The latest launches from the brands you love
Kama Ayurveda Kumkumadi Revitalising Facial Oil
£135.00
Adding oil to your nighttime routine is something of a non-negotiable (especially in winter). The Indian brand’s formula has a high concentration of Himalayan saffron, which is rich in antioxidants and vitamins A, B and C. Expect bright, post-facial skin by the morning.
Maison Francis Kurkdjian Mon Beau Sapin Candle
£285.00
If you’re hosting Christmas or know someone who takes scent seriously, ‘My Beautiful Fir Tree’ is the candle you need. Limited edition and exclusive to John Lewis, the scent evokes snowy wood walks and cosy fires – plus the festive packaging is stunning.
Trinny London Total Transformation Gift Set
£99.00
Containing five of the brand’s bestsellers (and Trinny’s favourites) for a complete routine that’s suitable for all skin types, this skincare set is the perfect gift for someone who loves the award-winning brand – or is yet to try it. Plus the silver travel bag is so handy.
L'OCCITANE Hand Cream Trio Collection Gift Set
£24.00
The perfect pampering gift, this set features three of the Provence-born brand’s most-loved hand creams – Almond, Cherry Blossom and the iconic Shea Butter. Moisture-locking, high-quality and natural, they are a real treat for you and your senses.
ELEMIS Day & Night Wonder Duo Skincare Gift Set
£145.00
ELEMIS is not exaggerating when it describes its festive skincare set as a ‘wonder duo’. The iconic Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF 30 is a daily hydrating hero, while applying the rich and nourishing Pro-Collagen Night Cream will be the highlight of your evening.
myBlend Revitalizing Rich Cream
£220.00
New to John Lewis, the revolutionary Parisian brand’s moisturiser is enriched with peptides complex 4P and hyaluronic acids to replump, protect and strengthen the skin. High price point? Yes. But it is proven (not promised) to reduce all signs of ageing in a matter of weeks. Really.
Stocking-filler inspiration
Our annual Christmas beauty crackers need no introduction. The Party Ready Cracker kicks things off with makeup and skincare from NARS and MAC, while The After Party Cracker is full of nourishing skincare from the likes of Shiseido, Medik8 and ELEMIS.
