Macy’s
Promising review: “If you like deep, warm scented perfumes like sandalwood or tonka combined with sweet florals or vanilla, you’ll like this scent. It is heavily scented at first but wears nicely throughout the day so it isn’t overpowering. If you’re fond of lighter, more floral, fruity, or fresh scents, this isn’t for you.” —NoDramaMama
Comes with the following shades: Frost Smitten, First Kiss, Wild Wonder, Bus Stop Crimson, and Secondhand Jade. I recently got to try out Orly and their products through a sample, and I’m officially hooked. The polish applies so smooth and really provides long-lasting stay. I especially love their polish remover, though! It smells NOTHING like typical polish remover, more just like a mix of some essential oils, TBH, and truly makes polish removal SO quick and easy. Get the polish remover for $5.40+ (available in three sizes).

Promising review: “For $15 to try and sample out a few high quality products, I think this is a steal! I really love the mini liquid lip, which is the perfect amount considering I take a while to get through these.

A cold brew tea gift set so they can make and enjoy a refreshing glass of iced tea. Plus, look at how pretty that glass cylinder pot is. I want this gift set for that item alone, TBH.
The Grommet
This comes with: one glass cylinder pot, Pu Er Bai Ya white tea, Kumano Japanese green tea, brewing instructions, and a gift box.
Promising review: “I purchased this trio last Christmas and loved it. So happy they are offering it again. The original hand cream is so rich and moisturizing with a lovely herbal scent. However, the lavender and grapefruit scents are also amazing! So fresh! And they are equally moisturizing. A small amount goes a long way. Too much can be a little greasy. I use small amounts during the day but put a really thick coating on at night. I am a health care provider and my hands get so raw from all the washing. This is one of only two brands that really works for me. It saves my hands!” —WanderingRose
