Is a makeup palette a good gift?

Because makeup can be so individualized, giving it as a present can be challenging. Brights, neutrals, matte, glitter…the possibilities are unlimited. Giving them a palette, which provides them access to a variety of items and the chance to try something new they otherwise might not have, is therefore always a good idea.

What can I put in a makeup gift?

Here are some suggestions for items to put in your makeup bag, but you can do what feels right to you!
– Makeup
– Makeup Removal
– Lipstick or chapstick
– Nail Care Kit
– Pedicure Tools
– Lotion
– Sunscreen

What do you put in a makeup gift basket?

Lip glosses, eyeshadow palettes, mascara, makeup remover, and even a set of travel brushes are some basic items to pack. Headbands for wearing while doing makeup and gift cards so they can purchase their preferred products are possible additional inclusions. Avoid using foundation, powders, concealers, and blushes when applying makeup.
