This holiday season, POPSUGAR Beauty tapped some of our favorite influencers, including popular brand owners, bloggers, pros, and celebrities, to share the gifts they would like to receive or give. Find more gifting inspiration here.

Taylor Frankel is living your dream life, and she's not even 21 yet. As a teen, Taylor, along with her sister, Ally, and mother, Jenny, founded the brand Nudestix. The line of do-it-all pencils are easy to use and have already developed a cult following. (See how easy they are to use here!) Though Taylor is a millennial, she is already a successful entrepreneur, so we would happily take her advice — including her approach to holiday shopping.

"For those of you, like me, who don't spend the whole year obsessing over what gift is perfect for that special someone (gasp) or you just realized that holiday season is like . . . this month(!), I'm going to give you some gift giving advice for the millennial gal in your life," she told POPSUGAR via email. "I really try to curate my gifts based on my budget, my friendship, and overall love for all things health, beauty and lifestyle."
