A perfect candle
Nothing says self care like finding the perfect candle. Whilst everyone may have different preferences in scent, when it comes to aromatherapy, you can’t go wrong with choosing one to create a wellbeing space. Bonus points if you personalise it to their needs – I’ve picked out this ‘Happy Space’ candle, but Aery Living have loads of great self care candle options!

A cosy drink
Their go-to hot drink may be a delicious coffee, but if you’re trying to encourage them to chill out in the evening, copious amounts of caffeine probably isn’t the way to go. Relax with a warm, cosy drink, like a revitalising matcha, indulgent hot chocolate, or sleepy tea.

A journal for your thoughts
Everyone can benefit from journaling and planning, and simply getting your thoughts out of your head and onto some paper. Whether you choose them a more structured planner to get clear on their upcoming weeks and months, or a gratitude journal to help them become more intentional and mindful, writing can be a great self care tool for all.

A sleepy pillowcase
Make their bed feel more luxurious, whilst looking after their hair at the same time! They’ll love climbing into bed to this silk pillowcase after a long day, knowing their hair will also feel the affects as well.

A treat for the skin
The colder months can have a drying effect on the skin, leading to tightness, soreness, and redness. A replenishing face mask is a real treat for the skin, to nourish and add moisture. My favourites to gift are the Garnier Sheet Masks, giving them a variety to choose from, depending on their specific skincare goals.

An invigorating lip kit
Lip care is often a forgotten, yet important, part of self care. It’s likely something that your loved ones have forgotten too! Whilst a simple pot of Vaseline or stick lip balm will do the trick, give them something a bit more indulgent, like this tint and treat lip kit or balm jar gift set!

A relaxing oil
Encourage moments of calm with a tranquil essential oil, to set the perfect self care scene. A calming mix of patchouli and lavender is the perfect recipe for relaxation, to add to a diffuser or in a nice, warm bath. It’s the best excuse for them to stop and recharge!
