Best Christmas makeup stocking fillers for £10 or less
As you’ve probably noticed, it’s become increasingly difficult to find good makeup gifts for under a tenner as prices have jumped up so much in the last year. However, I have persevered and found you some excellent little beauty stocking fillers that come in at £10 or less, either at their standard price or reduced in latest offers.
Kits and baubles
Most department store mini gifts have well and truly broken the £15 barrier in 2022, but there are a few gems here and there, plus the high street’s come to the rescue with bigger gifts that represent excellent value.

Clarins Lips and Lashes Bauble
A little bit of luxury at a low price with these nicely packaged minis. Contains Lip Comfort Oil in Honey, 1.4ml and Supra Lift & Curl Mascara, 3ml.
RRP £10.00, best brice £8.80 at Escentual. Worth £13.30.

Revolution smokey eyes gift set
A generous gift if you buy direct from the brand: Revolution 9-Pan Shadow Palette, Revolution Mascara Black, Revolution Khol Eyeliner, in a shiny glam gift box.
RRP £10.00, and reduced to £5.00 at Revolution Beauty. Worth £15.00.
There is limited supply of this kit, so snap one up soon if you want one. The Revolution shop has many other great kits for £10 and under if it does sell out though.
Eyeshadow sets & palettes
Beautiful quality eyeshadow is hard to find on a budget, but these three stocking fillers caught my eye. Wink wink.

RuPaul Eleganza Extravaganza Liquid Eyeshadow Trio
Was £15.00, now £7.50.
Three liquid metallic shadows in silver, gold and rose nude for sparkling nights out or days when you’re feeling a bit extra. Oh yes she betta do!

Lottie London comes from the creator of premium nail & beauty brands Ciate London and Skin Proud, and gives you decent quality at a bargain price. This twelve-pan palette has a mixture of mattes, shimmers and metallics in playful fashion-forward shades. Cruelty free.

You can get exactly the same duo – this time in the new Xmas gift packaging – at Boots for £10.00 but it’s in the 3-for-2, which would work out cheaper than the Sephora price if you’re doing a larger shop.
Phew! That was a tough stocking fillers roundup to put together at that price point, but there are definitely some lovely treats in the list. I’ll be doing a roundup of larger beauty gifts soon too.
