The Tease Team Shares Their Holiday Wishlists

12/06/2024

The Tease staff is constantly working with and trying a wide variety of new beauty and hair products. We’re always exposed to so much newness, and as a result, we’ve become hyper aware of what products we like and dislike, as well as which ones earn a spot in our daily routines. With the holidays quickly approaching, we’ve compiled a list of hair and beauty items that we would love to receive this holiday season! Ahead, here’s what The Tease team has on their list.

Jeffrey Lunnen, Editor in Chief at The Tease and Co-Host of The Volume Up Podcast

Tecuane Esperanza Scalp Tonic Refill

“I am in need of some more of my favorite scalp tonic! I love the environmentally conscious packaging so I can top off my already stunning glass bottle.”

Shop: Tecuane Esperanza Scalp Tonic Refill, $46.00

K18 Leave-in Molecular Repair Hair Mask

“I swear by this stuff for my fully bleached look—Can’t get enough! It would be perfect for a stocking stuffer!” 

Shop: K18 Mini Leave-in Molecular Repair Hair Mask, $75.00

R&Co BLEU PROPER MOLDING PASTE

“I have the tiniest bit more hair than my usual and I’m entertaining the idea of going a bit longer. I love the idea of being able to style my hair with a little control and I’m obsessed with R&Co BLEU’s sustainably minded formulations and packaging. This molding paste would be a welcome stocking stuffer.”

Shop: R&Co BLEU PROPER MOLDING PASTE, $27.30

Adriana Sarmiento, Social Media Editor 

Jolie Skin Co. The Filtered Showerhead 

“I’ve been wanting a Jolie shower head forever, but never enough to pull the trigger and buy one for myself. I would love to see what all the hype is about and when it comes to improving skin and hair health!” 

Shop: Jolie Skin Co The Filtered Showerhead, $165.00

Dr Jart+ Jelly Bear Lip Mask 

“You have to keep your lips moisturized during the cold, dry winter months and this packaging is so cute!” 

Shop: Dr Jart+ Jelly Bear Lip Mask, $25.00

XMONDO Garnet Color Depositing Mask 

“This is my favorite color depositing mask! It works so well and comes in the perfect shade for me to refresh my color. Plus, it always leaves my hair feeling super conditioned.” 

Shop: XMONDO Garnet Color Depositing Mask, $29.00

Madeline Hickey, Senior Digital Producer 

Rhode Skin Peptide Lip Tints 

“As basic as it may seem, I LOVE the Rhode Peptide Lip Tints. Not only do they add a bit of color and shine to my lips (especially since I rarely wear lipstick), but they have also saved my chapped lips multiple times already this winter. I especially love the color Ribbon, but any of the colors are a win. Perfect for a stocking stuffer or as a bundle for some extra holiday cheer.”

Shop: Rhode Skin Peptide Lip Tints, $18

DNA Hair Tools Air Styler 

“I have never been a fan of curling my hair. As someone with pin-straight hair, I always found it way too tiring of a task for the curls to never stay. That is until I found the DNA Hair Tools Air Styler. The Air Styler can do both curly and straight looks and never disappoints. I can curl my hair faster than ever and they stay longer than I have ever had curls stay before. I also love that on trips I only have to pack one tool! While they are currently out of stock on their site, if you have a chance to grab one before the holiday, make sure you do!”

Shop: DNA Hair Tools Air Styler

Luseta Beauty Hyaluronic Acid Shampoo and Conditioner 

“I was recently gifted a box of 10 different Luseta Shampoo and Conditioner samples. While all of them were fantastic, none of them worked quite as well as the Hyaluronic Acid Duo. The smell is phenomenal and the hydration my hair felt afterward was unmatched. Not only was I obsessed but my partner said it was his favorite by a landslide. I just recently ran out and I need to stock up. These two were on my wish list this year and I am really hoping I get them under the tree.”

Shop: Luseta Beauty Hyaluronic Acid Shampoo and Conditioner, $18

Camille Nzengung, Features Editor

Sandy Liang Flower Power 2.0 in Ballet Pink 

“I love hair accessories, especially when they’re designed by Sandy Liang. This oversized flower-shaped scrunchie is so ridiculously cute and would be such a fun way to dress up a simple ponytail or bun.”

Shop: Sandy Liang Flower Power 2.0 in Ballet Pink, $118.00

Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro Pink Edition

“These days Korean skincare is about the only thing that I let touch my face. I’ve been dying to try this skin care device for ages because apparently it’s the secret to achieving Korean glass skin. Plus, it is apparently super popular in South Korea—like “number-one-selling skincare-device popular. It’s supposed to help your favorite skincare serums and creams absorb better into your skin and improve your skin’s texture and brightness. And it comes with 4 primary settings that will work wonders on your skin: a booster mode (for electroporation + increase product absorption), microcurrent (for line volumization), Derma Shot mode (for contouring), and Air Shot mode (use electric needling for pore tightening).”

Shop: Medicube AGE-R Booster Pro Pink Edition, $291.14

Kaja Beauty Jelly Charm 

“Ever since my coworker Eileen raved about one of Kaja Beauty’s products in her fall product roundup, I’ve had the brand on my radar. I’ve had my eye on this glazed lip stain and blush in the shade Squeeze Guava for a while now and think it would make such a cute stocking stuffer. Plus, I love that it doubles a cute little bag keychain as I have been very into bag charms lately!”

Shop: Kaja Beauty Jelly Charm, $25.00

Eileen Rodriguez, Editorial Intern

Olivier Midy Essence Midy

“Olivier Midy’s anti-aging resurfacing treatment is such a powerful product. It leaves my skin feeling hydrated and bouncy the moment I apply it, and I’ve seen such a big improvement on my skin since I’ve incorporated an essence in my daily routine. The plant-based solution enhances elasticity and firmness, and since I have really dry skin, I love multi-use products that both exfoliate and hydrate my skin.”

Shop: Olivier Midy Essence Midy, $185.00 

Lelet New York Mixed Metal Double Arch Pony Cuff

“Lelet has tons of gorgeous luxurious hair accessories, but this one is my favorite. I love doing a pony or sleek bun and this is a perfect addition to my hair game these days. Lelet NY accessories are designed and fabricated by hand in New York City and the brand has a commitment to sourcing materials and labor locally, which I appreciate. I love that you can play around with their accessories, and do a bubble-pony or a high updo, the possibilities are endless!”

Shop: Lelet New York Mixed Metal Double Arch Pony Cuff, $188.00

Briogeo Rosarco Milk Leave-In Conditioning Spray

“This is the only product that helps my hair with frizz and moisturizes it (without leaving it greasy). As I mentioned, I love multi-use products, and I sometimes reach for it when I just need extra moisture, add a heat-protectant, and style my hair. It’s been a staple in my routine for a long time and I could never have enough bottles of it.”

Shop: Briogeo Rosarco Milk Leave-In Conditioning Spray, $25.00
