stocking stuffers for her that are less than $50 at Sephora

Looking for a few more gift ideas to add to her stocking stuffers? Consider yourself covered. 

I’ve always adored stocking stuffers. Not only are they fun to open, but they also help prolong the magic of Christmas morning. My favorite ones tend to be consumable treats or little luxuries I wouldn’t necessarily buy for myself every day. Beauty minis, skincare indulgences, and self-care essentials from my Sephora wish list—each one especially comforting during the cold, grey stretch of January and February.

With that in mind, I’ve curated a list of top-rated beauty stocking stuffers from Sephora that are both practical and delightful. Whether you’re shopping for your mom, auntie, grandma, niece, sister, bestie, or daughter, these picks are designed to add a little extra sparkle to her holiday morning.

Most of the items below are products I personally own, use, or have been gifted—and they’ve earned their spot. May this curated list make your holiday shopping feel a little more productive—and a lot more joyful.

You will find everything listed and categorized under:

  1. FACE
  2. LIPS
  3. MAKEUP
  4. BATH & BODY
  5. MANICURE
  6. HAIR
  7. FRAGRANCE
  8. TOOLS
  9. FESTIVE

FACE CARE

cleanser

I wouldn’t mind finding this Caudalie makeup remover or almond milk cleanser in my stocking. The mini Strawberry face wash is gentle and perfect for younger skin, especially those under thirty.

exfoliator

I’ve tried both pink clay and charcoal formulas, and I honestly liked them both. The mini-size options are perfect for travel. A box of exfoliating peel pads (5) could easily be divided among five stockings… or tucked into one as-is, because let’s be honest—some things are better left unshared.

elixir

It’s pretty safe to say that this mini elixir spray would make a much-loved stocking stuffer. Even better, you could get a free clay mask and break it up into two stocking stuffers from this duo.

sheet mask

Add a little extra Vitamin C to her stocking stuffers with this uplifting sheet mask. A pack of these copper eye masks (5) would also be appreciated in my stocking.

moisturizer

Confirming that any of these hydrating minis, the face mistmilky toner, or rose face mask, would make an excellent stocking stuffer. 

LIP CARE

lip scrub

This scrumptious lip scrub is helpful for counteracting the winter climate.

lip mask

I keep the Fresh or Ilia hydrating lip mask at my nightstand. I love the LANEIGE vanilla, but now I want to try their hot cocoa one.

lip balm

The Fresh lip balm is super nourishing and l use it all year long, but I also love the lighter Farmacy and Ilia ones too.

Alternatively, you could divide this mini gift set amongst multiple stockings.

MAKEUP

tinted lip balm & lip gloss

I definitely can name a few people in my life who would love to find this tinted lip balm in their stockings. The same goes for this mini lip gloss (perfect for a small bag) or one of these iconic tubes.

eyeliner & mascara

It would be hard not to smile if I found a Dior mascara (090 BLACK) in my stocking. The same goes for this waterproof (ZERO) eyeliner.

eyeshadow palette

I love my mini Urban Decay eyeshadow palette for traveling. It also pairs really well with the eyeshadow trio from Glossier.

setting powder & spray

Help lock in her makeup on the go by adding this mini setting powder and/or setting spray to her stocking.

BATH & BODY

soap bar

There’s always room for Dior’s J’adore soap bar in my stocking.

cleansing oil

This mini almond cleansing oil is amazing with its instant milky lather. The almond oil and hand cream duo may already be in my basket.

lotion & cream

This unscented lotion or decadent L’Occitane hand cream would be perfect for layering into multiple stockings. I’d split L’Occitane’s gender-neutral hand cream trio set by tucking one cream each into three different stockings. One truly can’t have too many of these mini creams during the cold and dry winter months. 

I am curious to try this OUAI rose body crème and wouldn’t mind finding a mini jar nestled in my stocking.

HAIR

style prep

This blowout cream is fantastic, and I love that it comes in a travel size. A little bit of this underrated conditioning primer goes a very long way, as does a few of these shine drops.

hair mask

I would bring along this mini hydrating hair mask on my next spa getaway.

WINTER FRAGRANCE

warm and light floral

Libre is like a warm scarf on a chilly Paris day, while Boujee Marshmallow takes me to a confectionery shoppe in a small town outside of the city. I keep this Jo Malone fragrance at my office desk, and my colleague is obsessed.

Honestly, there’s a part of me that wants to break up this Versace mini fragrance set and keep one for myself…. same goes for the Gucci one. You could also break up this Marc Jacobs fragrance set to get 2-4 different stocking stuffer options.

discovery set

I definitely have a few nieces who would love the fragrance discovery set from Kayali (four or eight pieces), Prada, or Clean Reserve. I can also think of a few other family members who would love to see the ones from Salt & Stone or Nest New York in their stockings on Christmas morning. 

BEAUTY TOOLS

makeup sponge

Arguably, a Beautyblender is one of the best tools for blending makeup. I’ll admit that I really like the Sephora angled sponge, too. Either make an excellent consumable gift option.

FESTIVE

Christmas crackers

Loving these L’Occitane beauty crackers for the girls on Christmas morning while the boys watch the game.
