2020 Beautycounter Holiday Collection Review – These festive gift sets include clean makeup, amazing skincare, & luxurious self care items!
Hello HOLIDAY!!! Oh my gosh – I am SO excited to introduce the Beautycounter Holiday Collection for 2020 today! It has officially launched today on Beautycounter.com! Be sure to follow along (over on IG is the easiest) to get the latest updates on all things Holiday 2020! So in honor of the highly anticipated holiday launch, I wanted to showcase & review all of the sets so you all can start making your lists ASAP! And remember, the sooner you shop the better, because since everything below is limited edition, they will sell out!
So let’s get into it!
The Beautycounter Holiday Collection this year is focused upon “Gifts For The Love Of“…
Clean Makeup…Sparkling finishes, safer formulas, & responsibly sourced ingredients – oh my!
Great Skin…The secret to a fresh face (& peace of mind)? Skin-care sets made with safer ingredients!
Self-Care…When you can’t gift more hours in the day, these self-care presents are “me-time” wrapped in a bow!
Here’s what’s exciting…this year, Beautycounter’s festive, limited edition makeup, skin-care, & self-care sets can be enjoyed by EVERYONE, but what’s most important is the fact that these gifts put people & the planet first – AND help lead the movement towards the ultimate gift – a safer future for all!
The idea of becoming a “conscious consumer” has really been gaining momentum over the past year or so. If a conscious consumer is a new term for you, it’s basically the idea of putting your money somewhere it matters. Somewhere that is able to make a difference or initiate change. When you shop with a company like Beautycounter, who is a certified B-Corporation, you can rest assured that your hard earned dollar is a vote towards change, a vote towards safer ingredients, a vote towards responsibly sourced ingredients, & a vote towards a better tomorrow!
That’s what I love about Beautycounter & my job as a consultant…it’s about the big picture…it’s about making the world safer for us & for future generations, it’s about making sure our shimmery eyeshadows or lipsticks don’t come as a result of forced child labor, it’s about sustainable packaging & the plans to offset our carbon footprint, it’s about the 1,800+ ingredients that have been banned from our formulas, it’s about fragrance transparency, & heavy metal testing…
I could go on & on!
So keep in mind this holiday season when it comes time to picking out gifts for yourself or for your loved ones that this mission is BIGGER than just beauty or beautiful products. And when you shop Beautycounter, that’s what your dollar is going towards. Every dollar spent is a vote towards change. I couldn’t think of a better way to be a “conscious consumer”, can you?
As you can tell, I’m sure you can see the love I have for the advocacy part of this job, BUT I know you’re here to see the INCREDIBLE holiday collection – featuring a total of 16 gift sets, 11 new formulas, 21 new shades, & 2 new tools! Below I’m detailing the group of sets that I got from this year’s holiday collection & I’ve included photos of each one so you can really get a good feel for everything, including shades! If you do have any questions regarding anything below, please feel free to leave a comment below, shoot me a DM over on Instagram, OR send me an email at rowanmadi@gmail.com – I’d love to assist you in any way I can!
Beautycounter Holiday 2020 Collection!

Gifts For The Love Of Clean Makeup…
Luminous Lids Cream Shadows
This gorgeous set of four shimmering cream shadows is STUNNING, especially for the holiday season! The beautiful shimmer found within these shadows is a result of responsibly sourced mica…new to mica transparency? Check out this short 12 minute documentary! The Luminous Lids Cream Shadow shades include Soft Gold, Onyx, Amber, & Amethyst!
Winter Warmth Duo
The Winter Warmth Duo includes two products, a Sunlit Highlighting Powder in a weightless talc-free formula, which can be used to give the skin a beautiful & healthy glow, while the silky Cream Eyeshadow in shade Sunstone can be used to illuminate the lids! Both of these shades are SO pretty & are ideal if you’re looking for an effortless winter glow!
Beyond Gloss Trio
If you haven’t tried our new Beyond Glosses, you need too! They are SO good! This Beyond Gloss Trio includes three full-sized, limited edition lip glosses in our new Beyond Gloss formula in a limited edition, sweet mandarin violet scent! OMG, do these smell incredible!!! These three shades are perfect for the holiday season, with an pearlescent shade (Iris Shimmer), a shimmery lilac shade (Lilac Shimmer), & a bright holiday sheer shade (Wild Berry) – all stunning & wear so beautifully!
Golden Hour All-In-One Palette
This is a must for any makeup lover! Not only is the packaging & shades absolutley beautiful, but there is also a slide out mirror which is great for on the go looks! This Golden Hour Palette includes an illuminating highlighter, a warm blush, & four gleaming eyeshadow shades! All talc-free too! I can’t wait to play around with this palette, it’s one of my favorite holiday sets this year! And what’s even better?! 10% of proceeds, from every purchase of this palette, will be donated to the Kailash Sayarti Foundation, which is a foundation dedicated to eradicating child labor & child exploitation in all forms!
The Jellies – Brights & Shimmers
Okay, the Jellies are SO fun & are available in two sets: the Shimmers & the Brights! These are back again for another year, because they were SO popular in 2019! They’re perfect for any age! Great idea for stocking stuffers, super cute to pair with a gift card or mug, put inside an ornament, etc! And WOW do they smell AMAZING! The Shimmers scents include Cocoa, Caramel, Peppermint, Sorbet, & Honey! And the Bright Scents include Orange Cream, Raspberry, Sweet Plum, Fresh Mint, & Red Pear!
Gifts For The Love Of Great Skin…
Countertime Radiant Skin Set
If you’re looking for a clean, anti-aging, & effective skincare product, this set is going to be for you! The Countertime Radiant Skin Set includes our immensely popular Countertime Tripeptide Radiance Serum & a new facial tool called the Turn Back Time Facial Roller! This facial roller is going to help boost the benefits of our plant-derived Retinatural Complex found within the serum & create a true spa-like experience! I personally love facial massage & rolling, so I’m really excited about this roller! And it’s stunning right?!
Bright Side Duo
Calling all skincare lovers! This set is for you! Seriously, everyone can reap the incredible radiance benefits of this Bright Side Duo. This set includes two of our best selling products – the All Bright C Serum & the Overnight Resurfacing Peel, which also happens to be my favorite Beautycounter product! These two products work & complement each other beautifully…the C Serum works during the day to brighten & protect & the Overnight Resurfacing Peel, works at night to repair the skin! Each bottle in this amazing holiday set contains 0.5 fl oz of product, making it a half-sized version of the full size (1.0 fl oz) for reference! This holiday set is currently sold out, but you can still purchase the full size C Serum here & the Overnight Resurfacing Peel here!
Polish & Protect Lip Duo
If you experience dry or cracked lips during the winter, you’re going to be obsessed with this Polish & Protect Lip Duo! The Lip Polish gently buffs with super fine sugar granules & the Better Balm helps protect & smooth the lips while also helping to reduce fine lines around the lip & mouth area! The Polish has the most refreshing peppermint scent, I seriously wanted to lick it off of my lips! And I love how innovative the balm is due to it’s ability to reduce fine lines! I think that’s so cool!
Special Edition Cleansing Balm
Our Special Edition HUGE Cleansing Balm is always a holiday favorite, especially because of the limited edition size! I actually am just about to finish my very first Cleansing Balm jar! This product last FOREVER, especially because you only need a tiny amount! The Cleansing Balm melts into your skin to hydrate while it cleanses, removing makeup, & other impurities but never strips away moisture! It can be used in a variety of ways too!
Gifts For The Love of Self-Care…
Ultimate Renewal Bath Set
This Ultimate Renewal Bath Set is another favorite of mine from the amazing holiday 2020 collection! Can you get over this dry brush?! I’m obsessed with dry brushing – you can read about the benefits of dry brushing here & I’m so excited that I now have a beautiful Beautycounter dry brush! This set also includes an AMAZING non-greasy, Luminous Hydration Body Oil which will help target any dry, winter skin with incredible botanical oils, a delicate rosewater scent, while also giving a luminous sheen to help smooth out your skin! Applying an oil after you dry brush too is the ultimate self-care, rejuvenating experience! Last but not least, this set also includes a Sugarbuff Body Polish in our signature Lemongrass scent. This body polish is a new & improved formula consisting of finely-milled sugar which helps to gently exfoliate, leaving the skin soft, hydrated, & with a healthy-looking glow!
Good Glow Body Duo
This gorgeous Good Glow Body Duo contains the same amazing Sugarbuff Body Polish that I just chatted about above, so I’ll focus on the Body Glow Illuminating Lotion! This new lotion offers lightweight hydration & a stunning, radiant glow thanks to the responsibly sourced mica that I mentioned earlier! The lotion, which has a refreshing citrus chamomile scent, is the prettiest pink shimmery color when pumped out! The pink color fades when rubbed into the skin, leaving behind a natural-looking sheen!
The Clean Deo Minis
The Clean Deo Minis are going to go quick – why? Because Beautycounter’s deodorant is AMAZING! I’ve been using it since May, so I have LOTS to share! Be sure to check out my full Clean Deo review! All I can say is that not only are these absolutely adorable, but the scents are amazing, & the formula REALLY WORKS! 10/10 for me – I’m obsessed!
Softening Hand Duo
The Softening Hand Duo set consists of two gorgeous frosted glass bottles of softening hand wash & hand lotion! Trust me when I say this set will look gorgeous on any bathroom or kitchen counter! In a fresh neroli scent, this duo cleans hands without over-drying & provides fast-absorbing hydration for soft, pampered skin! Did I mention that the bottles are BEYOND gorgeous?!
Good Scents Body Butter Trio
I LOVE Beautycounter’s Body Butters – I’m still enjoying one of mine from the 2019 holiday collection! These ultra-hydrating body butters help to smooth & protect skin, while their amazing aromatherapeutic scents are designed to calm, uplift, & balance! With key ingredients like sunflower seed oil & shea butter, these butters help to condition & hydrate the skin, which is perfect for when the cold weather rolls around!
Good Scents Hand Cream Trio
Like the Body Butter Trio, the Hand Cream Trio is back this year in those amazing aromatherapeutic scents I mentioned above – calm, uplift, & balance! These hand creams are lightweight, but still ultra-hydrating thanks to ingredients like shea butter & jojoba oil! These hand creams are a great gift option because you can keep one for yourself, pair them with a body butter, stick one in a cute mug, use as a stocking stuffer, etc! So many good gifting options!
Counterman Fresh Essentials
Because all of our guys need some Beautycounter holiday love too!! This amazing Counterman Fresh Essentials set includes three full size Counterman products – a purifying shampoo, an energizing charcoal body wash, & a men’s Clean Deo!! Woohoo! Like I mentioned, the women’s Clean Deo is AMAZING, so I’m sure the men’s is just as good! The limited edition Counterman deodorant comes in a Crisp Sequoia scent!
I know it’s still early, but ’tis the season right?! Remember, it’s better to shop sooner rather than later, because since all of these sets are limited edition! THEY WILL SELL OUT! So if you see something you LOVE, snag it while you can!
