There are so many beauty gift sets filling the shelves ahead of Christmas. So, we’re doing the hard work for you and bringing you a definitive list of must-have presents available at Boots.
When you aren’t sure what to place under their Christmas tree, these are the gifts that are guaranteed to dazzle. Amongst our choices, you’ll find everything from skincare to make up and fragrance choices for him and her.
The Lash & Liner Set, Nars £25
Your quest for the perfect plumping mascara is finally over, and it even comes with a carbon black liner pencil for the slickest eye looks. From the NARS Cosmetics, meet the Climax Eyeliner & Mini Mascara Duo.
Together, they create lash volume and maximum eye drama. They each promise to stay put for up to 16 hours, so the make up lovers in your life can work a show-stopping look from day to night (or night to day).
The Winter Skin Soothers, Shiseido £53
From the ultimate Japanese beauty brand Shiseido, discover the Essential Energy Holiday Kit. It features four plumping powerhouses to keep skin smooth and moisturised all through the winter months.
Inside, loved ones will find the Essential Energy Hydrating Cream, packed with hyaluronic acid, alongside Shiseido’s Clarifying Cleansing Foam, Treatment Softener, Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate, and GINZA Night Eau de Parfum Intense. Dewy, soft skin and a seductively warm, woody perfume.
The Unforgettable Men’s Fragrance, Issey Miyake L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme £58.65
Issey Miyake L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme comes in a gift-ready set, featuring the eau de toilette and matching shower gel. The woody aquatic scent is bestselling for a reason, with yuzu accord and ultra-fresh marine notes, which are strengthened by a warm, spicy accord and a rich infusion of sandalwood.
Issey Miyake is known for crafting distinctly unique fragrances, and this cult-favourite might be the most memorable yet.
The Iconic Women’s, Narciso Rodriguez’s Musc Nude £79.90
When a gift set is this tempting, you’ll want to shop on a ‘one for them, one for me’ basis. Narciso Rodriguez’s Musc Nude Eau de Parfum lingers for longer with the accompanying body lotion and shower gel.
Together, they veil skin in a musky floriental that’s romantic and radiant, with notes of precious rose oil, orange blossom, tonka bean and an iconic heart of musc. Dreamy.
Lay It All On The Lines Set, Drunk Elephant gift sets from £20
Two words – Drunk Elephant – are enough to get any skincare lover excited. You can’t go wrong with this cult-favourite brand for stocking fillers and gift sets.
The Lay It All On The Lines Set is a Boots exclusive, and is packed with five all-steps-covered essentials for smoother, firmer skin.
They’ll be unwrapping the Beste No. 9 Jelly Cleanser, Protini Polypeptide Cream, T.L.C. Framboos Glycolic Night Serum, B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Serum, and A-Shaba Complex Eye Serum – a line-up that quenches thirsty pores while keeping dullness, fine lines and congestion at bay.
There are plenty of alternative beauty and fragrance skincare sets to be found on the highstreet this Christmas. We love this ESPA Winter Wellness Men’s Collection giftset, £40.40 from LookFantastic, as well as this Clinique Fan Favourites Beauty Gift Set, now £50, reduced from £100 at M&S.
