The Best Skincare Sets to Gift Your Friends, or Yourself

by Marianne Mychaskiw

Fact: When holiday shopping for your nearest and dearest, bear in mind that skincare is always a good option. Not only are you putting your friends onto some new, potentially life-changing formulas, but you’re also encouraging them to lean into their self-care habits — a much needed move in the chaos that is and has been 2020. That’s why we put together a list of Goodhabit giftables so you can treat your friends, or yourself. No judgement!

 

For the Self-Care Enthusiast
They have a positive affirmation to help soothe over any situation, and their ideal Friday night consists of luxuriating in a bubble bath, glass of red in hand, as the Oprah podcast plays in the background. Complement their zen-like attitude with our Merry & Bright Kit, packed with our Texture Magic Exfoliating Toner and Water Jelly Dew Cream to promote a complexion as balanced as their emotional state. The gentle, yet powerful, triple-acid blend in our toner sloughs away dead skin cells to reveal a smooth, radiant complexion, and is formulated at the ideal pH of 3.7 to work with even the most sensitive skin types. Top it off with a layer of our humectant-rich hydrator, which delivers heavyweight moisture with a lightweight texture. Is that our Merry & Bright Kit at work, or is your aura especially strong today?

For the Friend Always On-The-Go
Their Google Calendar alerts may as well be their religion — they believe in schedules that strongly. If it’s not on their to-do list, then it doesn’t exist, and time management is practically their middle name. Gift them a skincare lineup that multitasks as well as they do, with high-level items prioritized in our Glisten & Glow Kit. Our Clean Scene Micellar Gel whisks away all traces of makeup, dirt, and oil without any rinsing required, while our Glow Potion Oil-Serum simultaneously does the work of a nourishing oil, revitalizing essence, and hydrating serum in one fell swoop.

For the Skincare Fanatic
They’re the first ones to know about trending topics in the skincare realm, and you’ll never ever catch them going to bed without washing their face and applying the lineup of serums stashed in their medicine cabinet first. Their collection of jade rollers and skincare tools rivals Princess Ariel’s gadgets and gizmos a-plenty, but one area where they’re probably lacking? Factoring in blue light protection, of course. Streamline their 20-step skincare routine to the items they actually need. Packed with our entire Rescue Me collection (but fun sized!), our Mix & Mingle Mini Kit includes the four must-have formulas no skincare aficionado should be without: The Clean Scene Micellar Gel, Texture Magic Exfoliating Toner, Glow Potion Oil-Serum, and the Water Jelly Dew Cream. These trial sizes are perfect for test-driving the entire line before committing to a full-size bottle, and pack enough punch to launch into a full-blown obsession. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

Regardless of the set you choose, one thing is certain: Goodhabit’s kits are guaranteed to give long after the holidays come to a close. Suddenly, that new year’s resolution of prioritizing skincare just got a lot easier to accomplish.
