If You Have A Loved One Who Is Passionate About Self-Care, Here’s What To Buy Them For Christmas

The holidays are here, and it’s time to start shopping! Shopping for the perfect holiday gifts for the people in your life can get really stressful, especially if they haven’t mentioned something very specific that they’d like or need.

Then, you start worrying about your gift feeling super impersonal if you get them a more general gift like a gift card or some cash. 

Now is the time to reflect and think about the interests and passions of your loved ones. Think about activities, hobbies, or practices they’ve mentioned over the years and what they like to indulge in. 

Do you know someone who’s really passionate about self-care? Like a girlfriend or sister who always has an updated skincare routine, isn’t afraid to splurge on a hair treatment, and values rest and relaxation? 

If you’re shopping for a self-care aficionado, here are some great gifts to get them that will make a great addition to their pampering routines!

Scalp Massager Brush

While these little contraptions may look odd, a silicone scalp massager is an excellent self-care gift! They’re one of those items you may not need, but once you start using one, you’ll want it to become part of your daily routine. 

These massagers can be used in the shower while shampooing your hair, helping remove irritating, dead skin cells and preventing dandruff. Plus, they feel amazing, and you can find them reasonably priced online.

A Satin Pillowcase

Believe it or not, there are a ton of benefits to satin pillowcases! The smooth texture of the satin helps reduce friction when you move around at night, helping to reduce wrinkles and fine lines on the face, as well as damage to your hair. 

They’re a great gift as not only will they benefit your loved one’s well-being, but they also look really pretty. 

A New Lush Product

Lush stores are a great go-to stop during holiday shopping. I mean, who doesn’t love using an amazing-smelling soap or silky-smooth lotion? 

Grab your self-care-loving friend a new body wash, scrub, bath bomb, or moisturizer in one of their most favorite scents, and they’ll be very happy. If you don’t know their favorite scent or which product to get for them, tell a Lush employee everything you know about their interests and routines, and they’ll help you out!

A Spa Bubble Headband

If you don’t know the spa bubble headband, it’s the same puffy, bubbly headband you see influencers put on their heads during their “get ready with me” videos. Anyone who spends a lot of time on social media and watches wellness or lifestyle influencers has certainly seen these headbands.

If you want to help your loved one feel like an influencer or beauty guru anytime they do their skincare or makeup routines, get them one of these headbands.

A Cryotherapy Ice Roller

These little ice rollers are amazing for people who deal with puffy faces in the morning and are a great gift for anyone who loves revitalizing skin care. 

These ice rollers are often reasonably priced and easy to find online. If you know your loved one is still using frozen spoons or the same tiny jade roller they’ve had for a few years, get them one of these, and I’m sure they’ll love it.

A New Pair Of Slippers

I don’t know a single person who would turn down a comfy pair of house slippers. I’ve noticed that I’ve started wearing slippers around the house more often as I’ve gotten older. When I’m doing my skincare or winding down for a night of pampering, I want to wear my slippers. 

You can choose a pair of slippers or comfy shoes for your loved one based on your budget. You could pick out a pair of Ugg mini boots, which are very popular right now, or a simple slip-on flip-flop style slipper from your nearest shoe store. Either way, slippers are a sweet way to show your loved ones that you want them to be cozy.

These gifts will surely bring a smile to your pampered loved one’s face. Even if they already have one of these items, there’s no harm in having backups. Happy shopping!
