In the spirit of the holidays, I'll let you in on one of my best shopping tips: I firmly believe that a beauty gift set is the perfect way to wow everyone on your list. Not only do the best beauty gift sets offer the most bang for your buck but they often offer a variety of new products for your loved ones to try and subsequently adore. What skincare lover or makeup fan wouldn't want to receive a new fragrance or cult-favorite lip balm wrapped in pretty packaging alongside other must-have beauty products?

However, search for beauty gift sets across the web and you'll quickly come across a dizzying number of options—there are over 800 on Sephora alone. So, to save you time, I pulled together this comprehensive list of Marie Claire's all-time favorite sets. They hail from tried-and-true brands like Rare Beauty, Charlotte Tilbury, Tom Ford, Westman Atelier, Bobbi Brown, and more. These editor-approved sets would each make for any swoon-worthy holiday gift (or a festive gift for any reason, for that matter!). The best part? Many of them are on major sale for Black Friday.
