Beauty gift ideas- help!

[Tropicalsunshine]

Please help- I've run out of ideas!
I have a few females friends to buy Christmas presents for- with about a £30 budget. I'd love to get beauty gifts but they need to be things everyone can use- no specific colours etc. Something anyone could use and enjoy
Can anyone think of a product they love that someone might not get themselves. Glow cream? (I'm useless at this!) I did expensive shower stuff last year.
Any ideas?
Thank you

Mavala nail treatment creams, L'Occitane gift sets

Three things I can think of that I’d actually welcome:

Gucci lipstick or balm in a neutral colour. A little over budget.

A box of Celine perfumes in sample size. Ditto.

Community Clothing beanie Just under £30.

But really, even though female, I’d rather have some newly published novels or poetry volumes …

Chanel lipgloss. Lovely packaging so you don't need to wrap!

I love Nuxe their lip balm is the best, I’m sure they will have some gift sets.

Lisa Eldridge lipstick.

Yes a chanel lip gloss!
Nice mask?

Watch Fleur De Force gift guide. She does one of gifts under £60 but a few are less and may go into Black Friday sales.

I got one of my friends a benefit mascara set as I love their mascaras and it's something most women wear and colour isn't an issue. I've previously bought Molton Brown handwash as also something most people use.

L'occitane hand creams set or last year they had nice sets in M&S.

Initial make up bag. M&S and other places do them

I once got a fenty lipgloss and highlighter set that must have been about that price

Look at gift sets on cult beauty or look fantastic for ideas in that price range

Clarins lip comfort oil

How about this, they have loads of beauty gifts under £30

Buy the Boots advent calendar and break it down into gifts. I do this every year and it saves a fortune. They also gave a beauty box a bit more expensive if you prefer that.

Thank you so much for the replies. I was feeling a bit grumpy about Christmas happening AGAIN - so soon after the last one. But lots of good ideas there.
@BlanklyMyDear I'm with you on the books! And actually haven't done that for a few years.

If anyone else is in the same boat... MAC strobe cream is unusual and quite nice.

But which is better, @Tropicalsunshine - Christmas approximately every three weeks now you’re an adult, or the several decades between Christmases when you were seven???

@BlanklyMyDear
🤣 that is absolutely true...It was so rare and magical.
Never realised someone actually made it happen!
