We all know that one friend with a stockpile of beauty products to rival any Sephora within a 5-mile radius. They have just about every new product the moment they launch, create alerts for limited-edition beauty Advent calendars, have a stack of Sephora Rewards points that'll make anyone green with envy, and of course, their hair, skin, and makeup is always — seriously, always — perfectly intact.

So, when you want to show your beauty-obsessed friend a little love on a special occasion (or even an average day), what do you get the person that has everything the beauty aisle could offer? Sure, you could go a with a “beauty” gift that has absolutely nothing to do with beauty, but considering the fact that they would rather use their last $20 to buy a tube of MAC’s Ruby Woo or a hyped-about makeup gift set over anything else, it probably won’t be put to good use.

Instead, grab them something that they’ll truly treasure with some of our favorite beauty gifts. From actual beauty products to beauty-inspired home goods and everything in between, check out the gifts that your beauty-loving bestie will endlessly thank you for (and actually mean it).

Naturally Serious

Gentle yet effective, this overnight oil uses 2% vegan retinol to smoothen the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Sunflower, soybean, chia, and rosehip oils also hydrate and nourish skin, staving off those "retinol uglies." Great for more sensitive skin types or those looking to finally try a retinol regimen.

For the Gel Mani Fan
Auda.b Glam Nail Care Set
auda.B

Keeping your nails maintained in between manicure appointments can get pretty challenging — just think about how many times you're drying out your cuticles from hand-washing and chores, and let's also not forget how easily our nails can chip or break. This set helps give nails a fresh, gel-like look and feel, while also being super nourishing on damaged nail beds.

For the Pedi DIY-er
Footnanny Hemp Extract Spa Treatment Set
Footnanny

After a long day on our feet, we all wish we could get an indulgent pedicure. For times you can't get to the nail salon, this revitalizing (and softening!) three-step home foot care set features a scrub, cream, and ultra-hydrating salve for especially rough areas. The results: smooth, crack-free, sandal-worthy feet.

For the Curly Girl
Aquis Original Hair Turban
Aquis

Did you know that drying your hair with a traditional bath towel can actually cause breakage? Protect your (and your giftee’s) strands with a microfiber hair turban, which gently dries and prevents frizz more effectively than regular terrycloth. This one by Aquis dries quickly, and comes in lots of cute colors.

For Gals On the Go
Dyson Corrale Cord-Free Hair Straightener
Dyson

It just makes sense that the makers of cordless vacuums found a way to remove cords (well, sort of!) from hair straighteners, too. The much-coveted Corrale straightener can be used with its cord for endless straightening, but can also be charged for cordless use for up to 30 minutes. 

Another price-tag justification: It has flexible plates that require less heat and prevent 50% of the breakage caused by other flat irons.

Clean Logic Exfoliating Body Scrubber
Clean Logic

Your beauty fanatic will definitely appreciate this body-softening pack of six scrubbers (which is very budget-friendly, by the way).
