I’ll admit, shopping for any holiday or special occasion stresses me out. I want to buy the perfect gift but I always seem to question myself. Is it practical? Is is the right color? Do they already have something like this? What if they never use it? I could go on and on, but I’m sure you get the picture.
I put together a gift guide to help you find some last minute gifts for your girlfriend’s and to alleviate some of your stress. Heck, you can even sneak this into your loved one’s inbox and get that texture spray you’ve had your eye on. A subtle or not so subtle hint, right?!
And let me note really quick, most of these can be be found easily on Amazon or taking a trip to Ulta.
So lets take a look! I’ve divided the items into categories to hopefully make it easier for you. I’ve also posted links to help you order it faster. Some links are affiliate links and I make a small commission if you purchase
