Forget gold, frankincense and myrrh, the only gifts we're lusting after this year are beauty related. 

Actually, on second thought, given the historic usage of both frankincense and myrrh in perfumery, we reckon the baby Jesus was actually onto something. 

There's no denying the pure excitement of receiving one standout showstopper present, but what truly makes our hearts sing come the 25th is the thrill of finding a beauty gift or two hidden within the depths of our stocking.

What is the purpose of the holiday season if not for getting all glammed up and then indulging in our skincare routines to take the post-party edge off.

Miniature versions of cult classics, must-have shimmery shades and the like would be extremely well-received if they were lying under our tree come Christmas morning. (Hint, hint). 

How we chose:

  • Gift-worthy: Giving (or indeed receiving) the gift of festive glamour this Christmas has never been easier since there are so many excellent products to choose from this season. All our selections have been carefully selected by Hello! Fashion's resident beauty obsessive Aaliyah Harry, spanning from makeup and skincare to nails and fragrance - and are practically guaranteed to go down a treat with your lucky recipient. 
  • Price: Whether you're planning on splashing out or bagging a bargain, we've got a stocking filler in your price range. We've selected this season's best beauty gifts, with prices starting at £12.00.

Hello! Fashion shares the best stocking fillers for beauty obsessives:

  • Best Beauty Stocking Fillers

    Charlotte Tilbury
    Charlotte Tilbury

    Hypnotising Pop Shots

    Charlotte Tilbury

    Darlings, Charlotte Tilbury's one swipe eyeshadows will make your eyes dazzle and pop this festive season. My go-to shade Sunlit Diamond is a warm gold and is always in my makeup bag. This multi-chrome pearl eyeshadow reflects the light for a colour-shifting kaleidoscopic effect. It's very pigmented and brings such a radiant shine to party glam.The stocking-appropriate mini size is perfect for topping up glitter while on the go. 

  • P-TIOX

    Skinceuticals

    P-TIOX is SkinCeuticals latest innovation, an  advanced peptide anti-wrinkle serum for your skin. If you could get smooth skin without the botox needles, wouldn’t you? That’s what SkinCeuticals’ promises: smooth skin without any syringes. At 30ml, this is the perfect stocking filler this Christmas.

  • Saie super gel

    Mini Glowy Super Gel Duo

    Saie

    If you want that enviable lit-from-within glow, look no further than Saie's Glowy Super Gel. Now in a mini duo, this fluid-gel texture serum melts into the skin and diffuses effortlessly for a dreamy dewy gleam. A true multitasker, it works well alone as a primer underneath make up, or mixed with complexion staples like foundation for a luminous touch. I use mine probably every day throughout each season, and my skin is always left with a li-from-within glow. 

  • Koba lip balm

    Feeling Myself Lip Balm

    Koba

    As the weather gets cooler, it's essential to have a handy balm to keep your lips hydrated. Look no further than Koba's Feeling Myself Lip Balm. This luxurious, multi-tasking balm intensely nourishes and softens to keep lips smooth, plump and vibrant with a subtle shimmer.

    I find myself reaching for this product during the winter, especially because of its gentle exfoliator that removes dead skin and repairs very dry and damaged lips. What's the scent? Think zesty and woody notes. 

  • Carolina Herera

    Good Girl Eau de Parfum

    Carolina Herrera

    If you want the perfect luxe fragrance to gift a friend, look no further than Carolina Herrera's Good Girl. It's a daring, yet sophisticated ambery floral fragrance. With one spritz you get the delicious top notes of almond, the middle notes lean into florals with Jasmine Sambac and Tuberose Chrystal. Finally at the base, as it dries down the warmth comes through from Tonka Bean and Cocoa. For a stocking-approved-size grab the 30ml. 

  • drowsy sleep mask

    Silk Sleep Mask

    Drowsy Sleep Co

    This luxurious padded silk mask not only enhances your sleep but also your skin. I've been wearing mine for months and it's transformed my sleep. I used to get restless,  struggled to fall asleep and couldn't put my mind at ease. However, the blackout feature provides the ultimate escape. It not only blocks out light but it pillows your eyes with the purest, padded silk. 

  • naturium

    The Glowing Body Kit

    Naturium

    Naturium's Glowing Body Kit is everything you love about the body and skincare brand but in teeny tiny stocking-approved helpings. If you want radiant skin, trust me get your hands on this kit. 

    The must-have kit includes 100ml and 75ml sizes of beloved products, the Glow Getter Multi-Oil Hydrating Body Wash and Bio-Lipid Restoring Body Lotion.

    I use both products religiously. The body wash lathers wonderfully in the shower and dissolves dirt, oil and impurities to leave skin nourished and glowing. The Body Lotion is a silky and non-greasy  and delivers instant hydration to my skin. 

  • Fenty beauty fragrance

    Fenty Eau de Parfum

    Fenty Beauty

    It's been rumored for years that Rhianna smells divine. With this fragrance, you can replicate her enviable scent. Ever since I got my hands on this fragrance, its been my go-to. It's a warm, sensual scent that’s truly one-of-a-kind. Magnolia, musk, tangerine + Bulgarian rose lingers through each spritz. And the luxurious curved bottle made of amber brown glass and touches of gold will ensure it sits at the front of your perfume collection. Purchase the fragrance in the mini 30ml size for a perfect stocking gift.

  • dr david jack

  • Coco Chanel

    COCO Eau de Parfum

    Chanel

    The delicious notes of Chanel's COCO Eau de Parfum will be sure to put a smile on anyones face. This opulent fragrance has a unique blend of contrasting notes.

    The purfume opens with a citrus note of Sicilian Mandarin, and reveals a voluptuous heart of Jasmine Absolute, heightened with touches of Ylang-Ylang from the Comoros and Tunisian Orange Blossom. A captivating harmony that leaves behind a vibrant trail of Indonesian Patchouli, Tonka note and Benzoin.

    It is one of my go-to fragrances for a special occasions and now you can gift it to a loved one this festive season. 

  • NARS

    NARS Cosmetics

    Who doesn't love a multi-use palette? NARS' limited holiday-edition palette features five multi-use powders for radiant eyes and cheeks. This compact product is housed in a sculptural gold case and is perfect to fit into your bag for the festive season. I find myself reaching for it on nights out. 

    These Light Reflecting powders come in soft bronze, rich champagne and pink shades, creating a luminous wash of color for highlighting, sculpting, and blushing.

    Lid Lustre in 'Velvet'

    If you love a flash of shimmer on the eyes, you need give Victoria Beckham Beauty's single-pot eyeshadows a whirl this Christmas. Super pigmented and a breeze to apply (pack it on with your ring finger and build accordingly), I'm devoted to 'Velvet', a gorgeous, dirty gold.

  • Lisa Eldridge Beauty True Velvet Lip Colour

    True Velvet Lip Colour

    Lisa Eldridge Beauty

    The 25th is incomplete without a standout red hue - I don't make the rules. I personally favour creamy, stay-all-day formulas and so, this year I'm hoping to receive 'Velvet Ribbon', a rich, pillar box red by Lisa Eldridge, housed in elegant gold casing.

  • Chanel Le Vernis Gold Nail Polish

    Le Vernis

    Chanel

    Pay tribute to one of the Wise Men's original gifts with a twinkly gold mani. Reformulated this year, Chanel's 'Le Vernis' polish is infused with camellia eco-ceramides for maximum nourishment and I adore the celestial warmth of 'Phénix'.
