13 Spectacular Gifts for Beauty Lovers

We can all admit that gift-giving can be a little (okay, maybe a lot) stressful.

But we’re here to make gift-giving a breeze. Consider going through pages and pages of Google tabs to find the perfect gift a thing of the past.

Whether the recipient is a skincare fiend, a makeup aficionado, or likes awesome, life-changing accessories, we have the perfect gift guide for all kinds of beauty lovers in your life.

Since Kinder Beauty is completely vegan and cruelty-free, all of the gift ideas below are, too. We believe that the people you love deserve the best, kindest gifts out there. Products that don’t come at the expense of any animal lives make for great gifts that your friends and family can feel super good about using—and you’ll feel good about giving them, too! 

Skincare gift ideas

Dry skin, wrinkles, fine lines, pimples, dullness … we all struggle with these things. And the people in your life are not an exception.

Gentle skincare can be a great gift for those who want to get their glow on. But unless you know exactly what their skin type is, it’s probably best to get products that are friendly for all skin types.

1. Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patches

“Mighty” is an understatement—miracle is more like it. These fast-acting, invisible pimple patches can be worn day or night, under makeup or by themselves. They’re virtually impossible to see when on the skin, so they can work their magic when you’re out and about and no one will have a clue. 

These were featured in our October 2020 box and were an absolute hit.

2. Earth Harbor Mermaid Milk Moisturizer

A Kinder Beauty fan-fave since July 2020, Mermaid Milk is exactly what all skin types need. Formulated to hydrate, tighten, and fight breakouts, this moisturizer nourishes like no other to bring out everyone’s inner mermaid glow. Trust us—one use of this potion, and it’ll quickly become a staple in anyone’s routine.

3. Dirty Lamb Ultra Night Serum

There’s a reason this serum has a place in the Kinder Faves Box. The hydration this baby delivers is unmatched—it’s really the best way to end the day. Plus, it’s made from gentle ingredients (like all of the products we send in our boxes!), making it the perfect partner for sensitive skin. Whoever is on the receiving end of this won’t be able to thank you enough. 

We also currently have the Ultra Day Serum in our marketplace—this duo is unreal.

4. Earth Harbor Laguna Body Serum

If you really want to gift skincare but have no idea what to get, a beautiful body oil, like Laguna, is a great choice. This serum gifts skin with softness, hydration, and essential nutrients to promote nourishment and overall protection. And seriously, it smells like a vacation in a bottle—it’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

Makeup gift ideas

We all have die-hard makeup lovers in our lives. And finding a gift for the person who has it all can be tricky. But we think there are a couple of products all makeup-lovers just have to have.

1. My Little Mascara’s Length + Definition and Volume + Curl Mascaras 

Don’t underestimate these little tubes—they know how to pack a punch. These mascaras are awesome gifts for beginners and seasoned makeup lovers alike. Great for both on-the-go and daily use, these little miracle workers will make any and all lashes pop. 

2. Rare Beauty’s Liquid Blush 

You can never go wrong with a vegan and cruelty-free blush. This blush glides on and adds color to the cheeks like a dream. And the liquid formula is long-lasting, easy to apply, and ultra-pigmented for a gorgeous, natural-looking flush. 

Also try the Mented Cosmetics Blush, which delivers beautifully bright hues made to stay all day.

3. Folly Fire Astral Lip Gloss

Recently featured in our October Box, this lip gloss is drool-worthy (or, should we say, drool-proof?). These glosses are made to make lips look star-flecked, irresistible, and otherworldly. One of these powerful tubes makes for a unique gift all beauty lovers are sure to obsess over. 

Accessories and lifestyle gifts

If picking out makeup colors or skincare products is a little too overwhelming, don’t freak out. The beauty lovers in your life are sure to love one of these thoughtful lifestyle gifts.

1. Moonlit Skincare Bamboo Silk Scrunchie

Chic, effortless, and most importantly painless, these silky scrunchies protect hair from breakage and damage. Haircare doesn’t always mean products; using accessories that won’t tug or rip at delicate strands can keep hair soft, voluminous, and healthier overall. Who knew, right?

2. Rose Quartz Facial Roller

Give the gift of good energy and ultimate relaxation. Facial rollers are totally taking over the beauty world because of their ability to reduce puffiness and dark circles, promote circulation, and firm up skin. Rose quartz in particular also helps with grounding, healing, and self-love!

3. Wellness Journal

Journaling is an amazing form of self-care. And, like they always say, true beauty comes from within! A guided journal can be super helpful for newbie journalists and seasoned vets alike. There are some great options from Papier that are as beautiful as they are practical. 

Really at a loss?
