“Fancy” is less of a price point and more of a state of mind. Anything can be fancy as long as it elevates what is otherwise ordinary. Rose-scented pencils? Fancy. Uni-dusted chips? Fancy (and delicious). For the fancypants in your life, start with the most beautiful facial spray to hit a Top Shelf. Dehiya’s Safi Mist smells like fresh cut geraniums and makes your skin feel like it’s taken a trip to the tropics—practically balmy. Speaking of which, Monastery’s Universal Balm is a head-to-toe winner. It certainly feels and smells good—you can thank mango butter and a few sophisticated woody and neroli notes for that—but the tiny key that the salve comes with really kicks the whole experience up another notch.
Moving along to lips, there are two-under-the radar options. Chic! Orcé’s Lip Tint delivers a wash of color in a smooth, high shine layer of non-sticky gloss. Meanwhile, Ever Amid’s Rouge Stain is part beauty product, part objet. The handcrafted porcelain pot doubles as a keepsake when the stain is used up, which, by the way, paints the prettiest rosy flush on lips and cheeks.
Even if they’re not a beauty person, they still need to tie their hair up from time to time. Lelet’s gold pony cuff functions like a scrunchie, but looks like jewelry. Alternatively, surely there’s a hot beverage calling their name. Gustaf Westman’s chunky cup is the perfect vessel to store it. Even if their name isn’t Nara Smith.
