I give to 2 friends and we try and buy each other something that feels like a real treat, that we wouldn’t normally buy for ourselves. Budget is around £20. Last year I had lovely body oil from one of them. From the other a gorgeous leather notebook.
I was pondering on some lovely socks? Anyone recommend any?
Or any other ideas?
TIA Smile

Not socks but I would love a nice expensive shampoo or hair treatment that I wouldn't buy myself

Rhubarb and rose Molton Brown shower gel. Love it!

I meant I'm not answering your question by not socks.....not that I wouldn't like socks! 🙈Sorry!

I get this from my friend sometimes. I think it's feels quite treaty and it's exactly £20. www.clarins.co.uk/relax-bath-shower-concentrate/0066810.html#start=1

I'm afraid I'd be disappointed if someone spent £20 on posh socks for me when there are plenty of things I would like but hopefully one of them might hit on that idea for you!

I'd love to receive Trilogy Botanical body wash. It smells so gorgeous, like having a spa treatment. And because you don't live in rip-off Ireland you'd have a couple of quid left over to buy a shower puff too Wink.

Alternatively I'd really like a good hand cream. None of your soap & glory stuff because it's better value (looking at you Mother) I'd like a really decent, luxurious hand cream. L'occitane, Clarins, Crabtree & Evelyn do some nice ones too.

Depends on what sort of stuff they like but for me?

Book token for £20 would be my idea of heaven
Really, really nice coffee.
A voucher for a facial massage

SavageBeauty73 · 15/11/2017 22:28

Any nice toiletries. Not Baylis and Harding.

GoodGirlsGuide · 15/11/2017 22:29

I second the Molton Brown, but would suggest anything at all they make. I love it all and have 4 different kinds of hand soap in my bathrooms and kitchen. They last for ever too so actually great value.

VivaLeBeaver · 15/11/2017 22:31

L'occitane shower oil.

HRTpatch · 15/11/2017 22:34

Fancy hand cream or fancy chocolates.
