Valentine’s Day gifts for your girlfriend or wife
Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream Starter Kit
Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to splurge on a high-end skincare gift for your girlfriend or wife, and this starter kit from British brand Augustinus Bader–a noted celebrity favorite–definitely fits the bill. It contains travel-sized versions of The Cream Cleansing Gel, The Essence facial exfoliator, The Rich Cream anti-aging moisturizer, and The Face Oil. All four products are tucked into a brilliant blue mesh bag with copper details that match Augustinus Bader’s signature color scheme. This set is a good fit for dry skin. For a lighter option, you’ll want to go with The Cream Starter Kit.
SkinCeuticals Anti-Aging Skin System
Your sweetheart will be truly impressed when she opens this kit from skincare favorite SkinCeuticals. It contains three of the brand’s top-selling anti-aging formulas: SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic Antioxidant Serum, SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Interrupter Advanced, and SkinCeuticals Resveratrol B.E. These antioxidant-rich formulas work in tandem to help brighten skin tone, improve firmness, and prevent future photoaging.
Valentine’s Day gifts for your boyfriend or husband
Baxter of California Eau de Parfum
The fragrance is a traditional Valentine’s Day gift, and this nature-inspired cologne from the grooming gurus at Baxter of California will surely be well-received. Inspired by the forested canyons of California, this fragrance features a base of sandalwood and red cedar and top notes of nutmeg and apple peel. Another scent option is Valley Mist, which features top notes of lemon, bergamot, and ocean mist and a base of Cypress trees, driftwood, and musk.
The Art of Shaving Full-Size Kit with Synthetic Brush
Spoil your sweetie with a new shaving regimen from The Art of Shaving. This four-piece kit comes in two fragrance options–sandalwood and unscented–and features a pre-shave oil, shaving cream, aftershave balm, and a soft-bristled shaving brush to work up a rich lather for a close shave.
Elemis Skin Soothe Shave Gel
Cooling menthol and micro-capsules of marine extracts and jojoba oil elevate this shave gel from an everyday necessity to a luxurious grooming gift. “This is a personal favorite of mine when it comes to shave gels,” says board-certified dermatologist and LovelySkin C.E.O. Dr. Joel Schlessinger. “It helps reduce irritation, so you can achieve a smooth, close shave with less chance of razor burn or ingrown hairs.”
Valentine’s Day gifts for your daughter
Eminence Organics Clear Skin Starter Set
This cute cucumber-themed set from Eminence Organics makes a great Valentine’s Day gift for your daughter if she has combination or acne-prone skin. Tucked inside a white woven bag with a bamboo zipper pull, you’ll find four clarifying face products made with organic ingredients such as cucumber juice, tea tree oil, and yogurt-derived lactic acid: the Eminence Organics Clear Skin Probiotic Cleanser, Clear Skin Probiotic Masque, Clear Skin Probiotic Moisturizer and Clear Skin Willow Bark Booster Serum. These products work just as well on adult skin as they would for a tween daughter who is just getting into skin care.
Jane Iredale ColorLuxe Hydrating Cream Lipstick
A lipstick with a lustrous formula and trendy color is just the right Valentine’s Day gift for your daughter. We’re big fans of this lipstick from Jane Iredale, which softens and nourishes lips with ingredients such as cocoa butter and sunflower seed oil. It’s highly pigmented with a satin finish and comes in color choices such as Tutu (a barely there ballet pink), Espresso (deep, warm brown), and Candy Apple (a bright, bold red).
Valentine’s Day gifts for your sister
LovelySkin LUXE Vita-CE with Ferulic Acid & Exfoliating Gel Mild 11% Duo
Looking for just the right Valentine’s Day gift for your skin-care-obsessed sister? This Duo from Dr. Schlessinger’s line, LovelySkin LUXE, helps target visible signs of aging so she can put her best face forward. LovelySkin LUXE Exfoliating Gel Mild contains 11% afaLUXE, a dermatologist-developed ingredient that exfoliates gently and effectively to improve skin texture and reduce acne breakouts. A complementary product, LovelySkin LUXE VITA-CE with Ferulic Acid is an antioxidant facial serum with vitamins E and C, ferulic acid, and peptides to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles as well as dark spots and uneven skin tone.
Glo Skin Beauty Solution Primers
The makeup maven in your life will appreciate this line of long-lasting primers that come in four different formulas with multitasking skin benefits. The Blurring Primer minimizes the look of pores, moisturizes skin with ceramides, and dries to a soft-focus, velvety finish. The Hydrating Primer has hyaluronic acid to help balance dehydrated skin and leave it looking dewy and fresh. The Illuminating Primer helps fade discoloration over time with vitamin C and provides a radiant finish thanks to reflective minerals. Last but not least, the Mattifying Primer works best for combination or oily skin to help reduce shine and maintain a matte finish throughout the Day.
Valentine’s Day gifts for your mom
Emma Hardie Moringa Luxury Bath & Shower Oil
When it comes to Valentine’s Day gifts for your mom, we love the idea of giving an indulgent bath product she might not splurge on for herself. This bath and shower oil helps smooth and soften skin with a blend of nourishing ingredients, including sweet almond oil, grapeseed oil, olive oil, and moringa seed oil. It has a floral, citrus-forward scent thanks to bergamot, jasmine, mandarin peel oil, and neroli flower oil.
Laura Geller Italian Marble Artistry Collection
Mom’s makeup cabinet deserves a refresh for Valentine’s Day this year. This kit features Laura Geller’s trademark marbleized pigments, which are swirled together and baked for 24 hours to create a blendable, buildable final product. Along with a mirrored palette with five eyeshadow shades, there’s also lipstick and a solid blush stick in neutral pink-leaning hues.
