Cheap gift ideas for mid-20s girly female

As it says above I guess, I'm looking for present ideas for my sister in law - very girly, hair extensions, false nails, make up, heels etc. She has a couple of toy dogs if that helps with ideas.

We've bought a handbag, nice chunky scarf and bespoke Christmas decoration (1st Christmas after marrying DBrother) in previous years. This year we are seriously skint following a run of maternity leave / nursery fees / £600+ car repair bill out of the blue last week, so I'm looking at £10 or less for a gift for her this time. I didn't want to get a toiletries box set (Dove, Nivea etc.) as I don't know what she likes. I know she gets her nails professionally done so I couldn't get a nail polish set.

Any nice, general gift ideas? TIA.

Jewellery Box, discounted Sterling Silver jewellery, loads to choose from necklaces, bangles, rings, earrings and you will definitely find something for about £10 with free postage too.

Have a look at Lisa Angel. Theres some lovely stuff on there and last year (and maybe previous years) they did amazing black Friday sales. I got a sterling silver bracelet that should have been £20 ish for £1.50!

Pewterhooter jewellery from amazon?
A night in kit- face mask, popcorn, dvd
Have you got your brother yet? Could you get them a joint gift- cinema or afternoon tea voucher?

Yes to lisa angel - funky earrings don’t cost a lot and are lovely on there

Thanks for these but I'll have a look at Lisa angel on Black Friday for deals. My brother has suggested a pub voucher for them to eat out together, which we've bought before for his birthday. We'll go with that if I can't find anything in the meantime.

Accessorise Z collection gold earrings with semi precious stones (£10-20).

Glossier lip balm dot coms

Bottle of wine?

LemonPrism · 21/11/2019 15:31

Baileys is £12

Thanks @LemonPrism, I had wondered about the offers currently on spirits. I'll have a think as I'm not sure what she drinks. I get the impression she tends to be designated driver for my brother. Hmm

Set of hair curlers xD
And some expensive hair treatment stuff.
Bath salts. Lush bathbombs.

I would go with the voucher to be honest - chances are your brother has asked her what she would like off you and this has been her response. I’m more late 20s than mid now and I know it sounds ungrateful but I just don’t want any more token cheap gifts, I have everything I need and I like what I like. I would much prefer a voucher.
