As someone who also loves Gilmore Girls and being at home, I love my Luke's Diner candle! I think it's this one but it was a gift so I'm not 100% certain https://www.ajouterstore.com/products/lukes-diner-stars-hollow-handmade-vegan-soy-wax-candle?prproddstrat=usedescription&prrrecid=1abeb1fcd&prrrecpid=6953304817859&prrrefpid=6966475882691&prr_seq=uniform - sorry for the long link.

21yo

hair care edit from Cult
silk pillowcase
Lego big wave
flowerbomb perfume set
adventure couples book (to share with partner, he has his own separate gifts too)
Lined crocs (from her sisters)
bumbum spray & cream

and that’s it so far!! She wanted the tasman uggs but I couldn’t find them anywhere so she’s going to check when she’s away on holiday this week. If she can’t get them I’ll probably just give her the money.
Maybe I’ll grab a hoody & will get the obligatory stocking with some undies, chocs candle etc.
Doesn’t feel like much, but she’s left home and has a good career - she buys herself whatever she likes which can be frustrating when it comes to gifting! Dh and I agreed to spend less on our dc as they get older but I find it really hard.

17yo dd I have

clothes (white fox, adanola, desvu)
trainers
Good skin care
tan stuff
some good make up bits
Board game
projector & fire stick
Shark styler (got this on a great deal, would have bought for dd1 but she bought herself one!)
crocs
jellycat
stocking with undies, chocs etc
may buy Ugg slippers too (she’s got little feet so can fit in kids sizes)

Teddy PJs from Marks and Spencer or PJs from FatFace. Jelly cat cuddly in the shape of her favourite thing e.g. cauliflower (not joking - they have everything) FatFace do nice fine jewellery also. Long scarves with tassels.

I have a 21yo DD

She;s had her Dec 1st Box (yes , I know ) but it means she can use nice new things in the whole month.

Mario Badescu mini gift set
Shower gel
Hair serum
Eye patches (under-eye not pirate)
Eyelash serum mini
Hand/Foot masks ( Christmas Tradition)
Stella McCartney perfume samples (if she likes it them maybe the full size)
Pyjamas
Christmas socks advent calendar

For Christmas ;
Levi jeans
Walking Dead TShirt
Gold Moisssanite earrings
Small jewelery travel case
Spectrum make-up brush set

Shoes and clothes for work but they're not presents , but some nice clothes for her .if she sees something she likes

Suctionplease · 05/12/2023 20:37

Ugg slippers
Canterbury track pants
An urban sweatshirt
Silk/towelling pillow case
Sol de Janeiro spray
Elf primer
Silver necklace

SparklingSparkle · 05/12/2023 20:40

Longchamp bag.

FlyingSquid · 05/12/2023 20:42

A jumper and some of her favourite surprisingly pricey drawing pens.

Umm ... That's it so far. And she's the easy one to buy for. The others are getting sweet FA at this rate.

I was quite chuffed with it, worth £150 I think and got it for £30 on Black Friday, wish I’d bought more!

My 20yo loves her expensive make up but has a limited budget so I usually give her a MECCA gift voucher. She wants a pair of good sunglasses this year but this obviously makes more sense for us as it is Summer here.
