Stocking Filler Gift Guide

One of my favourite things to shop for at Christmas is stocking fillers and there are so many amazing products out there to choose from. Today's post is my little guide to finding the perfect stocking filler.
Stocking Filler Gift Guide
Within this stocking filler gift guide, you will find everything from skincare and makeup to perfume and sleep aids to everything in between.  Most of these products can be found on the High Street and many of them already on sale.

The first item comes from Kat Von D with the Big Saintly Lashes Gift Set (£37) and this gift set contains two full-size products inside a beautiful white and red gift box, with its silver foil branding.

Inside this gift set is a full size of the Kat Von D Go Big or Go Home Mascara and a 30ml size of the Kat Von D Saint Eau de Parfum.  The 'Saint' Eau de parfum features notes of warm vanilla, jasmine petals and musk which is absolutely stunning as a scent, quite the feminine fragrance which is perfect for daytime wear. The 'Go Big or Go Home' Mascara is powered by plant-based fats and it comes with quite the big bushy wand to give volume to the lashes.

Next from Balm Kind, we have the 3D Limited Edition Christmas Tree (£13). This tree hanging gift contains a full-size tube of our award-winning Alpine Rose & Lysine Lip Balm (10ml).
Stocking Filler Gift Guide
This formula contains a nourishing blend of antioxidant-rich fruit and flower oils and extracts with an essential amino acid, hydrating oat lipids and soothing liquorice root which work to nourish, soothe and protect even the most parched winter lips.

From Emma Hardie, we have Merrily Moringa (£10) which I featured in this post.  Anyone who reads my blog will know that I am a huge fan of Emma Hardie and in particular the Merrily Moringa Cleansing Balm.

The perfect stocking filler, secret Santa or something to hang on your tree, this Merrily Moringa kit is one to grab. Inside you will find Emma Hardie's Award-winning Moringa Cleansing Balm and Dual-Action Cleansing Cloth in a deluxe travel size (15ml).

One brand who always has some amazing gifts for Christmas is Burt's Bees, which I dedicated a post to (here).  With stocking fillers. Burt's Bees have some amazing tree ornaments in the shape of baubles (£6.99).
Stocking Filler Gift Guide
Inside the gold-coloured bauble are two products. The first product is the Beeswax Peppermint lip balm which gives a lovely coolness to the lips and it is designed to moisturise and hydrate your lips. The second product inside the bauble is the Burt's Bees Hand Salve and with its fresh herb scent, this hand salve is used to bring hydration and moisturise to hard-working hands, particularly good if you have dry skin.

Next, we have the Morning Glamour Satin Pillowcase (£12.99). If you have read my blog in recent months, you will have noticed that I am a convert to silk pillowcases.
Stocking Filler Gift Guide
Available in different patterns, I chose the Leopard Print option and absolutely love it. As you might expect, the Satin pillowcase comes with many benefits, some of which include helping to eliminate hair loss, snagging, reducing sleep wrinkles and creases and they also ensure that any beauty products you apply to your skin before bed are not transferred to the pillow, but instead stay on your skin. 

Again with Kat Von D is the cutest cracker (£20). Titled Love Big or Go Home Beauty Cracker Gift Set.
Packaged inside the matte black cracker you will find two Kat Von D products. The first product is a 3ml sample of the Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in the shade Lovecraft. Lovecraft is best described as a ‘mauve pink nude’ and it is a shade I really like and will wear.  The second product is a full-sized Go Big and Go Home Volumizing Mascara, which is featured above in another Kat Von D giftset.

From REN Clean Skincare we have some of the cutest gifts this Christmas and one of those gifts includes this Now To Sleep Stocking Filler (£12).
Stocking Filler Gift Guide
I first featured Now To Sleep on my blog over a year ago (here) and is described as being a scent which will send you to deeper sleep. Enriched with a unique blend of pure essential oils, it works to restore calm and pre-sleep tranquillity, so that you and your skin can renew and regenerate naturally. Within this stocking filler are two 10ml tubes of product.

For those who love natural skincare, we have the Antipodes Beauty Icons gift set (£38). I am quite a fan of Antipodes as a brand and have featured them on my blog quite a few times over the past few years.
Stocking Filler Gift Guide
Inside the box, you will find three luxurious moisturising products which are designed to replenish tired and thirsty skin. The first product is the water-based Apostle Skin-Brightening Serum whose job is to target pigmentation and brighten skin. Then we have the international bestseller Kiwi Seed Oil Eye Cream and I already adore this cream, its job is to soothe skin while reducing the signs of ageing. The final product is the nutrient-rich Vanilla Pod Hydrating Day Cream featuring antibacterial manuka honey.

Caudalie is a brand I absolutely adore and one of my most favourite products from the brand is the Beauty Elixir and this stocking filler is just perfect (£12).
Stocking Filler Gift Guide
This Elixir, once spritzed, fills the air with notes of benzoin, myrrh, orange, blossom, grape and rose, all of which work to give your complexion a rosy glow. Add to that astringent rosemary and the stimulating essence of lemon balm and mint and the scent is really quite incredible and it is of course really gentle on the skin.  The ingredients coming together to smooths away fine lines tightens pores and gives the complexion an instant boost of radiance, helps calm redness and not forgetting that this product can also be used to set makeup! 

Feelunique has a whole host of Stocking Fillers and whether you prefer makeup, skincare or fragrance, there is something for everyone.  I have a beautifully packaged mini Jimmy Choo perfume.

Packaged inside a holographic box, the fragrance Fever is described as being a hot floral fragrance, a bit sweet and with a dark background. With top notes of black plum, litchee, grapefruit; heart notes of heliotrope and base notes of benzoin, sandalwood, tonka bean, what I love about this fragrance is how natural the scent of plum is when the fragrance is first applied and then as it dries down the fruit notes make their mark to create quite a fragrance and one I would purchase a full size of.

The third and final stocking filler from Kat Von D within this gift guide is the Everlasting love Liquid Lipstick Set (£13.50).
Stocking Filler Gift Guide
This set features six liquid lipsticks in the shades Lovecraft a Mauve Pink Nude, Hawkind which is also a Nude, Nocturna which is a Deep Grape, Bow N Arrow which is more of a light Nude, Nahz Fur Atoo which is a stunning Blood Crimson and finally we have Bauhaus which is a Deep Rasberry shade. This set makes a great gift for anyone who is a fan of the Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks.

The Pretty Little Present from Too Faced (£14) is one of the cutest stocking fillers within this gift guide and one that is a must for any Too Faced fan.
Stocking Filler Gift Guide
Inside the beautiful box you will find two products. The first is a Travel-sized Better Than Sex Mascara.  This mascara has one of the best wands I have ever used and it is described as being an hourglass brush with extra stiff bristles which work to ensure even coverage of carbon black pigment. This mascara is also enriched with collagen to create thick, curled lashes and protective acacia Senegal tree extract which will hydrate the lashes to keep them in optimum condition.  The second product is a travel-sized rich & dazzling High-Shine Sparkling Lip Gloss in shade Sunset Crush.  These lipglosses are non-sticky and as well as giving multi-dimensional colours, these glosses are infused with light-reflecting glitters and natural oils for a nourished, comfortable colour.

The final product within this stocking filler gift guide comes from Murad, a brand I am absolutely loving to get to know right now. Glowy Vibes (£10) features a Hydro-Dynamic™ Ultimate Moisture in a travel-ready size.
Stocking Filler Gift Guide
Described as being the most hydrating moisturiser Murad has ever created. The non-greasy, easily absorbed formula contains some amazing ingredients which include avocado, sunflower and olive fruit which work to enhance skin’s moisture levels, and a collagen support complex to boost skin’s resilience and plump dehydrated skin.

So there you have my 2019 Stocking Filler gift guide and if you are wondering what to grab as those last-minute gifts as you head to the shops over the next few days, hopefully, I have given you some food for thought.
