Holiday Gift Guide
A little holiday love, from Cupid
Good lips.
Good skin.
Gifts they’ll love.
Our Holiday Gift Guide, chosen with a little extra thought. Discover lip-care luxuries, skincare by concern and complete routine gift ideas—beautifully personal, without the guesswork.
The Art & Science of Lips. A little care for the rest of the face, too.
01
Start with their wishlist. Lips first, then the skin concern they care about.
02
Choose a little or a lot. A single lovely pick, a ready-made set or a complete routine.
03
Make it theirs. Deselect what they own. Keep one focused treatment at a time.
The thoughtful-gifting edit
A gift for every wishlist.
Choose a concern to explore the “why,” the AM/PM steps and a shoppable gift routine. Each basket contains one of each selected product—even when it appears in both morning and evening steps.
01Dry lips, meet your matchMoisture, a glossy finish & a daytime SPF step
For the lip-balm-in-every-bag friend.
Cold weather, dry air and a busy holiday calendar can leave lips feeling tight. Choose a comforting lip treatment for the evening and a lip-specific SPF for daytime—a lovely little duo for someone who never leaves home without their lip care.
AM
Finish with Vacation Chardonnay Lip Oil SPF 30. Follow the label for application and reapplication, especially outdoors.
PM
Reach for ANFISA ÂN-GLOSS Ceramide Lip Treatment for a glossy, conditioned finish. Follow its label for use.
Other lovely options
Prefer a different texture? Hydrinity LUXE Lip Hydrator is another treatment option in place of the ANFISA step.
Lip care is a lovely small gift on its own. These two picks make a day-to-night pairing; they are not a prepackaged set.

02A little love for lip linesConditioning care for smoother-looking lips
For the person who takes their lip-care ritual seriously.
When the wishlist is about texture and the look of the lip contour, choose one targeted lip formula rather than a pile of overlapping treatments. Pair it with a daytime lip SPF for a thoughtful, focused gift.
AM
Use Vacation Chardonnay Lip Oil SPF 30 as the daytime lip SPF step; apply and reapply as directed.
PM
Use MBR Lip Contour Refiner on the lips and lip contour as directed on its label.
Other lovely options
DefenAge Lip Enhancer and Macrene Actives are alternative targeted lip picks. Choose one treatment to suit their preferences.
These are topical cosmetic products for the appearance and feel of the lips. They do not replace a clinical consultation, injectables or the Cupid Lift.

03For the hydration wishlistA complete routine with a lightweight HA serum
For the fresh, dewy-skin enthusiast.
Skin that feels tight or looks a little dull may appreciate a routine centered on moisture. A hyaluronic acid serum adds a hydration-focused step, while moisturizer helps keep the routine comfortable. Daily face SPF completes the morning.
AM
Cleanse → HA Immerse Serum → Ultra Light Moisturizer → EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46, applied as directed.
PM
Cleanse → HA Immerse Serum → Ultra Light Moisturizer. Follow each product’s label for amounts and frequency.
Other lovely options
Hydrinity Restorative HA Serum is an alternative to HA Immerse. ANFISA ÂN-BALM is a separate richer-texture gift for a balm lover.
Choose the texture they already enjoy. Very dry or sensitive skin may prefer a different cleanser or richer moisturizer; their existing favorites can replace these essentials.

04Thoughtful care for blemish-prone skinA simple foundation with one targeted active
For the skincare enthusiast who knows their actives.
Keep this gift practical: a cleanser, moisturizer and daily SPF, with one targeted treatment. Marini Duality contains benzoyl peroxide and retinol, so it is best gifted to someone already familiar with those ingredients and their skin’s needs.
AM
Cleanse → Ultra Light Moisturizer → EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46. Follow the sunscreen label for application and reapplication.
PM
Cleanse → Marini Duality as directed → Ultra Light Moisturizer. Introduce the active according to its label and tolerance.
Other lovely options
ZO Complexion Pads are a separate surface-oil and exfoliation option for someone who already uses them. They are not an extra step in this active routine.
Do not automatically combine Duality with AlphaRet, exfoliating pads or acid masks. Retinoids should not be used during pregnancy; ask a clinician about a suitable routine when pregnant, nursing or using prescription skincare.
Your gift, put together.

05For a more even-looking glowA brightening-focused routine, with daily SPF
For the person with a brightening serum on their list.
For someone concerned about the appearance of dark spots or uneven tone, consistent daily care makes a more considered gift than a shelf full of acids. This edit pairs a dedicated brightening serum with everyday essentials and sunscreen.
AM
Cleanse → A-Luminate Brightening Serum → Ultra Light Moisturizer → EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46, following each label.
PM
Cleanse → A-Luminate Brightening Serum → Ultra Light Moisturizer. Follow the serum’s directions for use.
Other lovely options
SkinCeuticals Phyto A+ offers another brightening-focused treatment format. Marini Luminate Face Mask is an occasional-use alternative gift, not a required extra layer.
Keep daily sun protection in the plan. Choose one concern-focused formula; do not add an acid mask to a new active routine without checking the labels and their current regimen.

06The considered renewal ritualEveryday essentials & one evening treatment
For the established skincare-routine person.
For a recipient who already enjoys active skincare, make the gift feel complete with a simple supporting routine. AlphaRet is the single evening treatment in this edit; cleanser, moisturizer and morning SPF give the gift a clear beginning and end.
AM
Cleanse → Ultra Light Moisturizer → EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46, applied as directed.
PM
Cleanse and dry skin → AlphaRet Overnight Cream as directed, avoiding the eye area → moisturizer as needed.
Other lovely options
P-TIOX and Metacell Renewal B3 are other treatment formats to explore. They are alternatives to consider, rather than automatic additions to this routine.
AlphaRet contains a retinoid and an alpha hydroxy acid. Do not automatically pair it with Duality, exfoliating pads or acid masks. Avoid retinoids during pregnancy and check with a clinician if nursing or using prescription skincare.

07Little luxuries for the eye areaA daily eye-care step & a complete face routine
For the friend who loves a small, considered luxury.
Eye care makes a lovely upgrade for someone who already has the basics covered. Build a complete gift around one daily eye formula, or choose an eye-mask treat to slip into a stocking. There is no need to layer several eye treatments together.
AM
Cleanse → Restorative Eye Complex as directed → Ultra Light Moisturizer → EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46, keeping products out of the eyes.
PM
Cleanse → Restorative Eye Complex as directed → Ultra Light Moisturizer.
Other lovely options
DefenAge 3D Eye Radiance Pro is another daily eye-care option. A KNESKO Diamond Radiance Eye Mask is a separate pampering treat.
Use a small amount as directed for the eye area. Do not apply active face treatments close to the eyes unless their labels specifically allow it.

08The “you deserve a little everything” giftEveryday face essentials, plus a lip-care favorite
For the person whose exact skincare wishlist you don’t know.
Not sure which active they use? A simple routine can feel wonderfully thoughtful. This edit keeps the focus on cleansing, moisture, daily face SPF and a glossy lip treatment. For a ready-made present, explore the retail sets below.
AM
Cleanse → Ultra Light Moisturizer → EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46. Add the lip treatment as directed; it is not a lip sunscreen.
PM
Cleanse → Ultra Light Moisturizer → ANFISA ÂN-GLOSS for the lips, following each label.
These are individual products selected together, not a prepackaged gift set. You can deselect anything they already own. Skin preferences and allergies still matter, even with everyday essentials.

A note from Cupid
A little thought goes a long way.
The best skincare gift fits the person receiving it. Keep their favorite textures, ingredients and current routine in mind.
Not sure what their skin needs?
Start with a lip-care treat, a favorite moisturizer or a ready-made set they have asked for. For active skincare, check their wishlist or ask what they already use. A thoughtful gift does not have to be a complicated routine.
How do the routine gifts work?
These are curated shopping ideas made from individual products, not new packaged bundles. Select the items you want, then add them together to your bag. One product can cover both AM and PM; you only need one bottle in the basket. Ready-made retail sets are clearly marked separately.
Can they use every concern treatment together?
Choose one concern-focused treatment at a time. The alternatives are different gift options, not instructions to layer every formula. Follow each product’s directions. Retinoids should not be used during pregnancy; consult a clinician when pregnant, nursing or using prescription skincare. These gift ideas are not personalized prescriptions.
What comes first in a skincare routine?
In general: cleanse, apply a suitable treatment, then moisturize, with sunscreen for daytime. Follow the product-specific instructions when they differ. Daily broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher is an important morning step; apply and reapply as directed.
