7 Beauty Stocking Stuffers To Bring Seasonal Good Cheer

This cream version of Dr. Barbara Sturm’s famous Glow Drops is the ultimate contender in beauty gifting because it delivers instant summer-holiday skin, even in the depths of winter. Hyaluronic acid, polysaccharides and mineral pigments team up for fast-tracked radiance that blurs imperfections beautifully. Wear it alone for a dewy no-makeup look, or apply a sheer veil of foundation overtop for skin that seems truly lit-from-within.

Putting the ‘beauty’ into beauty sleep, this gorgeous pure silk eye mask from Slip does more than just block out unwanted light (although that is key to a good night’s sleep); the silk helps keep skin hydrated (unlike cotton pillowcases), ensuring you wake up with brighter, fresher-looking eyes. It’s super-comfortable to wear, too, while the beautiful zodiac pattern (choose from all 12 signs) will add a touch of glamour to your night-time routine.

This is the ideal gift for the true high-tech-skincare lover, someone looking for a routine revamp, or simply to treat yourself if you’re heading away for a week. The slick box contains seven days’ worth of individually wrapped and perfectly dosed skin treats. Containing four of Noble Panacea’s key skincare steps, the set includes the Intense Renewal Serum and Restoring Eye Cream, plus high-science treatment creams for both day and night. It’s a great way to discover both the excellence of this covetable range and a new, healthy, glowing complexion.

Anchored by a matte plum-brown shade (ideal for crafting a soft smoky eye), Charlotte Tilbury’s combination of shimmering pink, gold and copper eyeshadows provides everything you need for a variety of day-to-night makeup looks. Wear them muted with a hit of glittering gold dusted over lids to catch the light, or go for a more dramatic copper worn under a blown-out brown for a head-turning, jewel-toned, neutral smoky eye. The options are endless.

Dr. Maryam Zamani is a leading oculoplastic surgeon regularly enlisted by the A-list, and, as such, her dedicated eye products have a cult following. This set of 10 hydrogel under-eye patches is no exception, expertly targeting all under-eye skin concerns. Alternate between the two bestselling eye masks in the set, twice a week (there are five each of the Hydra-Bright Gold and Anti-Pollution Illuminating Eye Masks) to tighten, brighten, smooth and depuff skin in 15 minutes. Mess-free and easy to use (keep them in the fridge for an extra-cooling effect), they make the perfect stocking stuffer for beauty novices and experts alike.

If there’s one lip look you want a palette of shades for, it’s a suits-all, wear-anywhere nude lip. Layering multiple beige tones together ensures your lips look multi-dimensional rather than flat and washed out, and this classic quartet of colours comes in sheer, melt-into-skin textures that are super-easy to blend. Wear the Warm Rose shade on its own or blended with Café Crème, which Gucci Westman describes as a really beautiful ’60s mod beige. Add depth to the pinky-nude Peony with a smudge of the deeper-toned Mulled Wine – there’s a custom concoction for everyone here. What’s more, peptides, avocado and jojoba oils add volume, hydration and nourishment for a fuller, plumper finish.

Famous for its excellent hair and skincare lines, this much-loved serum from Augustinus Bader delivers the same impressive results when it comes to more luxuriant lashes and thicker brows. Containing the brand’s unique repairing Trigger Factor Complex, found in all its products, this serum keeps follicles healthy while minimizing hair shedding and breakage – because, just like our hair, our lashes can become brittle and damaged, too. What’s more, it also comes with a slightly chunkier applicator, which makes it super-easy to use. Even better? The slim size means it fits perfectly into a Christmas stocking, toiletry bag or makeup kit.
