I shop for fashion and beauty products a lot. I’m always looking for the next big thing or reminding myself of classics to keep in my beauty and closet rotation. So, if you find yourself last-minute shopping and need a gift idea or two, look no further because I’ve got you covered.

From cult favorites like the Olaplex Strong Days Ahead Hair Kit, to items from my personal collection that I religiously get compliments on like the Coach Leather Pillow Tabby Shoulder Bag, and even the best 14k gold hoops you could snag for just $13 — these items are sure to put a smile on some faces as they get unwrapped for Christmas. Not to mention, they’re all noted to arrive before Christmas on Amazon! Last-minute shoppers, you’re welcome.

What Is The Holiday Shipping Deadline For Amazon?

Amazon hasn’t officially confirmed this yet, but we can extrapolate from previous seasons that holiday delivery on orders placed by December 23 could arrive on the 24th if you choose one-day shipping at checkout. Otherwise, if a product doesn’t have one-day shipping, look for the ‘Arrives before Christmas’ messaging on the items detail page.
