Waxing Kara’s Haute Cocoa Body Box

The Haute Cocoa Body Box features body butter, body scrub, a rejuvenating mask and a soy candle. All products are made with natural, food-grade ingredients that would not be possible without the friendly honeybees raised on founder Kara Brook’s Chesterhaven Beach Farm in Maryland. Here’s how to sink into chocolatey bliss this holiday season:

  •  Light the Haute Cocoa Soy Candle for a chocolatey aromatherapy experience.

  • Detoxify and soothe your face with the Haute Cocoa Mask, featuring powerful antioxidants from cocoa, clay and blueberry extract.

  • Gently exfoliate with the rich dark chocolate of the Haute Cocoa Scrub.

  • Moisturize your wintry skin in the warm, thick, chocolatey love of the Haute Cocoa Body Butter.

“The Haute Cocoa Body Box was designed to bring the spa into every room of your home,” Kara said. “Imagine diving into a pool of rich, chocolatey goodness and coming out completely moisturized and nourished. It’s really the perfect gift for the chocoholic in your life!” Waxing Kara’s Haute Cocoa Body Box can be purchased on WaxingKara.com and in stores at Honey House in Owing Mills, MD.

Cricket Hair Ties

I am loving this beauty stocking stuffer idea from Cricket. They have a great hair tin that is exclusive to CVS and is under $5! It houses 25 black hair ties, can travel easily in a gym bag or purse, and is a sassy reminder that no one knows where their hair ties are. This would make a perfect stocking stuffer for any beauty lover!

 Braun SensoSmart 

Give the beauty gift that will save time and improve everyday beauty routines. Epilation is an up-and-coming at-home hair removal method that is popular in other parts of the world and gives you smooth skin up to 4x weeks—meaning no more having to shell out money on waxing appointments. Plus say goodbye to stubble that’s rough….studies have shown that with continued use, epilation can reduce the amount of hair re-growth, making hairs lighter, softer and finer than before. The Braun Silk-épil 9 SensoSmart is the world’s first smart epilator featuring NEW SensoSmart™ technology. Ideal for new users, the innovative SensoSmart™ technology guides your epilation so you use the right pressure, removing even more hairs in one stroke for up to 4 weeks of smooth skin. Here are some features:

  • Grabs hair as small as a grain of sand (4x shorter than wax can catch) so there’s less grow out time / in between days

  • The device is 100% waterproof which allows you to epilate in warm water for a virtually painless experience with regular use

  • Pivoting head provides personalized performance by adapting to the contours of your skin while the wider head removes more hair per stroke

  • High Frequency Massage system with pulsating active vibrations - for an extra gentle epilation.

  • Comes with 7 extras, including a Facial Cap attachment and additional Bikini Trimmer device for easy maintenance of sensitive areas.

 Luin Living Hair Towel

Luin Living, a brand new line of luxury lifestyle home, bath and body products, made its U.S. debut this November with pop-up shops at several Saks Fifth Avenues. Luin Living bath fashions are made in Turkey, long known for their exquisite, high-quality, super-soft luxury home textiles. A great gift idea is their hair towel.  It is super absorbent, easy to put on (and stay on – it has a snap fastener) and It comes in 5 different colors.

MakeupDrop™ Hybrid

MakeupDrop's newest launch - MakeupDrop Hybrid is another great stocking stuffer! From the creators of the original silicone makeup applicator comes the next generation of flawless application for skincare, foundation, blush, highlighter and concealer. The MakeupDrop™ Hybrid is the newest innovation to revamp any makeup bag. The super soft, serenity colored applicator features two uniquely distinct parts: the Silicone Drop, which acts as a clean and waste-free surface for initial makeup application, and the Super Soft Sponge which helps blend and achieve an airbrushed glow. While traditional beauty sponges soak up tons of extra product, the Hybrid—like all MakeupDrop™ products—minimizes product wasted by using the least amount of makeup possible. The silicone pad is naturally anti-bacterial and can stop the transfer of germs that can cause breakouts and irritation.
