Skincare Gift Ideas for ISTJ
“Logistician“: Practical, like facts and logic, reliable, detailed.
ISTJs like to know a product will work — and how it will work — before trying. So, give them a product that is reliable with some science to it, like acids. The Celimax Jiwoogae Heartleaf BHA Peeling Pad is a good choice.
Some kind of percentage on the packaging with detailed explanations will please the ISTJ. Think NIOD Copper Amino Isolate Serum 2:1 from Deciem.
ISTJs are the type to least enjoy surprises so a gift card would be another great gift for the ISTJ!

Skincare Gift Ideas for ISFJ
“Defender”: Warm, dedicated, protects and defends loved ones.
ISFJs want something practical yet also makes them look and feel good. Think cozy but practical like a gentle skin barrier reinforcing product.
Our picks: Paula’s Choice Weightless Body Lotion With 2% BHA or Celimax The Real Noni Energy Repair Cream.

Skincare Gift Ideas for INFJ
“Advocate”: Quiet, mystical, insightful, idealist.
Get an INFJ something that will help them destress from the chaotic world. Even better if it’s meaningful.
The Sioris Make It Bright Sheet Mask will help the INFJ escape the world and the company Sioris’ values of sustainability are meaningful. The sheet mask is 100% eco-friendly as it comes in recyclable paper packaging. Pair it with a guasha made of jade (has alternative healing powers in Traditional Chinese Medicine!) for a meaningful gift.
You can also appeal to an INFJ with something mystical like this dreamy blue tansy cream: The Blue Cocoon Beauty Balm Concentrate.

Skincare Gift Ideas for INTJ
“Architect”: Imaginative, strategic, critical.
INTJs are critical and love facts. They’ll want a high quality skincare product with a solid formulation. Extra points if there are scientific results to back it up. Our picks:
Aqulabo Vinyasa Calming Serum – A perfect formulation of fermented lotus flower extract, natural vitamin C, and polyphenols. The neuropeptides in this serum will pique an INTJ’s love of facts and knowledge.
Youth To The People Kombucha + 11% AHA Exfoliation Power Toner is another great choice!
INTJs are quite particular when it comes to what they like and dislike so your best bet is to notice what they like and follow the guidelines above.

Skincare Gift Ideas for ISTP
“Virtuoso”: Bold, practical experimenters, masters of tools.
Appeal to an ISTP’s spontaneous and experimental nature with skincare tools like a NuFACE microcurrent facial toning device or a multi-functional product like the Sioris My Soft Grain Scrub.
ISTPs will appreciate a gift that is practical and appeals to one of their obsessions or interests. So if they have a favorite Holy Grail product, getting them another one for when they run out is not a bad idea!

Skincare Gift Ideas for ISFP
“Adventurer”: Flexible, charming, creative, explorer.
ISFP love trying new things so it’s no surprise that they’re named the Adventurer! Feed their sense of adventure with an innovative product like the Aqulabo Jelly Mist or Celimax The Real Noni Refresh Clay Mask.
ISFPs have an eye for beauty so you can also get them a skincare product that will add to the aesthetics of their vanity or Instagram feed (just make sure it’s useful too). d’Alba First Spray Mist Serum is one idea!

Skincare Gift Ideas for INFP
“Mediator”: Poetic, caring, artsy, soft hearted.
An INFP most likely won’t use reason to decide on a product and will lean towards something that feels right and feels good from the start. They may also like a gift that helps them connect to nature or lets them express their artistic side.
Sioris Time Is Running Out Mist and Sioris You Look So Young Night Cream both give off soft poetic vibes and feel like a dream on the skin. Plus, the brand definitely screams ‘nature’ with the organically farmed, in-season ingredients and vegan formulas.
Don’t forget to include a thoughtful card or handwritten note! They’ll take that to heart.

Skincare Gift Ideas for INTP
“Logician”: Innovative, inventors, intellectual.
INTPs are analytical and have a thirst for knowledge. Engage their intellectual curiosity with a retinol product like the IOPE Retinol Expert! It comes in two percentages: 0.1%, 0.3% so they can learn more about the nuances of retinol.
Or how about the Celimax The Real Noni Energy Ampoule Mist? INTPs can study all about the intriguing Noni fruit and Copper Tripeptide ingredients in this mist.

Experience type gifts like a gift voucher for a facial, like the Water Glow PRP ‘Vampire’ Facial, works too.

ESFP are energetic souls that are usually the life of the party. They’ll likely be the center of attention so give them the glow to match with the Celimax The Real Noni Energy Ampoule or the SK-II GenOptics Aura Essence Serum.
Or engage their playful side with a fun product like the Phykology Seaweed Bubble Clay Mask.

Skincare Gift Ideas for ENTP
“Debater”: Efficient, curious, loves debating and challenges.
ENTPs would love a unique gift that makes their skincare routine efficient. The Aqulabo Jelly Mist would do just that! The Jelly Mist is 5.5ph so it’s perfect to use as a toner or sheetmask booster.
ENTPs also enjoys challenges and extremes so an acid like The Ordinary’s AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution definitely fits the bill.

Skincare Gift Ideas for ENFJ
“Protagonist”: Charismatic, leader, caring.
ENFJs love to help others so they may forget to take care of themselves. Remind them they need self care as well with a soothing product like Atoclassic Real Tonic Soothing Origin Essence.
ENFJs also like physical exercise, nature, and spending time outdoors so a sunscreen like The Pure Lotus Jeju Botanical Sun Cream would make a good gift.

Skincare Gift Ideas for ENTJ
“Commander”: Planner, Strategic, Determined.
ENTJS are bold planners and are strategic so any acid or antiaging product would be a good fit. We love the antioxidant rich The Pure Lotus Jeju Lotus Leaf Essence for antiaging!
