You don’t have to be a full blown beauty junkie to love these body products. I’ve created this gift guide containing some of my favourite body gifts for both him and her. Not only is it good for our well being and mental health to take care of our bodies but we all love fab body products from razors, to balms to keep ourselves feeling on top.
Body Products For Her
Women’s Razor
I’ve recently spoken about how much I’ve been blown away by the quality and standard of the products and razor from FFS. so without a doubt this has got to be my no.1 pick for women’s hair removal. Whether you’re buying a gift or treating yourself, these gift sets are gorgeous.
The full set containing the razor, replacement blades, blade protector, shave cream, balm and scrub is only £27. This makes a fantastic gift with FREE fully customisable engraving available. You can find out more of my opinions on the whole range here.
You may also want to check out the smaller gift set containing; the coveted fully customisable razor handle with FREE engraving (worth £6), 4 replacement blades. A blade protector, shower hook, travel pouch and the award winning shave cream for just £18. (pictured below)
Exfoliating Body Scrub
If you’re trying to achieve silky smooth pins for your christmas night out or just want to pamper yourself an exfoliating scrub is something I love to add to my routine. It it difficult for me to pick just one favourite body scrub so i’m including two.
The first is a classic from Dove. Dove are a beauty brand everyone knows and loves. Mainly because their range is so kind to skin. The product I am going to recommend is the body scrub with pomegranate seeds. The scrub smells amazing and isn’t drying only trouble is that it leaves a lot of seeds at the bottom of the bath that you need to wash away. This scrub is only £5.99 and exclusive to Superdrug. They also have an awesome set with the body wash included for just £6 for christmas.
The second is a similar price and from the incredible friction free shaving. This scrub is a new addition to my body care stash and it wont be leaving any time soon. This scrub has slightly less harsh scrub pieces in the cream. I would say this is perfect for those with a more sensitive and gentle skin type. Find out more of my opinions here. This retails at £6 and is in the above razor gift set or can be purchased as a one off.
Body Butter
Over the year I have been impressed by a number of body butters but there is one that stands out above them all and surprisingly it is probably the least expensive too. This is the righteous butter from soap and glory. This is one of the best sellers from soap and glory and when you use it, it becomes quickly apparent why. The balm is included in multiple gift sets from the brand at a range of price points from £5 for both the body butter and scrub through to £60 for a huge selection of full size products. As always, it is still available as a stand alone product for just £10 for 300ml.
For Him
Mens Razor
It’s not just the ladies who like to remove their hair and look in top shape during the festive season. Obviously men love it too. Male grooming is a fast growing industry and is clearly becoming more and more popular. Not all men like to be clean shaven either so I will be suggesting two one for those who like to be clean shaven and those who like to dry shave.
I have taken advice from my boyfriend for these suggestions, as you can imagine I’m not well up on what makes a good mens razor. But his no.1 pick is the Gillette Mach 3 Turbo. He has been using this same razor for well over a year now and is his go to razor of choice. Provide a close and smooth shave every time. This time of year is a great time to bag a good deal and this one is a great choice. The razor and 11 refill blades for just £20. You can’t go wrong and makes a good stocking filler for those men you’re stuck to buy for.
For those men who like to dry shave and shape their facial hair there are some great choices out there. These razors can be quite pricey but make a great gift for those who like to tame their hair whether it is for the face or body. This phillips Oneblade does it all for £56.99 but during these black friday deals is selling at just £27.36. You don’t want to miss this deal!
Body Wash Products
Body wash is one of the main ways men manage to get that masculine yet fresh smell daily. body wash sets are everywhere this time of year making it the ultimate time to stock up on favourites or try out some new scents and formulas. This gift is also a perfect stocking stuffer.
There are always the most budget friendly choices like the lynx body wash with deodorant set. The similar more sporty selection from FCUK ranging between £5-£8.
There are sets for the more sensitive skin types including some body extras like shampoo from Dove which are at a more medium price range around £9-£10.
Then there are the pricier but more luxury body care sets from brands such as Clarins. Sets span a huge price range suiting all budgets but can include extras such as facial wash and moisture balm. This set is a real steal at just £44 and valued at over £55.
