For fans of Estée Lauder, you can get a full size Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex in this gift set for $78.
That’s only $3 more than the stand-alone price for which you get a trial size eye cream and a travel size Global Anti-Aging Power Crème with moringa extract.
A quality Christmas gift for Mom or anyone looking for an anti-aging skincare routine.

The Littles set is a genuine sample of the best of Drunk Elephant (although T.L.C. Sukari Babyfacial and A-Passioni are missing).
It’s a nice introduction to the brand but keep in the mind the sizes are very small (literally “The Littles”).
