What: Glasshouse Fragrances Car Fragrance Gift Set

"For under $100, the Glasshouse Fragrances Car Fragrance Gift Set is the perfect gift for your mate who's a bit too obsessed with her car.

It contains a shiny black car diffuser alongside 2 scent disk refills - one for Christmas, and one for summer - and then the cutest snowglobe keychain.

Bonus points that it's in funky triangle packaging - so they'll never be able to figure out what it is once it's wrapped under the tree!"

What: L'Occitane Almond Christmas Collection

"To all my friends, family and my dog’s grandma (mum that’s you if you’re reading this), please add this to your cart immediately.

As one of the thousands of people who can’t shower without the sensorial experience of the  L'Occitane almond shower oil, this would be my under $100 pick.

It comes with the hand cream but most importantly a 100ml size of the L’Occitane Almond Milk Concentrate - and do I really need to say any more besides I’m going to smell amazing all year?"

For the makeup lovers in your life who are in need of some new tools, this brush and sponge set ensures a seamless base application all wrapped up in a cute Chrsitmas kit. Perfect for liquid powder blushes, foundations, highlighters and creams.

Designer Brands Treat Yo'self Complexion Kit

If I had a Kris Kringle that had a $20 budget this is what I'd ask for. If you're tired of reaching down your candle jar with scissors trying to trim your wicks on a weird angle this handy trimmer is the answer. This essential candle care accessory has an angled design to reach into even almost empty candles. With a 7mm thick base that ensures your wicks are always trimmed to the perfect length. Rounded plates catch the removed wick ends, so your candle is always in top condition.

Gifting a loved one who is travelling for the holidays with one a cult cleansing balm is an icon move and one their face will very much appreciate. The Alpha-H luxurious balm-to-oil cleanser melts away makeup, SPF, dirt, and impurities without stripping or drying the skin. I'll take two thanks.
