Hi friends!
I’m back with my second gift guide of the season. If you missed the first one, I’ll link it here; it was a drugstore beauty gift guide featuring sets all $20 and under. This one focuses on more luxury items so I’d say this is geared to the true beauty-obsessive in your life. I kept it really simple and picked sets that are currently available at Sephora for $50 and under. Since Sephora is probably the biggest beauty retailer in the world, my picks are bound to go out of stock some time after publishing this post, so if you are intrigued by something on this list, I say snatch it quick!
This is more tightly edited than my drugstore list in terms of the number of items featured, but instead I included a broader range of categories which are: haircare, skincare, makeup & beauty tools.
Let’s get into it!
HAIRCARE

MOROCCANOIL ULTIMATE MOISTURE FAVORITES
- $48.00 ($66.00 value) – Shop here
This gift set contains:
The Moisture Repair Shampoo, the Moisture Repair Conditioner, the Moroccanoil Treatment, & the Hand Cream Fragrance Originale.
I love Moroccanoil hair products; most, if not all (?), of their products are infused with argan oil. I think they are great quality and the smell is absolutely amazing to boot. I’ve used a lot of their hair oils & creams since my hair is processed and a bit dry, but this is for anyone who’s craving some extra hydration in their strands. Moroccanoil also started bringing out body products a few years ago and their creams are very luxurious as well so I’m sure the hand cream is gorgeous.
SKINCARE


BELIF WINTER WATERDROP KIT
- $22.00 ($48.00 value) – Shop here
This gift set contains:
The Creamy Cleansing Foam Moist, the Hungarian Water Essence, the Moisturizing Eye Bomb, the True Cream Aqua Bomb, & the Aqua Bomb Sleeping Mask.
I recently tried some products from Belif this year, and I have to say I’ve fallen in love with this brand! I want to try more myself. I first tried the Aqua Bomb and then the Moisturizing Bomb, and they both rival my love for Clinique Moisture Surge now! I think this is an awesome gift for anyone into skincare and who’s looking to sample the brand. It also looks like there are products for almost every skin type included here, which is great. And the outer packaging is just so adorable!
MAKEUP




PAT MCGRATH LABS LUST: MINI MATTETRANCE LIPSTICK TRIO
- $25.00 ($45.00 value) – Shop here
This gift set contains:
Three mini lipsticks in one of two color varieties (each set is sold separately). One color variety is Skin Show, which contains the colors: omi, 1995, & flesh 3. The other color variety is Colour Blitz, which contains the colors: obsessed, full panic, & elson.
I’m soooo tempted to buy this for myself! I’ve been interested in trying out Pat McGrath lipsticks since they initially launched, and I feel this would be an awesome place to start. And what value! Three mini’s for only $25.00! These are supposedly amazing quality and the formula promises to be hydrating, lightweight yet extremely opaque. It sounds divine!


BECCA SHIMMERING SKIN PERFECTOR PRESSED HIGHLIGHTER MINI MACARON SET
- $40.00 ($76.00 value) – Shop here
This gift set contains:
Shimmering Skin Perfector® Pressed Highlighter in Opal (neutral white gold with soft pink pearl), Vanilla Quartz (light gold infused with pink pearl), Rose Quartz (neutral pale pink with soft gold pearl), Prismatic Amethyst (pale lavender with gold, violet, and rose duo-chrome pearls).
You really can’t beat Becca highlighters. They are creamy, blendable and very buildable on the skin. They can be used in a subtle way, but can also be layered up without depositing tons of glitter or sparkle. I like to also use Becca highlighters are eyeshadows as well, and they are equally as lovely used in that way. This kit is perfect for anyone who’s really serious about highlighting, or conversely someone who’s just starting to experiment with highlighting.

STILA BIG SHOTS REDUX EYE KIT
- $17.00 ($45.00 value) – Shop here
This gift set contains:
The Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner in Intense Black, & the HUGE Extreme Lash Mascara.
This kit was originally priced at $25.00, but Sephora marked it down to only $17.00!! My mother is a huge proponent of the Stay All Day Liquid Eye Liner, and has gone through countless tubes (in both black & brown). She only uses waterproof liners these days, and this formula is her failsafe. On the other hand, I’m a big fan of the HUGE Extreme Mascara. I’ve been through at least two tubes at this point. If you like volume & length then this is the mascara for you! This is a perfect gift for either the beauty-obsessive or the beauty-minimalist.
BEAUTY TOOLS

SEPHORA COLLECTION COMPLEXION: UNCOMPLICATED BRUSH SET
- $45.00 ($117.00 value) – Shop here
This gift set contains:
Five-piece set with a foundation brush, concealer brush, powder brush, buffing brush, & detailed concealer brush. Plus faux-leather pouch & a PRO Team brush tutorial.
Sephora brushes are fantastic and this complexion set would be a great gift for someone who perhaps doesn’t wear much eye makeup, but who loves their base products. Great tools are necessary for great makeup!
Will you be treating someone this season to one of these kits? Or do you have other beauty favorites in mind? I’d love to know!

PIN IT!

Omg! I love all the packaging on these! I have a hard time buying stuff like this for others because I want to keep it for myself. 🙂
I know, packaging is like half the appeal isn’t it? 😄
Those gift sets look fantastic. I love anything from Morrocanoil and those lipsticks from Pat Mc Grath look beautiful. Great post with some great gift suggestions!
I agree. Thanks so much!
Erica, all those gifts are amazing. I especially like how they pack them. Brush set is gorgeous.
I know! I’d be happy to receive any of them to be honest!
It looks like you could pick up some good deals with these gift sets 🙂
For sure! I wouldn’t mind being gifted any of them, if I do say so myself 😉.
Ooh! I would so love either of the Pat McGrath lippie sets & the Becca highlighters. I’ve heard so many good things about both!
I got a sample of that Stila mascara once & I have to agree with you! It works really well. Can’t believe they’ve got it on sale for such a steal!
I would be happy being gifted any of these sets to be honest, but that’s why I chose them! Isn’t the Stila mascara the best?? It takes a lot for me to repurchase a mascara because I usually shop around and try so many.
