041beauty columnist Busisiwe Nxele chatted with some local beauty enthusiasts to formulate a must-have Christmas gift list.

IT’S almost the season to be jolly my friends! The big days are near and those who have been good girls and and boys are already compiling their gift lists for Santa.
With so many products and choices to choose from, I asked myself what I would find on the lists of my beauty enthusiast friends. Beauty gift shopping is no easy feat so I went digging out of curiosity and to also low-key get some inspiration for my list and and gift ideas. Whether the bestie, a family member or you are a skincare, makeup, or fragrance lover, you’re bound to get some inspiration from these lists. Hopefully, the budgets are strong, if not there’s a wealth of cheaper options out there. Let’s take a peek & let the shopping commence!
