Vogue's Christmas 2020 gift guide: Perfumes, makeup, skincare and more that are perfect for every kind of beauty enthusiast

In a year when self-care was prioritised, even those that barely had a skincare routine began experimenting with masks, creams and multiple-step regimens. If you're a beauty obsessive, 2020 only cemented it further, urging you to embrace DIYs, try new products and spend more time researching and finding what you love—whether its a new perfume or a face tool you don't know how you lived without. But as we start looking forward to 2021, the holiday season is the perfect time to pamper yourself and your loved ones. With the staggering amount of gift sets and beauty products in the aisles and available online now, it can be overwhelming to narrow down on the right one. We put together a list of beauty and wellness products that'll work for whoever you're going to be gifting this Christmas. 

Gifts for a skincare connoisseur 

From a brand-new glow-boosting four-step regimen to an at-home spa kit that'll let you enjoy the self-care experience at home, here’s what any person obsessed with skincare will be hoping to find under the tree this year. Does your loved one love a face mask? Does she like doing at-home facials? There's a perfect present for that.

For the hair-obsessed

There's one thing that will give your friend, sister or SO an instant mood boost: a good hair day. The right haircare and hairstyling products and tools make for the perfect holiday present, especially when they're treatments that'll restore strands, tools that'll let you try the coolest new styles, and haircare products that'll make every shower more than just a rinse-and-repeat. 

The makeup products to gift 

Whether they like going all-out, they prefer a more natural look, like copying every YouTube tutorial out there, or just need a restock of the essentials, there's definitely a makeup product that everyone on your list will really love. Even the makeup lover that seems like they have everything can always use a fun new palette or a bold lipstick shade to mix things up.

The best gifts for the fragrance lover

Perfumes will serve as the most memorable gift this holiday season. From display-worthy candles you'll want to keep burning, to perfumes that'll become new favourites, these fragrance-centric presents will make a lasting impact. 

The homegrown brands to support in 2020

While you're thinking of the perfect gift, are you looking to support your favourite brands too? Small businesses like these work with narrow margins and uplift local communities, so the next time you're looking to buy a product that'll feel as good as it'll work, shop from this list.
