa set. I would ask, but I already know this is at the top of your gift idea list for her because you can't get enough of it.
Amazon
Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel
My bias is showing with this gift idea, but I'm sharing it anyway! After a while, everyone needs a good eye product to keep dark circles at bay. If your sister is pulling late nights because she's studying or has to wake up with a newborn, she absolutely needs Good Molecules' Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel. It helps bring much needed life back into the under eye area and even plumps the delicate skin back up.
Amazon
The Sleep Guard Pure Silk Sleep Mask
When your sister's done placing her new eye gel on her eyes, make sure she opens the other gift that contains this Pure Silk Sleep Mask. It'll block out light and make sure her eyes stay protected.
Amazon
BEDELITE Satin Pillowcase
While you're at it, throw in a satin pillowcase for good measure. It's good for reducing frizz and breakage, especially if your sister has naturally curly hair or braids!
The Best Home & Kitchen Gifts For The Sister Whose House Is Cozy
Target
KitchenAid 5qt 10-Speed Stand Mixer
If your sister is always on cooking or baking duty, save the strength of her arms by investing in a KitchenAid Stand Mixer. She'll lose her mind over the 10 attachments that come with it and the depth of the mixer itself.
P.S. It's by Hearth & Hand Magnolia which may also score you the best sibling award if she loves this brand!
Target
Tabitha Brown 8qt Digital Air Fryer
Wait, an air fryer under $100 exists and it's available at Target? Yes! Tabitha Brown's exclusive collection has so many goodies, but I just know your sister likely doesn't have time to think about making elaborate meals multiple times per week. Ease her mind with this digital fryer that'll let her roast, dehydrate, or even reheat meals!
Your sister will probably brag about her weekly dinners once she starts using this, but she can because "that's her business!"
Bola Grills
BOLA Grill Master
If your sister wants to practice grilling without lugging around something heavy, she'll absolutely love the BOLA Grill Master. Though it looks tiny, it's filled with amazing features that will make everyone want to gather at her house for barbecues and even Thanksgiving. From it's cast iron grate to the thermometer that reads up to 900° F, this is a gift that keeps on giving!
All Modern
All Modern Paneled Coupe Cocktail Glasses (Set of 4)
How cute are these cocktail glasses? They're going to look so good on your sister's counter during her annual Christmas party.
Ruggable
Ruggable Frances Vintage Teal Blue Rug
If your sister's favorite rug has been dismantled by her pets or kids, she may have mentioned how she's in the market for something that won't show as many stains. Though it's more of a big ticket item, Ruggable's Frances Vintage Teal Blue Rug was made with your sister in mind.
It's one of those rugs that instantly gives a room personality and gets better with time. It's spill-proof, but she can still wash it if she feels like it needs to be refreshed!
Sweet July
Sweet July Alma Throw
It's cozy season so your sister needs a couple of throw blankets to choose from. I actually can't get enough of Sweet July's Alma design because it's so abstract and goes with any design aesthetic. It's also reversible so she can lighten or darken the mood as she sees fit!
Baloo
Baloo Weighted Blanket
I've recently invested in a weighted blanket and I'm not sure what I was doing before. This takes sleepmaxxing to another level so I'm sure your sister will appreciate it! It's sustainably made, but that. doesn't mean it's not washer friendly! She'll enjoy how easy it is to fall asleep and clean one of the best blankets on the market. Again, trust me!
Piglet
Piglet Botanical Green Gingham Linen Duvet Cover
Green is one of the best calming colors IMO and it's probably why I can't get enough of it during this chapter of my life. If your sister's been looking to create an oasis in her bedroom, she'll appreciate this gingham linen duvet cover from Piglet. It works well during every season and is free from harmful dyes or chemicals. Sounds like a solid win in my book!
Amazon
Preston Lane The Deluxe 3-Wick Candle
What's a home decor gift without a scented candle? I'm not sure I want to find out so don't make your sister suffer! Gift her the warm and inviting scents of bergamot, fresh lime, Jasmine, tuberose, sandalwood, and cedar. It'll even match her new throw or weighted blanket.
Target
Threshold Medium Faux Wood Table Lamp
I know your sister spends her nights reading a book instead of binge watching new shows sometimes so make sure she has a cute lamp on her bedside table. I personally have this same lamp on my desk and it's so soothing when I'm working in the morning instead of opening my blinds or turning on a bright overhead light.

I'll never forget when my sister gifted me a pregnancy journal when I was pregnant with my son. I still have it and love reviewing different moments from it. Plus, I always think about how it was such a nice gesture from my sister.
From one former pregnant mama to your eyes and ears, this is something you can give your sister if she's currently expecting. She'll always look at it and remember the moment she unwrapped it.
Amazon
MomCozy Breast Therapy Packs

Amazon
Got You a Little Something Happy Hour Activity Cards
I so wish I would've discovered these activity cards during my sister's last pregnancy, but all that matters is that they're in my orbit now!
