Save on luxury beauty gift sets this Christmas
Find out how you can save money on the best luxury beauty gift sets this Christmas. From perfume sets to luxurious bath lotions, you can pamper yourself silly this year without spending a fortune. Plus we’ll show you how to make your own!
Best value beauty gift sets
A girl can spend hours at Christmas looking around department stores for all these nicely packaged gift sets in pretty boxes and make up bags. However, more often than not, these gorgeous packages come with a hefty price tag.
Don’t panic! The Moneymagpies have had a look around and found some absolutely sensational beauty sets at an affordable price.
Our top five
1. Benefit Project Flawless Makeup gift set – £26.55Save £2.95 on this brilliant gift set from Debenhams. With all the Benefit topsellers hidden inside this festive box, whoever you give this to is going to feel like a star. There are gorgeous blushers, lipgloss and mascara’s to make every girl glow. Plus, you can personalize the front of the box with a photo making it feel really unique.
This is the perfect present for somebody who loves Olay, but doesn’t like the cost. It comes with a gentle refreshing face wash as well as an incredible rejuvenating day cream which makes skin feel smooth and cared for. The best thing about it is the price – under a tenner, but it looks like a lot more! The cheapest price that we found is from CheapSmells and it comes with FREE delivery!
This fantastic gift set is perfect for pampering on the move. Full of gorgeous items that are small enough to take on a plane, there’s a beautifully scented body lotion, wash, scrub and foam, all contained in a cute case. It retails on the Sanctuary site at over £10, but Boots are offering it for just £6!

4. Ted Baker It’s a small world mini hat-box gift set – £10
This miniature gift set is ideal for anyone going away this Christmas. It contains pocket-sized body scrubs, lotions and sprays have a delicate scent of bergamot, patchouli and red fruit designed to keep you feeling (and smelling) sensational! Available from Boots.

Make your own beauty gift set
Do you want to add something more personal to a gift set or think you can save more money? Have a go at making your own with these tips.
- Buy small wicker baskets from places like Wilkinson and Poundland to create your gift set. You can then decorate these baskets with things like tinsel, ribbons and cellophane to create a more Christmassy look and add personal style. You could even decorate it with real holly and ivy if you’ve got any near you!
- Set a theme such as bath goodies or make up. Running a theme for the gift set makes it look like you have put more of an effort into it and, who knows – they might even believe it’s shop-bought. Shops like Poundland and Boots’ own Natural Collection make cheap but attractive cosmetics which you could use to make sure your gift set looks up to scratch.
- Add some more treats. Make your gift set even more personal, beautiful or Christmas-y by adding little extras such as chocolate coins or the person receiving the gift’s favourite sweets – just to give that extra special touch. It will look like you’ve put more effort into the gift-set and you’ll get double brownie points mixing chocolate with beauty!
