Christmas Gifts for Her on a Budget

For the self-care queen

She has mantras for days and a vision board hanging over her desk. This is a woman that knows how to check in with herself. While a spa day voucher might blow the budget, our friends over at Sanctuary Spa have many tricks up their terry cloth sleeve to mimic that spa feeling at home. Cue this body glow gift set – which is a 25-minute spa treatment in a box (for waaaay less!)

For the ‘please-don’t-get-me-anything’ club member

If your mum or bestie is claiming that she doesn’t need anything this year, but you still want to treat them to a small-but-mighty gift, this truly pampered gift set from Dove ticks all the boxes. A practical choice that won’t collect dust in the back of a cupboard, it features two full-size bottles of body wash and a luxe shower puff. It’s a small gesture to elevate their everyday – job done!

For the one always on holiday

Her diary is blocked out with more hotel stays than a pop star doing their first worldwide gig and she lives exclusively out of her suitcase. Yes, we all know someone with the travel bug. But, you don’t need to match their jet set (read: expensive) energy this Christmas – instead get them a gift they can pack on their travels. Like this three-piece fragrance set from Superdrug’s very own Artiscent, complete with 20ml travel-sized bottles – perfect for throwing in your carry-on.   

For the time-strapped busy body

From first-time mums to that bestie with three side hustles, we all know someone who spends their days bouncing from one thing to the next with no downtime in between. Encourage her to block out time for a speedy at-home pamper sesh with this facial-in-a-box from Simple. Featuring not one, but four sheet masks and a spa-inspired headband, it’s sure to add a moment of calm to her day.

For the work Secret Santa

What do you do when you don’t know a person that well? Instead of guessing what their favourite hobby is based on the background of their Zoom call, play it safe with a gift that says ‘treat yourself’. This 5-piece gift set from Baylis & Harding, featuring pampering products in their signature Vanilla & Almond scent, is the ultimate crowd-pleaser.
