Beauty Lover Christmas Gift Guide

For the beauty lover, the Christmas season is one of the most anticipated times of the year. As the social calendar fills up, so does their excitement for all things glam — think soft neutrals, glossy lips, and luminous skin that catches the festive light just right. But beauty isn’t just about the shine; it’s also about the essentials: cleansing, hydrating, and prepping the skin to perfection. Whether they’re into the art of makeup, the science of skincare, or both, this guide features product ideas that will have them covered on all bases (pardon the pun).
 

Loops facemasks from Mecca Maxima are a crowd favourite and the perfect start to any party routine (or recovery for that matter). If they are the first to snap up the latest products, Priceline has just debuted BUBBLE, a new skincare line. A pop of colour in the form of a BUBBLE moisturiser makes for an ideal stocking filler and will be sure to show you’ve got your finger on the beauty pulse.
 

Another popular item in shoppers' carts this year, and for good reason, is the AiryDry SPF+ from Sephora, perfect for Queensland Summer. For a splurge item on someone special, try a spritz from the D.S. & Durga lineup, available at Mecca Cosmetica.
 

If you want a sure fire hit, brands like Clarins and Clinique, available at Myer, have been loved by beauty enthusiasts for decades and make for fail-proof gifts.
