We're sure your gal pals are always a pleasure to shop for (or at least more so than your male friends), what with the similarities and history you likely share. But if you're looking for gifts that will delight no matter what, then you absolutely can't go wrong with—you guessed it—makeup. After all, what woman doesn't love receiving goodies that make her look beautiful?
