Have you guys got all your gift shopping done yet? Or are you just getting started? I admittedly did 90% of shopping even before Black Friday, but there always ends up being a couple more that I realize I need when it gets closer to the holidays. I rounded up some great gift ideas for those beauty lovers in your life! And all at different price points! Who knows, you may even find a gift idea for yourself!
Colorescience Total Protection Face Sheild SPF 50 – Glow – $39
Sunscreen is a must year-round, so why not protect and hydrate your skin with the best liquid mineral sunscreen available? I love Colorescience so much I’ve written a few times about them! Colorescience Total Protection Face Sheild comes in three shades (original, bronze and glow) for the perfect shade for all skin tones. I’ve found that the shade “glow” is perfect for creating a luminous look while keeping skin safe with it’s zero cast SPF 50 protection! Wear it alone or underneath makeup – works well both ways! All Colorscience sunscreen is non-nano and reef safe.
Colorescience Total Protection Sheer Matte SPF 30 – $45
Not everyone likes the feel of a liquid sunscreen which is why brush-on mineral sunscreen is such an awesome option! Colorescience has new brush-on sunscreen for those with oily skin, their Sheer Matte formula. It’s easy to apply any time of the day and works great for men, women, and kids while still offering SPF 30 coverage. It has no tint to it, has an antimicrobial brush head, and helps minimize the look of pores with a few circular sweeps of the product.
Dermalogica Your Brightest Glow Yet set – $94
A glowing, brighter complexion is always skincare goals and the Dermalogica Your Brightest Glow set will get you there. It includes their Biolumin Vitamin C serum which exfoliates, rebuilds, and plumps the skin along with their matching eye serum for the more delicate skin around the eyes. Perfect for anyone upping their anti-aging game!
Spiced Almond Zum Yule Lip & Lather set – $9.95
I was introduced to the cruelty-free brand, Zum Soap just this year and immediately fell in love with all of their plant-based aromatherapy enhanced bath, body, skincare and cleaning products. The bar soaps are out of this world and don’t leave you with dry skin and are fragranced like no other. I love the scent of Almond, but kinda went bananas when I saw they had a holiday “Spiced Almond” set for gifting that includes their goat’s milk soap and a lip balm. If you’re wondering what the scent is like, think Marzipan mixed with Clove and Fir needle. I guarantee even you’re liquid soap loving friends will enjoy this set!
Holiday Mini Zum Soap Set – $12
This might be the cutest little bar soap set I’ve seen. The Zum Holiday Mini Zum Soap Set includes three mini bars of their fragrance goat’s milk soap bars housed in a cute holiday box. Zum soaps are fragranced with custom-blended essential oils and colored with mineral pigments. My favorite scent in the set? Lavender Mint is something I need in my life year-round — not just the holidays! All Zum products are cruelty-free, gluten-free, and vegetarian.
Fresh Sugar Lip Best Sellers Ornament – $45
Have a lip balm lover in your life? This limited edition set includes six versions of Fresh Beauty’s Sugar Lip Balms so your beauty aficionado can keep one just about everywhere you stash ‘em away. Four of the balms are in beautiful lip-enhancing tints while two apply clear (the lip treatment and mint). Sugar lip balms always glide on extremely smooth and are always an exciting treat!
Fresh Rose Day & Night Skincare set – $59
Know someone who loves to pamper their skin? The Fresh Rose Day & Night Skincare set is the perfect luxurious skin treat we all want for ourselves. It includes the Rose Toner which is ultra-soothing, a travel-sized Rose Deep Hydration Face Cream which hydrates the skin for up to 24 hours, and their travel-sized Deep Hydration Sleeping Mask which locks in moisture overnight so you can wake up to dewy skin. Your dry and normal skin-type friends will thank you!
Fresh Mini Loves Set – $35
Not sure what your skincare loving friend needs but know that they love pampering their skin? The Fresh Mini Loves Set is a fun place to start. I’ve actually gone through two of these sets myself! The set includes a handful of their cult classics like their Soy Fresh Cleanser (A fave of mine!), their anti-pollution Kombucha Essence which sweeps away impurities and their lip smoothing, Sugar lip treatment. The containers are on the smaller side, but they give you enough to use them quite a few times before deciding if you want to get a full-sized item later on.
Farmacy Green House Set – $48
One of my favorite clean beauty brands that I talk about all the time! Farmacy’s Green House set includes their amazing Green Clean Cleansing Balm (a MUST have for makeup and sunscreen removal) in a full-sized tub, along with a smaller sized Cherry Up Vitamin C Eye Cream (a super bouncy, hydrating eye cream) and their Daily Greens Oil-Free Moisturizer (Great for those with oily or combo skin types). I use all three of these products and love them all! For each kit sold, Farmacy will donate five meals to families in need. How awesome is that?!
Daily Concepts Well Being Ritual Set – $45
Know someone who takes self-care beyond a typical mask? Daily Concepts has a huge range of products that are perfect for your self-care aficionado friends. Their Well Being Ritual Set includes a gorgeous dual-sided jade roller made of 100% semi-precious stone that can be used for reducing facial puffiness, lymphatic draining, massage, and increasing circulation. The set also includes a bottle of their multi-use Iris Jade oil that looks gorgeous on its own with flowers IN the bottle!
Daily Concepts Body Scrubber – $10-$30
This may be more in line with a stocking stuffer, but I LOVE my body scrubber so I wanted to include it. This is about 100 times better than any of those plastic mesh poofy things you’ll find at stores. For one, The scrub cloth on the outside feels SO good on the skin. It exfoliates the skin just enough, can produce a ton of lather with your body wash, and has a hanging bag and suction cup to keep it tucked away in your shower. So if you want to feel Bougie on a budget, get this scrubber!
Pixi Beauty Multi Toning Gift Set – $22
Pixi Beauty is one of my favorite beauty brands and I have tried just about everything from them (almost). Their toners are top-notch so this set of their most popular tonics will put a smile on a skincare lover’s face. You can’t get this set any other time of the year so now is the time to snag it!
Pixi Beauty Multi Moisturizing Gift Set – $22
Everyone needs a good moisturizer and Pixi has you covered with their holiday trio that includes their Hydrating Milky Lotion that can be used on the face and body, their pHenomenal Gel that balances the skin, and their Retinol Jasmine Lotion which smoothes. All three work for all skin types, and can be layered or used alone!
Pixi Beauty Eye Effects Shadow Palette – $22
A good palette can offer years of creative fun and I love the Rosette Ray one from Pixi Beauty. The nine shade palette contains a mix of mattes and shimmers to create gorgeous looks from bold to subtle, and is compact enough to keep in a makeup bag.
Pop Beauty Makeup – $8-12
Cruelty-free and vegan brand, Pop Beauty has an entire line of cosmetics that will please any neutral/natural loving makeup kinda girl. The Lightshow Shadow Palette comes in four color stories (Basic is shown here), and has a variety of textures and tones to pique the interest of your inner makeup artist. Want to add a little extra glimmer? Their Flash Shadow liquid glitter eyeshadow will take a look from natural to glam in no time. The Plump Pout is an old favorite of mine. This cushiony gloss comes in a unique flat tube and has a slightly minty flavor to it. “Bare Nectar” gives you a gorgeous YLBB glossy pout and keeps your lips feeling fully hydrated. And to round out the bunch, their Prismatic Pop illuminating Palette works great for creating a luminous, healthy glow on the face.
Pop Beauty lip/eye masks – $10
Lip and Eye patches are always a fun gift to give (and use!) Hydrogel masks saturated in hyaluronic acid, peptides or licorice help to plump and hydrate the skin of the lips and under eye areas for a refreshed look. I love using the Pop Beauty Pucker Up Lip Patches before getting my makeup started and the Eye Snatched patches work great at both morning and night for depuffing under eyes or winding down for the night when you do the rest of your skincare routine.
Target Mascara Gift set – $14.99
I feel like everyone is always on the hunt for a holy grail mascara and Target made it easy to test a bunch with their 6-piece gift set of lash defining mascaras. If you bought each of these mascaras alone it would value $59 so this is a steal for sampling a good range of popular choices! I’ve been dying to try the Honest beauty one and I already know I love the CoverGirl option! This entire set has me covered for the entire next year!
There are so many good options out there that I had a hard time keeping my list as condensed as possible! I hope you found something you love! Let me know if you end up buying anything!
Your photography is magnificent. These are great items you’ve received. I think anyone would be thrilled.
Love those pixi palettes. Great gift suggestions
I agree with Marcia: your photos are so enticing! I need the mini Zum bar set, as well as the Fresh kits
I saw a Maybelline Mascara set, similar to the Target one, that I was going to buy. Think I will grab the Target Mascara set first!
These are fantastic gift ideas!
Loving these sets! I always love getting beauty sets as gifts!
Great list! I got the fresh lip balms for my daughter.
Ooh, so many great options! I could definitely make use of the mascara set. I love trying drugstore formulas.
