Clean Beauty Gifts for Stockings, Swaps, and More

By Sarah Walter | December 9, 2019

From giftable versions of our skin-improving complexion essentials to exclusive palettes and covetable, colorful makeup gift sets, we have the best stocking stuffers this year. Period. Whether the lucky recipient (or you!) prefers daily essentials, like our new LIP TREATS Lip Balm & Scrub Duo, or the bolder end of the beauty spectrum — say, gilded eyes courtesy of the METAL EYES Metallic Eye Trio, there’s something for every beauty lover on your list.

We’re also sharing a few fun facts behind our makeup stocking stuffers that even the biggest bareMinerals fans may be surprised by. Pick your favorites and skip the wrapping paper — our holiday collection comes packaged in playful watercolors designed for gifting with ease.

PRIME & FINISH ESSENTIALS Mini Primer & Finishing Powder Duo

Two of our best sellers are now in adorable, portable mini sizes. The powerful duo locks looks in place so you (or your recipient) can go through the day without giving your makeup (or where it has traveled to) a second thought. Use PRIME TIME Foundation Primer before makeup application to create a smooth canvas and extend foundation wear. Once you’ve applied your makeup, sweep MINERAL VEIL Finishing Powder all over your face to blur the look of pores and fine lines for a soft-focus, photo-ready finish.

Did you know… MINERAL VEIL Finishing Powder is made with just five clean ingredients.

MESA GEN NUDE Eyeshadow Palette

Blend, define and highlight to create unlimited eye looks with our limited-edition GEN NUDE Eyeshadow Palette showcasing 14 versatile shades (10 are new!), ranging from sun-washed mattes to glistening metallics inspired by the sunlit mesa. Plus, our new Double Ended Eyeshadow Brush, included with the palette, allows for expert application.

Did you know… The mineral-rich GEN NUDE formula is crease-proof and offers all-day wear. Cucumber Extract, packed with Vitamins A & C, helps soothe puffy eyes and moisturize skin.

LIP TREATS Lip Balm & Scrub Duo

This handy pairing of cane sugar lip scrub and refreshing, minty balm is our solve for softness and hydration during chapped-lips season. Be sure to stock up — once the holiday exclusive is sold out, it’s gone! Pair with your favorite bareMinerals lip color after applying balm.

Did you know… The gentle, exfoliating scrub is made from a mix of the familiar and exotic:  Evaporated Cane Sugar, Ground Exotic Fruit Buriti, and Shea Butter and Jojoba Oil to help moisturize lips.

LIMITLESS LASHES Full-Size LASHTOPIA Duo

Keep one of our blackest black volumizing mascaras in your bag and one at home — or give one to a friend and stash the other for yourself. No need to check for touch-ups — the winter weather-proof formula is water-resistant, smudge-resistant, flake-resistant and even lash extension friendly.

Did you know… This is our newest mascara and it actually nourishes lashes with a mineral-based formula that conditions from root to tip.

LIP SERVICE BAREPRO Longwear Lipstick Duo

There’s nothing better for mistletoe season than lipstick that is truly kiss-proof! The neutral Petal, a soft muted rose, and wearable bright shade Boysenberry, a mid-tone berry, work year-round and deliver high-impact, full-coverage color in just one swipe.

Did you know… Our long-wearing formula is backed by science. MINERAL LOCK Longwear Technology, a blend of mineral pigments and lipids, helps color adhere to lips for long-lasting wear. Key ingredients, like Sunflower Seed & Jojoba Wax, help ward off the dry feeling common in matte lipsticks by helping to nourish and prevent moisture loss.

ORIGINAL Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 15 Deluxe Collector’s Edition

Stumped for ideas for stocking stuffers? You can’t beat this deluxe take on our best seller. No matter the desired coverage, ORIGINAL Foundation can build from sheer-to-full for a no-makeup look and feel. Made with only five natural mineral ingredients, the foundation actually promotes clearer, healthier-looking skin over time — and you can even sleep in it (if you really want to).

Did you know… ORIGINAL Foundation is the #1 Mineral Foundation in the U.S.*

GOOD TO GLOSS: Full-Size MOXIE Plumping Lip Gloss Trio

Gift our fan-favorite gloss in shades that deliver that festive holiday sparkle. This kit features two new, limited-edition shades, plus 24 Karat, a glistening gold. All three shimmering glosses are made with a naturally derived peptide that makes lips look fuller.

Did you know… To really give your holiday look dimension, you can layer MOXIE Plumping Lip Gloss over lipstick for full-coverage and shine.

METAL EYES GEN NUDE Metallic Eye Trio

Add dimension to eyes with our GEN NUDE Metallic Liquid Eyeshadow in three universally flattering molten metallics. Forget the messy glitter — Multi-Dimensional Crushed Mineral Pearls impart a crease and smudge-resistant extreme metallic finish that can be used as a liner or across the full lid, and can layer for greater shine intensity.

Did you know… GEN NUDE Metallic Liquid Eyeshadow is infused with over 40% water for a refreshing feel and ultra-comfortable, feels-like-nothing wear.
