Beauty Bloggerati Spotlight: Holiday Beauty Gift Guide

To supplement my gift picks, I recently asked my fellow Daily Makeover Beauty Bloggerati to weigh in on their favorite stocking stuffers under $15, and this is what they had to say:I love the L'Oreal Clean Artiste Makeup Remover Pen ($11). It cleans up all liquid liner mishaps in a flash and doesn't irritate my eye area. Best of all, the fact that it's called Clean Artiste, as opposed to simply Clean Artist, is so Hollywood Montrose from Mannequin. -Beauty Blogging Junkie
I love anything from E.L.F. (Eyes Lips Face) for stocking stuffers, because they have entire kits of makeup (for example, a standard/waterproof mascara, eye liner, and eye brightening pencil) for $3. Their individual products are only $1 each, so you could literally fill a stocking with products, without having to go over $10. Is there anything better than that? -Makeover Momma
I love the mini Sephora palettes. They offer such incredible value - this one has 8 eyeshadows, four glosses and a blush for $15! -The Jet Set Girls
I love to give essential beauty items to my step-daughter to stock her up. Yes to Carrots Lip Butter ($3.69), Gillette Venus razor and refill cartridges ($10.99-15), Neutrogena Body Oil ($13) and Pantene Pro-V 5 Minute Strengthening Mask ($4.50) are a few of my favorite stocking stuffers. -A Mom in Red High Heels
Everyone in my family loves the single note essential oils from Aveda ($13) especially the eucalyptus. There are so many ways to use them; but we keep them by the bedside and dab a few drops between our hands and inhale before bedtime. It's part of our relaxation ritual. -The Jet Set Girls
Nude Lips is an adorable stocking stuffer for all lips – this organic cupuacu and Tahitian vanilla monoi lip balm melts at body temperature ($14) for the prettiest gloss and most kissable lips. -Talking Makeup
What are some of your go-to beauty stocking stuffers?

Beauty Bloggerati Spotlight: Best Light and Dark Nail Polishes
"My favorite go to color is OPI's Bubble Bath. It goes with any outfit and it's the perfect shade of white/pink! For dark polish, I am currently obsessed with OPI's Here Today...Aragon Tomorrow from the EspaƱa line. It's is a deep deep forresty emerald green and totally fun for the fall!" -Lisa, These Lips Are Made For Glossin'
"I found two new polishes backstage at Fashion Week that I’m loving right now. CND Putty is an a very light beige. Sally Hansen Insta Dry in Blazing Blue...a deep midnight blue." -Rachel, DailyMakeover.com
"My favorite light polish is the mix of Essie Marshmallow and Ballet Slippers (Marshmallow goes on first). It's the famed combo that all the editors wore in The Devil Wears Prada (the book), and I have yet to find a light polish that makes my nails look as lit from within. My favorite dark is NARS Chinatown. It's a much deeper maroon than the bold Mr.-Big-red-wall-red you'd expect from the name." -Amber, Beauty Blogging Junkie
"I love Essie Ballet Slippers for a pretty, sophisticated look! I just purchased my first dark polish in about 15 years today and I love it. It's Sally Hansen Insta-Dri in Cinna-Snap. It reminds me of a glass of super dark merlot." -Sarah, Hair Thursday
"For dark, I like the Sephora by OPI 212-Sephora. It's black, but has sparkles, so it's not totally goth. For light, I think it's hard to top the classic Essie Ballet Slippers." -Anne, The Jet Set Girls
"I'm not a huge fan of light colors but recently I picked up Sephora by OPI's Under My Trench Coat. This is as light as I get, this shade is a very pretty beigey-grey with some gold shimmer. For my dark color, lately I've found myself going with another Sephora by OPI shade Brunette on the Internet. It's a really rich, dark burgundy brown-red. Totally vampy." -Carla, Product Girl
"For light I love Essie's Adore-a-Ball or Revlon's #910 Barely Peach. They hold up very well if you cook a lot. For dark, I am still in love with OPI's Eiffel for this Color from their Fall 2009 Parisian color collection." -Julia, All About The Pretty
"Light: Essie is Waltz the perfect white nail polish, it has no pink undertones what so ever. The pigment is not too thick so it doesn't look like you have a white-out on. The classic white. Dark: MAC in Nocturnelle is the perfect pure black shade. You can't get more black than this one. The classic black." -Marta, Talking Makeup
"Favorite dark: CND Nail Noir - I almost cried during FW when I found out it's going away. I came home and bought 6 bottles online. LOVE this color. Favorite light: Essie Mademoiselle - a favorite of mine since forever! Now my daughter Bailey's hooked on it and my bottle disappears twice as fast!" -Erika, Makeup Bag
"I do a "faux-French" manicure. I use something cheap (like N.Y.C. Color white nail polish) to paint a quick, easy French manicure tip, and then use a little bit of cuticle oil cream (or lip
gloss or olive oil) over top create the "shine effect" of a top coat (it takes seconds to do). I also love Neutrogena's Instant Nail Enhancer to give a quick, healthy shine. I only use dark colors on my toes. I really want to try those Sally Hansen Nail Art Pens, because they look like big, portable markers - so you can paint your toes in a flash." -Bailey, Makeover Momma
"OPI Lincoln Park After Dark is my go-to dark shade. It looks great on a mani or pedi - and really, when is dark purple not an option for Fall/Winter? It's classic! Revlon Sheer Pink is my everyday nude. It adds only a touch of color along with a really great shine." -Tammy, A Mom In Red High Heels

Beauty Bloggerati Spotlight: Cold Weather Moisturizers

I'm in the market for a new winter moisturizer, so I decided to hit up The Beauty Bloggerati for some expert advice.
I've been loving Clarins Multi-Active Day Early Wrinkle Correction Cream. It moisturizes my dry/combo skin without breaking me out. Plus, it never leaves my neck with a gross, sticky feeling. –Karen, Makeup and Beauty BlogI've been using Dermalogica's Active Moist for a little while now, it is perfect for my oily skin especially in warmer weather because it's so light but now that it's getting colder out, I'm trying a richer moisturizer. Right now I'm giving Elizabeth Arden's Prevage Day Ultra Protection Anti-aging Moisturizer with SPF30. So far I'm loving the results I'm seeing. It's soothing some would-be rosacea spots that seem to be trying to form on my skin and some hormonal acne dryness. It is a tad rich for my skin but I'd rather deal with that then some of the other issues I've been battling. –Carla, Product Girl
I have dry skin and when the weather turns cold I really have to baby it. I have found comfort in Liz Earle Superskin Concentrate Serum. While the scent is actually quite strong and not appealing to me, I've learned to accept it because of the wonderful things it does for my skin! –Tammy, A Mom in Red High Heels
I love Chanel Sublimage for cold winter weather. It's a bit heavy for me for my normal to oily skin in the summer, but it's perfect for the blustery windy days of January through March. –Amber, Beauty Blogging Junkie
I am addicted to Fresh Repair & Restore Face Balm normal - combo. Not only does it smell amazing but the texture is beautiful and it melts into your skin leaving it hydrated and supple. –Lisa, These Lips Are Made For Glossin'

I have sensitive dry/combination skin and I absolutely love using Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion with the pump, which I carry in my purse. –Jennifer, Beyond Beauty Basics
I have combination skin: definitely gets oily on my T-zone, and dry in other areas. I also have crazy sensitive skin, so I look like I'm sunburned sometimes (even if it's 10 degrees outside). I have just started using the Lierac Paris Creme Mesolift at night, because it has a ton of antioxidants, and hasn't made me break out. However, a more budget friendly night cream for ladies (that never fails), is just plain ole Vaseline cream (not petroleum). It's affordable, it's simple and it rarely irritates the skin (and it's perfect as an eye cream and lip moisturizer too!) –Bailey, Makeover Momma

Beauty Bloggerati Spotlight: MacGyver-ish Beauty Tips
Last week, as I removed pills from a sweater using a Schick Quattro razor, I started thinking about alternate uses for everyday beauty products. So I called on my fellow Beauty Bloggerati to share their MacGyver-ish beauty tips. Enjoy! In a pinch, Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion works as an eye makeup remover. It even takes off mascara. -Karen, Makeup and Beauty Blog
I use a dry toothbrush to exfoliate snaggy, dry lips. -Amber, Beauty Blogging Junkie
I sometimes use my hair conditioner as a shaving-cream stand-in. A rich conditioner can moisturize and protect skin as well as your favorite shaving cream in a pinch, like when traveling! -Tammy, A Mom In Red High Heels
To keep my cuticles looking great when I don't have my favorite Solar Oil on hand, I use Chapstick or lip balm to moisturize them. -Erika, Makeup Bag
Gauze pads work better than cotton balls (or rounds) to remove polish. The textured surface grabs polish so it slides right off and you won't be left picking off cotton ball fibers! -Erika, Makeup Bag
A black Sharpie is the best quick fix for random gray hairs that seem to come out of nowhere! -Erika, Makeup Bag
For those days when I get really drastic breakouts I soak cotton rounds in warm water and then dip them in baking soda. I then lay the pads flat on my ace for about 10 min. The effect of the baking soda brings all of the zitty yuckiness to the surface and then I take sterile lance and pop the zit. Its a safe way to get rid of pimples on your face and it doesn't leave any scarring. -Lisa, These Lips Are Made For Glossin'
I'll do the old lipstick as blush trick - usually when I notice I'm looking deathly pale and I'm out running around to meetings/errands. I don't usually carry blush in my purse, but I always have lipstick or gloss. I dab a bit on the apples of my cheeks and blend. - Anne, The Jet Set Girls
I love to create my own tinted moisturizer by mixing a pinch of mineral foundation, a drop of makeup primer, and a dime size amount of heavy-duty sunscreen. Perfect for days outside! -Bailey, Makeover Momma
When I really need to blot my skin, I grab a piece of a toilet seat cover from the nearest bathroom (or sometimes tissue paper from a present), and use that to soak up any oil. -Bailey, Makeover Momma
I love applying a bit of shimmer cream lotion to my legs and arms to highlight my skin, but it can also be perfect to highlight your brow bone, cheekbones and even lips in a pinch. I also smooth the residue over the ends of my hair, because it tames flyways, makes hair smooth and gives it a sneaky dose of shine. -Bailey, Makeover Momma
I use Vaseline on my feet before bed. I like to slather it on my heels and then put some really thick socks on. It works better than most foot creams I've tried...and I've tried a lot! -Carla, Product Girl
I take the mascara a step further and use one closer to my brow color. It beefs up sparse brows, covers grays if you have them, and keeps them in line. The only caution is to use a waterproof. You don't want to be caught in the rain and have your brows wash off! -Jen, Beyond Beauty Basics
L'Occitane's shea butter hand cream, cuticle cream, conditioner on ends of hair, tame flyaway hair when dry. -Hope, The Jet Set Girls
