Ah, the elusive stocking stuffer. This is always the item I have the worst time shopping for! Whether it’s really for someone’s stocking or it’s just a gift of appreciation to a trusted babysitter or a child’s teacher, this small-but-special gift is just plain hard to find! Fortunately for you, I have scoped out three great skin care items that also make great stocking stuffers!
Stocking Stuffer # 1: Holiday Lip Balms from Vintage Sister
These super-moisturizing, lip-lickin’ good lip balms come in eye-catching little tins, and you can get this Holiday gift set with three special holiday flavors – Gingerbread, Sugar Plum, and Candy Cane for just $10! They are packaged in the larger tin shown above. Eye candy and lip candy! I have this set and it is awesome. It’s a great gift for the lip-balm lover in your life!
Stocking Stuffer # 2: SoftHands from Softress:
This is my new favorite hand moisturizer. You just leave your hands a little damp after washing, spray on a small amount of SoftHands, rub it in, and – voila! – soft smooth hands! The oil absorbs quickly and didn’t leave my hands feeling greasy like lotion does. Best of all, it lasts through multiple hand washings! SoftHands’ unique blend of oils really soothes abused hands and keeps cuticles amazingly soft and smooth. The exclusive formula is built on Macadamia oil, a mildly antibacterial oil that helps skin heal faster from dryness and minor irritation. It’s also certified Vegan and contains ONLY edible plant oils and Softress’ antioxidant complex of natural vitamins C and E. So it’s safe for the giftee and the giver! And at just $13.50, the price is perfect too!
Stocking Stuffer # 3: Rodan + Fields Enhancements Lip and Body MicroDermabrasion
Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields, the geniuses behind ProActiv, are also the creators of this fabulous MicroDermabrasion set, Enhancements. I for one am a big fan of microdermabrasion in all its forms, and this set does not disappoint. The lip microderm comes in an easy-to-apply stick – you use it apply like a lip balm, then wipe it off with a wet cloth to reveal your smooth, youthful-looking lips. Likewise, the body microderm resembles a stick of deodorant. Just apply it all over your body in the shower and rinse off. It exfoliates with skin-friendly polyethylene beads, cleanses with a mild-surfactant, and conditions with effective moisturizers. This set is a little pricier at $46.00, but it will certainly please whoever is lucky enough to receive it.
These skin care gifts are sure to be a hit this season! If you’ve been extra-nice, why not pick one up for yourself?

All of them sound wonderful.
This is a great list! I have found some great stocking stuffers at Garden Girl. They have great smelling products that come in adorable bottles. Plus, the don’t use parabens, petroleum or unnecessary chemicals. You can find them at http://www.gardengirlskincare.com. I’m hoping for the booties in my stocking!
Jenny,
This is a great list and I certainly love your #3 stocking stuffer pick. Their skin care line is amazing and it has actually changed my skin. I have used all the products in the Rodan + Fields line. It’s the only brand I will use.
