I am one of those people who never knows what she wants for Christmas – I actually have no clue what I want this year so if the lady in your life is the same, then here are a few gift ideas for that special someone.
This Olverum bath oil, made with essential natural oils, would make a lovely gift if you want to get the lady in your life to relax. It smells absolutely divine and currently retails at £26 for the 125ml size (enough for 25 baths) and £48 for the 250ml size which is enough for 50 baths. Available at Liberty, Harvey Nichols, Conran and House of Fraser.
This bath oil is great for easing those aching or sore muscles and is also a fantastic soother for colds and flu. It is a unique and highly concentrated, therapeutic bath oil which contains 10 pure essential oils, carefully blended to work together. For years it was a cult product surviving by word of mouth and has recently relaunched. Recently quoted as ‘bath nirvana’, why not treat someone you love to this?
Janiro are a brand I’ve worked with plenty of times in the past so how could I not include some of their products in a gift guide for ladies? Their Ginvera Marvel White Zero Blackhead Marvel Gel (£16) and their Bio-Essence Bio Platinum BB Cream (£18.90) would make great additions to any females cosmetics collection.
Its easy to see why Janiro products are beloved by so many people. Not only do they do the job but they’re good quality and affordable too. What’s not to love?
An affordable and simple gift that you could pick up for the lady in your life is the Nelsons Arnicare Arnica Bath & Massage Balm. A dual purpose balm enriched with Evening Primrose and rich Sweet Almond oil to naturally hydrate the skin, it is designed for massaging into tired muscles or for use in a relaxing bath. At just £8.55, it makes for a great treat after a long day.
If the woman in your life likes her make-up, perhaps a palette and some brushes from Blank Canvas Cosmetics would do the trick. The Master Series Palette One (£31+) is a great palette for eyeshadow lovers – the palette has the perfect balance of 11 velvety matte shades ranging from a gorgeous vanilla base colour to a dark brown shade. It also contains 1 shimmery champagne highlighter shade. It also contains their bestselling vegan friendly E40/41 Double Ended Tapered Crease Blender/Smudger. The stiff flat shader end (E40) can be used dry/damp to apply eyeshadow. The fluffy dome side (E41) can be used to blend seamlessly.
All makeup lovers need some good brushes so these F20 (£13+) and F05 (£9) would make a great addition to the palette as an extra gift.
If the lady in your life loves looking after her hair, then this Carmen by Samantha Salon Glamour Styler (RRP £54.99) would surely make her smile. Part of the range by ex TOWIE alumni Samantha Faiers, this styler lets you experiment with your look without having to visit the salon while the 47mm ceramic coated barrel and advanced Keratin Protech technology maintains and protects your hair during repeated styling. With two temperature settings, this is the perfect hair styling product for any female this Christmas.
This Murad Merry & Beautiful Gift Box (RRP £60, worth £121.50) is the perfect skincare gift box to give to someone this Christmas. Containing the AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser, the Hydro-Dynamic Ultimate Moisture and the Rapid Collagen Infusion products, you can ensure that the lady in your life looks after her skin luxuriously this winter.
If jewellery is more her thing, perhaps some items from DIWAH would be perfect? They are a fairly new jewellery brand which specialise in semi-precious and their online platform allows customers to design their own jewellery. All of the jewellery is then handmade in the UK by one of their very skilled jewellery design team members. There is a choice of over 1000 components, so the design options are endless when creating the perfect gift for someone. If struggling to choose, they also have gift codes – so the person you gift it too can design their jewellery for themselves!
Their bracelets and necklaces are just beautiful and I would love to receive one under the tree this year – wouldn’t you?
These are just a few ideas for Christmas for the ladies in your life – what do you like best?
