I’ve scoured the world and discovered some fabulous finds. Read on to discover why three out of three wise men (and women) will love these holiday surprises:
A highbrow affair — Piret Aava is her name — and A-list celebrity eyebrows are her game. With locations in Manhattan — and Port Chester — Piret is your “go-to-gal” for the ultimate in wow brows. She’s called the Eyebrow Doctor, and she offers microblading gift certificates for the gal (or guy) in your life whose brows have become pretty scarce. The result is oh-so-natural, and you will love how naturally they accent your eyes. $2,000 in New York City; $1,200 in Port Chester. Eyebrowdoctor.com.
“I wonder as I wander” — When you deplane, are the bags under your eyes as big as your luggage? Say adieu with Wander Beauty’s Baggage Claim Rose Gold Eye Masks. These teeny treats for your eyes feature rose gold to allow their serums to penetrate your skin more deeply, while cellulose fibers deliver hyaluronic acid. These will make your bon voyage even better. (Or just get your favorite the $49 Airplane Mode skincare kit of five mini multitaskers that are totally ready for takeoff. Set of six masks, $25. Wanderbeauty.com.
Everything’s coming up roses. Dazzle the ones you love with the lavish Lennox Grand Luxury Box of 36 perfectly arranged and naturally preserved real roses ready to display the moment you open the box. These roses are treated with a plant-based formula that preserves their beauty for three years without water or maintenance. It’s the perfect combination of beauty and worry-free luxury that makes an ideal gift for the flower lover in your life. $410. Eternalroses.com.
Wave goodbye — How about a holiday gift for the hair product lover in your life? Whether the hair is wavy, curly or as coily as St. Nick’s beard, RevAir makes this the most WAND-erful time of the year. The RevAir Reverse-Air Dryer is the ultimate gift for people who want soft, sleek hair without straighteners that singe or the recurring expense of keratin treatments. The Wand is where the magic (and science) go to work, drying and straightening hair in a single hassle-free step, yet three times faster and with less than half the heat of traditional methods. $429 for the device and accessory bundle. Myrevair.com.
French-kissed surprise — Inspired by Les Treize Desserts (The Thirteen Desserts) holiday tradition in Provence, this inimitable advent calendar provides 13 days of beauty surprises featuring mini sizes and deluxe samples of Bastide’s best-selling, plant-focused products. Made in France by haute hair stylist Frederic Fekkai and his wife, Shirin von Wulffen, the sampler offers the earthy Figue Amour fragrance in a travel-ready size; perfume samples; mini sizes of body wash; and much more. $140. Bastide.com.
The road trip to gorgeous — Leave it to the savvy folks at Benefit Cosmetics to come up with a clever-as-can-be mini metal camper so you can be as beautiful as you want on the go. “Road Trip To Gorgeous,” in the little purple trailer, features a powder-pink blusher; BADGal mascara; 24-hour brow setter; and a Pore Professional silky soft-radiance booster to minimize the look of pores. I give it an A+ for Absolutely Adorable. $50. Benefitcosmetics.com.
Perfect polo — As seen on TV’s “Shark Tank,” Baobab shirts (named after the tree of life in Africa) are designed to be the best polo shirt on the market. Made with luxury pima cotton and collars that will never curl up, the polos have a special nanotechnology to ward off stains, wrinkles and odors and were designed by entrepreneurs as everyday work attire. Short-sleeved versions are $95. The perfect gift for the man in your life. Baobabclothing.com.
