True beauty junkies know to start their holiday shopping early for one reason: because the seasonal offerings are often so cute, they sell out well before December. To give you a leg up on your shopping competition, we sought out the best limited-edition gift sets for your consideration, including Kat Von D's liquid lipstick vault and Deborah Lippmann's miniature lacquer set. But do hurry on snapping up a few of your favorites, because once they're gone, they're gone forever . . . that is, unless you're willing to spend triple the price on eBay!
Klorane Repair, Restore and Detangle Kit
When hair is dry and brittle, you want to ensure that you're being super gentle with it. This Klorane gift set ($44) includes a Tangle Teezer, a special detangling brush. Use it to carefully distribute the desert-date-packed nourishing treatments — a shampoo and conditioning mask — down and through your strands without snagging them.
Deborah Lippmann Her Majesty Gel Lab Pro Nail Polish Set
Even indecisive manicure mavens will be satisfied by this Deborah Lippmann gift ($45). It contains eight long-wearing lacquers and a strengthening hybrid base and topcoat that will keep fingers looking fancy for up to two weeks without chips.
Tocca Meet the Girls Fragrance Collection
Fragrance can be challenging to give as a gift, but anyone would be delighted to receive this 10-piece set from Tocca ($62). The scents range from crisp Cleopatra (a refreshing blend of cucumber and grapefruit) to sensual Florence, a cocktail of tuberose and apple.
Kat Von D Everlasting Obsession Liquid Lipstick Collector's Edition
This blockbuster set of liquid lipsticks ($240) made beauty junkies freak out when it was revealed on Instagram. Now that it's officially here, act fast, because it's bound to sell out. It contains 15 full-size tubes of the cult-favorite formula, including two all-new shades.
Tatcha Luminous Luxuries Set
There is little in this world that is luxurious as gold, and this sophisticated skin care set ($79) is infused with the real thing. Kim Kardashian is a fan of the dewy face mist, which makes your complexion look and feel instantly hydrated. You'll also receive gold-flecked blotting papers, a gilded mirror, and a cushy lip balm that is inlaid with 24-karat gold leaf.
DevaCurl Celebrate Super Curly Kit
Coily-haired gals will covet this four-piece gift set ($40) designed just for their strands. Along with a decadent, lather-free conditioning cleanser, the box houses an ultranourishing conditioner, moisturizing styling cream, and a soft, satiny scarf that both protects curls and keeps your next-day hair looking stylish.
Philosophy The Gingerbread House Set
This sweet Philosophy gift set ($42) contains all of the yummy scents of the holidays with none of the calories. In addition to four glosses inspired by peppermint sticks, marshmallow buttercream, and other sugary treats, you'll get four coordinating body washes that multitask as shampoos and bubble baths.
Atelier Cologne Nécessaire Nomade III
This eight-piece fragrance rollerball gift set ($45) consists of pure perfumes, so the unique scents will seriously last on skin. Our favorite is the included bestseller Orange Sanguine, which features juicy notes of blood orange, bitter orange peel, and geranium.
Belif Don't Be Flaky Set
This K-beauty skin care regimen ($38) will ensure your skin stays soft and flake-free all season long. Start by slicking on the essence, which is formulated with Hungarian water, a special blend of herbs that locks moisture and radiance into the complexion. Then top it off with the dewy face cream and the firming eye cream for a smooth, wrinkle-free face. Try refrigerating all three products before applying for a refreshing burst of hydration!
Clinique Tiny Temptations Set
The tiny lip crayons in this Clinique gift set ($50) aren't just adorable, they're good for your pucker, too. The richly moisturizing formulas are loaded with mango and shea butter to nourish Winter-worn pouts and offer varying levels of tint, from sheer to vibrant.
Lancome Le Parisian Warm Beauty Box
This glamorous train case ($60) is stuffed with 11 full-size bestsellers (including the brand's must-have makeup remover), a makeup bag, and a skin care sample, as well as a guide on how to create a festive face at home. Snag it in warm or cool tones, depending on your complexion.
Kiehl's Creme de Corps Craze Trio
Sensitive to fragrance? This trio of unscented body lotions ($28) won't upset your nose but will pamper parched skin. Even better, each bottle is individually packaged in its own festive box, so you can break up the set for three separate gifts.
Sephora Favorites Lashstash
Every holiday season, mascara addicts look forward to Sephora's formula sampler set. This year's selection ($45) boasts 10 tubes — with two of them being full-size — that allow you to customize your lash look from naturally fluttery to dramatically dense.
L'Occitane Hand Cream Soirée
L'Occitane's hand creams are internationally renowned for their intensive moisturizing properties, and this Winter, you can buy a limited-edition collection of 10 different formulas ($79). Give the whole assortment as a gift, or break up the kit to use the tubes as individual stocking stuffers (just be sure to keep one for yourself!).
Laura Mercier Le Petite Souffles Body Creme Collection
Whether your friend is an avid baker or has a patisserie addiction, this Laura Mercier body cream assortment ($62) is the perfect gift. Each of the baked-good-inspired scents will make her skin smell good enough to eat. We're partial to Almond Coconut Milk and Crème De Pistache, but all six are completely delectable.
Dr. Jart+ Snow Time Like the Present
K-Beauty fans covet Dr. Jart's natural-coverage, complexion-perfecting BB creams, and this awesome gift set ($46) includes a full-size tube of the brand's premium formula. You'll also get minis of micellar water, a superrefreshing moisturizer, and deeply hydrating Ceramidin Cream.
NYX Cosmetics Soft Matte Lip Cream Vault Set
If you love the way matte liquid lipstick looks but don't have the budget to buy designer formulas, you need to grab this huge NYX lip vault ($65). It contains 36(!) tubes of NYX's celebrated Soft Matte Lip Creams in a wide range of hues, including delicate neutrals and dramatic bold shades.
Benefit Cosmetics Dolly Darling
Benefit's four-piece collector's set ($39) features some of the brand's bestselling beauty essentials: Hoola Bronzer, pore-minimizing primer, brow-taming gel, and mascara. It's all housed in a collectible doll-head-shaped tin!
Jo Malone Christmas Miniature Candle Collection
These petite Jo Malone votives ($110) smell as beautiful as they look. Along with classic scents like Peony & Blush Suede and Green Tomato Leaf, you'll get more seasonal offerings (such as Frosted Cherry & Clove) that would be lovely additions to any holiday table.
Ulta Beauty Brilliantly Beautiful Color Essentials Collection
This gorgeous metallic box ($25) is stuffed with all the products one would need to start their makeup collection. There are eye shadows, cheek colors, lip and brow tints, as well as full-size brushes, primers, and setting sprays. But the best part is that all of the items can be removed, leaving you with a pretty jewelry box.
