7 beauty gift sets for Italy fans
Beauty sets are popular as gifts: beautifully packaged and filled with a variety of products. In the shop, we have various products from brands that produce exclusively in Italy.
You may sometimes be faced with the agonising question: What should I get this person? What can they use that looks nice and is reasonably priced? A gift set is already beautifully packaged and usually contains several different products, so there's something for everyone. If you have Italy fans in your circle of friends and acquaintances, it's worth taking a look at our beauty sets, which are 100 per cent made in Bella Italia.
I present seven of these gift sets here.
Citrus fruits packaged for Christmas
The design of the packaging for the "Colonia Futura" gift set from Acqua di Parma is enough to get you in the Christmas spirit: The festive box was designed by Chinese artist Oamul. It contains a 100-millilitre eau de cologne, a 75-millilitre hair and shower gel and a 50-millilitre deodorant spray. According to Acqua di Parma, everything combines the scent of Italian citrus fruits with aromatic and woody notes. The eau de cologne consists of 99 per cent natural ingredients. The formula of the shower gel is designed to refresh, cleanse and leave skin feeling soft.

Giorgio Armani gift set for men
The packaging of the gift set for men from Giorgio Armani is kept simple in blue and white. Inside are three beauty products in equally simple black packaging: an eau de parfum of 50 millilitres, a shampoo that can also be used for the body and an after-shave balm, both of which contain 75 millilitres.
Pretty in pink with Versace
For lovers of the colour pink, this gift set from Versace might be an option: the "Bright Crystal Gift Set" contains an eau de toilette (30 millilitres) and a body lotion (50 millilitres). The bright colour is complemented by golden ornamentation.
All gift ideas lead to Rome
Fans of the designer Laura Biagiotti love the perfume "Roma". "Hardly any other women's perfume is so fine and delicate, full of feminine elegance and sensual romance," reads the product description. With this creation, the Italian wants to remind us of her home city of Rome. Even the bottle is designed in the shape of a Roman statue. Top notes of the fragrance are redcurrant, mint and grapefruit. Heart notes of the perfume are jasmine, carnation and rose. Sandalwood, oakmoss and myrrh are also included. The beauty gift set includes a body lotion and an eau de toilette.
Christmas set from Collistar
This set was developed by Collistar specifically as a Christmas gift, albeit last year. In addition to a body lotion and a body scrub, it also includes a matching cosmetic bag in dusky pink.
Colourful set from Moschino
The recipient is a fan of the luxury brand Moschino? The box of the "Cheap&Chic" gift set has an unusual design with cheerful dancing people and the large inscription "Love". It contains a 30-millilitre eau de toilette and a 50-millilitre body lotion.
A house full of gifts
The gift set from Bionike also stands out with its special packaging: the reusable tin can is designed in the style of a villa. It contains various cosmetics from the "Defense my Age" range: a day cream (50 millilitres), a renewing serum (30 millilitres) and one for eyes and lips (15 millilitres). According to Bionike, the "Defence my Age" products have been specially developed for the needs of women during and after the menopause. They are designed to improve the skin's resistance.
