As much as we'd all probably love to spend hundreds on our closest friends and family over the festive period — particularly after the year we've all had — sadly, it just isn't realistic. But that doesn't mean there isn't an inexpensive and incredible selection of beauty gifts [1] available. In fact, we think some of the best gifts this year are under £25.
To give you a hand this festive season, we searched high and low for some of the best sets this year that won't blow your entire 2021 festive shopping budget. We found beauty gifts for everyone on your list from some of our favourite brands — an Aromatherapy Associates calming bath oil, a Fresh double cleansing duo, and Floral Street candle quartet — you'll be surprised by the vast selection on offer.
Ahead, shop some of our favourite beauty gifts sets for 2021 that are under £25.
