Shop for Your Teen Princess, Delicious Diva or Domestic Queen — Best in Beauty Kits

Elizabeth Arden set the model years ago for makeup sets by giving their loyal customers a ridiculous amount of makeup in kit form one time per year. That set had more makeup than one person could actually use in a lifetime, but still customers return year after year for that fun filled kit overstuffed with makeup goodies. Now Sephora has a blockbuster kit they revamp each year as does Nordstrom. I love kits and palettes, and they are ideal for gift giving.

Every woman in your life deserves a kit that does it all. Here are my favorites:

1. Teen Princess – Think Keke Palmer

She is young and fabulous. When not on her cell phone or checking out My Space, she’s comparing notes with her friends about who’s hot and who’s not. The Teen Princess cannot live without lip gloss, hair gel and her iPod. When she is not studying for her SAT’s she is at the mall scoping out the latest trends. She lives girlie gifts and goodies that her friends will envy.

2. Delicious Diva – Think Kerry Washington

She does not follow trends, she sets them. She is the first out of the block with new styles. She is always at the hottest new restaurant and the hippest places to be seen. Her Blackberry contacts read like a PR of who’s who. The Trendsetter knows the best esthetician, hairdresser, and massage therapist in town. If there is a beauty product worth using, she already has it, so only the up-to-the-minute goodies will make the best gifts for her.

3. Domestic Queen – Think B. Smith

Her home is her castle. She has more domestic flair than Martha Stewart has in her little finger. The Domestic Goddess’s home is always immaculate with the aroma of freshly baked cookies wafting from the kitchen. She can bake a turkey, do laundry, and prepare for a dinner party of 10 in one fell swoop. While other women may compare notes about their housekeeper, she gives tips about homemaking. She appreciates not only gifts for her, but for her home.
