Today I'm sharing my final Christmas gift guide of 2020 (you can catch up with the previous three here). And today's is dedicated to stocking fillers and more specifically, the best beauty stocking fillers to gift this year.
Whether you're buying for friends and family or are looking to take advantage of some seriously good gift set and minis prices, you'll find everything from makeup, skincare, bodycare and even hanging decorations in today's blog post.

So let's get right into it;
Body
Lush Snow Showers Shower Gel Trio (£24)
I am so impressed with the strides that Lush are making with sustainability. And this year's gift set offerings really highlight that. This great shower gel trio, featuring the Sleepy, Yog Nog and Roasting Chestnuts On An Open Fire, are in a mycelium and hemp box, grown from upcycled materials. And the card is 100% recycled and recyclable. When you think how much unnecessary packaging is thrown away at Christmas, this type of packaging is definitely the way forward. And the three scents that are included are SO GOOD! Sleepy is my personal favourite but I love the two festive fragrances too.
Lush Sleepy Soap Stack Gift (£13)
Another great stocking filler gift set from Lush is the Sleepy Soap Stack. It includes two brilliant products; the adorable Polar Bear Soap and the gorgeous Sleepy soap. And it is packaged in a 100% organic cotton towel that you can reuse time and time again. With 2020 really being the year of washing your hands more than ever, why not make it more pleasurable with a gift like this one.
The Body Shop Slather & Nourish Body Butter Gift Star (£25)
I love that you can split this up into five separate little gifts, if you have several family members to shop for this year. Alternatively they would make great table favours, if you're spending Christmas with close family. The Body Shop body butters are brilliant. And if you haven't tried any of them before, this would also be a great way to do so too.
Sanctuary Spa Beauty Sleep Journal Gift Set* (£20)
This is a lovely stocking filler/gift set for anyone in your life who struggles to nod off at night. Or if you're a fan of Lush's Sleepy, that I mentioned earlier. It includes a lovely silky satin eye mask, along with some minis of their sleep products. And it's all housed in a great little tin.
Fragrance
TOCCA Girls Mini Eau De Parfum Trio* (£58)
Admittedly, this is a bit of a pricier stocking filler. But TOCCA's gorgeous fragrances normally retail for anywhere from £50 to £100. So this little trio of scents would be perfect for many different women in our life. It includes 15ml bottles of the TOCCA Cleopatra, Florence and Collette perfumes. And the mini sizes are just as intricate and beautifully designed as the full sizes.
Makeup
IT Cosmetics Celebrate Your On-The-Go Brushes (£29)
This is one of the cutest travel brush sets that I have ever seen. I mean, how stunning do the brushes (and case) look in that rose gold hue?! And the quality of these brushes is pretty unbelievable, given the price. If you haven't tried IT Cosmetics' brushes before, you really are missing out. And this set includes mini brushes that are brand new and exclusive to this very gift set.
Bobbi Brown Easy On The Eyes Collection (£58)
This is one of my favourite gift sets of Christmas 2020 and is one that I will most definitely be keeping all to myself. But the reason that I just had to include it in today's stocking filler gift guide is because you can easily split this set up to bring some Bobbi Brown brilliance to a few of your friends/family members Christmas this year. For £58, considering that one of their Long-Wear Cream Shadow Sticks is normally £24, you get three full size Shadow Sticks. Along with their bestselling Smokey Eye Mascara.
Pixi Endless Silky Eye Pen Kit (£14)
When it comes to eyeliners, the Endless Silky Eye Pens from Pixi are some of my all-time favourites. I have never finished one of the full sizes so this set with four minis should keep anyone going for some time. And you really do get some lovely shades. There's BlackNoir, CopperGlow, MatteSienna, and AntiqueGold. They're just so soft and buttery on the lids, whilst also having some serious staying power.
Fenty Beauty Two Lil Stunnas (£22)
The Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paints are easily one of, if not, the best liquid lipsticks out there. And this gift set is a great way to try two fantastic shades for a little more than one of the full sizes. The pigmentation of these is quite frankly unreal and these two shades are limited edition to this gift set. So if you like what you see, be sure to grab these whilst you still can.
KVD Vegan Beauty Legendary Icons Bestsellers Set (£20)
If you or the person that you're buying for this year has always wanted to try some products from Kat Von D Beauty, now rebranded to KVD Vegan Beauty, this bestsellers set is the one to get. You'll find full sizes of the cult favourite Trooper Black Tattoo Liner and Go Big Or Go Home Volumising Mascara. Along with a mini Lolita Kitten Everlasting Liquid Lipstick. All just for £20, which is such a great deal.
Skincare
WISHFUL Quench (£18)
This would be a great stocking filler for fans of Huda/the big beauty YouTubers or anyone who loves a good pamper session, to be honest. It includes two Thirst Trap Cocoon Masks and one Chin Lift Sculpting Sheet Mask. And how cool is the packaging?!
WISHFUL YO GLOW Candy Cane Enzyme Scrub (£18)
I've been dying to try WISHFUL'S YO GLOW Enzyme Scrub for a while now, so you can imagine my excitement when I saw that they had released a limited edition Candy Cane version for Christmas. This has a mixture of AHAs and BHAs to exfoliate and smooth the skin. And, I for one, will be keeping this for myself this year.
FORMULA Absolute Youthful Skin Day & Night* (£35)
If you're not sure what to buy your Mum, Aunt, older sister/relative, this FORMULA set from Marks & Spencer would be my top pick. Not only can you grab it whilst you do your Christmas food shop or buy online and pick up in store. But this gift set, containing 50ml of the Absolute Day Cream and 50ml of the Absolute Sleep Cream, is worth £46. So it's well worth picking up if you know the person you're buying for is a fan of or looking to try some new skincare bits.
Hanging Beauty Baubles & Ornaments
When it comes to beauty stocking fillers, I love a good hanging decoration. And these are my top three picks this year.
Slip Scrunchies Rose Gold Holiday Bauble (£25)
If, like me, you've been dying to try some bits from Slip, this gift set makes doing so much more affordable. In this super cute bauble you get four of Slip's incredibly luxurious silk scrunchies in some gorgeous shades. I normally opt for Invisibobbles but they can sometimes annoy me when I'm sleeping. So I'm definitely happy to switch to these skinny silk scrunchies. This was one hanging decoration gift set that I just had to get my hands (and hair) on.
Pixi Glow Tonic 100ml Holiday Edition (£10)
You've seen me mention Pixi's iconic Glow Tonic many, many times on here and on social media. And for good reason. This truly is a transformative skincare product and how cute is the holiday edition packaging?! I've converted my Mum and many family members/friends to all things Glow Tonic and I know that this hanging decoration would go down well with so many different women and men.
Too Faced Damn Girl! Mascara Ornament (£12)
Another super cute holiday release from Too Faced (you will have seen them feature in my two previous Christmas gift guides this year too). Again, this is a great way to try out a new makeup item without having to pay the price of the full size. If you know someone who's been wanting to try a new mascara or more from Too Faced in general, this would be such a great stocking filler to give them.
So those are my top picks for the best beauty stocking fillers to gift this Christmas.
How are you getting on with your Christmas shopping? And which of the beauty stocking fillers featured in today's gift guide are your favourite?
