Holiday Gift Ideas For Beauty Lovers — As Seen on Denver7’s “Mile High Living”
Thanksgiving is next week, which means the holiday shopping season has officially commenced! To help you find the perfect gift for the beauty lovers in your life, I (virtually) visited Denver7’s “Mile High Living” show with some great suggestions. You might just be tempted to pick something up for yourself while you’re at it! Check out the segment above (or click here) and keep reading for more detailed info on the gifts showcased on air.
Olay Super Serum and Micro Sculpting Cream
The holiday season is absolutely magical, but it can also be quite stressful: we’re hosting family members for extended periods of time, juggling office parties and after-work events, cooking elaborate meals, buying and wrapping gifts, sending holiday cards, checking out light festivals with the family, and attending holiday concerts and plays at our kiddos’ schools. Our hectic schedules (and the stress that comes along with them!) can adversely affect our skin, leading to breakouts, redness and inflammation, dullness and puffiness (particularly when lack of sleep is involved!), and more. Luckily, you can mitigate the effects of holiday stress on your complexion and feel your absolute best by picking up the best-selling OLAY Super Serum and Micro-Sculpting Cream.
Boasting an enchanting purple iridescent color, Olay’s Super Serum offers the benefits of 5 different serums in 1 powerful formula, helping to improve skin texture, even skin tone, smooth fine lines, firm skin, and provide long-lasting hydration. Typically priced at $35 at major retailers, it’s currently on sale for just $29.99.
The iconic Olay Micro-Sculpting Cream, meanwhile, visibly lifts and hydrates skin while strengthening the skin’s moisture barrier. One jar is sold every 12 seconds, which speaks to its efficiency and how highly it’s regarded by customers! Normally priced at $28, it’s currently on sale for $24.99.
Thanks to Olay’s holiday sales, you can pick up both of these products for just $55 at retailers such as Olay.com, ULTA, Target, Walmart, and drugstores. And that’s not all! With Olay’s Up Late Rebate, you can earn $10 back when you spend $30 or more on OLAY products at any retailer — that means you can pick both products up for $55 and earn $10 back on your purchase!

HPPY Skin Refresh Mask
Many skincare products are primarily comprised of water — in fact, it can sometimes account for over 90% of a product’s formula. Well, HPPY Skin set out to change the status quo and create highly effective products rife with fresh active ingredients – no unnecessary water or filler. H
PPY Skin is the first and only brand to use a patented high-pressure processing technology called HPP that safely preserves fresh nutrients without the need to use heat or chemicals. This translates into potent and undiluted formulas teeming with fresh ingredients that are more bioavailable and hence more effective.
To treat your loved ones to a spa-like experience at home, gift them the HPPY Skin Refresh Mask, which contains organic cucumber, coffee berries, spirulina and hyaluronic acid to combat dull and dry winter skin. This GOOP-approved, refrigerated face mask helps to hydrate, smooth, plump, and brighten the complexion. It’s the ultimate way to keep skin nourished and bouncy even when the weather outside is frightful!
Each mask is $16 on HPPYskin.com or you can pick up a set of 5 for $56.
Katari Beauty Discovery Kit
Katari Beauty is a Denver-based, clean skincare brand rooted in time-honored Mediterranean beauty traditions. Katari sources ingredients directly from the Mediterranean to create minimally processed, gentle, single-ingredient treasures.
Katari Beauty’s Discovery Kit incorporates everything you need to achieve clear and balanced skin. At the heart of the kit is Katari’s Hoba Oil, a 100% cold pressed jojoba that can be used to cleanse, purify, balance, and hydrate skin. Another highlight it the Argil Mediterranean Green Clay Facial Masque, which features detoxifying Argil clay sourced from Africa’s Atlas Mountains. This lovely clay mask will draw out dirt an impurities while also softening skin and boosting circulation (thanks to the clay’s natural mineral content). At nighttime, you can complete your skincare routine with Katari’s Rosehip Oil, which s known as a gentler alternative to retinol and is housed in a hand-blown, heart-shaped glass bottle.
In addition to these skincare treasures, the kit includes a sustainably harvested Sea Sponge, and an artisan-made Hand Blown Glass Mixing Bowl and Hand Carved Olive Wood Mixing Spatula.
