Sunday Riley Power Couple Advanced Retinol and Lactic Acid Duo

View On Sephora View On Anthropologie View On Macy's

Who wouldn’t appreciate the gift of smoother, brighter, more youthful skin? Sunday Riley is a fave skincare brand of team Byrdie; here, you get a retinol night oil and their beloved Good Genes lactic acid treatment. When we tested it, we found that it left our skin smoother, plumper, and more radiant, not to mention it delivered results impressively fast.

Necessaire The Body Ritual Set

High-end bath and body products are always a universally crowd-pleasing gift, and Necessaire makes some of our favorites. Everything is clean, gender-neutral, and comes in sophisticated packaging: check, check, and check. This set comes with travel-friendly versions of their lotion, body scrub, and body wash, which we deemed perfect for turning your shower into a spa-like experience.

Glow Recipe Fruit Babies Bestsellers Kit

View On Sephora View On Glowrecipe.com View On Kohls.com

Nothing against Edible Arrangements, but this is our preferred way of giving a “fruity” gift. This skincare set features five of the brand’s best-sellers: there’s an avocado cleanser, watermelon toner and dew drops, plum plumping cream, and a strawberry salicylic serum. We tested that serum and found it was fabulous for preventing new breakouts, while leaving skin hydrated and irritation-free.

Laneige Midnight to Morning Hydration Set

View On Sephora View On Laneige.com

Dry skin (and lips) don’t stand a chance against the heavy-hitting hydrating formulas found in this kit. There are two different sleeping masks, a water-based one that’s great for brightening and a cica-based one that’s great for soothing, alongside the cult-classic lip sleeping mask. We found that it moisturized our lips so well overnight that it rendered the midday lip balm touch-up nonexistent.

Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Jet Set

View On Sephora View On Kohls.com View On Soldejaneiro.com

Another cute bath and body set, the star of the show is the brand’s cult-favorite Bum Bum cream, a firming and toning formula. There are also a shower gel and fragrance mist included, all in the brand’s signature gourmand scent, a combo of pistachio and salted caramel.

Supergoop! SPF Best-Sellers Kit

View On Nordstrom View On Sephora View On Revolve

Sunscreen most definitely falls into the more ‘practical present’ category, but this set still feels special enough to be giftable. It comes with three of the brand’s best-selling SPFs, so whomever you’re giving it to can try them all out and figure out which one is their fave. (Which will be hard to do since they’re all super lightweight and cosmetically elegant.)

Phlur Missing Person Perfume Set

View On Sephora View On Phlur.com View On Selfridges.com

Giving just one fragrance can be a little bit risky (especially if you don’t  know someone’s scent preferences), but this perfume mitigates that risk. It’s warm and spicy though still sheer, and somehow magically adjusts to each individual to smell slightly different yet equally intoxicating. There are both full and travel sizes included in this set.

Is it a fragrance set or a makeup set? Answer: a little bit of both, which is why we like it so much. There’s both a rollerball of Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia, a bright and sweet floral, and a buildable Mascara L’Obscur included.
