Before there was Spotify, there were Hit Clips (remember those?). If you grew up in the '90s, you were no stranger to cute, handheld tech (like Game Boys and Tamagotchis), dial-up internet (gross), boy bands (never forget), and possibly the coolest, most colorful beauty products of all time. Regarding the latter, the '90s produced some of the most unique beauty trends, and some of us still live and breathe them. Ahead are our favorite beauty gifts for friends who love the decade. Cue the nostalgia.
The portable beauty organizer that once housed your scrunchies, butterfly clips, and body glitter has gotten a millennial pink makeover with the Caboodles On-the-Go Girl Makeup Case ($18).
From teenage sleepover staple to festival necessity, the roll-on body glitter trend is still alive and well. Take this Lavender Stardust Roll-On Shimmer Body Glitter ($10) as an example.
You might have had one in your hair (or on your wrist) at all times. Scrunchies' modern makeover entails elevated textures like the Velvet Hair Scrunchie Set ($12).
Kitsch gave the jaw clips that may have held up your hair through class a chic, marble paint job with the Marble Round Claw Clip 3PC Set ($14).
The Lancome Juicy Tubes Holiday Gift Set Lip Gloss ($20) may take you back to your very first kiss.
If the name Billie DreamPop Razor ($9) doesn't elicit any form of nostalgia, the use of the bright, colorblock hardware will do it.
The Lip Smacker 24-Piece Balm Set ($20) will transport you to your teenage bedroom or first car — basically anywhere you might have kept (and lost) one of these.
Summers were not complete without a bottle of Sun-In. Ouai's next-gen version of a spray-on hair lightener, the Sun of a Beach Ombré Spray ($24) is more gentle on your hair and the perfect gift for your beach-loving friend.
