Skincare can be costly, and holiday gift sets are a great way to try new products or stock up on old favourites.\u00a0 If you are planning on picking one up, they are generally a good value.\u00a0 You do have to think about if you will use each item in the gift set though.<\/p>\n
Sol de Janiero Wild Extravaganza Set<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Sol](\"https:\/\/divine.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Sol-de-Janeiro.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
What it contains:<\/strong><\/p>\n– 8.1 oz\/ 240 mL Brazilian Bum Bum Cream<\/p>\n
– 3 oz\/ 90 mL Brazilian Crush Hair & Body Fragrance Mist<\/p>\n
– 3 oz\/ 90 mL Brazilian 4 Play Moisturizing Shower Cream-Gel<\/p>\n
– 0.21 oz\/ 6.2 g Brazilian Kiss Cupua\u00e7u Lip Butter<\/p>\n
The Price: $81.00<\/p>\n
The Value: $121.00<\/p>\n
DIVINE Value Check: The value is $121.00<\/p>\n
You really need to love the fragrance \u2013 it\u2019s pistachio and salted caramel \u2013 which does smell great, but some people find the cream on its own overpowering.\u00a0 This is a good value, and if you are giving it as a gift, you can break it up. Keep the body cream for yourself though – it helps with dry legs in the winter.\u00a0 If you want to save even more, Sephora\u2019s Beauty Insider Event usually happens in November.\u00a0 Patient shoppers that can wait until after the holidays may find it at a deeper discount then.\u00a0 It may sell out, but that\u2019s part of the fun of being a strategic shopper.<\/p>\n

The Price: $95.00<\/p>\n
The Value: Not provided<\/p>\n
DIVINE Value Check: The value is $134.00<\/p>\n
This is a good value and Tatcha skin care is a winner.\u00a0 Skin care is personal, because everyone has different complexion issues, but if you have dry, sensitive skin, this works.\u00a0 Tatcha products tend to sell out, and they sell out for a reason. You may find it at the Beauty Insiders Sale but don\u2019t bet on being able to scoop this up post-holiday.<\/p>\n
The Ordinary \u2013 The Daily Set<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Holiday](\"https:\/\/divine.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/The-Ordinary-Daily-Set.jpg\")

The Price: $19.00<\/p>\n
The Value: $20.50<\/p>\n
DIVINE Value Check: The value is $20.50<\/p>\n
You may balk at the fact that you are only saving $1.50, but The Ordinary is an affordable line already.\u00a0 Our advice?\u00a0 If you love these products, pick up this gift set, otherwise wait until the Beauty Insiders Sale and customize your own holiday gift set at a deeper discount.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
What it contains:<\/p>\n
– 4 x 0.18 oz\/ 5.5 mL Mini Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizers in Cake Shake, Baby Brut, Taffy Tea$e, Ruby Milk<\/p>\n
The Price: $48.00<\/p>\n
The Value: Not provided.<\/p>\n
DIVINE Value Check: Cost per ml for a full size Fenty Gloss Bomb = $2.77.\u00a0 Cost per ml for the mini = $2.18.\u00a0 You are saving by purchasing the Mini Gloss Bomb Set.<\/p>\n
If you love Gloss Bomb, then, this is a good deal.\u00a0 The formula is quite sheer so even the deepest colours aren\u2019t scary.\u00a0 It\u2019s a very good product and you can break up this set and give the glosses out individually.\u00a0 Last year\u2019s gift set went on a deeper discount after the holidays, so you may want to wait for this one at least until the \u00a0Beauty Insiders Sale.<\/p>\n
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Face Palette \u2013 Sculpture<\/a><\/h3>\n![\"Holiday](\"https:\/\/divine.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Hourglass-Palette.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
What it contains:<\/strong><\/p>\n– 6 x 0.04\/ 1.4 g Shades in Vibrant Flush (bright coral pink), Natural Bronze Light (neutral bronze), Glistening Strobe Light (pearlescent champagne), Dim Light (neutral beige), Diffused Light (warm pale yellow), Mood Exposure (soft plum)<\/p>\n
The Price: $105.00<\/p>\n
The Value: Not provided.<\/p>\n
DIVINE Value Check: This was a bit more complicated to figure out.\u00a0 The products, in ounces, were the same size as the Hourglass Minis, but the grams were off.\u00a0 Our best guess is $194.00.<\/p>\n
From our research this works best for fair to medium skin tones. Three of the shades are exclusive to the palette, but two are repeats from last year. Hourglass makes great products and doesn’t skimp on quality with the holiday palettes, but this is a nix if you have last year’s palette.\u00a0 You don’t have to miss out on a great formula though.\u00a0 \u00a0Hourglass makes minis that are great for stocking stuffers and is a great place to start if you are interested in the brand.<\/p>\n

– 0.12 oz\/ 3.5 g Blush<\/p>\n
– 0.23 oz\/ 7 mL Melted Matte Liquid Lipstick<\/p>\n
– Cinnamon Bear makeup bag<\/p>\n
The Price: $49.00<\/p>\n
The Value: $154.00<\/p>\n
DIVINE Value Check: This is a head scratcher.\u00a0 It is hard to put a value on this gift set because it is a limited edition, but we are going to try.\u00a0 A mini eyeshadow palette in a tin is $36.00 compared to cardboard packaging, but we\u2019ll give the same value anyway.\u00a0 A comparable Melted Matte Lipstick is $29.00.\u00a0 The blush, if you are comparing it to a Too Faced Blush is $4.44 per gram.\u00a0 At 3.5 grams, the value, at most is $15.55.\u00a0 That means the cosmetic bag is valued at $73.45.\u00a0 There is either a mistake on the website or this is being overvalued.<\/p>\n
This is cute \u2013 there is no doubt about it and it is supposed to smell like Cinnamon Bears.\u00a0 \u00a0 Perhaps the quantity is very limited, which means it will sell out before the holidays or it will be on sale after the holidays.\u00a0 \u00a0Nix this and buy the new Pumpkin Spice palette for $10 more or gamble and wait for the sale on this.<\/p>\n

The Value: Not provided.<\/p>\n
DIVINE Value Check: This was a bit more complicated to figure out.\u00a0 The products, in ounces, were the same size as the Hourglass Minis, but the grams were off.\u00a0 Our best guess is $194.00.<\/p>\n
From our research this works best for fair to medium skin tones. Three of the shades are exclusive to the palette, but two are repeats from last year. Hourglass makes great products and doesn’t skimp on quality with the holiday palettes, but this is a nix if you have last year’s palette.\u00a0 You don’t have to miss out on a great formula though.\u00a0 \u00a0Hourglass makes minis that are great for stocking stuffers and is a great place to start if you are interested in the brand.<\/p>\n
Too Faced Cinnamon Bear Set<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n
What it contains:<\/strong><\/p>\n– 8 x 0.02 oz\/ 0.8 g Eyeshadows in Cereal Milk, Slow Burn, Sweet n\u2018 Spicy, Chocolate Dipped, Cinnamon Sugar, Red Hots, Pop of Chill, Bear Hug<\/p>\n
– 0.12 oz\/ 3.5 g Blush<\/p>\n
– 0.23 oz\/ 7 mL Melted Matte Liquid Lipstick<\/p>\n
– Cinnamon Bear makeup bag<\/p>\n
The Price: $49.00<\/p>\n
The Value: $154.00<\/p>\n
DIVINE Value Check: This is a head scratcher.\u00a0 It is hard to put a value on this gift set because it is a limited edition, but we are going to try.\u00a0 A mini eyeshadow palette in a tin is $36.00 compared to cardboard packaging, but we\u2019ll give the same value anyway.\u00a0 A comparable Melted Matte Lipstick is $29.00.\u00a0 The blush, if you are comparing it to a Too Faced Blush is $4.44 per gram.\u00a0 At 3.5 grams, the value, at most is $15.55.\u00a0 That means the cosmetic bag is valued at $73.45.\u00a0 There is either a mistake on the website or this is being overvalued.<\/p>\n
This is cute \u2013 there is no doubt about it and it is supposed to smell like Cinnamon Bears.\u00a0 \u00a0 Perhaps the quantity is very limited, which means it will sell out before the holidays or it will be on sale after the holidays.\u00a0 \u00a0Nix this and buy the new Pumpkin Spice palette for $10 more or gamble and wait for the sale on this.<\/p>\n
