It might be a little late, but with the shipping speeds that Amazon and some retailers have now, I still wanted to publish the best holiday gifts for the beauty lover in your life. The price ranges will include more affordable to high end products. If anything these would be perfect for birthdays and anniversaries as well.
The Best Holiday Gifts 2022
1. Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF
I had to place the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF as the first gift because it’s definitely my favorite skincare find of 2022. I remember when this sunscreen went viral and I really was unsure as to whether this would live up to the hype. I’m here to say that it definitely does live up to the hype and more.
It’s my favorite SPF ever. I’ve purchased this multiple times and I have multiple backups. I will keep repurchasing this product. It has no white cast, super moisturizing on the skin, and it feels great on application. No other sunscreen compares in my opinion.
AVAILABLE AT STYLEKOREAN & AMAZON. $10-26 approx.
2. DIOR LIP GLOW OIL
This is another product that has gone viral in the last year. There’s a reason that this has gone viral as well. It’s just a great lip oil. The applicator is just the perfect size and it makes putting on lip oil enjoyable. This a perfect gift for the beauty lover who may not want to splurge on Dior, but has been eyeing the lip oil.
You can get it at Sephora for 20% off with their sale right now or you can get it through Dior, which gives you the cutest holiday packaging, so you don’t have to gift wrap!
AVAILABLE AT SEPHORA & DIOR. $38 approx.
3. Diptyque Ilio & Do Son
Diptyque is one of those fragrance lines that I’ve always blind purchased from. No testing in store, I just read the descriptions and picked what I thought I would love. The brand has yet to lead me astray. Ilio would have to be my favorite scent from the line, it’s just a great fresh scent, but Do Son is a close second contender with the subtle Jasmine notes.
When it comes to Diptyque, I’m always in love with the depth of their fragrances and how they are able to create scents that last a long time.
AVAILABLE AT NORDSTROM. $115-165 approx.
4. FARMACY GREEN CLEAN MAKEUP REMOVING CLEANSING BALM
By far my favorite cleansing balm of 2022 was definitely the Farmacy Green Clean Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm. It’s SUCH a good cleansing balm. Mind you, I used to be team cleansing oils. I only liked cleansing oils prior to trying this product out. But this product was definitely a game changer.
The way it melts down and emulsifies is just so, sooo beautiful. I’m happy that I discovered this product because otherwise I would still be team cleansing oils. Everyone needs to try out this product at least once in their life.
AVAILABLE AT SEPHORA & FARMACY. $24-36 approx.

5. SOL DE JANEIRO BRAZILIAN BUM BUM BODY CREAM
My favorite body cream ever. Really, it’s been my favorite body cream for at least five years now. The scent is so distinct, but it’s such a pretty scent that actually lasts on you unlike other body creams. I really like the texture on this one too. I remember first seeing this when all the Beauty bloggers got it in PR and was obsessed with it years and years ago and I had to pick it up. This was one of those products that I was not led astray.
Definitely a splurge in comparison to most body creams but I mean, it really is an experience and I love using it. It makes me happy to prioritize self care and body care on a daily basis.
AVAILABLE AT SEPHORA. $22-85 approx.
Summary
Overall, these are the best holiday gifts for the beauty lover that I would love to receive again, WINK WINK. Too bad my husband doesn’t read my blog, so I’m going to have to let him know myself.
