Buying beauty for someone else is a minefield. Get the shade wrong, or the formula, and the gift ends up in a drawer. LiLash takes most of that risk away. The brand has sold its physician-formulated lash serum since 2007, the formula hasn’t changed since, and both of its serums carry a 90-day money-back guarantee. That makes it one of the safer luxury beauty buys you can put under the tree.
The range runs from a US$28 mascara that works as a stocking stuffer to a six-month lash and brow set for the woman who has everything. We’ve picked the five best gifts below. If you’re still shopping for her more widely, our best gifts for her guide has plenty more ideas.
At a Glance
- Her first taste of LiLash: Purified Eyelash Serum
- The devoted LiLash fan: Eyelash Serum XL
- Low-maintenance brows: LiBrow Eyebrow Serum
- The big-ticket gift: LiLash and LiBrow Set
- Stocking stuffers under US$30: Synergy Mascara
1. LiLash Purified Eyelash Serum
This is the product that built the brand. The LiLash Purified Eyelash Serum goes on once a day in a thin line along the upper lash line, much like liquid eyeliner, and takes seconds. LiLash says most people see a difference in two to four weeks, with full results for longer-looking, fuller-looking lashes at eight to 12 weeks.
It’s ophthalmologist-tested and safe for sensitive eyes, contact lens wearers and lash extensions, and the brand reports 98 per cent customer satisfaction. At US$90 for a three-month supply, it’s a luxury gift that doesn’t cross the US$100 mark.
- Price: US$90
- Size: 2 mL (three-month supply)
- Use: Once daily along the upper lash line
- Guarantee: 90-day money-back
2. LiLash Purified Eyelash Serum XL
If she already uses LiLash, don’t give her more of the same small tube. Give her the LiLash Purified Eyelash Serum XL. It’s the same formula in a 4 mL tube that lasts six months, so her daily routine carries well into the new year without a reorder.
At US$150 it’s the better-value buy per millilitre, and a generous gift for anyone already hooked on the results.
- Price: US$150
- Size: 4 mL (six-month supply)
- Formula: Same as the original serum
- Guarantee: 90-day money-back
3. LiBrow Purified Eyebrow Serum
The LiBrow Purified Eyebrow Serum is the brow version, for the woman who wants a polished look without the daily pencil work. It goes on once a day to clean, dry skin for fuller-looking, well-defined brows. LiLash says a visible difference usually shows at four to six weeks, with full results around 12 weeks.
It’s US$90 for three months and carries the same 90-day money-back guarantee. There’s also a six-month XL size at US$150.
- Price: US$90 (XL US$150)
- Size: 3 mL (three-month supply)
- Use: Once daily on clean, dry brows
- Guarantee: 90-day money-back
4. LiLash and LiBrow Set
When the gift needs to feel special, the LiLash and LiBrow Set is the one to buy. It pairs the brand’s two bestsellers, the eyelash serum and the eyebrow serum, as a complete daily routine in two slim tubes.
It also saves you money. The three-month set is US$162, down from US$180, and the six-month set is US$270, down from US$300. For a partner, or a mother who’s impossible to buy for, it’s the standout pick in the range.
- Price: US$162 (three-month) or US$270 (six-month)
- Usual price: US$180 or US$300
- Includes: Eyelash serum and eyebrow serum
- Guarantee: 90-day money-back
5. LiLash Synergy Mascara
New this fall, Synergy Mascara is the cheapest way into the LiLash range and the easiest stocking stuffer on this list. It’s a long-lash defining mascara with a lightweight formula that separates each lash, doesn’t flake and resists smudging for up to 24 hours. It comes off with warm water.
It’s Ulta Clean and Sephora Clean certified, made in the USA, and pairs with the lash serum for a full routine. At US$28 it also works for Secret Santa. For more small gifts, see our best stocking stuffers.
- Price: US$28
- Size: 9.5 mL
- Wear: Up to 24 hours, smudge-resistant
- Certified: Ulta Clean and Sephora Clean
How to Choose the Right LiLash Gift
Start with what she already uses. If she’s never tried a lash serum, the original US$90 eyelash serum is the natural place to begin. If she already swears by it, the six-month XL or the lash and brow set is the upgrade. If you only need a small gift, the US$28 Synergy Mascara does the job.
Timing matters too. LiLash ships free on orders over US$50, and for delivery by the holidays within the continental US, order by 16 December with standard shipping. The serums are all made in the USA, cruelty-free, vegan and paraben-free, and luxury spas including the St. Regis, the Ritz-Carlton and The Setai Miami Beach stock them.
