5. The Body Shop Almond Handy Manicure Set
Buying for other people can be extremely tricky, especially if you don't know them like the back of your hand. That's why I've picked out a few gems, all for under £15 and all amazing gifts for the women in your life.
When you're really stuck for gift ideas, it's always best to go down the beauty route. Everyone loves a good moisturiser, bubble bath or nail polish. The rule of thumb for me is, if it smells nice, it's a nice gift. That's why Lush is always a go to store when I'm looking to buy the females in my family a gift. Luckily for me, the women in my family (and there's a lot of them) all love a bit of Lush. This year I've got my eye on the Lush Golden Wonder Gift Set as the Golden Wonder bath bomb is one of my all time favourites. You can't go wrong with a fancy bath bomb and a multi-purpose bit of play-doh.
If the thought of heading into Lush at Christmas makes you shudder with fear, don't worry, there's other options. The first set that really caught my eye was The Body Shop manicure sets. They come in a bunch of different types including the Almond hand cream and the Hemp hand cream, both of which are amazing. You get a full size, 100ml hand cream, a mini nail buffer, nail file and some nail clippers. Everything you could need for soft and well groomed hands.
If you fancy a bit more luxury, then the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream set is great for someone who wants to give Elizabeth Arden products a test drive. In this set you get to try out the cult Eight Hour daily moisturiser, the skin protectant (which I swear by) and the hand cream. All amazing products in miniature size, perfect for throwing in your handbag.
Another amazing set is the Burt's Bees Tips & Toes set. I've only recently been trying out a few more of Burt's Bees skincare products, but I'm really impressed with what I've used so far. You get a whole host of different products in this set, ranging from two hand creams, foot cream, hand salve, lip balm and cuticle cream. So many products to try from a really great and natural company.
Finally, for all those beauty junkies, there's the Models Own gift set. This is great if you have a friend or family member who is nail polish crazy. There are so many different shades and every single one is a vibrant and beautiful colour. These are hyper gel polishes which means that not only will they have amazing shine, but they'll also have great staying power.
Do you have difficulty buying for the women on your Christmas lists? What's your go to female present?
Would be very happy to recieve any of these! Although I do think a Yankee Candle would make a really good gift as well!
