Selfcare Gift Guide 2020

PR SAMPLES/AFFILIATED LINKS 

This year really hasn’t been easy on any of us.  More than ever, this is the year to gift your friends and loved ones some self-care products!  We can all use a little more relaxation and self-care going into the next year. In this edit, I’ve chosen all the gifts that I’ve personally loved using or would love to receive.  Scroll on to check out my picks!

Slip Beauty Sleep Gift Set

We all know a good night’s sleep is vital to our physical health and emotional wellbeing. This year why not gift some luxurious beauty sleep! SLIP Silk Pillowcases are fabulous anti-ageing beauty tools!

Here are the key benefits:

• Helps to reduce signs of friction, stretching and tugging on delicate facial skin
• Silk fibres promote the longevity of hair and facial products
• Allows skin to glide along the pillow while reducing extra pressure on creased skin
• Resists pulling of hair cuticles and helps preserve style, volume and length of hair

SLIP knows how to do luxurious Gift Sets, and this year is no different (I want them all).  I have the gorgeous Beauty Sleep Set to show you here, featuring the white pillow case and pink sleeping mask.  There are two more beautiful colour ways available.

Cochine Limited Edition Orange Amère & Star Anise Candle

This beautiful candle would add a lovely touch to any self-care routine! Housed in a gorgeous red glass, the candle smells absolutely incredible! Inspired by her wanders through the fragrant spice markets of Saigon, Cochine founder Kate Crofton-Atkins set out to create a scent that blends the rich, warm scents of Asia with memories of cosy, indulgent Christmas evenings at home.

Top notes of Orange Amère (Bitter Orange) and magical Star Anise, hints of holiday favorites Clove, Nutmeg and Cinnamon leaf, and base notes of warming Vanilla and smoky Guaiacwood. 

Atelier Cologne Limited-Edition Love Osmanthus

This Christmas, Atelier Cologne has released some coveted gifts, from the Advent Calendar (full details here) to the limited edition Love Osmanthus and Oolang Infini Cologne Absolu.

I have the stunning limited edition Love Osmanthus to share with you here.  I love the luxurious red glass, gold cap and gold engraving!

Notes:

• Lemon from Italy
• Osmanthus from China
• Cedarwood from America

Love Osmanthus is a fruity, sweet, floral scent with a juicy, invigorating opening. Such a delight to wear!

Rituals The Ritual of Jing Calming Collection

Give the gift of Happiness with a Rituals Gift Set! There isn’t a scent that I don’t love by the brand! They have home, bath and body products to offer any loved one or yourself that perfect moment of calm and relaxation.  In addition, I love that Rituals gift sets have 100% compostable inlays. 

I chose the Ritual of Jing Calming Collection as a gift for my husband.  This is a newest scent to discover, inspired by the ancient Chinese concept of Jing which represents calmness, stillness and tranquility.
