Skin Care Gifts They'll Actually Use

Holiday shopping is in full swing, and let’s be honest—finding the perfect gift feels like a chore. What do you get for someone who already has everything? Or that one person who says they “don’t need anything” (but you know they’d secretly love a little pampering)? That’s where we come in.

This year, skip the stress and give gifts they’ll actually use—and love. From self-care essentials to anti-aging must-haves, we’ve rounded up thoughtful options for everyone on your list. Whether it’s your spouse, your best friend, or even yourself, these gifts bring a little luxury and a whole lot of glow to the season. Let’s dive in, starting with picks for the self-care enthusiasts and ending with our founder’s personal favorites!

For the Self-care Lover

1. Lifetherapy
   Know someone who deserves a little “me time”? Help them shift their mindset and embrace well-being with Lifetherapy’s self-care line. After all, skin care is self-care. Whether they want to feel grounded, inspired by love, or recharged with energy, Lifetherapy has the solution. We have larger bottles of moisturizing hand creams, body scrubs, body lotions, or a mini collection gift set (to try all of the above). This best-selling gift set features travel-sized hydrating lotions and bubbling bath washes in all five signature fragrances. Indulge—anytime, anywhere.
2. Pure Aesthetics Gift Card
   Give the gift of instant self-care. A Pure Aesthetics gift card isn’t just another piece of plastic to lose in a wallet—it can be digitally connected to your or your giftee’s account, ensuring the balance is ready to use whenever they need a little pampering. This thoughtful gift puts relaxation and rejuvenation at their fingertips for their next visit. Just know, physical cards are still available for purchase.
3. Pure Aesthetics VIP Membership
   A one-time visit works, but imagine the life-changing feeling of year-long Pure Aesthetics visits? Treat someone you love to a Pure Aesthetics VIP Membership and give them the gift of consistency—a monthly professional service, a personalized assessment and plan, plus exclusive perks. For just $99 to start, they’ll have everything they need to prioritize themselves all year long.
4. BOTOX Treatment
   In 15 minutes, completely boost your confidence and alleviate stress about your appearance. Botox can smooth out crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines for a refreshed and confident look. It’s a great way to help someone feel happier in their own skin—because confidence is a gift that keeps on giving.

For the Anti-aging Enthusiasts

1. Skinmedica TNS Serum
   *Bestseller
   Tired of chasing results and want a product that delivers? You’ll want to invest in this liquid gold for your skin! In one sleek bottle, Skinmedica TNS Serum jumpstarts your skin’s repair mode, basically telling it to act young again. In the ingredients, you’ll notice growth factors and peptides (the stuff your skin loves but makes less of as you age). And, active ingredients to feed your skin’s repair and growth process. Our customers see visible results in sagging skin to firm skin in just 2 weeks. Use it continuously for even better results.
2. Alastin Daily Beauty Regimen
   Healthier skin doesn’t happen overnight. The ALASTIN Skincare® keeps you on a daily regimen, delivering restoration, nourishment, and hydration for a younger you. The daily regimen kit comes with Gentle Cleanser, Restorative Skin Complex with TriHex Technology®, Ultra Nourishing Moisturizer with TriHex Technology®, and HydraTint Pro Mineral Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 36 (all in travel size).
3. Skinade
   Finally, a product you can drink that shows results on the outside (and tastes great). Skinade, a scientifically formulated drink, supports the skin by working from the inside out. It rebuilds and strengthens the collagen matrix below the skin’s surface, boosts natural levels of hydration, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Because, by the age of 30, collagen production significantly reduces. The fastest way to get collagen peptides back into your body? Drink it!
4. VISIA Skin Assessment + Mini Facial
   Do you have a friend or family member who loves knowing more about their health? Who has fought with skin problems their whole life and wants to simply know why? The VISIA Skin Analysis tells you everything you ever wanted to know about your skin—the size of your pores, your skin’s texture, if any hints of sun damage exist beneath your skin. After the scan, our skin care professionals will talk you through what you can do to care for your skin for the future.

For the Simple Stocking Stuffers

1. Skinmedica HA5 Smooth & Plump Lip System
   POV: You always wanted plump and full lips. Over 90% of our patients say this two-step treatment, Skinmedica HA5 Smooth & Plump Lip System, made their lips look naturally plump after 4 weeks of application. They also agreed the overall appearance of their lips and mouth, including the lip outline and contour, improved immediately after applying. Easily slide these two applicators into a stocking and help someone achieve the lip-look they always desired.
2. Colorescience Lip Shine
   Colorescience Lip Shine fights UV rays better than Mike Tyson boxes Jake Paul. Invest in something that actually wins the holidays over. Physicians rave about how the Colorescience Lip Shine utilizes a mineral suncare offense instead of a chemical one against sun damage. All natural and all healthier for your lips. You can purchase them in four colors: pink, coral, champagne, and rose.
3. Lipsmart
   A quick application every morning or night goes a long way! Your friends and family suffering from dry and cracked lips this winter will thank you for Lipsmart. Cruelty-free and ultra-moisturizing, this product leaves the user feeling not only great about their product purchase but their long-lasting soft lips. And, no cakey residue afterward! So long, Chapstick.
4. Pure Aesthetics Gift Card
   Slip a gift card into their stocking and give them everything on this list. From an initial Visia Skin Analysis to Laser Hair Removal to SkinCare Products—anything under the sun of Pure Aesthetics can be theirs for their choosing. Select your holiday gift card amount from $50-$500 and make it happen.

Carissa Blaser’s Top Picks

1. Lifetherapy
   Self-care lovers appreciate Lifetherapy and so does Carissa, our owner and founder. We describe its scents as “The Aroma of Wellbeing.” Each fragrance is intentionally chosen to shift our mood. Customers rave that the smell is divine. Our body wash & bubbling bath lathers wonderfully, and leaves skin feeling soft and hydrated. The same can be said for our lotions, scrubs, and creams.

2. PRX Derm Perfexion Treatment Package
   A treatment that helps with acne scars, large pores, fine lines, wrinkles, and more? Yes, please! PRX Derm Perfexion stands out because it works to improve your skin without the usual peeling or discomfort of traditional treatments. It uses a special mix of ingredients that refresh and repair the deeper layers of your skin without irritating the surface. Plus, it’s gentle enough to be done any time of the year.
3. Laser Hair Removal Package
   Say goodbye to razor bumps, painful ingrown hairs, dark spots, and endless tweezing in 2025! Laser Hair Removal offers a long-term solution to unwanted body hair. Thanks to our advanced SkinTel technology and Elite iQ laser, we can safely treat all skin tones and hair types. The Elite iQ uses a precise light to target the pigment in your hair follicles, heating them until they can’t grow new hair. For the best results, we recommend a series of 10 treatments.
4. Skinade
   Last but not least, do you remember Skinade? It’s an exciting new way to rejuvenate your skin from the inside out. Unlike creams and lotions, this drink delivers essential proteins directly to your cells. Over a 30-day course, Skinade strengthens your skin, restores its youthful glow, and boosts hydration. Just one daily drink reduces wrinkles, enhances hair and nail health, and brings out your natural radiance.
