6 Utterly Amazing Beauty Gift Ideas Under £40

(Because giving great gifts shouldn’t cost the earth — literally or financially.)

Okay, hear me out. I know there are about a million blogs out there promising the “perfect Christmas gift ideas,” but I genuinely mean it when I say these really are actually utterly amazing gifts. I’ve carefully put together 6 beauty gifts that tick every box: thoughtful, beautiful, affordable, and most importantly, not just another generic bath set that smells like a early 2000's perfume disaster.

I've been where you are: wanting to buy a gift that feels special, but not wanting to blow the budget. That’s exactly why I created these gift sets, with real types of women (of all ages!) in mind. Whether it’s your skincare-obsessed sister, your eco-conscious bestie, your self-care-loving mum, or even yourself (zero judgement here), these beauty Christmas gifts are packed with intention and natural goodness.

All handmade, all under £40, and all totally free from harsh chemical - what more could you ask for.

1. The stocking-filler fanatic (and the younger ones)

Lip Balm Gift Set - £8

You know the girl — they love the little things within the little things. This little gem is the ultimate treat for anyone who loves the joy of small but thoughtful gifts. Ideal for younger girls just starting to explore skincare, this lip balm set gives them something to proudly pop in, or onto their school bag or handbag — because let’s be honest girls, there’s something magical about having your own little beauty bits.

Also, because of the frickin' cute, holographic key ring purse that the lip balm sits within, it's also a winner for younger teenagers who want to stand out with something a bit different from the usual high street picks, whilst keeping their street cred.

Think teens/tweens discovering skincare, uni students on a budget but still obsessed with beauty, or that one friend who always has a balm in every coat pocket, handbag, and bedside drawer. It’s also perfect for:

Secret Santa (under £10 win!)
Your sister who steals your lip balm every year
A thoughtful little extra for your mum, because she deserves all the extras

2. The gloss lover (and older teens)

Merry Kissmas Lip Oil Set £22

We all know a girl who always has a lip product in her hand and this Merry Kissmas Lip Oil Set is the perfect treat for them. Not only does it come with a cute, branded holographic coin purse, but inside is our best-selling Ultra Shine Lip Oil, think of it as the cooler, cleaner upgrade to the high street glosses they’ve been using.

Also great for:

Teenagers who want that glass lips look
Beauty lovers who are over the sticky gloss era
Stocking stuffers for girls who love skincare

3. The curly hair girl (or hair that needs a lil lovin')

Mane Event Hair Gift Set £37

You know the one, the mate who’s always deep conditioning, the sister who sleeps with a silk bonnet, or that girl who knows her curl type like her star sign. This Christmas beauty gift is made for that girl, the Mane Event Hair Gift Set is the ultimate haircare treat for textured, curly, coily, or dry hair that craves moisture, shine, and love.

Inside, she’ll find a trio of hair loving products made with 100% natural, plant-based ingredients that actually nourish from root to tip - no silicones, no sulphates, no harsh fillers. Just gorgeous, healthy, happy hair.

This set is perfect for:

Curly-haired girls who take their hair routine seriously (or want to start!)
Your bestie who’s gone natural and is embracing her curl journey
Someone who’s always asking for hair mask recommendations

4. The one who deserves the most (you decide on that one)

Sleigh The Day Gift Set £69

I'm gonna be real, this set is a whole vibe. The Sleigh The Day Skincare Gift Set is the kind of Christmas beauty gift that makes someone feel seen. It’s not just a few products thrown in a box, it’s a full-on self-care moment, wrapped up in a beautiful, pink organic cotton cosmetic bag. This Christmas skincare gift is perfect for just about any girl who is beauty obsessed or that deserves something a little extra special, hello mummas and that favourite aunt.

This one’s also made for:

Your skincare-loving daughter who’s levelling up her routine by pitching yours
The bestie who’s always glowing and swears by her “evening ritual”
Anyone who lights a candle, puts on a mask, and fully disappears into the tub for 45 minutes (we respect the ritual)

5. The traveller, (the no commitments kinda girl)

The Beauty Bauble £25

This one’s for the girl who’s always in motion. She’s either boarding a plane, booking her next weekend escape or simply off on her jolly's once again. Enter our Lets Glow Beauty Bauble, not only a festive ornament that looks amazing hanging on a tree, but it contains a trio of natural face oils that are perfect for on-the-go, or tucked into a handbag. Plus, it also comes with one of our branded satin hair scrunchies to make having hair tied up into a statement.

Also perfect for:

The friend who’s got more stamps in her passport than lipsticks
A Secret Santa win for the one who's always too busy to commit to a full routine
A natural skincare sampler for someone who’s just starting her glow era

6.The bath lover

Christmas Bath Salt Gift £25

This Christmas bath salt gift is for the people who can marinate in a hot, steaming bath for hours, way past the point where their fingers go full prune-mode and the water’s gone lukewarm. This bath salt set includes four different bath salt blends and is the ultimate SOS if you are looking to transport your loved ones soul to a deep state of relaxation.

As someone who personally loathes baths (yep, I said it), I will never understand how they do it. But hey, I respect the ritual as always.

This bath lovers gift is perfect for:

The friend who makes a full event out of bath time (candles, playlist, book, the works)
Your mum, sister, or nan who swears by a long soak to solve life’s problems
Anyone who says “I’m having a bath” and then disappears for 2+ hours
