Skin Care Gifts – Do or Don’t?

I think it’s important, but if you’re going there, you have to be very thoughtful with the gift.

a long time ago in a galaxy far awayI read somewhere that if you’re going to give a gift, chances are, if it’s a gift you’d like to receive, you’re on the right track.

I would absolutely love the gift of thoughtful skin care, so it’s one of the things i love to give people!

But it’s not like I’m packing bottles of the Kate Somerville Anti-Bac Acne Treatment, though, LOL! I know most people rave about their skincare products, so I try to make skincare gifts that I think they would like or at least want to try.

My final gift was a Laneige lip mask. Not only do I love it and use it every single day, but I feel like dry lips are pretty much a universal problem, so it’s one of those nice little extras that everyone can appreciate. If I have a friend for a birthday or someone I want to thank you for, this is one of my favorite gifts.

If I know the gift recipient has a very specific skin care regimen that limits the skin care they use on their face, I would try to give them an indulgent gift of body care, like a luxurious hand or body cream that they may never have purchased for themselves.

Of course, I always include the gift receipt so they can return it, and I try to make it easy for them by buying it from a store I know they can get to easily.

What about you? How do you feel about giving skincare gifts?
