GIFT GUIDE: BEAUTY ESSENTIALS

The BSTN Holiday Gift Guide for the 2025 season is a hand-picked curation of some of the finest selections and staff-favorites from BSTN’s premium product portfolio. It covers everything from individual ideas to all-time classics for the holidays.


If you’re looking for a holiday gift that lands without guesswork, beauty essentials are a smart place to start. Why? Moisturizers, cleansers, balms – basically anything in the skincare realm – is universally useful. Because let’s face (pun intended) it: even if someone already owns, let’s say, a face cream, they’ll need to restock eventually. And here’s the bonus: Beauty essentials – with the fine exception of scents* – even spare you the trouble of knowing someone’s exact preferences, measurements, or taste.

What makes beauty gifts even more meaningful is the quiet luxury they represent. You may not be able to hand someone extra hours in their day. But you can gift small companions that invite to moments of self-care. And make them feel a little more elevated:

A subtly scented cream by Malin + Goetz that softens the morning rush. A cleanser that turns an everyday task into a small ritual. Or a body cream by Humanrace that encourages taking a breath in between the chaos. Beauty gifts are small gestures with a kind-of emotional return: a reminder to slow down and treat oneself kindly.

And when it comes to *fragrance – a gift that can feel a bit more personal, but might be tricky to pick – the BSTN portfolio makes things pretty straightforward. With a curated selection of time-proven scent classics by Comme des Garçons, Byredo, or Stora Skuggan you can confidently lean on iconic formulas that have earned their evergreen status for a reason. So in case you’re ready to give a little everyday luxury this season, the curated selection by BSTN got you:
