Holiday Gift Guide 2025: Stamina Skincare Favorites
The holiday season is here culminating in connections, glowing celebrations and thoughtful giving. Often, it's also a time we feel most overwhelmed, stressed, and depleted amongst the chaotic excitement. This year at Stamina Cosmetics feels especially meaningful. Our founder, Dr. Marianna Blyumin Karasik, board certified holistic dermatologist, recently published new research on 29 scientifically validated topical adaptogens and their role in supporting the skin’s ability to handle stress.

Stamina was created from this philosophy: skincare should support the whole person and pave the path to wellness. Ingredients that honor science. Botanicals that honor nature. Clean and clinical formulations that honor the skin barrier. Adaptogens that augment resilience by counteracting stress. And affirmations that strengthen the mind-skin connection.
Below is your curated guide to gifting Stamina. Each piece is designed to bring calm, clarity and confidence to the person receiving it.
