Being beauty obsessed, I love to give beauty gifts, even to those who don’t have the time or interest to invest in beauty products. My friends and family know that I’ll always choose something appropriate for them – something they’ll actually use!

Finding a gift for the seasoned beauty lover or the natural beauty is easy, but what do you give the person who has neither the time or patience to commit to a beauty regimen? Our picks feature multi-tasking products, which are simple to use and quick to apply. Read on for my gift recommendations for the Girl-on-the-Go!

When I’m rushed in the morning, the last thing I remember is perfume. Roller balls are the answer in these situations – they’re portable and perfect for stashing in your bag.

Not only does the Bath and Body Works Winter White Cool Shimmer Roll-On ($3.75 US) have the most chic packaging ever, the price is so great that you can buy all the other scents and gift them to your best girlfriend so that she can stash these everywhere. The white shimmer is subtle enough to wear for day, and the woodsy floral is perfect for the season.

I think that everyone looks better with a slight flush (psst.. I’m talking to you Twilight!); it makes you look happy and healthy. For the friend who won’t stop to take the time to apply blush, give her Benefit Tinted Love Set ($38 US) featuring a quick drying stain to give her the same result in half the time.

Included in this set is a full sized bottle of Benefit’s popular BeneTint, full-sized Pocket Pal, which has a mini BeneTint and clear gloss on each side, plus a red clutch. She can apply this sheer rose liquid to her cheeks and lips for a stain of color that won’t budge. It’ll only take 2 minutes to look totally fab.

Tell your friend to do like the French and apply a swipe of bold color on the lips with a bare eye and face. It’s a great look that will take seconds if you give her Bare Escentuals Buxom Babes About Town ($39 US), a set that includes 4 Buxom Big & Healthy Lip Sticks and 4 Buxom Lip Polishes.

She can line her lips and fill them in with the Big & Healthy Lip Sticks in 1 minute and apply the plumping glosses in another. It’s a fast paced lip look that doesn’t need tips or tricks to do. The best part is that she can mix and match the 8 colors for endless combos.

I seriously don’t understand how people can shower in 5 minutes. My 15-minute shower is a time for me to relax and let the hot steam work its reviving magic on any stress I have. Try to persuade your loved one that there is another purpose to showering than getting clean with the adorable Philosophy The Bake Shoppe Set ($22 US).

Included are two three-in-one bubble bath, shampoo, and shower gels, a body lotion, and lip shine. The theme is bake shoppe, so you know that the scents Philosophy is famous for – Sweet Creamy Frosting, Raspberry Mousse, and Pink Frosted Layer Cake – are going to be amazing! This value kit will encourage your friend to slow down and take life one shower/bath at a time.

What treats here are your favorite? Are you thinking about introducing your friend to some of these goodies?
