At the 98th Academy Awards, also known as The Oscars, winners will walk away with coveted golden statuettes, but it’s the extravagant nominee gift bags that often steal the spotlight. Valued at six figures, these goodie bags are filled with luxury beauty, wellness, and lifestyle products that have become almost as famous as the awards ceremony itself.
Unlike previous years, the 2026 nominee gift bags are designed as a ‘everyone wins’ treat for all nominees, whether they win an award or not. These exclusive gift bags are put together by an L.A.-based entertainment marketing company and are not officially endorsed by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences.
This year, skincare products are the highlight of the gift bags, aligning perfectly with the nominees’ meticulous skin preparations for the event. Nominees will be pampered with products from Glow Recipe, a popular Korean-inspired skincare brand known for its viral fruit-powered formulas. The gift includes the Watermelon Glow toner and Korean toner pads to enhance and brighten the skin.
Another standout brand featured in the gift bags is INSTYTUTUM, a Swiss skincare brand offering a luxurious three-piece skincare set renowned for its science-backed formulas and active ingredients. Sun protection is also covered with Supergoop!’s Invisible SPF primer, a lightweight formula loved by makeup artists for its skin-smoothing and broad-spectrum sun protection benefits.
Danucera, a luxury skincare brand founded by aesthetician Danuta Mieloch, contributes skincare products and a sculpt-and-lift facial experience to the gift bags. Nominees will also enjoy a $400 spa credit for Desuar Spa, where they can indulge in facials and massages.
Beyond skincare, the gift bags feature headline-grabbing cosmetic treatments, including a body-sculpting experience from ArtLipo with Dr. Thomas Su, a smile makeover consultation from Beverly Hills Dental Arts, and a $25,000 facial rejuvenation procedure with Dr. Konstantin Vasyukevich.
In essence, even nominees who don’t take home an award will leave the Oscars with radiant skin, luxurious spa treatments, and a beauty haul that most can only dream of.
