Making a stocking stuffer list for all of us who need a little holiday inspo. And yes, I fully admit some of these “stocking stuffers” absolutely do not fit in a stocking. We’re using the term loosely, okay? 😅🎄

Between school drop-offs, a full workday, and a to-do list that could rival a horror movie script, I don’t have time for a 1,297-step face routine. Over the years, these are the beauty MVPs that have earned a permanent spot on my shelf—multi-taskers that keep me looking polished in minutes, not hours.

Who says spooky season has an expiration date? My heart’s forever doing the Monster Mash - give me all the pumpkins, potions, and perfectly moody vibes year-round. 🎃🖤

I was basically raised on tinsel and twinkle lights, so keeping the Christmas magic alive is in my DNA. These are my must-haves for maximum holiday sparkle. Caution: side effects may include sudden bursts of cheer and uncontrollable humming of “Jingle Bells.”

Meet my latest little gems 💎 fresh discoveries I didn’t know I needed but now can’t live without. A mix of beauty boosts, work upgrades, and everyday happy-makers currently fueling my obsession.

My makeup routine might be a 5-minute dash, but skincare? That’s where I get serious. I’ve tried it all (self-proclaimed product junkie over here 🙋🏼‍♀️), but these face favorites actually changed the game for me—and my skin! For reference: my skin type is normal and mature with a tendency towards dry.

Shhh…insider scoop! Skip the tourist traps—here’s where you can have an amazing Napa Valley experience with your family (no French Laundry reservation required).
