There’s no arguing that skincare gift sets make the best Christmas gifts for any beauty lover. After all, skincare = self-care, and who wouldn’t want to get pampered to a relaxing skincare ritual? Not least because the winter cold tends to be far from kind to our complexions. Sure, a single moisturiser/cleanser/facial serum is a lovely present in its own right, but a skincare gift set will allow you to bag her an entire skincare routine, often at a heavily discounted price.
Although there’s still more than a month until Christmas comes about, that doesn’t mean you can afford to waste any time as all the best options will start to sell out before you know it. Obviously, the below skincare gifts aren’t all necessarily themed for the winter holidays, meaning they’re as suitable for as Christmas gifts as they are for an upcoming birthday, Valentine’s Day, celebrating a new job and other joyful occasions. Let’s be real, gifting a loved one (or yourself, why not?) a box full of skincare goodies and body washes doesn’t have to be concealed as a present. It can simply be a kind and a generous gesture to celebrate your relationship.

Skincare Kits & Routines Re-energizing Skincare Routine
Why we love it: We love Beauty Pie skincare gift sets, not least because you get ~such~ good value. By nature, Beauty Pie serves premium skincare products for a whole lot less (by cutting out the middle man and ditching extortionate markups on their prices) – and when you bundle a selection of Beauty Pie buys together? The value-for-money is even better. Case in point: this re-energising skincare bundle, which features four luxury products – from a cleanser to a serum – for £65. Their total worth is more than £220. The star of the show? It’s a toss-up between the Wonderscrub face polish which combats the effects of dullness and diminishes the appearance of pores, and the Hyaluronic Acid Serum (which is formulated with three weights of hyaluronic acid for intense hydration and smoothing).
What’s included: Jeju Daily AM/PM Multi-Phase Purifying Cleansing Milk, 190ML, WONDERSCRUB™BioBIO-Dermabraison Face Polish, 60ML, Triple Hyaluronic Acid Lipopeptide Serum, 50ML, Superdose™ Vitamin C Oxygen Boosting Moisturiser, 50ML.
