The girl who’s never without a lip combo in her purse deserves the Hydra Beauty Micro Sérum Lèvres, made with hydrating hyaluronic acid and antioxidant-packed white camellia flower extract for soft, smooth lips. The thin formula is never gloopy or sticky, either. “I keep a tube on my nightstand for easy access before bed, but it’s also been known to make an appearance in my vegetable drawer,” says Allure features director Dianna Singh. “The cold of the fridge makes it even more refreshing to apply.”
Le Lift Pro Crème Volume
This luxe Chanel Le Lift Pro Crème Volume first won us over back in 2023, when we gave it an Allure Best of Beauty Award. Since then, we continue to be impressed by its super-soothing formula. Le Lift Pro Créme Volume is made with melipona enzymatic honey sourced from Costa Rica, which can reduce inflammation, and Centella asiatica (commonly known as cica), which calms redness. Add glycerin and shea butter, and you’ve got a deeply hydrating, restorative moisturizer that feels like a treat to apply. Bonus for those with sensitive skin: It’s fragrance-free.
Sublimage Le Masque

Sublimage Le Masque
From Chanel’s Sublimage line, the Le Masque Ultimate Mask contains fine-line-smoothing vanilla planifolia extract, plus moisture-locking ceramides, jojoba seed oil, and shea butter. These lipids are biomimetic (meaning they’re modeled after the natural ones in your skin barrier), so they’re particularly good for dry, irritated skin. As they use the mask over time—twice a week for at least 10 minutes is the sweet spot—they’ll notice their skin tone and texture look more even. This face mask comes in clever packaging, too: The jar is refillable, and the insert can be taken out, making the mask easier to pack in a carry-on or makeup bag.
Our Favorite Chanel Fragrance Gifts
Coco Mademoiselle Eau de Parfum
Chanel
Coco Mademoiselle Eau de Parfum
Coco Mademoiselle has long been one of our favorite perfumes for its light, fresh scent that’s easy to layer and never overpowering. With notes of orange, jasmine, rose, and patchouli, it’s equal parts fruity and floral (in other words, it’s a crowdpleaser). If they’re not into a spritz, it’s also available in a silky body oil that’ll complete any “everything shower” routine.
Bleu de Chanel Eau de Toilette

Even the pickiest guy can’t resist this time-tested scent, with notes of cedar, sandalwood, musk, and grapefruit. Warm, smoky, and citrusy, it’ll win over any hard-to-shop-for Valentines.

Sublimage L’Extrait Huile Lévres Ultimate Lip Oil
Chanel
Sublimage L’Extrait Huile Lévres Ultimate Lip Oil
Yes, this lip oil is pricey—but well worth it. Hear us out: The Sublimage L’Extrait Huile Lèvres Ultimate Lip Oil is an overnight treatment made with lip-plumping peptides and the same vanilla planifolia extract as Le Masque (also from the Sublimage line). Together, these ingredients maximize skin’s natural repair process (which kicks in while you sleep) to boost volume and target texture. On the outside, we’re big fans of the sleek packaging and precise, cooling metal applicator. It’s a gift your recipient might not otherwise treat themselves to and one they’ll use every day (the best combo, if you ask us).
