Makeup gift sets for the special ladies in your life

Forgotten a birthday? Missed an important anniversary? We’ve all been there - some of us multiples times! Treat your beauty-conscious companions to luxurious products they’ll love including skincare gift sets, eyeshadow palette gift sets, highlighter gift sets and plenty more. All skin tones and styles are catered for with products that will suit every budget. These are a few of the Sephora categories that might fill you with giftspiration:

Lipstick gift sets

The beauty of lipstick as a gift? However many your recipient has, she's unlikely to own that exact shade. However, rather than run the risk, consider treating her to a multi-product lipstick gift set. Sephora favourites include the Two Lil Mattemoiselles Plush Matte Lipstick Duo from Fenty Beauty. These handbag essentials come in dusty rose and bold burgundy so their owner can switch between sweet and daring personas at their will. Another popular lipstick gift set option is the Color Splash Cocktail Lipstick Duo from Tarte. These vegan lipsticks are creamy and long-wearing for a luxurious, guilt-free gift. Switch between nude matte and brilliant red.

Eyeshadow palette gift sets

Treat a loved one to an eyeshadow palette gift set. From eyeshadow duos to 20+ palette sets, you can suit your pocket as well as your friend’s style. The Eye-Conic Multi-Finish Eyeshadow Palette from Marc Jacobs contains seven luxurious, highly-pigmented colours in a mix of glitter and matte finishes. Choose between five palettes to receive a set of colours that will perfectly complement each other.

Highlighter gift sets

Treat your loved one to the gift of healthy, glowing skin with a stunning highlighter gift set. The Love You So Mochi Highlighting Palette by NYX Professional Makeup contains three light-reflecting highlighters which can be blended together to achieve the ultimate glow. Only a small amount of product is necessary to create results so this gift may last until her next birthday!

Beauty essentials gift sets

Not sure what’s low in her makeup bag? Kit it out with a bit of everything thanks to a Sephora beauty essentials gift set. These handy kits contain a combination of makeup must-haves, for example mascara, blusher, highlighter and eyeshadow. The Hippe Go Lucky Set by Benefit Cosmetics includes five makeup essentials in a stylish bag. These kits are perfect for festivals, weekends away and daily use.

Makeup palette gift sets

Similar to a beauty essentials gift set, the benefit of a makeup palette gift set is that it includes everything she needs in one place. The Complexionista Palette from Benefit Cosmetics contains a concealer, bronzer, luminiser and highlighter. These highly-pigmented products craft a creamy, long-lasting finish that no gift recipient could turn down! Better yet, the products come in a handy compact case that can be popped in a small handbag.

Brush gift sets

If your friend is a powder princess or contour queen, chances are she loves her makeup brushes. Brush gift sets don’t get more luxurious than the Opulence Brush Set by Zoeva. These 10 high-quality brushes are expertly crafted from synthetic fibres to fit different areas of the face and eyelids. They feature ridged handles for easy grip and stylish gold embossment. For a glamorous girly gift, this brush set is a real winner.

Skincare gift sets

For a practical present that will add a little luxury to a friend’s daily skincare routine, consider a skincare gift set. Many such sets boast sophisticated skincare devices, while others feature your favourite skincare essentials like cleanser and moisturiser. The 3 Step System Set from Kora Organics by Miranda Kerr provides a simple yet effective facial treatment using natural, nourishing ingredients. All skin types are catered for - simply choose between dry, sensitive or oily/combination. The cleanser, mist, and moisturiser provided aim to refine skin for a clear, radiant complexion.
