This holiday-themed treat captures an ambery blend of saffron and rose in a travel-sized body lotion and Eau de Parfum duo. This on-the-go pair will allow the giftee to take a sultry unisex fragrance with them wherever they go.
Give the gift of silky, healthy locks with this hair repair trio. Featuring travel-sized essentials, it’s ideal for those who’ve caught the travel bug, but are still partial to the occasional spa day (even more important when you’re on the road).
A playful bonbon filled with a mystery mini body wash and sponge. It's a great stocking stuffer for kids, teens, or anyone who just loves super cute shower accessories. The best part? You don’t even have to wrap it.
Under $50.
File this under $50 gift ideas that look like they cost a lot more. This chic cracker (by Queen-approved brand Molton Brown) contains four luxurious bath and body miniatures in four different floral and spicy scents (you’ll be able to pick up a holiday theme). Gift this unsuspectingly bougie present to the luxe-lover in your life.
If you know someone who’s never tried a Laneige Lip Balm (and you think they’d love it) Here are three travel-friendly versions in different flavours. It’s the gateway gift to getting them hooked on hydration and self-care.
Huda has done it again. This lip duo includes two of her famous products – a Faux Filler Lip Gloss and Lip Pencil designed for long-wearing high shine. A grab-and-go lip combo that would make a fabulous addition to any makeup lover’s collection.
Under $80.
A versatile styling set featuring two award-winning hair products: Dream Coat Supernatural Spray (your anti-frizz humidity fighter) and Style On Steroids (a texture-giving finishing spray). These cruelty-free hair heroes are colour-safe and ready to be appreciated.
A Juliette Has A Gun iconic travel-sized duo! This scent-pairing includes the one-note-wonder ‘Not A Perfume’ alongside the fruity-floral fragrance ‘Lust For Sun’. To pair together or wear alone? That’s the only question left for your perfume-loving recipient.
This underdog haircare hero has been causing quite a stir in the Adore office. This trio of argan-infused haircare (shampoo, conditioner and treatment mask) are a luxe way to treat and nourish your hair, plus, who doesn’t love not having to buy their own fancy shampoo? Warning: you will be tempted to borrow it.
Under $100.
Olaplex are the OG hair repair experts and they’ve rolled out a fully equipped holiday set to remind us of this. This trio contains three best-sellers formulated to restore shine and help reverse damage. Gift it to the Olaplex-obsessed (or curious) person in your life.
Help someone discover their signature scent with Lancôme’s collection of iconic fragrances. This limited edition 2024 holiday set contains five gorgeous miniatures and will gift the receiver a full-fragrance wardrobe!
Another collection of products the office is lusting after. This luxurious almond-infused body care nourishes and pampers the skin, perfect for indulging loved ones or gifting someone the best body care routine of their life.
Featuring premium grooming essentials, this set combines sleek packaging with high-performance formulas, perfect for anyone who appreciates functional luxury.
This is my go-to elevated gift for men (or anyone who loves a fancy sustainable essential in their routine). Banish their supermarket razor from the bathroom and replace it with this, long-lasting sleek safety razor.
