The Ultimate Luxury Gift Guide
When it comes to shopping for gifts, it can be hard not to spend all your time looking at the presents you’d buy yourself. Hey, we all do it—it’s important to have an active fantasy life. And in our imaginations, money is no object—which is why we can’t get enough of the truly extravagant, gloriously expensive luxury gifts of the season. So whether you have money burning a hole in your pocket and an appreciation for the finer things or you’re daydreaming about what you’ll buy when you strike it rich, consider this your ultimate luxury gift guide.
Tom Ford Lips & Boys 50 Piece Set ($1,950, Tom Ford)
Is it possible that there could be something better than unwrapping a case of 50 Tom Ford lipsticks? We don’t think so. This set contains every single shade in the celebrated Lips & Boys line (each named after a hot man, including the shade of the moment, Drake) spanning the rainbow from perfect reds to shimmery violets. With the signature TF staying power, rich color and gorgeous packaging, you should seriously start dropping hints about this to any rich cartoon ducks you may know.
SU Easel Brush Set ($445, Sephora)
If you’re not looking to mess around and pick up your brushes piecemeal, this 27-piece professional quality brush set from Sephora is what you want. Not to sound too much like Stefon, but this set has everything—from perfect powder brushes to an array of eye makeup brushes so varied and majestic it will make you weep. Though this set isn’t exactly cheap, it’s definitely good value; buying each of these brushes separately would cost well over six hundred bucks.
Christian Louboutin Beaute Rouge Louboutin Starlight ($675, Neiman Marcus)
If you have money to burn, seven Benjamins is totally reasonable to spend on a single bottle of nail polish, right? In which case, this is definitely the bottle you want to buy. Louboutin’s signature red varnish is packaged in a glorious hand-cut glass bottle and bedecked with 1500 crystals. The red-lined case is decorated with gorgeous red and black leather flowers so you won’t even have to wrap it—so you’ll save the $3 on a gift bag, thank goodness.
If you’ve always dreamed of being as fancy as the Hollywood stars who practically bathe in La Mer, here’s your chance. This kit contains their famous Creme de le Mer moisturizer, serum, eye concentrate and treatment lotion, all in an actually cute pewter bag. If you’ve been looking to try out what celebs assure us is the secret to their flawless complexions—or gift Madonna’s skin to your nearest and dearest, but not in a creepy way—this is a sweet way to go about it.
Fragrance can be a difficult thing to buy for other people, so hedge your bets with a stunning bottle that doubles as an objet d’art. First, let’s be honest: you’re paying for the packaging here, but what stunning packaging it is. Covered in gorgeous Swarovski crystals, it’s as gorgeous to look at as it is to smell—the richness of rose and musk make this a unique fragrance for a unique person…who had better love pink.More from Daily Makeover: Beauty Gifts So Pretty, They Don’t Need Wrapping
