This e.l.f. skincare set is now on sale and it's never too early to start Christmas shopping

If you're the sort of person who promises themselves they'll be organised with Christmas shopping this year, consider this your reminder to get started.

With the festive season approaching, finding presents that feel thoughtful without stretching your budget can be a challenge, but we may have found an ideal present that you can put away for the beauty lover in your life.

It’s the e.l.f.mergency Smooth & Soothe Skincare Set, and the good news for you is it is currently reduced on the e.l.f. Cosmetics UK website from £31 to £25. That's a £6 saving on a three-piece skincare bundle that could make a lovely present for a beauty enthusiast, a skincare devotee or anyone who enjoys a little pampering.

Rather than waiting until December and hoping your gift ideas come together, shopping early gives you the chance to browse offers at your own pace. With this set bringing together three skincare staples, it could be a handy option if you're looking for something practical as well as present-worthy.

First up is the Save Your e.l.f. Hypochlorous Mist, a dermatologist-developed facial mist formulated with hypochlorous acid. It is designed to help soothe and purify stressed, blemish-prone skin while helping to calm and reduce the appearance of visible redness. The ultra-fine mist can be used as a toner or throughout the day, according to the product directions.

The set also includes the Holy Hydration! Barrier Goals Cream, a rich, whipped moisturiser formulated with 1% colloidal oatmeal, cica and hyaluronic acid. It is designed to replenish and hydrate the skin while helping to support its moisture barrier.

Rounding out the bundle is the Mini Holy Hydration! Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm. This solid balm melts into an oil to help remove makeup, making it a useful addition to an evening skincare routine. Its mini format is also convenient for travelling.

Buying beauty products for someone else can sometimes feel like a gamble, particularly if you aren't sure which make-up shades they prefer, and that’s why a skincare set may be the safest option.

The e.l.f.mergency Smooth & Soothe Skincare Set could suit someone who enjoys a simple skincare routine, and the combination of a facial mist, moisturiser and cleansing balm makes the gift more exciting. It could be a great option for a friend, sister, mum, cousin or beauty-loving colleague.

At £25, down from £31, the set offers a saving of £6 compared with the listed original price. That might not sound enormous, but every penny really does count at this time of year.

It is also worth remembering that popular beauty products and gift sets can sell out, and promotions may change before December. If this bundle sounds like the sort of present someone on your list would appreciate, checking the current price and availability now could save you another job later.
