11 Beauty Hostess Gift Ideas for Every Summer Occasion

Hosting a summer soirée is a big job, but somebody has to do it, right? That’s why it’s always lovely when guests show their appreciation for their hostess with a thoughtful gift. And if that present also includes pampering her like the queen that she is, all the better. While she’s racing around organizing food, seating, and ambiance to make all her guests feel welcome, give her a gift that’s just for her. Here, we share 11 of our favorite beauty sets.

Outdoor barbecues and beach parties have one important thing in common: SPF. Give your hostess the best tools to stay fresh and sunburn-free with this health-conscious set.

Susanne Kaufmann Flight Kit

Jet-setting for a weekend getaway is the quintessential summer retreat. But your hostess doesn’t want to stuff her bag with tons of toiletries. Instead, give her a set that addresses all her beauty needs while on the go.

Kopari Slip Into Summer Set

Sunny beach parties are an excellent way to spend a weekend, but they can wreak havoc on your hostess’ skin.

This Works Dream Big Set

A good night’s sleep is the best gift you can give to any busy hostess. After a whole night of planning and partying, she can drift off to dreamland regardless of whether all the post-party cleaning is complete.

Clinique Treats To Go Set in Punch

Your friend will always appreciate it when you bring a little something for her when she opens up her home, even if it’s a casual backyard barbecue. This compact set may be small, but it contains some luxe beauty products that are just right for summer.

Georgette Klinger Three Piece Skin Care Kit

Weekends by the shore are all the more relaxing when your hostess has some indulgent skincare in her arsenal. This travel set has an argan oil cleansing gel, a bamboo exfoliating scrub, and a gentle phytic exfoliating toner for the best summer skin she’s ever had.
