Photo Courtesy of Summer FridaysStart ordering your peppermint mochas, because somehow it’s already holiday beauty season, and every retailer is dropping gift sets that are almost too good.
Limited-edition palettes, viral skincare bundles, and exclusive shades are hitting shelves now. And, if we’re being honest, they’ll be gone before the first snowflake falls. Trust us, we track these launches every year, and the best ones always sell out in a blink.
There’s something about these holiday releases that makes them irresistible—maybe it’s the packaging, maybe it’s the unbeatable value—but once they’re gone, they rarely return.
If you’ve got your eye on one, don’t wait for a sale or a second reminder. Whether you’re shopping for your beauty-obsessed bestie or padding your own stash, now’s the time to move.
The countdown to the holiday season has officially begun!
Best Holiday Beauty Gift Sets of 2025:
Glossier Sugar + Spice Balm Dotcom Lip Balm Duo Makeup Gift Set
If holiday spirit had a scent, it’d be peppermint bark and ginger snap. These limited-edition lip balms are cozy, glossy perfection, and honestly, they might replace your actual desserts.
Gisou Glossy & Glazed Hair & Lip Oil Gift Set
Dry air doesn’t stand a chance against these Gisou must-haves. Shiny strands, glossy lips, and zero stickiness? That’s my kind of fall/winter flex.
OUAI St. Barts Hair & Body Mist, Leave In Conditioner & Hair Oil Gift Set
This leave-in conditioner smells like sunshine and ocean breeze in a bottle. I swear, people stop me mid-sentence to ask what perfume I’m wearing.
Glow Recipe Best of Glow Hues - Tinted Serum, Cheek & Lip Gift Set
This trio is my secret to looking alive on camera (even when I’m not). Glow Recipe’s tinted serums deliver the dewiest bronze and flush without ever feeling like makeup.
MERIT The Mini Flush Blush Balm Trio
The internet’s favorite cream blush just got a glow-up. Merit’s new trio includes a secret shade called Redux, and spoiler: it’s the warm, peachy-pink flush of your dreams.
Kosas Plump + Juicy Makeup Prep Skincare Set
These Kosas minis are almost too cute to use (almost). Once you try the spray serum, sunscreen, and lip balm, you’ll be joining me in the full-size fan club.
PHLUR Mini Perfume Sampler Set
The only thing better than a Phlur perfume? A Phlur mini perfume that looks like a shrunken version of the full-size (and happens to include every viral scent you’ve seen all over your FYP).
Saie Best of Saie Mini Vanity Case Vault
Let’s be honest: I’d buy this cherry-red cosmetic case even if it were empty. But since it’s filled with Saie’s top hits (hi, glowy primer and viral blush), resistance is futile.
Summer Fridays The Holiday Trio Set with Lip Butter Balm in Hot Cocoa & Toasted Marshmallow
Don’t sleep on Summer Fridays’ latest drop. A mini Jet Lag Mask and two limited-edition Lip Butter Balms in cozy flavors make this trio basically irresistible.
Sol de Janeiro Spritz the Season Cheirosa Perfume Mist Gift Set
There’s always that one friend who smells like heaven. Nine times out of ten, it’s Cheirosa 62 from Sol de Janeiro, and it only gets better when paired with the brand’s other faves.
