Best Mini Gifts at Sephora This Year

These 30+ Mini Gifts From Sephora Will Bring Big Smiles

As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.

Gifts don't need to be expensive to be good. And, anyway, good things do come in small packages . . . and we're not just talking diamonds. These present ideas from Sephora may be in mini form, but that doesn't make them any less appealing (like a little La Mer face cream, for example). The items are all TSA-approved-for-carry-on small, which means that if your loved ones travel light and are flying back home after the holidays, they'll be aboard with your gift.

Some of these things are cute for stockings, others are sets that are cute for stocking up, and the rest make for a perfect way to let a loved one dabble in something new. There are solo stars that shine alone, like that amethyst face roller, and others who perform better in a pack, like a shampoo-conditioner set.

If you've ever been to a Sephora store, you're most likely familiar with the checkout area lined with small things you never knew you always needed. Consider this list a little of that, too.

Here are 30+ of the best mini items from Sephora that can still get a big grin this holiday season.

You're welcome.

IGK Flight Club Dry Shampoo Travel Set

The first rule of Flight Club . . . is that you definitely share it with your friends. Gift frequent fliers, or infrequent shampooers, the IGK Flight Club Dry Shampoo Travel Set ($28) this season. The lightest option (Jet Lag) has finely milled volcanic ash to refresh a scalp; the style-extending Direct Flight uses turmeric to gently cleanse; and the most powerful — called First Class, naturally — uses charcoal powder for that deep detox.
