Words by Tanya Small
Looking for a beauty gift? There’s so much to discover at Harrods – from sparkling eyeshadow palettes and bold lipsticks to rejuvenating skincare sets and mesmerising fragrances. Here, we’ve curated a list of our current favourite beauty gifts – all editor-approved, of course. We hope you love them as much as we do.
Elemis Ultra Smart Pro-Collagen Night Serum
Exclusive
Know someone who never gets their beauty sleep? Treat them to a night-time miracle with this Harrods-exclusive Elemis serum. The formula incorporates firming freshwater microalgae, antioxidant-rich green tea and rejuvenating wild olive plant to plump, firm and brighten skin overnight. So, even if a good night’s sleep eludes them, looking fresh faced never will.
Sensai Ultimate The Cream Limited-Edition Set
Those who have the time to indulge in their skincare routine will know that it really can become a self-care ritual. Help them elevate their routine with this luxurious gift set from Sensai. It includes Ultimate The Cream, a decadently rich moisturiser that cultivates smooth-as-silk skin, as well as travel-sized bottles of The Lotion II, The Cleansing Oil and The Creamy Soap, which are perfectly sized for popping into their handbag.
Kylie Cosmetics Tea Time Lip Kit
Exclusive
Say the words ‘lip kit’, and it’s Kylie Cosmetics that comes to mind. Since the brand first launched almost ten years ago, it’s been the beauty world’s go-to for perfectly paired lip combos. There are so many shades to choose from, but Tea Time is a great choice for gifting because it’s a warm, pink-hued neutral that will suit a variety of skin tones. It can even be paired with a dark lip liner for a more ’90s-inspired look.
Estée Lauder Re-Nutriv Ultimate Diamond Transformative Brilliance Soft Creme
Consider this transformative Estée Lauder cream the ultimate all-rounder, designed to work across six different areas of your skin. Inspired by over 15 years of research into skin longevity (the science of preserving your skin’s vitality), it harnesses the power of exclusive black truffle extract and SIRTIVITY-LP™. So, what can the lucky recipient expect when they use it? Reduced dark spots, fine lines and post-blemish marks, as well as improved smoothness, firmness and radiance. A true gift indeed!
Armani/Privé Cuir Majesté Eau de Parfum
Armani’s Cuir Majesté is the kind of scent that will have everyone asking what you’re wearing. It’s got a powerful oud base and a slightly sweet bouquet of roses at its heart. Whether this is their first foray into the world of fine fragrance, or they have a collection of scents that could rival our Salon de Parfums, it’s likely they won’t be disappointed by this Harrods-exclusive scent.
LYMA Laser Pro x Aspinal of London
They might love a trip to the salon, but what about the days when they simply don’t have the time? LYMA’s Laser Pro has revolutionised beauty treatments, making it possible to achieve professional skincare results from home. It’s a portable laser therapy device that deeply penetrates your muscle tissue to rebuild your skin – and it does so without causing any pain or damage. The Laser Pro can help with the appearance of wrinkles, cellulite, hyper-pigmentation, scarring and much more. And for a limited time only, it comes with an embossed Aspinal of London travel pouch – perfect for gifting.
Tom Ford Amber Intrigue Eau de Parfum
Exclusive
Lovers of warm, comforting scents will find themselves swooning over Tom Ford’s Amber Intrigue. The ingredients dance together, leaving a mysterious trail of violet, sandalwood and sweet date. As the name suggests, golden, honeyed amber is at the core of the fragrance, making this a lovely choice for those who sway towards sweet, earthy scents.
Dr. Barbara Sturm Winter Kit
Healthy, hydrated skin can be difficult to maintain during cold weather. Thankfully, the formulas in this Dr. Barbara Sturm winter skincare kit are lipid-and antioxidant-rich. Not only will they boost hydration levels, but they’ll also seal and protect the skin barrier. This set includes a cleanser, face mask, calming serum, night serum, eye cream, face cream and lip balm – all encased in a stylish puffer bag that they can carry with them wherever they go.
Clé de Peau Beauté La Crème City of Dreamlight Collection
Few products can rival Clé de Peau Beauté’s enchanting range of glow-boosting products, which always come in jewel-like jars and beautifully adorned boxes. This Christmas, it’s the City of Dreamlight holiday collection, created in collaboration with French artist Mr. Jean Dalin, that steals the show. Our top pick is the iconic La Crème. Formulated with CeraFerment extract to boost radiance and retinol to stimulate cell turnover, this intensely moisturising night cream is just as good as it looks.
Huda Beauty Gold Obsession Eyeshadow Palette
Exclusive
When it comes to eyeshadow, most people tend to have a preference: matte or shimmer. But there’s no reason why everyone can’t become a sparkly eyeshadow queen once in a while. This Huda Beauty palette has captured every shimmering shade of gold you can think of – including a champagne pink and a bright coin hue. The shades are buttery soft and oh-so easy to blend, and there are three matte shadows included too, which means they’ll have their base and transition shades all in one palette.
Lancôme Absolue Travel Set
Those who always travel in style will love this gift set of mirrored gold Absolue skincare minis. Inside, they’ll find a selection of firming and brightening Absolue products: the Soft Cream, Serum Intensive Concentrate, Revitalizing Eye Cream and Rose 80 Lotion (exclusive to Harrods) – all in airport-approved sizes, of course. Plus, for an extra touch of luxe, the statement travel case is designed to resemble Lancôme’s Absolue Perpetual rose – a special flower harvested exclusively for this skincare range in the South of France.
