Birthday Package fit for a Beauty Guru
Care packages are definitely one of the sweetest gift ideas ever created. Originating from the humanitarian organization, Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere (CARE), the care package acts as a unit of aid. Today, care packages are parcel of food or supplies sent to another as a form of relief or comfort purposes.
There are a ton of college care package ideas available on Pinterest and just by the looks of it, it melts my heart. Wouldn’t it be great to receive one!
Know of a beauty guru and have no idea what to get her? How about make your own birthday/care package for her!
Here are 13 things you could include in your care package:

Applying nail polish can sometimes be a chore, especially when you are applying with your opposite hand. Waiting for it to dry before you could do anything is another. Not forgetting attempting to do beautiful designs but having them turn into a horrible disaster. Save your beauty guru from all these problems they face while painting their nails by getting them some nail wraps!
Nail wraps come in a wide variety of designs! So, pick out some that you believe matches the personality of your friend or better, something you believe she will like!

Cheap makeup brushes tend to shed after a while. This is why you could get this beauty guru of yours a new set! Get her a set and print or write out a note with the correct direction or usage of each brush and attach it together with the gift! It’s something small but is still a way to show your love and care for her. Here’s an example of it:

Look out for hints that she might drop you or simply buy the basics such as her favourite makeup remover solution or makeup removing pads!
It is always good to have extra lying around because you’ll never know when will she run out of it. Alternatively, you could get her one or two tinted lip balms. It moisturises your lips while giving it colour.
It’s the same logic to shoes, there’s no such thing as too much face masks! It’s always a great thing to keep your face hydrated and well nourished. Face masks are essential if you want to have ever glowing skin. Having a variety of face masks such as those which moisturises and those which pull out black and white heads would be the perfect combination.
A suggestion would be face masks from The Face Shop such as the following or charcoal face mask to remove black- and whiteheads.
Some of my personal favourite face masks from The Face Shop is the Acai Berry, Green Tea and Rice.

Put your hands up now if you agree with the next statement.
We always loose our bobby pins.
Are you guilty of that? Because many of us do! Get her a box or two of bobby pins and that might just save her day at some point in time. Make things easier for her to carry around by placing them all in a tic tac box as seen below.

No crease hair ties are wonderful pieces too along with whacky hair styling accessories that you can consider such as the donut bun tool.

You can never have too much nail polish in your collection.
Maybe it is a personal thing but I only purchase new nail polishes in different shades or colours when I am bored of the current ones or running out of them. This is only applicable when I have the spare cash to splurge on.
She might just be thinking along the same lines too!
So if you are getting her nail foils or wraps, you can also consider throwing in a bottle or two of nail polish and the remover. Base coat too!

If she cares a lot about her hair but doesn’t have a variety of different brushes, maybe it’s time to get her one or two more of a different kind!
There are different brushes for different purposes so why not get her some? Here’s a reference to the kind of brushes you can look out for.
8. And if you’ve got the budget….. a good hair straightener or hair curler. Even a bowl dryer!

Every makeup/beauty junkie would definitely have thought of getting one for themselves at some time of their life but probably are saving up or might have put aside that thought. If you have the spare cash, helping them cross off an item off their wish list would just be the best birthday gift they might ever get!
9. Foods to eat for amazing skin!

Or foods that make you look even beautiful or solve your beauty boo-boos. Examples would be avocado, apples, lemons, cucumbers, chia seeds, etc. Try to hunt down some of the food that she is already a big fan of and get her a small bunch or two!

It is always good to exfoliate your skin! It helps in a way by removing the unwanted particles that can later create nasty acne and pimples and it’s also good to always have healthy and radiant skin! You could try and DIY them or alternatively give them the ingredients packed in a jar and let them create the scrub themselves!

You can either get them from Lush or DIY them and give it to them as part of the birthday/care package! But yes indeed, it is way much more easier to just get them from Lush. Do note that bath bombs have their own expiry date too so make sure she’ll use it as soon as she gets it!
Be it hand sanitisers, body wash, lotion or candles, just grab and go!
13. Tissue paper and/or Oil blotting sheets
Get her some cute designed or themed tissue paper such as the following examples or alternatively you could get her a packet or two of oil blotting paper.
