practical gifts

practical gifts here's some practical gift ideas. basically gifts that people wouldn't necessarily buy for themselves but they'll actually like and they'll actually use. consider myself a pretty good gift giver. I feel like I'm always trying to give people something that like levels up something that they already have or like makes something easier for them. starting off with the gifts that I have like so many times. it's this MZ Wallace Zoey cosmetic bag. this is the superior toiletry bag. it just puts all other bags to shame. number one, it is huge. it fits so much. it's lined with pockets on the inside and outside so you're able to keep everything completely organized standing up when you're traveling. they're also a high quality makeup bag. they last the test of time. I've had this one for three years. it's one of those things like I feel like people have had the same makeup bag for years and they have no desire to get another one because like my makeup bag is in here, it stays in here, it's in there. but what if we elevated it, upgraded it so that everything can stay organized, it looks cute and it's functional and it lasts a really long time. another one of my favorite practical gifts to give is when I know people that have a Dyson Airwrap. I can buy them upgraded or new attachments to put on top of their old Dyson. I have a really old Dyson, I got this one when they originally just had the short barrels and they were in two different directions. I went online and you can get the long one that goes both directions and it fits on top of this Dyson. It's one of those things like I don't necessarily need it but it makes my life easier. Makes my Dyson easier to use. It's just such a good gift idea. Another example is just the large round brush attachment. This is like three times the size of the one that comes with the Dyson. I also love giving makeup tools, makeup brushes as gifts. There's something that people are going to actually use and they might not spend money on themselves. Like you think about it like you get $100 brush set for Sephora. I don't want to go in and buy a brush. Like I want to go in and get a new blush, get a new eyeshadow, get a new mascara. But people never upgrade their brushes. They're like real techniques x Kelli Anne Sewell collab. The everything cream and the everything powder brushes are going to be on so many of my gift guides this year. Like just get ready. They're super easy to use. They're really high quality. It's one of those things that people don't know that they need them until they have them. And then they just think like getting people something like brushes that elevate their makeup routine. Like so that they don't have to spend money on them is a really great gift idea. I also love giving luxury body care as a gift. I feel like it's one of those things like people just won't spend the money on it for themselves. But if they get it as a gift, it's amazing. It's like, you know, they got it at Walgreens works just fine. But like Tata Harper is going to be one of those brands for me this year. This is the revitalizing body oil. I am obsessed with it. It is so insanely good. I got knee surgery and my knee was so dry. This transformed my knee. It really does work. It's super luxe. It's thick. It smells amazing. Another really great example of this category is the Crown Affair stupid hair clips. I call them the stupid hair clips because they're stupid expensive, but I love giving them as gifts. Especially if you have someone that you know loves to wear claw clips and gets packs from Amazon or from Target, but these ones never break. They have the internal reinforcements so they actually stay in your hair. This whole thing will hold up all of my hair. Holds up all of my friends' hair who have more hair than me. They just actually work. They're like the superior like luxe version of an Amazon or like a Target claw clip. And because they're stupid expensive, like no one wants to buy them, but they make an amazing gift.
