There's one in every bunch. You know, the bestie that you run to for all your skincare concerns. Or maybe it's the big cousin that you gush over the latest TikTok beauty hack with. Everyone knows someone in their life who is obsessed with hair, makeup, skincare, or all three at the same time. When it comes to finding the perfect gift for the aspiring beauty influencer in your life, you've got to pull out all the stops to make sure their thirst for all-things beauty is quenched.

What do you get a beauty-obsessed loved one who has their glamourous makeup vanity and skincare fridge stocked with everything from the best curl creams to eyelash serums that actually work? Well, from one beauty junkie to the next, it's safe to say that there's always a new beauty collab launching, bronzers that serve the trendiest makeup looks, and nail polish sets that can whip up a mani that would serve stiff competition for Hailey Bieber's glazed donut nails.

Finding the best gifts for the makeup and skincare enthusiast in your life can be fun, and we’re here to help. From adorable stocking stuffers to tech and makeup hybrid goodies, we've rounded up the coolest beauty products and skincare must-haves that any aspiring beauty influencer would love.
