Great Stocking Stuffers for Women

Bill Smith
As Christmas is fast approaching, you might be trying to figure out what kind of stocking items you should give that special woman in your life. Women are fairly easy to buy gifts for, and with this economy you might think more about getting a lot of little gifts instead of three or four big gifts. Stocking items you might want to put in for a woman do not have to be expensive but rather useful items she might use or you know she uses all the time.

For a great stocking item, you could buy your woman some of her favorite lipstick, lip-gloss, or foundation makeup. If you are a man trying to get some makeup or lipstick for your woman for a stocking gift, just look in her makeup bag one day. Make a note of the colors that are worn and the color of the foundation makeup. Look at the makeup bag and what it contains, most women have a makeup bag with several different items that will give you great ideas on little gifts to stuff in the stocking. Write down the foundation makeup brand and color and also note any special things on the bottle, like anti-aging. Also, make note of the lipstick and lip-gloss brand and color and try to make mental notes of what styles you see the woman in your life wear the most. This would help out in your search when you go to the makeup section of your local store. This is a great gift idea for women because women love their makeup and lipstick, and getting some for Christmas is always a good thing.

Chocolate stocking stuffer ideas are always a great gift to give a woman. Most women love chocolate and around the Christmas holiday, most retail stores have chocolate on sale in the little gift sets. You could either get a box of chocolate or get some of her favorite candy bars. A few chocolate stocking stuffer items are good for any woman, and will surely impress her. It is important to know what kind of chocolate goodies the woman likes, whether it be white chocolate or milk chocolate or even dark chocolate. The chocolate stocking stuffer can be bought at any time, because chocolate stays good for quite a while, just be sure to remember it is in the stocking if you hang your stocking near the fireplace so it does not melt.

Jewelry always make a great stocking stuffer for any woman this Christmas season, and it does not have to be diamonds. If the woman in your life likes costume jewelry such as bracelets, rings, and earrings this makes a great inexpensive stocking stuffer. You can get most jewelry pretty cheap at a department store usually in a set of a couple different items like a bracelet and pair of earrings. This makes a great gift idea for the younger woman in your life, whether it be a young daughter, wife, or friend. Most women like wearing jewelry and like having options of wearing cheaper jewelry for just daily life. Costume jewelry will usually cost less than 20 dollars, and can be a great accessory to outfits that the woman in your life likes to wear.

Now, if you are looking for an expensive stocking stuffer you can get the woman in your life diamonds. Diamonds are naturally a woman's best friend and of course this would be a very good gift to give your wife or girlfriend this Christmas. Diamond jewelry could consist of a tennis bracelet, pair of earrings, ring, or a necklace. A piece of diamond jewelry could be that special stocking stuffer you give your loved one this year. A lot of retail stores and diamond stores have special deals this Christmas on their diamond jewelry due to the economy.

Razors or razor blades would also be a great inexpensive stocking stuffer for a woman this Christmas season. Many women like having smooth legs and are always in need of razor blades. You can get razor blades at the local grocery or retail store for under 10 dollars. It would be a good idea to know what kind of razor your woman likes or uses in order to get the right refill blades for her, and if she has been wanting a certain brand then this would be a great gift to be able to give to her for a reasonable price.

Perfume is another great option for a women stocking stuffer idea this Christmas season. Women love perfume and fragrances and love smelling good, so you really can not go wrong if you buy her some perfume. If there is a certain kind she wears, pick up a bottle of that or if you are not sure what she wears you can buy small vials of perfumes and get a little collection of five. You can find great perfume ideas on the Internet and on websites such as Ebay or Amazon for a very good price. Look for some higher quality perfume she has been wanting to try but just could not afford or pick her up a bottle of the new fragrance by the brand she likes. There are so many different perfume options that you do not have to spend a lot to find one special for that woman in your life.

Gift certificates are another great stocking stuffer, especially if you are not sure of what the woman in your life would want. If a woman is known to frequent a certain salon or nail boutique, get her a gift certificate to get her hair or nails done. Gift certificates can also be a great gift because they usually do not expire for a while, so your woman will have time to do what she wants with it at the appropriate time for her. Gift certificates to salons and beauty parlors are some of the best gifts to stuff her stocking up this Christmas. You can also get her a gift certificate to her favorite book store, mall, or even movie place. This is a great gift because then you know she can pick out what she really wants and you do not have to worry about saving a receipt to take the item back.

Bath and Body sets are also a great gift for women and make a great stocking stuffer for Christmas. Women who love to take baths are especially fond of bath and body gift sets, which are filled with body wash and soap, candles, sponges, and bath salts. Bath and body sets are found in most retail stores or special stores like Bath and Body Works and range from 5 dollars to 40 dollars depending on the size and where you get them from. For a stocking stuffer, the average cost will probably be under 10 dollars. Bath salts and bath products are great to give to any woman because you know they love fragrances and love smelling good in the bath. These can be aromatherapy bath and body sets or just normal bath and body gift sets. Make note of the smells and aromas that the woman likes and uses in the bathroom often, and then all you will need to do is go to the retail store and find a small bath and body set with that fragrance or one similar. You will never go wrong if you buy a small bath and body stocking stuffer for that special woman in your life.
