I'm a Beauty Editor, and These Are My Top Holiday Gift Ideas

L'Occitane Cleansing and Softening Refillable Shower Oil With Almond Oil ($30)

If you have someone on your list who is hard to shop for, allow me to turn you on to the L'Occitane Cleansing and Softening Refillable Shower Oil With Almond Oil. You simply can't go wrong with this crowd-pleaser. Not only does it smell amazing, but the luxurious oil leaves your skin feeling silky-soft. This shower oil is a tried-and-true editor favorite as detailed in our L'Occitane Cleansing and Softening Shower Oil review.

Editor Quote: "The brand claims one bottle of this product sells every 10 seconds worldwide. It's packed with sweet almond oil and grapeseed oil, and after using it for less than a week, I can truly tell why it's so popular. Unlike traditional body washes, this shower oil foams to clean off the day, producing a sweet (and not super overpowering) fragrance that leaves my skin the smoothest it's ever been from a shower wash. Before I even step out of the shower I notice that my skin looks and feels more hydrated." — Natasha Marsh, Popsugar contributor

Neutrogena 7 Days of Skin-Care Gift Set ($30)

Advent calendars always impress, and this Neutrogena 7 Days of Skin-Care Gift is no exception. It's valued at $97 but it only costs $30, making it a great gift for everyone from your BFF to your sibling. Inside you'll find the Hydro Boost Hydrating Facial Cleansing Gel, Makeup Remover Wipes (perfect for removing makeup on the go), Evenly Clear Clarifying Spray, brand-new Collagen Bank Glass Skin Mask, Hydro Boost Hydrating 100% Hydrogel Face Mask, Lip Sleeping Mask, and Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid Water Gel Moisturizer (an amazing, lightweight gel-textured moisturizer that feels like a burst of hydration when you put it on).

Saie Mini Dew Blush Trio Gift Set ($32)

Saie's Dew Blush is a beauty-editor favorite. This adorable mini gift set contains three best-selling shades — Baby, Sweetie, and Spicy — in pocket-sized tubes. The formula itself is long-lasting and so pigmented. A tiny drop applied directly to your face using the plush doe-foot applicator is enough to get sun-kissed, rosy cheeks. I've been using the same tube for ages because it lasts so long, making this affordable set a steal. You can give the set to one person or split up the minis into stocking stuffers for three people.

Emi Jay Big Effing Clip Hair Claw in Cherry Kiss ($36)

There isn't a day that goes by that I don't throw my hair up in a claw clip — the same goes for my sister and all of my friends. These Emi Jay clips make for the best presents. Priced at $36, they're not super expensive but definitely pricey enough to make for an unforgettable gift. It's even Secret Santa and White Elephant approved because, unlike makeup and skin care, where you need to know people's skin type, shades, and preferences, anyone with long-ish hair can use a cute claw clip.

Mp.H Underpainting Face Highlight & Contour Palette ($64)

Mary Phillips is a celebrity makeup artist for stars like Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner, Dua Lipa, and more. She's known for popularizing the tried-and-true method of underpainting, and she launched her own face palette to make it easy. If you have someone makeup-obsessed on your list, this is sure to impress them. The five-pan palette features different shades to highlight and contour, creating a lifted, sculpted base for your makeup. Three of our editors put it to the test — check out our Mp.H Underpainting Face Highlight and Contour Palette review.

Editor Quote: "I used the color corrector under my eyes, highlighter on my forehead, nose, and chin, and cool-toned contour to sculpt my cheekbones, forehead, and jawline. The dual-ended brush works amazingly for blending in any location, and the pigments melt into skin for a subtle yet impactful effect. I applied a skin tint over it in tapping motions to prevent the placement of my contour and highlight from shifting, and was left with a naturally lifted look. After 12 hours of wear, my makeup still looked great and I experienced only minor creasing under my eyes." — Jessica Harrington, beauty section lead

Oak Essentials The Body Routine Set ($195)

Oak Essentials, the sister brand of Jenni Kayne, has amazing skin and body-care formulas that bring the minimalist, clean vibe of the fashion brand to your medicine cabinet. The Body Routine Set contains five full-sized best-selling products: the Awaken Body Wash, Perfecting Body Wash, Dew Body Oil, Luminous Body Lotion, and Moisture Rich Body Balm. The body oil and lotion are the key to soft, supple, hydrated skin all winter long, and the body balm is great for spot treating ultra dry patches like elbows, feet, and cuticles. All of the products have a luxurious but light scent that anyone will love.

Oribe Gold Lust Shampoo and Conditioner Liter Duo Gift Set ($310)

I'm a big believer in elevating the everyday and turning the mundane into something special. One easy way to do that is to swap your usual shampoo and conditioner for this duo from Oribe. It's great for all hair types and smells heavenly. The limited-edition set for the holidays comes in a beautiful box that requires no additional wrapping, and the large one-liter size will last you months of washes.

Foreo FAQ Dual LED Panel Bundle ($979)

I'm red light's biggest fan. I have so many gadgets, from an LED hat to multiple face masks, but if you really want to treat someone — or yourself — this holiday season, you might want to consider getting a panel like this one from Foreo. It delivers the five most clinically-studied wavelengths to treat wrinkles, fine lines, acne, pigmentation, uneven texture, and dullness. Unlike a more targeted device, you get the benefits all over when you bask in front of this. It's large without being overwhelmingly so (it's about the size of a coffee table book) and really elevates your self-care routine.
