Holiday Gift Guide: Best Christmas gifts for you and your BFF

The holiday season is here and it is time to do our shopping. Some people start early because they have already planned their list. But if you are like me and wait for the last minute to get the best deals or decide on the right gift, it could be time consuming, living you in panic and a confused state.

This year has been saddled with a pandemic but we will end it on a good note and we are hopeful that the year 2021 will send us back to a normal life.

Even though this year has been harsh, I also think that you need to reward yourself for your achievements so far and why not give your BFF a nice present for listening to you and supporting you throughout the year. So, I have created a list of the most beautiful gifts.

FOR YOUR SKIN

I like to take care of my skin and The Ordinary Skincare has a range of products that contain caffeine and antioxidants that I like very much. Hurry so you can take advantage of the sale on products from this brand!

I have been using this face cream from The Body Shop and you should give a try. This anti-aging face cream is perfect for you, especially if you have a dry and sensitive skin. Don’t forget to apply the Code: giftse.

Since the holidays are a time for self-care, let me recommend my latest favorite tool, the jade facial roller, a Chinese skincare tool that has been used for thousands of years, perfect for de-puffing and soothing the skin.

FOR YOUR HAIR

Not a fan of buying natural hair products all the time because you are trying to wean yourself for the product junkiesm! Well I recommend this deep conditioner that a lot of naturalistas have been raving about. It moisturizes the driest tresses and keep curls soft. Looking for a product to keep your curls defined for days? Get my favourite go-to styler for defined and moisturized curls and coils from the Camille Rose Naturals brand here and take advantage of the extra sale. Don’t forget to apply the Code: SALEX10 .

Who doesn’t like to wear lipstick that stays all day without touch ups in between meals and coffees? I surely do, check this lipstick that comes in about 20 shades, you will definitely like it! Did I say my favorite color is plum red?

If you have a BFF that is hard to shop for, get them these colourful socks. I own a few pairs of these and they are the best to wear during the boring and dark winter days. Use Code 20HOLIDAYS to Get 20% Off your purchase.

Does your BFF like to exercise? Then she will fall in love with an item from this brand. Now that Working From Home has become part of our life, it is easy to slack back in bad habits. So, we need to get moving, burn those extra calories and keep in shape. Is your BFF a coffee addict? Then why not get her this coffee mug. It has a TriMax triple insulation that keeps hot drinks hot for up to 8 hours and cold drinks cold for up to 36 hours.

FOR YOUR HOME

If you REALLY have the means to splurge on yourself or your friend, get this kitchen appliance that is multipurpose and get the job done in no time. I love to bake cookies and saffron buns for me, my friends and my loved ones during Christmas, so I decided to get one and it is totally worth the price! 

A nice and scented home is where people feel welcome to spend time with you and never want to leave. I like my home to smell very nice since I am going to receive guests during the holidays and I use these scented candles from Osmology that come in a gift set.

Decorating the christmas tree is something I do not rush to do, I leave it to the kids. Basically, I don’t know what to hang in the tree and if you are sometimes undecisive like me, then you want to check these amazing christmas decorations. They have a wide range of personalized decorations and even for your pets!

Dropped your brand new mobile on hard surface a couple of times? This happens to everyone especially if you like juggling many things at the same time. Protecting your phone with this silicon case is the best solution ever! This brand has a wide range of cases to choose from and  for phone brands such as Samsung,Huawei, Apple etc.

FOR SELF-DEVELOPMENT

If you are always on the lookout for learning new skills, this is the time to acquire new in-demand skills and polish the ones you already have. Why not try a course in data science from Udemy! Since they are celebrating 10 years of learning, you don’t want to miss out on some of their best courses that motivated me to start blogging. They also have courses in various subjects that I am pretty sure you you will be interested in! 

It can be tough to shop for yourself and your BFF especially if she is the type who has everything including the latest gadgets, but trust me she will always appreciate a gift from you, her BFF! With this guide, you will definitely find something you fancy!

If you are reading this blog post, I want to thank you for your support throughout the year and on this note I wish you

A Merry Christmas and

a Happy New year.
