The Inside Scoop On 2024’s Best Beauty Gift Sets
December 18 | 3 minute read
Words by Christie Sinclair
Gifting a beauty set almost feels like you’re cheating the system, which is exactly the point. They’re wrapped (beautifully), curated by experts (read: beauty legends) and represent pretty incredible value (buying each product separately would cost far more). Not to mention, everyone loves a beauty set. Yes, that's a fact.
The only catch? The options are almost limitless. So, we’ve enlisted the help of the very people who created them – the founders of your favourite beauty brands – to guide you in the art of gifting beauty sets this season.
Babba Rivera, Ceremonia Founder
“We are so proud to have created what we believe is the perfect holiday gift set with the Spaliday Holiday 2024 Set! The kit comes holiday-ready in a beautiful gift box, but what really sets it apart are the powerful formulas inside. It contains two award-winning bestsellers for eliminating frizz and repairing damage: the Guava Damage Repair Hair Mask and Guava Leave-In Conditioner. It also comes with a limited-edition headband to complete the at-home spa experience.
“The set is clinically proven to eliminate 60 percent of split ends and over 52 percent of frizz after only one week of use. It's the ultimate duo for dry, damaged hair, leaving your strands glossy, hydrated and repaired.
“Spaliday Holiday 2024 Set is perfect for anyone in your life who you want to gift an at-home spa moment to. I'm personally gifting the kit to all of my girlfriends and my mum this holiday season. It's also the perfect self-gift, especially if you're someone that deals with hair damage from heat tools or colour treatments.”
Michelle Feeney, Floral Street Founder
“Fragrance is an incredibly personal gift, but that’s exactly what makes it so special. At Floral Street, we’ve made it easier than ever to gift fragrance with our Deluxe Fragrance Discovery Wardrobe. It’s the perfect way to explore and experiment with a wardrobe of scents. Our collection has something for everyone.
“A way to learn friends’ preferences is to host a perfume party. I love to invite a bunch of girlfriends over in the evening and we have a glass of wine and a smelling session. It’s so much fun to explore and also surprise ourselves with what we like. Gifting a beautiful candle or diffuser is also a great way to deliver long-lasting happiness and fragrance during the holiday season.”

“Our Starlight Glow Radiant Duo Set offers the perfect balance of self-care, indulgence and real results.
“The Baume de Rose Hydrating Sheet Mask is a skin saviour, cocooning it with rich hydration. After just one use, the skin feels smoother, plumper, and completely refreshed. I recommend keeping it in the fridge before use for a cooling, de-puffing effect. Don’t waste the leftover serum – massage it into your skin as an overnight treatment to lock in hydration and wake up with a soft, glowing complexion. It’s like giving your skin a rose-infused spa treatment!
“Then there’s the Brightening CC Serum in ‘Sunny Flash’ – a glow-enhancing must-have. It instantly brightens and evens out skin tone with a sunkissed, lit-from-within radiance that flatters every complexion. It’s perfect for those who don’t enjoy the feeling of heavy coverage, as it’s feather-light and breathable, leaving your skin feeling as good as it looks.
“Together, these two products create the ultimate duo for achieving that fresh, radiant glow – whether you're prepping your skin before a big event, reviving it the morning after, or enjoying a night in. It’s multitasking beauty at its finest.”
Noella Gabriel, ELEMIS Co-Founder
A skincare gift set, says Gabriel, “is perfect for anyone who is looking for a routine that will set their skin up for optimum skin health.”
“Great skincare routines always begin with two essential steps: cleansing and moisturising. These fundamental steps are key to achieving and maintaining healthy skin, making them indispensable in any daily regimen.
“Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm is the perfect first step, this transformative 3-in-1 cleansing balm removes long-wear makeup and impurities while hydrating and nourishing the skin.
“Pro-Collagen Marine Cream is a lightweight softening gel cream that firms, smooths and hydrates the skin, making it the perfect partner product to apply after cleansing your skin with our pro-collagen cleansing balm.”
