Welcome to Giftmas, the week of Gift Guides. I’ve decided, seeing as Blogtober went so well, to give Blogmas a little go this year – but I’m going into it with no promises! There’s lot’s to plan on my end, but, a week of gift guides is going to kick off the Christmas vibes on the blog, and day one is all about spa-esque gifts for that someone that deserves a cosy evening in – let’s face it, that could go down for any of us after the year we’ve just had. Pamper-themed gifts can be a little cliche and, let’s face it, boring these days, but, if you go to the effort to put your own together, rather than buying a pre-made one, it can be tailored and, oh-so cute!
You have to include a bath bomb, and, while there’s no end of these to choose from, the one I went for was this little set that comes with two bath bombs and two bath melts. For the perfect bath set up, and for a bit of a more expensive gift, add this Beautify Bath Caddy for them to keep their bath kit on. To go with that relaxing bath, how about adding in a Christmas candle, like this moose candle. It is a pamper kit, but add in a practical, but beautiful soap set. For perfect bath time reading try one of these little books on Hope or Kindness. And to finish, when they get out the bath, give them some fluffy slippers to sink their feet into, and a comfy pair of pj’s to get them ready for bedtime. If you really want to treat them to a good night’s sleep, add in a sleep mask for them too.
Other treats to give your friend that TLC they need...
- Soap (jokey soap) – To add a little humour to your box try these funny soaps. There’s got options for him and her, but definitely not for someone with no sense of humour!
- Waterproof Speaker – so they can get those relaxing tunes on while they soak in the bath. One of the more indulgent gifts on the list, but wired up with a relaxation playlist it’s worth every penny.
- Mini bottle of ‘Baileys’ – or insert drink of choice here. Adult pamper kits only please (and if you’re making one for me make it a Malibu).
- Love Cocoa – add in a chocolate bar that isn’t just tasty, but is also pretty to look at – Love Cocoa has lot’s to choose from.
- Body Shop Moistoriser – my favourite is, and probably will always be, this Ethiopian Green Coffee Firming cream. It leaves you feeling so smooth, and smells amazing.
- Dreamtime Tea – with flavours of apricot, honey and vanilla, and comes in really pretty packaging that’ll look good in any gift set.
- Body Shop Pillow Mist – Give this to finish the day off with an easy sleep.
- For a blow out – for a post-Christmas spa treat why not actually go to a spa? My favourite and local is the Thermae Bath Spa, but check out your local area for a good one.
