Although Easter is typically reserved for chocolate, skincare, haircare and make-up brands are edging their way into the market, with beauty-themed seasonal treats. Think egg-shaped tins stocked with mascaras, gift boxes housing hand lotions and bath bombs crafted into the forms of cute Easter characters.
So, if you aren’t a fan of sugary treats, or you’re shopping for a beauty buff, these cosmetics-stuffed eggs could be the Easter gifts to go for – Lookfantastic, Rituals, Glossybox and more have a whole host of options to choose from.
The Lookfantastic beauty egg is so popular, in fact, it’s sold out seven years in a row. So, if these eggciting (sorry, we had to) cosmetics treats take your fancy, it’s probably best to move fast – it’s not like we need much of an excuse to treat ourselves to a new beauty buy.
Keep scrolling to find out which Easter-themed finds have caught our eye. Spoiler alert: we’ll be revealing what’s inside each egg, so perhaps only skim through if you’d like to keep the contents a surprise.
