It’s simply the most wonderful time of the year here at LUX. Holiday season is the best of the best for a beauty junkie; with exclusive releases from our favourite lines and multiple occasions to get glammed-up for - what could be better?!
As we get swept up in the magic of the season, the practical inner voice reminds us that in order to make the most of December, we’d best take stock, quite literally, of all that LUXmas entails.
Enter Monica, head-purchaser extraordinaire, to share all of our holiday exclusives.
How do you decide what to bring in?
“All of it?! Hahaha. We take a look at what the best sellers are that we already stock or new products that they might be bringing in for Holiday and expand our collections. In addition, Jenn and I went to a show in NYC to bring in a few exciting new lines.”
What are you most excited to be introducing to LUX?
“Formulary 55. It is the perfect small and simple hostess gift, stocking stuffer or Secret Santa present while keeping you on budget. The packaging is eye catching and minimalist, and the line itself has a wide range of tantalizing scents that can work for both men and women.”
When’s the best time to shop exclusives?
“Right now! We already have 75% of our holiday stock here with the remainder coming before December and for most of our brands we only are able to order once - meaning if we sell out, it’s gone.”
What are you hoping to find under your tree this year?
"Fingers crossed I'll find the Lalicious set with body balm and the bright and bold Stila lip set. Also the color of the Sarah Happ lip glosses are beautiful! "
Looking for a little more Ho-Ho-Holiday inspiration? We've pulled together three mini gift guides featuring just-for-Christmas treats.
For Your BFF
Spoil the ladies that mean the most to you with scents good enough to eat, silky soft hair and bath time treats. On the top of our list is 'The Whoopie Cream FHF set', Bumble & Bumble Hair Dresser's Oil set, and Lalicious Scrub Tower. Top it off with any of the Stila lipsticks and we promise, she'll be speechless.
For That Last Minute Gift
Last minute gift exchanges, unexpected dinner parties - the reasons to always keep an extra gift on hand are lengthy. These sets are perfect to break up and give as smaller gifts or tuck into stockings on December 24th. Die hard beauty junkies will love the value of the Beauty Blender Kit and the 'Bright and Bold' Stila lip sets, while anyone can use a FarmHouse Fresh Shea Butter trio and Bumble & Bumble Thickening collection.
For The Ones You Love
Last, but certainly not least, are gifts you'll have a hard time giving away. The Caudalie Mask Trio, Lalicious Glow-On-The-Go, and Formulary 55 bath tablets are so lovely you may just want to pick up seconds for yourself.
