11 Gorgeous Beauty Gift Sets From Under €20

By Sarah Halliwell

From skin, hair and body care to home fragrances, these gift sets offer the best bang for your buck …

IMMENSE-STEPPE-KIT-FOR-A-SHAVE-TO-PERFECTION

1 Davines is a beautiful, Italian-based B Corp brand; they were considering their environmental impact long before it became a pre-requisite, and their hair and skincare products are excellent. The gift sets are particularly attractive this year: try the Pasta & Love set for men (€42.70), and the Mysterious Polar Bear hair set for blondes (€82.50). Davines is stocked at Romina Daniel salon in Dublin 2 and online at www.millies.ie.

Noble-Piere

2 Anything from Cloon Keen is a delight, frankly, and this limited-edition duo of candles, Noble Fir and Noble Myrrh (€65), is as beautifully presented and special as everything you’ll find in their boutiques. The very best.

PR_Effortless-Glow-Skinset

3 Trinny London gift sets start from €38, for this Effortless Glow Make-up Set featuring three key products. We love the bigger make-up sets, complete with transparent silver case, too.

Laneige

4 Laneige sets are selling fast at Space NK, including the Midnight Minis (currently €17) and the neat Hydration to Go (€26.35) travel skincare set.

Charlotte-Tilbury---bag

5 Charlotte Tilbury beauty sets are always eye-catching. Star item is the Beauty Treasure Chest (currently €182.75 – worth nearly €500), which doubles as a beauty or jewellery holder for the rest of the year. The Mini Lip Trio (€28) is a cute stocking-filler. And this Pillow Talk Dreams Come True Set, in a giant pink vanity case, contains 15 full-size items.

Sol-de-Janeiro

6 Sol de Janeiro cheers everyone up – just what we need in December. Cheirosa Mist & Mini Fragrance Gift (€140) and Bom Dia Bodycare Extravaganza (€230) are bright, colourful boxes filled with sweetly scented body care treats.

Re-Eau

7 Try new Irish-based brand Re-Eau, inspired by the scents of Brazil and made in Portugal. The gift sets, from €80, feature items such as the clean and refreshing alcohol-free scents, candles and body cream. The scents are ideal for those preferring a lighter fragrance, and the focus is on cooling down, so they’d be suitable for during the menopause, as well as for warmer days or coping with stuffy central heating.

Le-dELU

8 Head to Peter Mark for a wide selection of haircare gift sets, including haircare from Irish-owned Sea+Solu and The Smooth Company, plus Alfaparf. Styling gift sets include this drier and straightener set in cherry (currently €374.25).

Rituals

9 Rituals has a great range of gift sets at every price point. We love this luxurious Ritual of Jing set (€59.90), with its giant velvety toiletry bag filled with everything from creams to diffuser.

Max-Benjamin-Fresh-Linen-Water

10 Max Benjamin’s French Linen Water candle and diffuser set (€50) will see you through Christmas – and the diffuser is refillable (we also love the Seville Orange scent). Irish, sustainable, attractive – this is the kind of gift set we love. (NB There are some great bargains available at the moment, with candles from €14 – stock up!)

pestle-mortar

11 We love the Pestle & Mortar Chummi Lip Mask (though would prefer it without the extra packaging – the pot by itself is enough). It’s a lovely buttery texture, and this set gives you two for €24 (usually €20 each, though currently €14 each).
