Since all of that can be a lot to parse through, we’ve perused the selections to spotlight the must-gift items that will be on everyone’s wish list. From Chanel to Westman Atelier, our below guide contains only the most giftable luxury beauty gems from Violet Grey.
DashDividers_1_500x100Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream, $290
Best For: Skin-Care Snobs
Augustinus Bader (named after the Augustinus Bader, professor and head of stem cell research at the University of Leipzig)’s products have skyrocketed to cult status in the past few years. While his namesake brand now offers a range of products for body and hair, The Rich Cream is still a fan favorite. Described as “an advanced, vegan-friendly cream that creates a healthy, more youthful-looking complexion using groundbreaking stem-cell technology,” the ever-popular and very expensive moisturizer continues to argue the point that you can’t put a price on a good complexion.
U Beauty The Trio Set, $168
Best For: Future Skinfluencers
Editor-fave brand U Beauty not-so-quietly blew up this year, and if you haven’t tried the brand out for yourself, this intro set is one you’ll want on your list. It includes minis of The Resurfacing Compound, The SUPER Hydrator, and Plasma Lip Compound to hydrate and renew your skin.
Le Labo Santal 26 Classic Candle For Violet Grey, $94
Best For: The Fancy Friend

Ami Colé Lip Treatment Oil, $42
Best For: Low-Maintenance But Make It High-Maintenance
Ami Colé is one of those “IYKYK” brands, and if there was one product that’s a former best-kept-secret, it’s this one. Not only does the nourishing lip oil feel as juicy (and non-sticky!) as a luxe gloss, but the kiss of color is perfect for when you don’t want to wear lipstick.
