FRESH FACE
Keep your skin looking its best—despite the running around, late nights, one too many a drink, many too many bites of dessert, brewing family drama and all-around holiday stress. Avène Gentle Purifying Scrub uses nonabrasive beads and a beta hydroxy acid to gently—the key here is gently—exfoliate, purify pores and eliminate impurities, leaving you with a brighter, clearer and smoother complexion. Now, if only it could do something about your in-laws.

JUST A TWIRL IN THE WORLD
What do you give the little girl who has everything? Why, a fabulous (read: faaaaab-u-lous) tutu, of course. Watch your little Spinderella dance the day away in a well-made and oh-so-stunning flouncy-flouncy. It’ll give her hours of princess play in her own magical fairyland of fun.

SCENT OF A MAN
The way to a woman’s heart might just be through her nose, if The Art of Shaving’s Sandalwood Eau de Toilette is in the air. The exotic scent, a mix of custom-blend sandalwood and pure essential oils, is brought to life when it’s warmed by the skin, releasing sweetly spicy and slightly woody notes that sing calm, cool and oh so sexy.
