Everyone has that one friend who's so particular about skin care, they may as well be Kevin McCallister picking out dental products — only their version of the "Is this toothbrush approved by the American Dental Association?" question tends to happen at Sephora.

Rather than leaving them to fend for themselves this holiday season, though, like poor Kev's parents did in Home Alone, why not give them a beauty gift that lives up to the highest of skincare standards . . . without any of the guesswork? From fancy face mask sets to jade rollers galore, ahead we've compiled a comprehensive guide to every skincare product an obsessive would want.

Happy shopping, ya filthy animal.

Best LED Face Mask Skin-Care Gift Set

Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare Light It Up FaceWare Pro LED Device Kit (£434)

The Light It Up FaceWare Pro LED Device Kit comes with a hot pink version of the DRx Spectralite FaceWare Pro as well as eight of the editor-backed retinol peel pads, a full size of the retinol intense wrinkle cream, and a sample of the retinol eye serum.

Aside from the fact that the LED mask will make the user look like a sci-fi movie character (a perk for any Star Wars fans out there!), the underside of the mask contains a total of 100 red LED lights, which help reduce the signs of ageing, and 62 blue LED lights, which help kill the bacteria that can lead to breakouts. It's like gifting a professional facial treatment. Plus, this gift set costs as much as just the DRx Spectralite FaceWare Pro retails for, so you're basically getting the retinol products for free.

Our editor says the gadget is a worthy investment due to its FDA stamp of approval and how the mask fits on the face. "It perfectly conforms to your forehead, cheeks, and chin, and is secured with an adjustable strap behind the head so you can use it just as easily laying down as you can while walking around the house," she says.
