Holidays are stressful at the best of times so try throwing in a global pandemic and learning how to coordinate Zoom invites and things are stressful in a new kinda way. We may not be stuffed alongside the kids’ table or have to wait in line for the bathroom in our own home, but like our new methods for spending time with those we love, 2020 makes way for new ways of gifting.
For an at-home holiday, we’re making self-care the priority, expressed in shared moments with your inner-most circle, days set aside for DIY ~ahhhh~, and crowding together virtually for the NYE countdown. When we all need it most, opt for feel-good beauty and sharable self-care for a fabulous festive time spent together–virtually or at home.
FOR THE BABE WHO “ALREADY HAS EVERYTHING”:
You know the one. They’ve already treated themselves to every it-product and beauty tool this year and now it seems there’s nothing missing from their arsenal! Before you buy them another set of fleece socks, check out our meticulously-picked round up of gifts that are perfectly practical and designed to deliver much-needed pampering.
THE BLO GIFT CARD
Gift cards can seem like an easy way out. We know. But giving them a Blo gift card for a blow out (especially with added-on treatments) offers them a much-deserved moment of care and confidence that delivers a glow from the inside out! Make it even more special and book your blow outs together for some bonding time when we need it most.
COLOR WOW DREAM COAT
Gift them glass hair. As an at-home mini Keratin treatment, this anti-frizz miracle smooths strands into the shiniest they’ve ever been. Feather-light and never greasy, moisture is repelled, and smoothness lasts 3-4 washes. They’ll definitely be using this one on the regular.
SAVVY SLEEPERS PILLOW CASE
Revered as a nightly spa treatment for hair and skin, this ultra-smooth satin pillowcase protects blow outs and eyelash extensions while promising anti-aging benefits to skin! Surely, the Babe who has everything, would love to receive one of these!
UNITE RE:UNITE TREATMENT
A gift that can dramatically restore and transform damaged, overworked hair? Surely, no one can top that. This deeply reparative treatment serves strands with a protein-based complex of nutrients and antioxidants that smooths hair cuticles and strengthens the inner cortex.
UNITE ULUXURY SHAMPOO & CONDITIONER
When in doubt, a luxurious shampoo and conditioner duo will always be well-received. We heart the ULuxury set most for its dreamy mixture of fruits, argan oil, organic Hawaiian white honey, and crushed pearl powder that leaves hair hydrated and nutritiously revitalized.
UNITE WEEKENDER SHAMPOO
Make their other fave products work better! A perfect weekend treat, this shampoo clarifies hair from environmental elements and previous heavy product usage–giving locks the perfect reset for styling.
FOR THE HOST OF THE HOUSEHOLD
While they may not be cooking a 25-person turkey this year, the host of the household holds it down for the holidays no matter the size (2-bedroom apartments included). From trying out a new fabulous dish to nailing every decoration, this Babe is on-the-go so gifts are quick and easy, but high on performance just like them.
GLO CREAM STAY SHADOW STICK IN LATTE
Last minute makeup’s made easy with a quick sweep of color that stays put for 12-hours. Whether they use it as a base or liner, this crayon is a true multitasker. We especially heart the shade “Latte” for a shimmery, neutral tone that’s a total crowd-pleaser.
UNITE U:DRY SHAMPOO PLUS+
This dry shampoo goes the extra mile for quick absorbency and ease when washing has fallen down the list of priorities. With an instantly refreshing and odor-resolving formula, hair styling before dinner will be the easiest thing they do all day.
UNITE BOING DEFINING CURL CREAM
A quick curl definer for naturally curly strands in need of finesse. Complete with coconut and argan oils for a brief tropical getaway, give your host the gift of a frizz-free style that they don’t have to work all day for.
COLOR WOW DREAM COCKTAILS IN KALE, CARB AND COCONUT
Save the wine for yourself and gift a real cocktail. These bionic tonics are perfect for a hair happy hour when it’s time to unwind. Available in Kale (for breakage), Carb (for volume), and Coconut (for moisture) for every hair need.
FOR THE (VIRTUAL) PARTY GUEST
Zoom-ready hair and makeup is much different than the IRL stuff: it’s got to be bigger and brighter to really dazzle on the screen. For the beauty guru on your list who’ll be the first to sign onto the NYE party call, gift them products that’ll really shine through the Zoom invite. Only half the outfit required.
KITSCH RUCHED CHIFFON HEADBAND
On-screen, hair is the star of the show! As opposed to a scrunchie or clip, headbands are best for webcam beauty as they’ll be front and center the whole time. Gift them a chic, classy band that’s perfect from day to night, now that both of those seem to be spent in front of the computer.
GLO SHINE CREAM LIP CRAYON
With beauty and care in mind, this goodness-packed lip crayon is perfect for the party night-of and the next day when lips need extra TLC post-midnight champagne. High shine color meets antioxidants, vitamins C and E, as well as conditioning mango oil and shea butter. Opt for a luxuriously glossy shade like “Bloom” for the perfect pop on-screen.
UNITE GONE IN 7SECONDS ROOT TOUCH UP SPRAY
Root coverage has been a bit touch-and-go this year. But, just in time for the most important season for good hair, UNITE has brought out their newest it-product: a temporary, high-concealing and easy-blending spray to get roots off the to-do list, at least for the holidays.
UNITE EXPANDA DUST
For bringing the volume to any party, just a few puffs of this dust gives strands an extra thickening lift while giving your hard earned style a helping hold. Volume can be heard seen through any WIFI strength.
GLO SHINE GLOSS TRIO
These full-size glosses bring high shine and subtle pink-y hues to lips when bold lipsticks need not apply. Packed with antioxidants, lip conditioners, and mineral pigments, these non-stick glosses are the perfect swipe for any shine lover.
GLO WARM SMOKEY EYE MAKEUP KIT
Trust us, everyone’s been waiting for a reason to do a smokey eye. It’s not quite work- appropriate and never gets the attention it deserves at the grocery store checkout. So, when we say they’re ready for an easy-to-apply statement look… this is the set to snap up.
FOR THE SELF CARE QUEEN
Whether they set aside a whole day for self-care or like to sprinkle a little self- love into their weekly routines, these gifts are perfect for creating zen moments at-home when needed. Best paired with friends, family, or roommates for a DIY holiday spa date at home.
UNITE 7SECONDS MASQUE
Choosing anything from Unite’s award-winning 7SECONDS line makes gift giving easy, but their masque is definitely the top choice for any self-care maven. Know anyone that wants intense shine, softness, and moisture that conditions and protects from further dryness?
COLOR WOW DREAM FILTER PRE-SHAMPOO MINERAL REMOVER SPRAY
Let them go into the new year mineral and pollutant free! This pre-shampoo treatment works like a magnet against dulling minerals like iron, calcium, and copper leaving hair brighter and silkier. Plus, if they’re lucky enough to be poolside for the holidays, this is the ultimate post-chlorine treatment.
KITSCH SPA HEADBAND
A mega-soft microfiber headband that works for any step in their routine: DIY spa day, half-awake morning makeup, or eating a dozen cookies during an 8-hour Hallmark movie marathon. Just like any self-care queen, it’s a multi-tasker with relaxation as the top priority.
KITSCH SATIN SLEEP SCRUNCHIES
These are a nighttime necessity for any Blo Babe. Made of silky-soft satin, these sleep scrunchies prevent breakage and creasing during your 8 hours so strands wake up frizz-free and un-crimped. Why else do we love them? They extend the life of your blow outs too!
AQUIS RAPID DRY LISSE HAIR TURBAN
Made with Aquitex™, a proprietary moisture-wicking fabric, this gives wet hair its own ahhh-mazing self-care moment. Less breakage, 50% faster drying time, and there’s 10 color ways to choose from? If they got hair, this one’s a must.
