Changing Perceptions on Sight Loss in Style
If you’re looking for the perfect self-care gift for someone you love this Christmas, these are some of my top picks.
With Christmas fast on the horizon, I wanted to share some of my top gift ideas for the festive season.
Disclaimer: Contains PR/Gifted items.
Beginning with L’Occitane, L’Occitane is one of my favourite brands, especially during the festive season and this years packaging features a beautiful botanical vintage-inspired design.
Their Almond Range is certainly one of their most popular ones and for good reason, you have a super rich and hydrating range that has that ‘fresh out of the shower’ scent.
The Almond Collection features a range of staple products from the range including the Almond Shower Oil which is a favourite of mine as well as the Almond Milk Concentrate, Almond Hand Soap and Hand Cream making it a great option for couples or people who aren’t fans of anything too fragranced.
L’Ocitanne Skincare Powered Duo (£120)
But suppose you’re getting for someone who is a skincare lover and has slightly more mature skin, this Skincare Powered Duo contains two of their anti-aging products including Imortelle Divine Cream and the Immortelle Precious Overnight Recovery Serum which is one of my all-time favourite products from the brand to help your skin stay smooth and hydrate without sitting too heavily on the skin.
Zesty Kumquat Collection (£32)
For people who prefer something a little more uplifting this new Zesty Kumquat Collection has a very citrus scent and features a foaming shower gel, soap and hand cream perfect for anyone on the go.
One thing L’Occitane does well is Lavender and the White Lavender scene is one of my favourites because it’s slightly more delicate compaired to the regular Lavender range.
This White Lavender Candle is perfect for anyone looking to bring a touch of relaxation to their space over Christmas and contains uplifting notes of petitgrain and bergamot.
One of my absolute favourite brands for gifts at Christmas is Temple Spa, the brand always has beautifully presented gifts inspired by the Mediterranean that have products that give you that ‘at home spa’ feel.
Beginning with fragrance, this Joyful Moments gift set contains a scented candle as well as a reed diffuser to give your home that spa-like scent.
In the set you get the Good Life Candle which has a really energising scent of bergamot, lemon and sweet orange and the Happy Space Difuser which is a refreshing blend of eucalyptus and thyme.
Skincare gifts are always a great idea for so many people from people who are on the go, to people who want to try out the brand as well as teenagers just getting into skincare.
This Time To Glow has a mix of skincare minis to try, you get a cleanser, serum, moisturiser, body scrub and body lotion which contain exfoliating AHA’s and Vitamin C – perfect if your skin is looking a little dull this winter.
Temple Spa always have the best skincare for scent that really makes you feel like you’re having a little spa treatment at home and the colourful citrus fruits makes the gift feel that little bit more luxurious.
If you’re buying for someone who is always on the go, maybe they love travelling or hitting the gym quite a lot this Recharge Spa Gift Set features six bodycare products in three different aromatherapy scents to try.
This gift would be great for anyone who is new to the brand or just wants to luxury of some travel sized products for their next trip away.
One of my favourite brands for candles is St Eval, it’s been a brand I’ve loved for many years and espeically when it comes to Christmas.
Two scents you might like to buy for a loved one are the Inspiritus scent which I would describe as “Christmas in a tin” with notes of clove, nutmeg and cinnamon and these candles have 45 hours of burning time and really do scent a room strongly.
But if you like something a little more citrusy the Orange and Cinnamon scent is really uplifting and really reminds me of the scent of a festive mulled wine, perfect for those chilly winter nights.
Everyone loves a new pair of slippers at Christmas and these Simba slippers that support nine different pressure points in the feet are perfect if you’re looking for a gift for someone who tends to get issues with their feet.
These slippers are part of three new styles from Simba and are the Stormur Slippers based on a classic Moroccan style slipper and they are incredibly comfortable and cushioning to the feet.
One of my favourite brands for comfortable, versatile and cottagcore dresses is Son De Flor – an independent brand that makes linen dresses for a wide range of sizes XXS to 4XL.
This is the Dianne Dress in Red Poppy which is a mid-length red dress with a fitted waste and flatterign v neck line.
But this brand has so many different colours and styles and the best part is because they are linen they will take you from season to season.
Use the code ‘5FASHIONEYESTA’ for 5 percent off everything until December 2.
So that concludes today’s Christmas self-care gift guide, but please do check back where I’ll be showcasing more Christmas content over the coming weeks.
