5 Glamorous Gifts BAZAAR’s Beauty Director Is Giving This Holiday Season

Not sure what to gift that person on your list who already has it all? Looking for something indulgent yet still feels personal? Don’t fret, Harper’s BAZAAR beauty director Jenna Rosenstein has you covered.

From a next-level skincare savior to a high-tech hair styler, she’s sharing her top five luxe holiday gift picks below. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you—you’re definitely going to want to gift these to yourself, too.

1. Guerlain Abeille Royale Advanced Youth Watery Oil

“This watery facial oil is so unique, and the texture is unlike anything else I’ve tried,” Rosenstein says about Guerlain’s newly reformulated Abeille Royale Advanced Youth Watery Oil. “It’s lightweight, so it doesn’t leave skin feeling slick or shiny, and it adds the perfect amount of glow and moisture.”

The formula itself is unique in that, as noted, it’s a watery oil; Lighter than a facial oil and a serum, and somewhat similar to an essence, though it claims to provide the benefits of all three. It’s made up of 95 percent naturally-derived ingredients, including nourishing royal jelly and a blend of four different types of honey, all of which are sustainably sourced. Texture-wise, micro-encapsulated droplets of commiphora oil—an ingredient that’s extracted from the myrrh tree and has well-documented skin-healing benefits—dissolve on contact.

An added bonus: According to Rosenstein, it also smells “like heaven,” which she says makes it “the perfect gift for anyone because it’s impossible not to love.”

2. Dyson Airwrap Complete Styler

This high-tech hair styler is designed (re: literally engineered) to do it all—it can dry, curl, style, smooth, and straighten strands, depending on which attachment you click into place. And it comes with many of them, including two different-sized curling barrels, three hair brushes (two flat, one round), and a hairdryer.

“It dries and styles hair at the same time with less heat and damage than a traditional dryer, flat iron, and curling iron,” explains Rosenstein, who calls it a genius invention. “All of the attachments deliver consistent heat across the entire hair fiber.”

The end result, once you get the hang of using it, is “voluminous, bouncy, shiny, healthy-looking hair every single time,” she says.

3. NuFACE Trinity

Professional microcurrent facials are nothing new, and they’re known for delivering actual, visible results—namely, helping lift and tone the cheeks and jawline.

The NuFACE Trinity skincare device claims to bring the same microcurrent benefits into the comfort of your own home (or rather, your own hands). And according to Rosenstein, it doesn’t disappoint.

“It stimulates your facial muscles to help lift and tone, so you look like you get a professional facial after every use,” she says. “Do half of your face and then take a picture—you’ll be shocked at the results.”

To use it, first apply the included primer onto clean skin—and don’t skip (or skimp on) this step. Otherwise, you’ll feel the tiny shocks of the electrical current, and it also won’t work correctly (think of it kind of like an ultrasound). Once the area of your face you plan to treat is covered in a layer of primer, power on the device and glide it along your skin slowly in an upward motion. You can use it on your cheeks, neck, jawline, forehead, and eyebrows.

4. Daily Harvest Subscription

“I love gifts that are the perfect blend of thoughtful and useful,” Rosenstein says, explaining that this meal subscription service is exactly that. “I want my gift to make a difference in that person’s life.”

Though it’s ideal for that person on your list who is always on the go, a box full of healthy, fresh food makes for a wonderful gift on anyone’s doorstep. All of the options, from smoothies to grain bowls, are meant to be convenient (i.e., quick and easy to make), nutritious, and, of course, super tasty.

“Having a healthy, delicious breakfast already prepped for busy mornings is such a life-saver,” Rosenstein says. “I don’t know what I would have done without my Daily Harvest subscription the last two years.”

5. Eberjey Pajama Set


Pajamas are always a tried-and-true holiday gift, so what makes this pair so unique?

According to Rosenstein, that would be a combination of its luxe-feeling yet breathable fabric, ideal fit, and variety of tasteful patterns.

“My mom and I are both obsessed with Eberjey pajamas,” she says. “The quality is unmatched, and they’re just so soft and chic!”
