    This holiday season, give the gift of perfect brows (or at least the resources to achieve them) to your dearest beauty-obsessed friend. Tweezerman not only boasts the most popular tweezers known to man (a little on the pricey side but definitely worth the splurge!), but now in time for the holidays, the brow experts have just released a collection of limited edition tools, perfect for the makeup maven on your list. This particular winter-inspired style, the Polka Dot Slant Tweezers, are festively cute in red and white, and are encrusted with Swarovski crystals for that extra twinkle. If you're going to opt for a pair of high-end tweezers, you might as well go all out, right?


    Price: $40

    Got a lipgloss addict on your list of gal pals to shop for this holiday season? Search no more -- Stila has just released the ultimate gift set for anyone who loves sampling their famous brush-on lip glaze at the makeup counter but just can't bring themselves to spend more than $20 a pop! The Lip Glaze Holiday Collection consists of eight slightly-shrunken versions of their gloss for just $25! Four of the colors are best-sellers -- from Kitten (golden caramel) to winter-festive Cranberry (deep red) -- while the other four are brand new! Eight stellar shades at just a fraction of their $80 value? Sounds like a deal I need to jump on, stat! Of course, I should probably hold off on shopping for myself until after I start shopping for my friends and family...

    If you're having a hard time justifying all the inevitably expensive holiday gift-shopping this year in light of our current economic state, how about opting for a present that truly gives back? Famed accessories brand Kate Spade has recently formed a partnership with Women for Women International known as the Hand In Hand program, which employs war survivors from Bosnia, giving them a chance to get their future back on track. The result? A collection of hand-knit winter accessories, including these Colorblock Mittens, that keep you warm during the dreary weather ahead while the proceeds help women abroad rebuild their lives. If that's not incentive to spread some Christmas joy this season despite your dismal paycheck, I don't know what is!

    Hot In The Hive: Philosophy Winter Escape Set

    What is it about festive drinks like hot apple cider and eggnog that gets me into the holiday mood (even when the unseasonable 70 degree weather outside is really betraying my pre-Christmas spirit)? No matter what the forecast, one sip of hot chocolate and I'm instantly transported out of my uncomfortable heels and straight to the ski lodge, all warm and cozy in a Snuggie (or not). But what's even better -- now you can enjoy the yummy winter-warmness of the season even in the shower! Philosophy's Winter Escape Set comes complete with a trio of peppermint hot chocolate-themed products: shower gel, lotion, and lip shine, all wrapped in an adorable winter cottage box. Sure, it's not the same as drinking cocoa by the fire (I'm pretty sure downing this won't taste good), but lathering up with anything cocoa and marshmallow-scented, paired with the comfy steaminess of your shower, is probably the next best thing! The set also makes a super cute gift to anyone who loves at-home pampering!

    Hot In The Hive: Numark iDJ2

    One of my favorite music documentaries is Scratch, which delves into the background of the hip-hop DJ and turntablism. From clips of the famous 1984 Grammy Awards with Herbie Hancock & Grand Mixer DXT performance of "Rockit" to interviews with modern day DJ legends, Scratch covered it all. The most impressive part was seeing all the DJs show off their skills at the turntables. While definitely inspiring, I certainly don't have the space or money for a set of turntables and stacks of records. Thank goodness modern technology is here to the rescue! The Numark iDJ2 is the first mixing station that enables you to play two tracks simultaneously from the same iPod. Use the two large wheels to scratch without harming a single vinyl and even record your own demos. Who knows, you may go from DJing your friends' parties to hitting the big time one day. This is also a great gift idea for your musically inclined dad for Father's Day!

    Gifts for Grads: Frame the Memories!

    Looking for a perfect gift for the graduate in your life? Nothing could be more personal than framing a favorite photo as a gift, especially for high school grads headed off to college. I'm sure you agree - taking the time to print and frame a digital picture can take some serious effort, and is something that often is put at the bottom of the to-do list. That's why I love this photo collage frame from personalizationmall.com: you can pick any one-line message and it is lasered into a matboard. Just print a few photos for the back! Tip: it looks even cuter when you let one photo cut across two letters. For something a little simpler for the green-loving grad, what about the Mariposa recycled aluminum frame? It's glamorous and eco-friendly! Check out my slide show for other great photo frame gifts for grads!
