The ultimate guide to Valentine’s Day beauty gifts 2026
From luxury fragrance to pretty lipsticks
Whether you're piecing together your personal Valentine’s Day wishlist or indulging in some well-deserved self-care this winter, look no further than this curated edit of the industry's most aesthetically pleasing and luxurious beauty gifts. From Dior's coveted, romantic Addict Rosy Glow scent (which has already stolen the hearts of perfume lovers and beauty editors alike) to Chanel's '90s-inspired Rouge Noir collection, February has already delivered a host of Valentine’s Day-worthy beauty launches, while also reminding us to revisit the cult classics we've loved for a lifetime.
"I'm here to reframe Valentine's Day as a day to remind yourself to just give yourself a little treat, in whatever shape or form," says beauty editor Medina Azaldin. "It really doesn't matter what your relationship status is. Whether you're buying yourself a gift, sending your significant other a wishlist or treating a friend to something nice, Valentine's Day gifting shouldn't feel pressured or laboured. Something that elevates the everyday is always a good idea; think hair perfumes, a fancy lip balm or a nice tortoishell comb."

Whether you're shopping for yourself or a lucky loved one, there's no doubt that the modern beautysphere can be overwhelming when it comes to gift giving. If you're struggling to whittle these opulent gifts down to one, consider the crowd-pleasers first. A popular fragrance with an adoring, poetic name or glamorous, light-catching bottle will undoubtedly take pride of place in any giftee's vanity. For those who adore a playful make-up moment, try for a flattering shade of pink lipstick or blush. Alternatively, for the beauty minimalist or the person who has everything, a cosy winter candle will make the ultimate statement to suit all.

Lively, bright and full of character, this eye-catching bottle houses one of 2026's most coveted scents. Picture Damascus rose petals and zesty lychee, scattered over creamy accords of caramel and dulce de leche.
You'll be hard-pressed to find a decade of beauty more highly esteemed than the '90s, so it’s no surprise that this versatile palette—inspired by Chanel’s iconic Rouge Noir shade of the era—has skyrocketed to the top of our wishlists.
As useful as it is delightful on the eye, this hydrating lip balm comes in an array of shades, delivering a veil of pH-adaptive, plumping colour to flatter all skin tones and types. Not to mention, it feels richly moisturising and so luxurious.
This little bottle of luxury is the ultimate Valentine's Day beauty gesture. The name itself is the epitome of romance. Meanwhile, orange blossom, jasmine, honey and vanilla absolute is like a bouquet of flowers and gourmand sweet treat all in one.
This delicate cheek colour not only delivers a flattering, luminous faux flush, but will also have any giftee blushing for real. Available in six refreshing shades, it adds a glossy pop of colour to the skin while looking (and feeling) like a true beauty luxury.
If there's one product we find ourselves replacing more than any other, it’s mascara—so why not take the opportunity to restock your loved one’s collection with a dramatic set of fluttery lashes. This new launch from Lancôme has quickly become a favourite among beauty editors, thanks to its striking curl and rich black pigment.
Not only will this classic bouquet of rose, geranium and orange extend the romance of timeless florals throughout their home, but this generous three-wick candle will also burn for weeks to come. Think of it as a traditional bunch of flowers, designed to last far beyond lover’s season.
Valentine's Day is the perfect time to top up on a beloved beauty favourite, and you’ll struggle to find a product more classic or more adored than La Mer Crème de la Mer. Infused with the brand's famous Miracle Broth complex, consider this a hydrating, skin-glazing facial in a jar.
A Diptyque candle is among the most giftable beauty items the industry has to offer; in short, it looks effortlessly chic in any room of the house. This reimagined favourite delivers all the elegance of the classic Roses scent, finished with a modern design of painterly branches and romantic red ribbons.
If you’re looking to surprise a young relative (or an eccentric adult) with a bold fragrance this Valentine's Day, look to Rabanne's latest iteration of its lively Fame scent. Infused with the spirit of the season and added notes of strawberry extract, it perfectly embodies the vibrant joy of Cupid, roses and love.
