It’s only eleven days until Christmas, and if you’re still looking for ideas for presents for the ladies in your life then check out my gift guide for pressies you can buy for under €25!
1. Crabtree & Evelyn Hand Therapy Trio – Boots/Arnotts €16.00
Three yummy Crabtree & Evelyn ultra-moisturising hand creams in their most popular fragrances, that all include shea butter and macadamia nut oil to keep your hands soft and gorgeous. A perfect stocking filler for the lady in your life!
2. Yankee Candles – Boots – €24.99
What girl doesn’t love a nice smelly candle? There isn’t much room to go wrong with Yankee scents, they’re all pretty lovely & I know a lot of female friends have a particular fondness for Yankee Candles because burning them produces such a strong smell that lasts for ages.
3. Zara Perfumes – Zara – €8.95
For a high-street brand, the Zara perfumes are pretty impressive. They are animal cruelty free (yay), last for quite a while depending on which one you choose & are great dupes for more expensive smellies like Coco Mademoiselle and Flowerbomb! And with prices starting from at about €8 for a 50ml bottle, you can’t really go wrong! I particularly love the oriental one.
4. O.P.I Nail Lacquers – Debenhams – €13.50
I don’t know about anyone else but O.P.I nail lacquers make me feel very sophisticated and special. but I don’t regularly buy myself bottles of this brand because of the price. However when I do buy a bottle I cherish it and use it when I need a pick me up, so a bottle or two of these in classic colours like Black Cherry Chutney or Cinnamon Sweet will go definitely go down well as a stocking filler!
5. Personalised Phone Case – Vistaprint – From €16.99
This one is my favorite idea, I have a million phone cases that aren’t very personal and everyone else has too. They also don’t last very long as they’re usually cheap and cheerful flimsy cases. So a personalised protective case is something I’d love to be given. Preferably something with cute kittens on it, or a sloth. Or both. You can create what ever case you want online and add images, text etc as you see fit.
6. Luxury Cocoa Brown Gift Set – Tesco – €19.99
It’s a well-known fact that most Irish girls love their tan, and since it came on the market Cocoa Brown has become one of the most popular tans in Ireland (and the U.K. too)! So a luxury gift set for Christmas is the perfect gift to have the females in your life moisturised and tanned for the nights out over the festive period and is sure to earn brownie points.
7. Jewellery – Forever 21 – From €4.00
If you want to get some pretty glitzy stocking fillers, Forever 21 is a great place to start. They have gorgeous pieces for very reasonable prices. I especially love their faux gemstone drop earrings. Pick up a few stacking rings, a matching set of earrings and a bracelet and you’re set.
These are just a few ideas for presents, mainly based on items that I would be happy to receive personally. If you have any ideas for presents let me know, I hope these help if you’re stuck for ideas!
