“Best Of” Holiday Gift Guide: Hot Tools
*Alexa, play Taylor Swift’s Christmas Album*
Yes, my friends, it’s officially that time of the year. Twinkling lights, putting up the tree, divulging in all the treats, and of course, the inevitable holiday shopping. Dun Dun Duuunnnhh.
Whether your list of recipients is long or short, it can be overwhelming to spend hours on the internet searching for a gift, circling the parking lot for a spot at the mall, or waiting in ridiculously long lines at basically any store (unless it’s Target, in which case is completely worth it. Amirite?)
No need to fret though! Today starts my “Best Of” Holiday Gift Guide series, and this year I asked my incredible followers to send in their absolute favorites and must-haves for each category! I’ve tallied up the all the top answers and over the next couple weeks I will be spilling the tea for the following categories:
Hot Tools
Makeup & Self-Tanner
Places to Shop, Athleisure, Denim, Basic Must-Haves
Monat Skin Care
Splurges vs. Steals

MY TOP PICKS
Dyson Airwrap
There’s a reason it has thousands of reviews and is continuously out of stock! IT. IS. AMAZING. If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I can’t live without this hot tool. I’ve been using it for three years now, and it makes an incredible gift. It’s definitely a splurge, but completely worth it! Treat yourself or your bestie with the Dyson Airwrap!
Bio Ionic
The only curling iron I use is this 1" Long Barrel Styler Pro Curling Iron! I’m obsessed! I also have the 1.25” Curling Iron for when I want looser waves. Both have an automatic shut off too, ya know just in case.
