Gift Sets For Specific Skin And Hair Types

Beauty gifts aimed at a specific skin or hair type can be tricky. Not only do you have to know the recipient well, but you have to be sure the gift doesn’t blatantly claim to correct a flaw. (“Happy holidays! Let’s clear up that blemished skin of yours!”)

Instead, a type-specific gift needs to be more about celebrating the type-and cute presentation always helps. That’s why we love these two:

hair rules curly hair kit: This travel-ready set is a cute, colorful combination of curl-perfecting formulas. If your recipient hasn’t heard of hair rules, the two-ounce bottles of daily cleansing cream moisturizing no suds shampoo, once-weekly aloe grapefruit purifying shampoo, quench ultra rich conditioner, and curly whip styling cream (two!) serve as a perfect intro to the brand.

Korres Yoghurt Regimen Kit: The four products in this chic set-Yoghurt Mask, White Tea Facial Fluid Cleansing Gel, Yoghurt Cream, and Evening Primrose Eye Cream-are perfect for combination or oily skin, but they’re focused more on balance than amelioration. Perfect for a friend who New Year’s resolution is to start and stick to a skincare routine, this set is also great for your wallet: it’s a $73 value for just $45.
