Lustrous Beauty Sleep Set
Cilque
$95.00
was $105.00
We all know how important a good night's sleep is for looking and feeling our best and one way to up your beauty sleep game is with this beauty sleep set from Cilque. "It’s made from 100 percent lustrous silk, and you can feel the high quality at the first buttery-soft touch," shares senior commerce editor Jasmine. "Not only is silk said to be a good material for acne-prone skin (which I have), but my hairstylist recommends silk and satin pillowcases to help preserve braids and twists and to protect my curly/natural hair from frizz and breakage better than traditional cotton pillowcases. The soft and breathable silk material of both these products made me drift off to sleep way faster than usual, and, to no surprise, the increase in quality sleep has left me feeling way more energized."

This is also helpful for products you need to store upright, or even upside down, such as a felt-tipped eyeliner."

Maxsoft Hair Scalp Massager Shampoo Brush
Amazon
$8.58
was $9.99
Looking to bring that coveted salon massage at home? Commerce contributor Olivia found a way — and it did way more than just provide a relaxing massage. "Nothing — and I mean nothing — has ever soothed my dandruff like this thing," she shares. "I mourn the years I spent agonizing over my scalp when the solution was right there, and for less than $10." To top it off, these brushes are also great for preventing greasiness, stimulating hair growth, and removing stubborn product buildup. With its compact size and affordable price point, this brush is bound to find its way into tons of people's hands (and showers) this holiday season.

The Hair Towel
Crown Affair
$45.00
I've never been a fan of hair towels — that is until I tried this one from Crown Affair. Made from a thin, high-quality custom waffle-knit microfiber, this towel is a total gamechanger. It's gentle on my curls, helps prevent frizz, and features an elastic strap (say so long to those annoying button closures that always pull on hair) for a comfortable fit that stays in place. The best part? It cut my drying time in half. What a win!

Available in both a small and large size, the porous mat turns your sink into a ventilated tabletop.

Makeup Brush Cleaner
Amazon
$21.99
was $29.99
The past Christmas, I was gifted an electric makeup brush cleaner, and let me tell you, it was the best gift I received. Keeping makeup brushes is important for both the health of your skin and the brushes, but manually doing it takes so much time and they take even longer to dry afterward. With this set, you get different-sized attachments so the device can hold all of your brushes, a handy bowl to keep all your dirty water from splashing around, and the ability to spin brushes dry so you can use them immediately! If you've got a beauty lover on your shopping list, this is one gift you can be sure they'll love unwrapping.

S&T INC. Always Off Reusable Makeup Remover Cloths
Amazon
$7.99
Anyone who wears makeup knows that the worst part of wearing makeup is taking it off at the end of the day. Luckily, commerce contributor Grace found a solution that makes it easy on you and your wallet. "These cloths truly work miracles," she shares "All you need to do is run them under water, and in seconds you’ll be makeup-free. You can also use them with your face wash for tougher makeup. But honestly, in years of using them, water has always worked just fine for me. And because they’re microfiber, they’re machine-washable and super durable."

Denman Hairbrush Cleaning Brush
Amazon
$10.95
We know, we know, it's generally frowned upon to gift people a cleaning tool unless they ask for it, but hear me out. The Denman Hairbrush Cleaner is the beauty tool most people don't know they need. Before I discovered this brush, cleaning my hairbrushes was a painstaking time grab that involved scissors, tweezers, an extra toothbrush, and a 30-minute soak. And even with all that, my brushes never looked as good as they do now. I've already gifted it to a couple of friends and family members and to say they were thrilled would be an understatement!

Perfect for anyone in need of a deep conditioning treatment but not looking to head to the salon, this product revives hair leaving it super soft, shiny, and manageable. And like the rest of its product, it features a light lovely scent that'll leave you feeling like you just bounced out of the salon, all from the comfort of your home!

Features director Arie recently got her hands on one and shared, "My hair has not looked this great since my last haircut (a year and a half ago now!)" while tools editor Riddley called it a worthwhile spend, sharing, "I feel like it's the bang for your buck with the dryers and curlers and other attachments!" And as for me, the Airwrap has become an essential part of my daily hair routine, replacing most of my hot styling tools; if you're looking for a sign to join the pack and pick up this device, consider this it.
