Gift Guide: Presents Inspired By Your Favorite TV Shows
What do you get the girl who has everything? If she’s anything like us and totally obsessed with TV, you take inspiration from the small screen—and our favorite badass female characters. Here are some awesome gift ideas inspired by your very favorite TV shows.
Scandal
This holiday season, give the gift of Olivia Pope—or at least a Pope and Associates-themed beauty gift. Start with a wine-infused face mask like TONYMOLY’s I’m Real Red Wine Sheet Mask ($7.50, Sephora). Next, the perfect nude lipstick—and you can’t go past Jouer Hydrating Lipstick in Monique ($24, Jouer) which Kerry Washington wears on the show. Since Olivia is never without a perfect gel manicure, a gift certificate for your giftee to get her nails done is the finishing touch—Liv’s signature shade is CND Cocoa layered with Romantique, btw—and stash it all in a creamy white leather makeup bag. It’s handled.
Empire
Cookie Lyon, forever our queen, doesn’t shy away from bold lips and eyes—often at the same time. Enable your Empire-obsessed loved one’s with Urban Decay’s Vice4 Palette ($60, Ulta) and Kat von D’s superlative Studded Kiss Remix Lip Set ($42, Sephora), both featuring every intense yet wearable shade in the makeup rainbow. Serve in a leopard print makeup bag ($18, Ulta) for a present that’s perfect for your own Boo Boo Kitty.
Pretty Little Liars
If there’s one thing the Liars are known for anything, it’s their perfect eyebrows, so begin with Anastasia’s Beauty Express for Brows Kit ($39.50, Sephora) and pair it with Ali’s signature lipstick shade, NARS Jungle Red ($27, Sephora). Pop everything in a makeup bag emblazoned with a bold red ‘A’ (We love these customizable options for $10.50, Etsy) and wrap in a box with a scary porcelain doll (ok, that last part is optional). Holiday game on, bitches. -A
Game of Thrones
In the Game of Awesome Presents, you win or you die…and naturally you’re going to win. Your Sun and Stars will love Nip + Fab Dragon’s Blood Plumping Serum ($20, Ulta) and NARS Dragon Girl Velvet Matte Lip Pencil ($26, Sephora), all stored in this adorable Thrones-themed makeup bag ($8, Etsy).
Jessica Jones
For your friend who won’t shut up about Jessica Jones, pick up a quality smokey eye palette—we love the Ulta Essentials Smokey Eye Palette ($12, Ulta)—and Benefit’s Benetint Lip and Cheek Stain ($30, Sephora) to recreate Jess’ signature undone eye and pink-red lip look. For a little variation, add a white nail polish to your present, like Hogarth wears throughout the series. Put everything in a purple Caboodles case ($13.99, Target) and your perfect gift is complete—no mind-control needed.
