We've rounded together some finely picked advent calendars, gift sets, high-tech beauty gadgets, and more that your resident beauty enthusiast will be talking about for months. Here are Christmas gifts for beauty lovers that would be a worthy addition to any beauty lover's long list of holy grail essentials.
You could offer someone flowers, but why would you when you could give them flowers that last a year? This set includes two of the brand's signature long-lasting (and real) roses, as well as a candle. Choose from six different rose colors and three different candle smells. It's the ideal complement to any beauty enthusiast's vanity or bathroom.
For good reason, this immensely popular robe once had a waitlist of nearly 2,000 people. It's made of 100 percent Turkish cotton and is very comfy and absorbent—think the fluffiest and softest bath towel ever—but light enough to use all year. It comes in four neutral hues and hits just above the knee, making it ideal for any beauty enthusiast to wear while engaging in their comprehensive self-care routine.
This is a splurge, to be sure, but any beauty lover will be overjoyed to get a hot tool. This one in particular is well worth the money. It effectively functions as a hairbrush, curling iron, hot air brush, and other tools, providing options for all hair types and textures. This season, it's also available in a limited-edition blue and copper color.

There are bath towels and then there are bath towels—and this one is definitely in the latter category. The best-seller has been updated and is now 20% larger and made of GOTS-certified organic cotton. It's also ideal for upgrading any standard shower or bathing regimen because it comes in a variety of vivid colors.
This gentle facial treatment is a superlative blend of nature's most plentiful antioxidants and nourishing bio-dynamic plant extracts. Together, these ingredients work in concert to reset and restore balance to skin that is easily stressed and delicate.
Each treatment, which is expertly prepared for weekly use, draws out impurities and draws in nutrients to gently filter, decongest, decrease, and release the accumulation of daily environmental detritus. Redness and irritation can be calmed, soothed, and their look improved with the help of a calming and balancing mixture of panthenol, calendula, and cacao. The end effect is a complexion that is noticeably smoother, brighter, and more invigorated and is glowing.
A candle may not necessarily fall into the category of a beautiful Christmas gift, per se, but in our experience, we have yet to meet a beauty lover who doesn’t also love a good candle. (Actually, come to think of it, we’ve never met anyone who doesn’t love being gifted a candle.) This is the best of the holiday candle best: an iconic fragrance that’s festive without being overpowering. And the jumbo, four-wick size—with a 120-hour burn time—makes it all the more special and giftable.
A headband is an excellent method to highlight a good hair day or conceal a bad one. This one is bright and festive, with twisted black fabric and faux-pearl ornamentation, making it the ideal accent for any holiday party.
This may be the last makeup bag you'll ever need, and it's especially useful for travel. It has a surprising amount of storage space, as well as unique compartments and holders for everything from an eyelash curler to lip gloss. It is also available in fabric (which is entirely machine-washable), leather, and imitation leather materials (that have washable liners).
With this diamond-dusted highlighter, you can give the gift of shine. This baby gives a show-stopping, 3D glitter like no other, and is suitable for the face and body. There's something for every skin tone in four beautiful colors ranging from copper to platinum.
Why use a standard eye mask when you could use one tailored to help smooth out lines and wrinkles? Credit a high-end technique (developed over six years) that uses minuscule, precisely placed silicone dots to trigger tiny nerve endings in your face.
Soaks and salts are nice, but nothing beats a bath board—and this one has everything you need. There's a flip-up mirror that doubles as a media stand for your book or iPad, making it ideal for using the bath as a vanity for tasks like brow grooming or facial masking. There's also plenty of shelf space for storing a glass of wine or your favorite body scrub.

Kakadu plum and safflower oils profoundly nourish the hair, while triglycerides add sheen and silkiness.

Bath salts are another option to improve a beauty lover's bath experience. A combination of salts with arnica, skin-soothing calendula, and other ingredients—have our vote without a doubt.

Blowout queens will go crazy for this rookie, which significantly improves on regular hot air brushes. The versatile design includes two attachments (round and paddle-shaped), allowing you to achieve any type of blowout. A negative ion generator and 15 variable heat and speed settings help keep hair smooth and frizz-free.
We understand that a toothbrush may seem like an odd present, but this isn't your average toothbrush. It is tiny and sleek, making it easy to transport, and it comes with a convenient subscription refill, allowing you to replace your brush head and battery every three months.
Put this in the category of "very useful Christmas gifts they'll actually like." It consists of a patented absorbent and soft material that not only feels luxurious but also reduces hair drying time. Furthermore, the built-in strap keeps it in place.
Consider this the simple trick of contouring. The contour color is on one end of the stick and the highlight color is on the other. Both are creamy, buildable, and blendable, as well as significantly more forgiving than powders.

Any cosmetics enthusiast will appreciate receiving a brand new set of brushes, especially if they are these. They not only have a distinctive elliptical/oval design that's great for applying makeup, but they also have a unique and patented bristle fiber.
This two-piece highlighting and bronzer stick kit contains everything you need for sun-kissed, radiant skin (which we've discovered is a very common desire).
This cushiony lippie combines the best features of a lip balm (lots of moisture) with a lip gloss (mirror-like sheen), and it works equally well on its own as it does stacked on top of another lip color.
A cosmetics mirror is one of those items that *really* changes the game. This slim one won't take up much space but will always provide adequate lighting thanks to its LED bulbs. It also has a built-in phone holder, making it ideal for watching video cosmetic tutorials.
Face wipes have a poor image, but they are often necessary for removing full-face makeup. These are created with skin-conditioning components and will not irritate or pull on your skin.

What can we say about stick recipes? Let us count the ways. This trio is ideal for travel, with a short ingredient list and shades for contouring, highlighting, and blushing.
We've tried many lash curlers and keep coming back to this cult favorite. The broad curve allows you to reach every lash from corner to corner, creating a lifted and eye-opening effect even before applying mascara.
A present that is also environmentally friendly? That is something we fully support. Enter this newcomer: a 100% recyclable cotton circle made of 70% wood fiber and 30% organic cotton (both sustainably sourced). Unlike many others on the market, which feel more like fabric, this has the same feel as a standard, single-use pad—but it can be washed and reused over and again for removing makeup and/or applying toners or serums. One of these replaces 1000 single-use cotton pads, resulting in significant waste reduction.
Everyone enjoys a nice body scrub, and this one from Skin Butter will leave your skin feeling silky. It is made of sugar and a blend of plant butters and oils, and it buffs away dead skin while increasing cell renewal and flexibility. It comes in a variety of delightful flavors, but we love the ginger-lemon version, which is an energetic way to start the day.
It's not always pleasant to consider wiping a germy towel all over your newly cleansed face, yet it happens. Enter the typical washcloth substitute. It is suitable for all skin types and is constructed of eco-friendly, naturally antibacterial fibers.
Skincare enthusiasts will adore this entirely personalized choice. Take a simple quiz about your skin troubles, and you'll receive a unique serum tailored just for you (it even has your name on it!) in the mail.
Its oval form and rounded edges are intended to give your hair a lot of volume, boosting strands at the root while leaving the lengths with a lot of body and flexibility. In terms of glide performance, it worked well for our fine-haired testing but struggled for our thicker-haired tester.
Whether you want to look more put together as soon as you wake up or you just like the look of a full flutter, getting acquainted with magnetic eyelashes is a must. Unlike lash extensions, which can be damaging if not professionally removed, and adhesive falsies, which can be uncomfortable—or even dangerous—if glue seeps into your eye, magnetic eyelashes safely add volume and length to your lash line without being difficult to apply and remove, or too expensive to embrace.
Waterproof formulas are typically thought to be the best non-problematic eyeliners, but oil-free eyeliner is the way to go for individuals who desire staying power without compromising skin sensitivity or lashes.
Samantha Kolk, a green beauty makeup artist and content producer, completely agrees: Because there is no oil to potentially break down the glue in the falsies, oil-free eyeliners are perfect for false lashes and lash extensions. They're also wonderful for individuals with hooded lids because there's less movement from the oils warming up and perhaps transferring. (If you haven't previously done so, you might discover that some of your favorites are already oil-free.)
Whether you prefer falsies or natural lashes, the best oil-free eyeliners are excellent for everything from simple lines to dramatic, fun styles.
Did you know that using a regular bath towel to dry your hair can cause breakage? A microfiber hair turban will protect your (and your giftee's) strands by gently drying and preventing frizz more effectively than conventional terry cloth. This one from Aquis dries rapidly and comes in a variety of adorable hues.
This body-softening collection of six scrubbers will be appreciated by your beauty enthusiast (which is very budget-friendly, by the way). Clean Logic's unique blend of textured fibers and soft terry cloth is used in each of these colorful body scrubbers to deeply cleanse your body's pores and eliminate any dry patches along the way.
If you're anything like us, mascara is an absolute must in your everyday makeup routine. Even on the most bare-faced days, you can bet our lashes are getting a swipe from the tube. While deodorants and facial moisturizers are more often discussed in the clean beauty community, clean mascaras should not be overlooked.
The dark formulations used to raise and lengthen your lashes are frequently laced with a laundry list of potentially dangerous substances. We're talking parabens, a petroleum derivative called polybutene, carbon black (a dark powder used as a pigment produced from coal tar and containing dangerous metals), synthetic pigments and dyes, and preservatives intended to preserve these compositions from becoming bacteria breeding grounds.
But here's the good news: While it's still a relatively new area in the clean beauty world, there are lots of mascaras that don't include these dubious elements while still giving you the long, full, fluttery, glossy fringe you want.
