Sure, giving is better than receiving, but giving AND receiving...that can be pretty great, too, especially when it comes to holiday gifting. So whether you're shopping for your gal pals or looking to reward yourself for being such an awesome gift-giver, Polly Blitzer, Founder of BeautyBlitz.com, has found a few fab (and practical!) options that take the guesswork out of gift-giving for the ladies in your life.

Sensible gifts and sensational gifts are not mutually exclusive, and Polly is all about practicality. "Between the cold weather and all that gift-wrapping and unwrapping, our hands can really take a beating from the elements," she tells us, "So my favorite hand cream is from L'Occitane; it's their Shea Butter Hand Cream, and it's such a cult product that one is sold every three seconds around the world." So then what could be more sensible and sensational than a seasonal bouquet box that lets you sample six different scents? Among them are L'Occitane's signature Classic, as well as Lavender, Vanilla and Zesty Lime. Polly suggests, "You can give someone all six of these for $54. You can also get a bunch of sets and divide them up as stocking stuffers or keep them for yourself. I am such a huge fan and so is my husband." You can find the holiday bouquet box of hand cream at L'Occitane boutiques nationwide or at usa.loccitane.com.

Winter weather can do a number on your hair, and Polly says, "There's no better way to give an amazing gift than to guarantee someone's going to have gorgeous hair all holiday season, right?" She recommends Conair as the gold standard in the hair tool industry and their Infiniti Pro by Conair 3Q Hair Dryer. What are the 3 Q's all about? Quick, Quiet, and Quality, thanks to a first of its kind brushless motor that features up to 70% more air pressure as well as a patent-pending technology that reduces noise by up to 40%. "That means that you'll get air pressure and the styles that you want quickly and easily but with less damage from heat than you would get from an ordinary dryer, so it's actually kinder and gentler to your hair. And the motor lasts up to ten times longer than ordinary dryers," explains Polly. It's a super innovative beautifying gift for only $120 and one that's easy to find at mass retailers and drugstores.

As for the nails, Polly takes her manicure very seriously. "Now let's talk nails. This is VINYLUX Weekly Polish from CND. It's a revolutionary, innovative weekly polish system that gives you durable high-shine and week-long wear. It has a self-adhering color coat that eliminates the need for a base coat, and a top coat with new ProLight Technology that enhances durability with exposure to natural light over time," Polly tells us, adding, "VINYLUX Weekly Polish dries in just 8 and a half minutes! And CND's Holiday 2014 Gilded Dreams Collection comes in three colors: Grand Gala, Chiffon Twirl and Dazzling Dance. Love it!"

So gift gorgeously to the girls this holiday season. And should you also "accidentally" forward this info to the guy in your life who's stumped on what to get you this year, well, he just might thank you for it.
