There’s no denying that any gift given out of love feels remarkable, but sometimes you want to treat your loved ones to something that extra-bit special. Particularly after this tough year, it can be nice to pamper those around you with luxury items because, after all, they’re worth it.


If you’re looking for a more high-end gift this Christmas, look no further than Liberty Belle’s guide to designer beauty products. This list will still also include some more affordable products. Whilst the brands featured do often feature high price points, luxury does not have to be out of reach on a student budget. Keep reading for a selection of gifts that will make your loved one’s Christmas, chosen from the best products that money can buy.


Price Range: Under £50


  1. Burberry ‘Nail Polish’ (£17) (Found on Burberry)

A reliable nail polish should be a staple in everyone’s beauty drawer, and Burberry’s offering of classic shades can compliment any outfit this festive season. Colour options include ‘English Rose’, ‘Military Red’, and ‘Poppy Black’, but we recommend ‘Oxblood’ for a suitably festive gift.
