To help you out, I’ve compiled a list of the best holiday gifts anyone would be delighted to receive. Keep reading to find the perfect present for everyone on your list.
Congruous
This kit holds all the essentials to nourish and cleanse your skin. Featuring the Resurrection Aromatique Hand Wash, Resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm, Geranium Leaf Body Scrub, and Geranium Leaf Body Cleanser your giftee can hop in the most soothing shower/bath experience, ever. Consider this a must-have buy for anyone on your list.
Bo Eau de Parfum
Whenever I spritz on this fragrance, I always get asked what I’m wearing. With notes of tobacco leaves, cedar, and vanilla beans, this perfume distills a warm, woody scent into a minimalist glass bottle that looks as good as it smells. (It comes in a candle version, too.)
Poetry Subscription
Writer Garth Greenwell referred to poetry as an “accoutrement to life.” This book subscription sends the recipient six poetry books over the course of the year, giving them beautiful and striking language to illuminate their day-to-day life.
Les Ecrins Parfumés Cartier Désert Scented Candle
This candle will fill the space with an earthy aroma with floral and herbal notes sprinkled throughout. The reusable ceramic case is also the ultimate eye candy for any room.
La Sculpture Facial
We could all use a little more relaxation during the holiday season, so why not gift a facial? One of the best treatments I got this year was with New York City-based aesthetician Crystal Greene. Greene’s signature facial gives the client a soothing sculpt and an incredible glow that will last long after the treatment ends.
Celestial Nirvana: Eye Shadow Palette
This Pat McGrath palette is housed in eye-catching gilded packaging but even more remarkable are the shades inside. The heart-emblazoned eyeshadow palette features five bold and shimmering hues with incredible color payoff.
Screenplay Book
For the movie buffs on your list, you can’t go wrong with this Moonlight screenplay book from A24 Films. Inside you’ll find a foreword by musician Frank Ocean, the Academy Award-winning screenplay, an essay by writer Hilton Als, and the acceptance speeches from the 2017 Oscars.
Cellular 3-Minute Peel
This peel is formulated with alpha hydroxy acids, beta hydroxy acids, and salicylic acid to get rid of dead skin cells without stressing out your skin. Use it consistently and you’ll notice softer skin, smoother texture, and fewer dark spots.
Squeaky and Cheeky Duo Holiday Gift Set
If someone on your list is partial to a fresh, minimalist makeup look, this Westman Atelier set is for them. The hydrating lip balm and vibrant cheek stick will impart a natural-looking glow all over.
Spice is Nice Skincare Set
Why choose one body product when you can have them all in this energizing body care set from Origins? The set includes a body wash, smoothing body cream, and whipped body butter for a relaxing shower routine.
Medium Pearl Drop Earrings
Sometimes the best gifts come in small packages, like this pair of drop earrings from Sophie Buhai. The smooth pearl drop earrings are the ultimate statement accessory.
Extra Añejo
If you couldn’t tell by the gorgeous and sculptural bottle it’s housed in, this isn’t your average tequila. The brand only harvests fully ripe agave grown sustainably in Jalisco before they are cooked in stone ovens and double distilled. Then, the Extra Añejo bottle is aged for seven years resulting in a flavorful and memorable tequila drinking experience.
Online Studio Membership
For anyone who can’t attend a Tracy Anderson Studio class in-person (studios locations include NYC, Hamptons, Los Angeles, Palm Beach, Madrid, and London), the Online Studio is the next best thing. In addition to classes and a library of bonus workouts, the Online Studio membership also gives you access to recipes and the latest digital issues of Tracy Anderson Magazine.
Solution No. 3 Eau de Parfum
This Off-White fragrance contains multitudes, just like the fashion house itself. At the heart of the fragrance is rose adding a classic touch to the scent, while notes like pink pepper and musk add depth and dimension.
Lindy Woven Clutch
You can never go wrong with a little black clutch and this beyond chic version is perfect for the fashion-forward friend who's always dressed to the nines.
