2021 Holiday Gift Guide
Need a hand with your holiday shopping this season? We’re here to make it easy on you. Nothing says treat yourself like the perfect beauty or skincare bundle from Gameela Skin.
Whether you’re shopping for friends, coworkers, or your significant other, we’ve got the best picks for everyone on your list. From stocking stuffers to complete gift sets, our skincare pros have curated a 2021 gift guide to help you give the gift of self care and glowing skin this holiday season.
Gifts For the Skincare Lover
Calling all skincare lovers! We know there’s a lot of you here.😏 Gameela Skin has put together an assortment of products available for purchase that will address any and all skin types and concerns. Let’s walk through it.
Our Rhonda Allison face masks make a great gift for those who enjoy at-home, weekly skin treatments. Choose from an assortment of masks that promote healing, decreased inflammation, and revitalized skin. Plus, throw in our custom made mask brush applicator to make his/her at-home skincare routine *almost* as enjoyable as our spa treatments.
Go above and beyond and pair any of these masks with a cleanser, scrub, serum, moisturizer, or SPF that aligns with their skin type. If you need a recommendation for which products pair best together, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our esthetician.
Know someone who loves a little extra glow? Our Whish Beauty CC Body Cream is made to keep your skin glowing even in the winter months. It’s formulated to help improve the appearance of dark spots and imperfections (hello, even skin tone). The CC cream can be used solo for more luminous skin or can be applied on top of a self tanner for a little extra shimmer!
Want to take self care beyond the face? Our seasonal hand and foot masks by Patchology are where it’s at! Made with nourishing ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, and macadamia oil, these masks are perfect for the cold winter season as they help relieve chapped hands and feet. This makes a great gift for someone who works with their hands a lot as it will give them a little relief from the weather and hard work.
Gift Ideas for Lip Care
Finally, the perfect package for those who love to keep up with their lip care routine. Wait, you mean there’s an entire routine just for your lips?! Oh course there is! 😉
Our lip lovers can start off with one of our THREE Whish Beauty lip scrubs to gently exfoliate the lips and get rid of any dead skin. (Lips are so prone to this cold winter weather)
Follow up the exfoliation by applying some Patchology lip gels to soothe and lock in moisture. We recommend using these lip gels before a long night of applying lipstick to help create a smooth base & give you a beautiful lip throughout the entire night.
Last but not least, give him/her the gift of lip hydration with either our Jane Iredale Lip Balm or Patchology Lip Service. We’re not lying when we say our men love Lip Service just as much as our women. We recommend using the lip balm during the day as it adds a layer of SPF 15 sunscreen, and using the Lip Service at night to allow your lips a full night's rest to lock in the hydration.
Gift Ideas for the Makeup Lover
For the beauty lover in your life, a makeup gift set is the perfect ticket item this holiday season. Whether you’re shopping for someone who applies a quick layer of foundation and walks out the door or someone who loves getting creative with new products and colors - these gifts will put a smile on their face.
Starting with our favorite, the limited edition Dazzle and Shine eyeshadow kit by Jane Iredale is an 8-shade palette with rich, highly pigmented color for versatile looks that are perfect for the holiday season. We love Jane Iredale for so many reasons but this product in specific is made with a moisturizing formula to soothe your skin and minimize fine lines (always a bonus when applying eye makeup)! Available for purchase at the salon.
Another great combination by Jane Iredale, the BeautyPrep face cleanser & the Lash Extender and Conditioner. The face cleanser is formulated with antioxidants and vitamins to help remove dirt and impurities without drying out the skin. Bonus** It helps prepare the skin so makeup goes on smoother and lasts longer - a win, win.
Pair the cleanser with Jane Iredale’s Lash Extender to strengthen, lengthen and thicken your eyelashes, making mascara twice as effective. These two products go great hand in hand, especially for those who keep their makeup routine simple!
Last but not least, the Dazzle and Shine Magic Mitt. Gone are the days of makeup wipes (am I right, ladies?!). Trade the wipes in for this mitt to remove makeup and cleanse the skin using ONLY water. Don’t forget to follow it up with your regular skincare routine.
We’re making it even easier on you. Skip the wrapping and throw all (or a few) of these products in the Dazzle & Shine cosmetic bag to make it look that much better under the tree. You’re welcome!
Gifts for Sunscreen Lovers
This might be our favorite bundle yet! You guys know how much we love our sunscreen.😉
First things first, your lips are prone to sunburns and need sun protection too! Jane Iredale’s LipDrink lip balm is formulated to provide SPF 15 sunscreen for your lips throughout the day. A few more pros: it comes in multiple colors, uses a variety of waxes and oils for antioxidant-rich protection, AND is recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation as an effective broad spectrum sunscreen.
You CANNOT go wrong with this purchase - it’s an easy stocking stuffer or add-on to any gift throughout this guide.
Next up, sun protection for those who also want some tinted makeup throughout the day. Try our PowderMe SPF 30 Dry Sunscreen by Jane Iredale. This product is a lightweight, broad-spectrum sunscreen for the face, body and scalp that also provides some light coverage. This product is perfect for summertime or someone who finds themselves outside a lot as it’s water/sweat resistant for up to 40-minutes. For the perfect duo, pair this with an item from our makeup lover’s guide - ask our team for recommendations.
For more coverage to protect your skin from the sun on a daily basis, lookout for our Rhonda Allison SPF or Jane Iredale Skin Quenching Hand Drink. Rhonda Allison Daytime Defense SPF 30 is formulated with zinc oxide to provide a natural sun barrier. It’s the perfect sunscreen to apply first thing in the day prior to putting on any makeup.
Jane Iredale’s Hand Drink makes a great gift for someone who spends a lot of time outdoors or in the car. It’s formulated with SPF 15 broad spectrum sunscreen and leaves your hands with a hint of lemongrass. Bonus** it won’t leave your hands feeling cakey or oily.
Our Favorite Skincare Tools
Last but not least, our favorite skincare tools to have in the medicine cabinet at all times. This is perfect for those who already have a shelf full of products, but might want to add some new tools to their daily routine.
We’ve touched on a few of these already -- like our mask applicator brush. However, there’s a handful of additional items here you won't want to miss.
If you’re not familiar with our Foreo face cleansing devices, you might be missing out. To be honest, we’re not sure how we ever washed our face without this little slice of heaven. The Foreo is an ultrasoft skin care cleansing device that uses T-Sonic pulsations to provide a much deeper clean than washing your face by hand. It’s proven to remove up to 99% of impurities in the skin & makes your daily skincare routine that much better.
Our UFO Smart Mask Device is like the Rolls Royce of at-home skincare. This is the world's first smart mask treatment that combines skincare tech with a selection of Korean mask formulas for a facial treatment you can enjoy in the comfort of your own home. This is the perfect gift for someone you really want to spoil this holiday season. For suggestions on which mask formulas to pair with this UFO Smart Mask, please reach out to our esthetician!
Top off any skincare routine by ice-rolling your face! You might have heard us talk about the benefits of ice-rolling in the past... it’s a new(ish) skincare technique that gives you almost instant results. Cold-rolling helps with skin de-puffing, tightening and brightening your skin. We have a few different ice rollers available for purchase - this is another great stocking stuffer or easy add-on to another gift.
