Gift Ideas For Every Strong, Beautiful Woman You Know

By Lexi Novak

Your mom, your S.O.’s mom, your BFF — there are plenty of incredible women in your life, so why not gift them something just as incredible for the holidays? After all, remember all those soccer practices and clarinet lessons your mom drove you to (not to mention the superstar example she set while you were growing up)? And you know your BFF can make you smile on even the gloomiest day with her bright personality. This is your chance to get shopping early and really show your appreciation.

To help with gift-giving inspo, we’ve partnered with Sephora, which is basically a holiday shopping dreamland. On the hunt for the latest, sparkliest makeup shades? They’ve got them. Looking for something classy and classic for your S.O.’s mom? Yup, you’ll find it there. Gift sets, skin care, fragrance — whatever you need, Sephora will definitely have it. And it won't cost you a fortune, either, so you can make someone feel like a million bucks without actually spending a million bucks. Scroll below to see examples of all the strong, beautiful women who may be on your list, then click to reveal our top picks for what to gift them. Remember: The earlier you get your shopping done, the more time you’ll have to enjoy all those hot cocoas by the fire.
