You know that friend whose serum collection rivals Sephora's and who you can always count on to test out the latest TikTok beauty trend? It's time to treat them to something new—but we get that gifting beauty products to a beauty expert is, to say the least, a daunting task. Since they likely already have their finger on the pulse of what's buzzy in the beauty space, we recommend going a different route with your holiday shopping. Instead of specific trending products, try picking out a giftable set or stocking up on a few handy accessories and tools they might not have thought to buy for themselves. And that's where we come in. We found 20 beauty gift ideas even seasoned beauty pros will appreciate, all courtesy of Target (and more importantly, Target's speedy shipping).

We've got rainbow-colored eyeshadow palettes, portable facial massagers, sparkly nail polish just in time for your New Year's nails, and a genius little at-home manicure tool. From makeup to skincare, these finds deserve a spot on your holiday shopping list:

This useful little tool makes it easy to skip the salon. It's designed with an ergonomic grip to make at-home manicures a cinch.

If they're a fan of Ouai, they'll likely never travel without this three-piece set again. It includes a shampoo, a leave-in conditioner, and a wave spray—all under the 100ml liquid requirement, so they pass TSA approval too.
