TNK nonprofit pick
I like to start these gift guides off with a charity or nonprofit that could use your support this holiday season (and all year round, TBH).
Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) provides independent, impartial medical humanitarian assistance to the people who need it most.

TNK top pick
Oh, you said you wished you could gift ILIA’S four best sellers for just $38?! Done and done! Get ready to gift (or experience) their best selling mascara (literally what I wear every single day), their Liquid Chromatic Eye Tint which is (get this) an eyeshadow that DOES NOT CREASE, their Multi-Stick in Aura that doubles as a lip and a blush AND their Lip Wrap Overnight Mask that nourishes overnight (but can also be worn during the day). Not only will these four products create the perfect minimalistic look, they are so compact it’s easy to stow anywhere (car, carry on, tiny purse…). Our team has gifted this set so many times over the years and it’s always a crowd pleaser. Definitely a one for you, one for me type of situation!
This set is special because includes:
- Mini Limitless Lash Mascara: my daily go-to for stunning, longer, separated lashes (this is the BEST!).
- Mini Liquid Powder Chromatic Eye Tint in Aura: gorg, user friendly and won’t budge after it’s dried.
- Mini Multi-Stick (Whisper): for adding life to eyes, cheeks and lips!
- Mini Lip Wrap Overnight Treatment: an indulgent lip treatment that softens and smooths.

November 9, 2022The order for the links in the over $50 section doesn’t match up with the order of the photos, which is pretty confusing.
