Gift Guide: Family Friend

Designer Gift Set
Okay so, designer gift sets might not be in everyone’s budget but if your family friend has a mini-me, buying some luxury goods for their bambino is always sure to pull on the heart strings. My top baby designer pick have to be these Armani baby winter clothes – all together now: “n’awwww!”

Beauty Box
If you want to buy some beauty bits and bobs for your family friend but aren’t quite sure what to get, try buying them a subscription to a Beauty Box. That way, they get to test and trial mini sizes before they buy! My favourite is Birchbox and if you buy before Wednesday, you’ll just be in time for their limited edition December box. My top picks from this month’s box are the Sin-Care party serum (ideal for pre and post Christmas parties) and the Nail Rock Glitter, perfect for primping your paws before a festive night out.

Limited Edition Moisturiser
Every lady (and a lot of guys, actually) love a good moisturiser – especially in winter when our skin needs it most – and celeb and blogger fave, STEAMCREAM makes the perfect pretty gift. Not only is the moisturiser of professional quality, the decorative tins make beautiful presents which I like to wash and keep as trinket boxes – two in one! Plus, to celebrate the New Year STEAMCREAM are launching a limited edition tin inspired by the Japanese idiom ‘Ume Ni Uguisu’, meaning ‘a great match’ – a great match for your family friend!

Finally, if you want to get them a special experience, buy them a voucher for some festive afternoon tea. My favourite location for a special spot of cream tea is at the Radisson Blu Edwardian (watch this space for a review coming later this week) and a voucher for a day there is sure to impress.
