Buying beauty gifts for the people you love isn’t necessarily easy. Skin types, hair types, shade matching—these are all major factors that dictate a beauty purchase, and if you’re trying to err on the side of surprise, it can be a struggle to know exactly what to purchase (and ensure that your giftee will love it!). That’s why when I’m checking items off my holiday gifting list, I always return to body care products. Show me a person who doesn’t enjoy a deeply moisturizing hand cream, or a luxe body wash, or a hand soap so insanely luxurious and highbrow they’d never buy it for themselves. That’s where you, a bona fide beauty expert, come in to treat your besties to the must-have body care essentials for the holidays.
No matter your loved one’s beauty proclivities, I guarantee that they’ll enjoy anything from one of my three hero categories: cleansing, moisturizing, and treating. Anything under the umbrella of this trio is a surefire win with your loved ones—and you don’t even have to guess their shade. Here’s everything I’m eyeing in the body care aisle to finish my holiday shopping ahead of schedule.
