With cost-of-living pressures ongoing, the looming holiday season can feel like yet another thing we have to budget for. But Christmas gifts don’t have to be lavish to be special. In fact, some of the most thoughtful gifts come in petite packages – like a beauty stocking stuffer.

 

Ideal for the office Secret Santa gift exchange or the final touch to your loved one’s wish list, Maybelline makeup stocking fillers are your answer to this year’s gift-giving woes.

 

Below, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite stocking stuffers for makeup lovers – gifts that still hit the mark, while keeping costs down. Read on to find the perfect base, cheek, lip, or eye products for under $30 this silly season.

 

Grippy Serum Primer ($23.99)

 

Small beauty gifts can still have a big impact on a person’s daily makeup routine – and the best way to ensure their makeup stays on all day is with the Grippy Serum Primer.

 

Promising up to 24 hours of grip, this niacinamide-enriched formula glides on like a serum: keeping the skin dewy, fresh, and bright, while laying the ultimate smooth base for makeup.

 

Instant Age Rewind® Eraser Multi-Use Concealer ($20.99)

 

This beauty stocking stuffer is actually a makeup staple in disguise.

 

Whether you’re buying for a clean girl makeup enthusiast or a full-coverage queen, the Instant Age Rewind® Eraser Multi-Use Concealer ticks all the boxes – for every makeup wearer. This multi-use concealer brightens and hydrates the under-eye area and helps mask any imperfections, all while offering crease-resistant coverage for up to 12 hours.

 

Superstay Lumi Matte Foundation ($29.99)

 

Since most makeup lovers will be loyal to a dewy or matte makeup finish, foundation can be a tricky product to gift to someone else. But the Superstay Lumi Matte Foundation offers the best of both worlds: a soft matte blur that boosts radiance in the skin.

 

Infused with amino acids and micro-lumi pearls, the lightweight liquid formula gives the skin a natural-looking finish that can be built up to suit your loved one’s desired level of coverage.

 

Sunkisser Multi-Use Glow Liquid Blush and Bronzer ($22.99)

 

For this beauty stocking filler, we’re moving onto the cheeks with the Sunkisser Multi-Use Glow Liquid Blush and Bronzer. This compact liquid blush delivers an instant, supercharged glow to the cheeks while melting seamlessly into the skin.

 

Better still, choose from a mix of bronze and blush colours to suit their skin tone – so they can create the ultimate sun-kissed summer aesthetic for the holidays.

 

Lifter Stix™ Multi-Use Face Stick ($26.99)

 

We love a multi-use beauty stocking filler – and the Lifter Stix™ Multi-Use Face Stick nails the brief. Designed to cover, contour, and highlight, this creamy formula glides effortlessly onto the skin for hassle-free blending and sculpting.

 

Afraid the person you’re buying for will be intimidated by contour? Fear not! We’ve assembled our top tips on how to use a contouring stick for beginners.

 

Lash Sensational Sky High Washable Lengthening Mascara ($23.99)

 

The Lash Sensational Sky High Washable Lengthening Mascara is a Maybelline icon for a reason – and we’re betting you’ll want this affordable makeup gift for your own Christmas stocking. The exclusive flex tower brush is the secret behind this mascara’s lengthening and volumising powers, separating and extending each lash from root to tip. The formula is also allergy- and ophthalmologist-tested, making it a suitable mascara for sensitive eyes.

 

Super Lock Brow Glue ($15)

 

Give the gift of sculpted brows this Christmas with the Super Lock Brow Glue.

 

This long-lasting, non-sticky eyebrow gel is flake-resistant, sweat-resistant, and transfer-resistant to keep brows locked in place for up to 24 hours. It’s also perfect if the person you’re buying for this festive season favours a softly laminated brow look. We recommend opting for the ‘Clear’ shade for this beauty stocking filler – so you can cover all bases!

 

Super Stay® Vinyl Ink Longwear Liquid Lipcolor ($22.99)

 

From a classic red to a tasteful nude, the Super Stay® Vinyl Ink Longwear Liquid Lipcolor never misses. Available in 16 shades to suit every skin tone and undertone, this small makeup gift delivers long-wear pigment along with a weightless feel on the lips.

 

Never heavy or sticky, the Superstay Vinyl Ink Lipstick doesn’t budge – making it perfect for those elongated Christmas lunches.

 

Lifter Gloss ($17.99)

 

The ideal companion to an easy, natural makeup look, our Lifter Gloss offers a high-shine finish and a subtle tint that can be paired with – or worn without – lip liner.

 

Its hyaluronic acid-enriched formula helps keep the lips smooth, plump and hydrated and, with so many shades to choose from, this beauty stocking stuffer is a surefire crowd-pleaser.

 

Lifter Lip Liner ($16)

 

It might be the smallest offering on this beauty stocking stuffer gift guide, but the Lifter Lip Liner is packed with pigment, and comes loaded with hydrating ingredients.

 

Formulated with hyaluronic acid and jojoba oil, this creamy moisturising lip liner glides on smooth, maintaining a comfortable feel all day. Plus, if the person you’re buying for is a lipstick connoisseur, they’ll love using the Lifter Lip Liner to create an ombré lip look.
