Welcome to LovelySkin.com.
When it comes to showing the people in your life they’re loved on Valentine’s Day, LovelySkin knows a few things about gifts they’ll love! A luxurious skin care splurge or pampering bath product can go a long way to show your significant other, parent or best friend how much you appreciate them. Whether you’re wondering what to get Mom for Valentine’s Day or need a little something to surprise your besties at your annual Galentine’s Day celebration, we’ve got plenty of ideas to please everyone on your gift list. Ready to get gifting? Check out some of our ideas for:
Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to splurge on a high-end skin care gift for your girlfriend or wife, and this starter kit from British brand Augustinus Bader—a noted celebrity favorite—definitely fits the bill. It contains travel-sized versions of The Cream Cleansing Gel, The Essence facial exfoliator, The Rich Cream anti-aging moisturizer and The Face Oil. All four products are tucked into a brilliant blue mesh bag with copper details that matches Augustinus Bader’s signature color scheme. This set is a good fit for dry skin. For a lighter option, you’ll want to go with The Cream Starter Kit.
Your sweetheart will be truly impressed when she opens this kit from skin care favorite SkinCeuticals. It contains three of the brand's top-selling anti-aging formulas: SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic Antioxidant Serum, SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Interrupter Advanced and SkinCeuticals Resveratrol BE. These antioxidant-rich formulas work in tandem to help brighten skin tone, improve firmness and prevent future photoaging.
Fragrance is a traditional Valentine’s Day gift, and this nature-inspired cologne from the grooming gurus at Baxter of California will surely be well-received. Inspired by the forested canyons of California, this fragrance features a base of sandalwood and red cedar and top notes of nutmeg and apple peel. Another scent option is Valley Mist, which features top notes of lemon, bergamot and ocean mist and a base of Cypress trees, driftwood and musk.
Spoil your sweetie with a new shaving regimen from The Art of Shaving. This four-piece kit comes in two fragrance options—sandalwood and unscented—and features a pre-shave oil, shaving cream, aftershave balm and a soft-bristled shaving brush to work up a rich lather for a close shave.
Cooling menthol and micro-capsules of marine extracts and jojoba oil elevate this shave gel from an everyday necessity to a luxurious grooming gift. “This is a personal favorite of mine when it comes to shave gels,” says board-certified dermatologist and LovelySkin CEO Dr. Joel Schlessinger. “It helps reduce irritation, so you can achieve a smooth, close shave with less chance of razor burn or ingrown hairs.”
This cute cucumber-themed set from Eminence Organics makes a great Valentine’s Day gift for your daughter if she has combination or acne-prone skin. Tucked inside a white woven bag with a bamboo zipper pull, you’ll find four clarifying face products made with organic ingredients such as cucumber juice, tea tree oil and yogurt-derived lactic acid: the Eminence Organics Clear Skin Probiotic Cleanser, Clear Skin Probiotic Masque, Clear Skin Probiotic Moisturizer and Clear Skin Willow Bark Booster Serum. These products work just as well on adult skin as they would for a tween daughter who is just getting into skin care.
A lipstick with a lustrous formula and trendy color is just the right Valentine’s Day gift for your daughter. We’re big fans of this lipstick from jane iredale, which softens and nourishes lips with ingredients such as cocoa butter and sunflower seed oil. It’s highly pigmented with a satin finish and comes in color choices such as Tutu (a barely there ballet pink), Espresso (deep, warm brown) and Candy Apple (a bright, bold red).
Looking for just the right Valentine’s Day gift for your skin care-obsessed sister? This duo from Dr. Schlessinger’s own line, LovelySkin LUXE, helps target visible signs of aging, so she can put her best face forward. LovelySkin LUXE Exfoliating Gel Mild contains 11% afaLUXE, a dermatologist-developed ingredient that exfoliates gently and effectively to improve skin texture and reduce acne breakouts. A complementary product, LovelySkin LUXE VITA-CE with Ferulic Acid is an antioxidant facial serum with vitamins E and C, ferulic acid and peptides to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles as well as dark spots and uneven skin tone.
The makeup maven in your life will appreciate this line of long-lasting primers that come in four different formulas with multitasking skin benefits. The Blurring Primer minimizes the look of pores, moisturizes skin with ceramides and dries to a soft-focus, velvety finish. The Hydrating Primer has hyaluronic acid to help balance dehydrated skin and leave it looking dewy and fresh. The Illuminating Primer helps fade discoloration over time with vitamin C and provides a radiant finish thanks to reflective minerals. Last but not least, the Mattifying Primer works best for combination or oily skin to help reduce shine and maintain a matte finish throughout the day.
When it comes to Valentine’s Day gifts for your mom, we love the idea of giving an indulgent bath product she might not splurge on for herself. This bath and shower oil helps smooth and soften skin with a blend of nourishing ingredients, including sweet almond oil, grapeseed oil, olive oil and moringa seed oil. It has a floral, citrus-forward scent thanks to bergamot, jasmine, mandarin peel oil and neroli flower oil.
Mom’s makeup cabinet deserves a refresh for Valentine’s Day this year. This kit features Laura Geller’s trademark marbleized pigments, which are swirled together and baked for 24 hours to create a blendable, buildable final product. Along with a mirrored palette with five eyeshadow shades, there’s also a lipstick and solid blush stick in neutral pink-leaning hues.
Perfect for travel or trying something new, this shaving kit is sure to please as a Valentine’s Day gift for your dad. It comes with a shaving brush to help exfoliate and lift hair for a closer, cleaner shave, plus all the products he’ll need from start to finish: The Art of Shaving Pre-Shave Oil, Shaving Cream and After-Shave Balm, the latter of which doubles as a daily moisturizer.
Sore muscles and joints will meet their match with this body oil, making it a wonderful Valentine’s Day gift for dads. Every ingredient in this formula has a purpose, from the maritime pine leaf oil to help improve circulation to rosemary extract to help ease sore muscles.
Whether you and your bestie work together, travel together or binge your favorite TV shows together, this adorable body care set is just the right fit for a Valentine’s Day gift for friends. Each duo features a sugar-based body scrub with coconut and sweet almond oils as well as a rich body butter that helps moisturize skin with shea butter and aloe. With a variety of scents ranging from Birthday Cake to Sugar Lavender to Brown Sugar Vanilla, you’ll be sure to find just the right fit for everyone in your friend group.
Give your best bud an excuse to unwind by surprising them with these fragrant bath bombs for Valentine’s Day. Each box contains three fizzy spheres that will infuse bathtime with a soothing aromatherapy effect thanks to muscle-easing Epsom salt and calming lavender sourced from Bulgaria. They’re also the perfect size to use for a relaxing foot soak as well.
After a long school day and seemingly endless handwashing, there’s no better Valentine’s Day gift for your teacher than a skin-saving hand cream. This formula from Epionce helps nourish skin with omega fatty acids, meadowfoam seed oil and avocado oil. It absorbs quickly and comes in a slim tube that easily tucks into a desk drawer or handbag.
If you want your Valentine’s gift for teachers to stand out on a desk full of bouquets and candy, give this beautiful soap from sea-inspired brand PHYTOMER. Marine algae give this body soap its turquoise hue and exfoliating powers while glycerin provides ample hydration.
A six-pack of these multipurpose medicated balms—developed by Dr. Schlessinger and his son Dr. Daniel Schlessinger—in both unflavored and vanilla versions is a useful Valentine’s Day gift for anyone in your life. Perfect for the dry winter months, FixMySkin helps repair chapped lips with 1% hydrocortisone, shea butter, cocoa butter and meadowfoam oil. It also can be used elsewhere on the body to help soothe itching and irritation from skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis, rashes or insect bites.
If you’re looking for a splurge-worthy Valentine’s Day gift for a loved one this year, the NuFACE Trinity could be just the ticket. This microcurrent skin care device helps tone the muscles in the face for a more sculpted, firmer look. With consistent use, it helps improve the appearance of signs of aging such as sagging skin, fine lines and wrinkles. This kit includes everything your valentine will need to get started with the NuFACE Trinity, including a wireless charging cradle and treatment gels.
Help your Valentine up the ante on their skin care routine with this face-cleansing device. It features a silicone brush head and sonic technology that vibrates in four different modes to help achieve a super-deep cleanse. It comes in a variety of color combinations, so you can pick just the right one: berry or pink with rose gold, black with gunmetal, navy with gold or teal with brushed aluminum.
