Best Skincare Gift Sets

AMOREPACIFIC® The Essential Icons Set

Each luxurious formula in The Essential Icons Set ($72) boasts powerful anti-aging and antioxidant benefits derived from green tea extract. (Fun fact: the brand grows, harvests, and processes its own green tea on a private plantation on Jeju Island plantation.) The comprehensive regimen includes the award-winning Enzyme Peel and Vintage Single Extract Essence.

Tata Harper® Jumbo Resurfacing Mask

Tata Harper Resurfacing Mask, Glow Giving Mask, 100% Natural, Made Fresh in Vermont, 30ml
  • All-natural and non-toxic ingredients Hand Made in Vermont
  • Pink Clay gently exfoliates and cleanses while stimulating blood and lymph circulation

If you’ve tried and loved this iconic Tata Harper mask, you know the disappointment that comes with finishing a jar. This year, the brand has created an enviable Jumbo Resurfacing Mask ($125) alongside an ultra soft face applicator brush, stashed in a festive box. The gel formula is propelled by fruit enzymes and beta hydroxy acids: just paint it on, wait 15 to 30 minutes, then rinse off. The mask gently exfoliates to reveal a party-ready complexion.

Goldfaden MD® The Glow Kit

Never underestimate the importance and power of regular exfoliation and eye area care: these two steps are absolutely crucial to an effective anti-aging regimen. The Goldfaden MD The Glow Kit ($98) addresses both concerns with brand classics: Fresh-A-Peel and Bright Eyes. Use the peptide-packed eye cream consistently day and night and minimize the signs of puffiness and fatigue. Then treat yourself to the gentle acid resurfacer a few times a week — it will help deliver a glow to your complexion long after the holidays are over. You’ll also get a bonus: a travel-sized version of the brand’s Skin Balancing Mask.

This brand is known for whipping up clean, hard-working products, and in its Cream of the Crop ($42) collection, you’ll get three of Farmacy’s bestsellers. There’s a full size tub of the lush cleansing balm, plus a couple of sidekicks from the brand’s honey line — such as ultra hydrating mask and moisturizer. Each formula is infused with its trademark potion, antioxidant-rich Echinacea Green EnvyTM, which has a high chicoric acid content to stimulate collagen production and promote even skin tone.
