DESIGNME is bringing a practical spin to [stocking stuffers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/borntostandout-mini-coffret-set) with a collection of miniature haircare Ornaments, launching October 18, 2026. Rather than organizing the holiday lineup around a single routine, the brand offers individual minis spanning hydration, curls, volume, styling and oil control, allowing shoppers to choose products based on specific hair needs.

The assortment includes mini versions of DESIGNME favorites across its GLOSS.ME, BOUNCE.ME, PUFF.ME, HOLD.ME, FAB.ME and QUICKIE.ME ranges. Options range from shampoo and conditioner duos for $20 CAD to $15–$16 CAD styling products, masks, oils, mousses, sprays and dry shampoos. Products include the GLOSS.ME Hair Oil, BOUNCE.ME Curl Balm, PUFF.ME Dry Texture Spray and HOLD.ME Three-Way Hairspray.

The smaller sizes make the collection suited to gifting while also giving consumers a lower-commitment way to experiment with unfamiliar formulas or build [travel-friendly routines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-tool-collections).

For beauty brands, the format shows how [holiday packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perfume-bottle-ornaments) can double as a product discovery strategy. Turning established products into affordable, need-specific minis can attract new users while giving existing customers practical gifts that retain value after the holidays.
