Holiday Gifts Under $10
In place of traditional holiday gift guides, that feature multiple products by multiple brands, I’m doing something a little different. I’ll be rounding up my favourite presents for the season, but each day I’ll be showcasing a different company. Make sure to check back daily as I’ll have a new brand with my must-have holiday gifts for the season.
Hard Candy is one of those brands that’s perfect for any tween or teen in your life. Not only do they offer a wide range of holiday gifts, of both beauty and makeup, its accessible and affordable. Most of the gift sets are under $10 and can be found at your local Wal-Mart. Everything comes beautifully packaged in cute, playful and girly designs.
Hard Candy Glam Kit is perfect for makeup beginners. If features 9 neutral, plums and greys in an adorable pink palette. Each shade is soft, applies seamlessly and is fairly pigmented. It’s not truly opaque, yet provides a sheer wash of colour that isn’t too bold or dramatic.
