I'm kicking off my holiday gift guides this season with gift ideas for the beauty obsessed. I've rounded up beauty gifts ranging from perfect stocking stuffers to big ticket items your recipient would be more than ecstatic to receive.

Beautycounter, a skincare brand I love and trust, was coming out with a new skincare line to address these ... Read more...
