Holiday Gift Guide 2022

Gift Guide for the Beauty & Skin Guru

• • The Hot Mess Ice Roller:: I use this legit every single morning – it gets rid of ALL the bloat & is also very nice after a few cocktails, LOL.
  • The Hot Shave Razor: OK hear me out – face shaving may sound weird if you haven’t done it before BUT it’s the BEST exfoliator and all of my products lay so well afterwards. This is a great stocking stuffer and one of those gifts someone doesn’t even know that they needed!
  • Kosas Ready in 5 Set: I’m obsessed with ALL THINGS Kosas – it’s my new favorite makeup brand that also takes it up a notch because it’s skincare too. Their gift sets are amazing.
  • Summer Fridays Lip Balm Set: These are like BUTTER and I cannot go without them. Such a great stocking stuffer too :)..their whole site is 20% off for black Friday too. 
  • Summer Fridays Roller Ball Fragrance Trio: I have and LOVE these. One commitment I made in 2022 was to go non-toxic with my perfume and these do the trick. They smell incredible!
  • SLIP Silk Pillowcase: This is the beauty secret that everyone needs. I’ve started to travel with mine because I see that much of a difference when I have a silk pillowcase vs. not – it takes away the sheet wrinkles from your face and allows the products to stay on your face vs. be absorbed. 
  • Shark Blow Dryer: I’ve heard AMAZING things about this being the Dyson dupe & it’s half the price which is amazing and it has no heat damage to your hair either. 
  • Wellbel: This is the hair, skin & nails supplement I swear by & so many others do as well. It has made my hair & nails stronger and thicker which is amazing! Code ALYSIA10 for 10% off a single purchase or AlysiaSub10 for 10% off a subscription. 
  • Kosterina Skincare Starter Set: I’m OBSESSED with all things Kosterina, but most specifically their Extra Virgin Olive Oil Face Oil. I use it with my ice roller/gua sha every morning and my skin has never been better. They have the starter set with their extra virgin olive oil balm as well which can go on skin, lips, etc. Use code ALYSIA15 for 15% off!
