As much as I love having a fully stocked beauty cabinet with every type of lipstick or moisturizer that I need for the season, I’m always a little hesitant to splurge on a physical product as a holiday gift.

Yes, most of these are NYC-based since that’s where I live, but they are all applicable in scope to wherever you call home. Or add them to your list for your next Big Apple vacation!
