I don't ski so have no clue what to get. Looking for cheapish gifts to go with main present. He is 18 and has been skiing quite a few times, so probably has all the main bits, but not in the last year. Any ideas, I am at a loss!

A facial sunblock stick? New warm hat? I have no idea either.

Neck warmer, thermal hat, new gloves, ski socks, lip balm with sunscreen? Thermals? Euros for his next skiing trip?

Ski socks are a good stocking filler for a skier. Also thermals.

I wouldn't recommend any type of ski carrying device - I've been given several over the years and have never used any of them.

Arnica gei, a bit joky but will help with the bruises that come with stacking it

Those face warmer masks that look like skulls or other designs.

Reheatable hand warmers. Saw some in Tkmax. Sometimes have them in Lidl when ski gear in. A hip flask.

Buff, ski socks, lip balm with very high spf, woolie Hat for resort but should wear helmet on slopes. sachet posh hot chocolate. Hand warmer

Gloves / socks or a buff? DH snowboards and I usually manage to find little board tools etc for his stocking. A quick look at some of the outdoor sites usually helps me with little gift ideas. Surfdome has an accessory section which is usually quite good for inspiration!

Is he going skiing imminently? Mini chocs for the lift rides.

Aldi have a lot of ski gear at the moment, buffs, gloves, goggles and socks etc.

Snow wax is always a good one too, sorry, forgot to mention. Or a nice holder for a ski pass?

For his car (if he has one), any laptop or a window etc:
