I Found the Perfect Gal/Valentine’s Day Gift So You Don’t Have To

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Mass Amherst chapter.

The day for loving your significant other and/or friends a little extra is racing towards us and if you’re anything like me, you’re panicking to find the perfect gift to give. Well, you can relax now because I’ve got you covered. Haircare line, amika, has partnered up with Netflix to create the To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before Polished Perfection Mini Straightening Brush Set. 

This adorable limited-edition collection includes amika’s travel-sized Polished Perfection straightening hairbrush and their signature Perk Up dry shampoo along with a super cute sticker page featuring items that scream “Lara Jean”, who we’ll finally be seeing again this month in Netflix’s To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You! The straightener brush features an exclusive pattern inspired by the film and will be so cute for a Valentine’s or Galentine’s Day present. Both products come in a reusable pink and blue carrying case for convenient, on-the-go styling. This gift set is ideal for anyone (including yourself!) who loves keeping their hair looking stylish and frizz/grease-free. The collection will be sold exclusively at Sephora starting February 6 for $35. 

I’ve personally tested out the Polished Perfection mini hairbrush straightener and it is fantastic for taming pesky flyaways and achieving gorgeous, glossy hair in a matter of seconds. If you or whoever you’d like to give this set to has bangs, the mini straightener is also great for quickly smoothing out fringe before running out the door. The straightener works best for people with medium to fine hair and is totally color-safe as well. Because this straightener is used exactly like a normal hairbrush, straightening your hair has never been so easy and convenient. I love my flat iron but sometimes I just don’t have the patience to style my entire head so the mini straightener brush is great for fast touch-ups, plus, the brush heats up to 400 degrees in just a few seconds so it doesn’t take long at all to get that professional salon-look right from home! 

In a previous Her Campus article, I mentioned amika’s Perk Up dry shampoo as one of my holy-grail beauty products. With this gift set, you’ll receive a travel size bottle so you can test it out for yourself to see what all the fuss is about! Perk Up is aluminum and talc-free so it absorbs oil and grease instantly and leaves zero white residue, refreshing your hair so it looks like you’ve just washed and styled your locks to perfection. The mini Perk Up dry shampoo is the perfect size for throwing in your purse or backpack to use if you feel like you need to add a little volume or clean up your hair throughout the day. I personally love spritzing some in my hair after I workout at my school’s gym so I look a little more put together for class and I don’t need to sit in lecture with soaking wet hair from the shower. 

Mark your calendars for February 6th so you don’t miss the chance to get your hands on this limited-edition collection that’ll definitely put a smile on the face of whoever receives it!
