Well, well here we are. Right in the holiday season again. This year has been incredible with all your support of The Skinny Confidential product line & HIM & HER podcast full of incredible guests. THANK YOU to all of you. The support you have shown has been so major & I’m forever grateful.
Now…it’s time for me to pull out my scroll. Again. You may remember my list of favorite things in the past & here we are again with all my most-loved items of 2022 that double as great gift ideas.
You guys know that I’m so fucking specific. I know what I like. And I also know what you guys like. I love weeding things out so that you only get the best of the best recommendations from me & the team. This post is divided into gift-giving categories and you should know none of this is sponsored, just real deal, tried & true items that my team and I use & love or things that we think make fab gifts.
Also, you’ll totally see some items that I’ve talked about before – we like what we like.
Let’s get into it.

THE SKINNY CONFIDENTIAL BEAUTY PRODUCTS:
In the shop:
♡ THE HOT MESS ICE ROLLER:
A preventative skin tool that uses the power of cold therapy to contour, tighten and de-puff your skin. THE HOT MESS ICE ROLLER’S all-aluminum roller gets cold fast, and stays cold longer than most other ice rollers. Did we mention this fan favorite just won Shape Beauty Awards 2022 – Best Ice Roller? Well, now you know.
♡ THE PINK BALLS FACE MASSAGER:
Chisel chisel. This innovative massager is made with 2 discoball-esque balls that really grip your face. It helps with lymphatic drainage and really is like an instant face list. HOT TIP: it works best with a few drops of ICE QUEEN FACE OIL.
♡ THE ICE QUEEN FACE OIL:
A high-quality, cooling facial oil packed with antioxidants that penetrates quickly to help hydrate, firm, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving skin soft and supple.
♡ THE SLEEPING BAG:
Storing your HOT MESS ICE ROLLER has never been easier. She’s shiny, she’s pink, she’s cute, she’s gingham & she’s here to keep your ice roller clean & cozy while she gets her beauty rest.
♡ THE HOT SHAVE RAZOR:
A refillable razor designed for women’s faces that gently removes unwanted facial hair and peach fuzz. Complete with an easy-to-use, comfortable handle, as well as a conveniently placed finger divot for better grip and easy control, this is not your average face razor.
♡ THE HOT SHAVE CREAM:
The first ever shaving cream designed specifically for a woman’s face. Silky, buttery, gentle, soothing and so nourishing. Like, your skin is gonna feel so good post shave. You should know that your HOT SHAVE CREAM can be used anywhere on your body. And we mean anywhere.
