The Beauty Products That Are Flying Off The Shelves in December
https://ift.tt/2GiKFct
Not to stress you out, but we’re two weeks out from Christmas and the panic should be starting to set in. If you want a window into what you should be buying for the beauty enthusiast on your list—and also come across like you’re really in the know— all you need to be aware of is what’s been selling like crazy these last few week. (Also, finding out what everyone else is buying can satisfy the nerdiest of the nosy among us). We checked in with four different Toronto beauty destinations to see what they couldn’t keep in stock. You can thank us later.

Tata Harper Créme Riche
($247, Jacob & Sebastian)
“We really didn’t expect that a $247 face moisturizer would literally FLY off of the shelves, but this one did. The JUST re-launched Creme Riche by all-natural beauty brand Tata Harper was likely on many a Christmas list. It is almost always men who are coming in and pulling up a screen shot on their phones to purchase the product for their partners. We did an in-store demo when the product first launched, and gave away free samples, so we assume that customers LOVED the product, but put it on their Christmas list since it is pretty expensive.” —Joel Dart, owner, Jacob & Sebastian

Cardea Rose Quartz Roller
($38, Jacob & Sebastian)
“We have sold jade and quartz facial rollers for years, but suddenly (likely due to its Instagram popularity these days), the rose quartz roller seems to be a must-have this holiday season. At $38, the beautifully boxed, and really sturdy Cardea AuSet rose quartz roller is just so EASY to gift to any beauty lover, since it pairs so well with existing products (facial oils, serums, etc). We have gone from ordering about 12 a month, to over 80 per month! Luckily, since the brand is based out of Niagara Falls, restocking is relatively quick and easy.”

Boy Smells Kush Candle
($46, Jacob & Sebastian)
“Maybe it’s due to Ontario’s new cannabis legislation, or due to the drop in the temperature outside, but the Kush candle by L.A. based Boy Smells sells at least 10 to 1 of any other candle in the shop. We try our very best to keep this hot product in store, but it usually pre-sells even before we get a re-stock. It really is the perfect non “skunky” cannabis-inspired scent, so we are not really surprised at how popular it is.”

RODIN x Vanessa Traina luxury lip and cheek oil
($38, Jacob & Sebastian)
“These JUST launched, and after a single posting on IG, they sold out in one day. Unlike the super saturated original RODIN lipsticks, this collection is more about a simple, no-nonsense “hue” of creamy colour, making them a really easy, and useful gift. Luckily, we were able to order a bunch more to satisfy all pre-orders, and do have extra for the gifting season. We were really sad to hear the news of Linda exiting her company, but somehow street style star, Vanessa Traina seems to have captured some of Rodin’s original “vibe” with this collection. The oils are really useful, and also so beautiful on both the lip or cheek.”

Tata Harper Revitalizing Body Oil
($126, Gee Beauty)
“This all-natural, nutrient dense body oil is a consistent best seller for holiday, season over season. I think it’s because it represents luxury but works with every skin type and age range. It’s a very luxurious gift that people wouldn’t necessarily buy for themselves.” —Stephanie Gee, co-owner of Gee Beauty

Gee Beauty
Jade Roller
($40, Gee Beauty)
“Second to the body oil are definitely skin tools. The jade roller is more popular. It’s huge on IG, seen on top shelves. It’s also a great gift builder: you can throw it in with a lip balm and eye mask. It’s a form of luxury and self care, it’s fun, it’s age appropriate and it looks beautiful on your bathroom counter.”

Rose Gua Sha Scraping Massage Tool
($35, Gee Beauty)
Tips Nail Bar

Tips Nail Bar
Gold Derma Roller
($72, Well.ca)
“I got introduced to the gold derma roller when I had a treatment at Face Gym in London and bought one there. I became obsessed and brought in about 40 to Tips and they flew off the shelves in about two weeks. They’re visually stimulating–people would see them and say ‘what are those?’ and would buy 3 or 4 at a time at $50 each. They had never used a tool like that but knew about jade rollers. We can’t get any more for another few weeks so we’ve missed the holiday boat, but you can buy one from well.ca.” —Leeanne Colley, owner of Tips Nail Bar

Tips Nail Bar
24KT Gold Mask Trio
($19, Hadaka)
“What’s also selling is the Hadaka face, eye and lip masks. You can reuse them 2-3 times and they’re really reasonably priced. The face mask is $12, the eye and lip masks are $6 or you can buy a set of the three that comes in this gold package for $19. I think it’s the price point but also again they’re gold; it’s not like your typical white sheet mask. So they’re super interesting to look at. We brought those in three weeks ago and have sold out of them, I would say, 8 times.”
The Detox Market

The Detox Market
Odacité Skincare Crystal Contour Gua Sha
($47, The Detox Market)
“The biggest thing that is drawing people into the store is all of the social media awareness that’s been brought to crystal beauty tools. It all started with the jade roller, which most people are familiar with, and then Odacité released their gua sha stone. Skeptism is obviously a big thing, but people were starting to see improvements just using them themselves at home. Puffiness is a big one but people have also been using it more strategically for detoxification, lymphatic drainage and even sinus relief.” —Laura Townsend, marketing director, The Detox Market

Detox Mode Altogether Oil
($42, The Detox Market)
“In October, The Detox Market launched its own brand, Detox Mode. We encouraged our community to get involved in the selection process of what skus we launched. The dry oil came about because one thing we were learning when we asked our clients what products that they couldn’t get rid of from the conventional world, was that they were spending all of their money on face products but not paying attention to the rest of their body. So the dry oil was the perfect fit as we didn’t have one at the store. It can be used on the fly, just right on after the shower on damp skin. The bottle is also travel friendly and has a really handy spray.”
