Top Hostess Gifts $25 and Under

These wonderfully fragrant and soothing little balls would be a delight to any hostess that has worked hard to put a party together. Verikira Naturals only uses the finest quality natural ingredients to make their Natural Aroma Shower Steamers. My favorite is the Cinnamon and Clove, but they are also available in Peppermint Awakening and Eucalyptus Revival.

Who says a hard working and gracious hostess doesn't deserve something to make herself feel sexier? This holiday season, give your loving hostess the Sexy Mother Pucker Gift Set from Soap and Glory. The set comes with three chic and fabulous lip glosses that will not only give her a beautiful pout, but it will also plump her lips at the same time. Believe me, she'll love to see this gift after being knee deep in h'orderves and wine bottles all night.

This beauty gift box is simply wonderful and any hostess would love to receive one of these must-have sample sets. Each month, My Pretty Pink Box releases a new box set filled with samples from various e-retailers. The bonus is that each box has at least one or two full-sized samples. There is a catch though; they tend to sell out within hours of release. So if you would like one for yourself or for that special hostess, then the next one will be on sale December 9th. Believe me; it's definitely worth marking your calendar.

After all of the talking, toasting, and nibbling your gracious hostess will be excited to see a Mary Kay Satin Lips set. After the party is over, she can soak away her troubles in the tub while pampering and exfoliating her lips with the mask and balm duo. This gift will guarantee you another invite to her next soiree.

Ginger can be very therapeutic by both stimulating and grounding you. What better scent to give as a hostess present during the harsh chills of winter and the hectic shopping of the holidays. Origins Ginger Warm Ups set comes with a 3.4 oz. Ginger Souffle whipped body cream and a 0.14 oz. roller ball fragrance of Ginger Essence. This wonderful 2-pc set will definitely warm up the spirits of your favorite weary hostess.

Normally I don't recommend giving lipstick as a hostess gift unless you know what they like to wear, but with the Clinique Party Red Lips set you can't go wrong. This set comes with four mini lipsticks in various shades of red, so your hostess will be able to find at least one that is truly flattering. Every woman needs a good red lipstick to make us feel better, so this is exactly what your hostess will need for the day after her huge bash.

This set is perfect for any makeup-driven hostess. Colors and shades do not matter in this set because it contains the most flattering shades for most skin tones. Your hostess will love receiving this set that includes a travel size Bionic mascara, a mini Fusion Soft Lights in Dusk and a mini Lip Enhancing Gloss in Aura. What a perfect way to say thank you for the invite.

Facial and hydration mists are a definite must-have during the dry cold days of winter. Personally, I use a facial mist everyday especially when wearing mineral makeup. It's not only soothing and refreshing, but can be an instant pick-me-up when your hostess is feeling stressed or overwhelmed because she ran out of mini-quiche. The 29 Cosmetics Napa Mist Atomizer contains rose water and grape seed extract, which is packed full of antioxidants. As a bonus it's also refillable, so your hostess will also be doing her part in cutting down on the waste in landfills. Who could ask for a more elegant yet earth-friendly gift?
