Looking for a good gift for a best friend? Elevate their every day with these 9 gifts for best friends that they probably wouldn’t buy for themselves.
Let’s face it…in our day to day, we aren’t always treating ourselves, so when it comes to gifting, it’s nice to elevate the everyday for the people we love most. When it comes to best friend gifts, I try to keep that concept in mind with little ways to bring a bit of luxury to their lives with gifts they probably wouldn’t buy for themselves.
9 Thoughtful Gifts For Best Friends
Nice Hand Soap – I love this scent from Aesop and it lasts FOREVER. I think the one in my bathroom has been in there a good six months and there is still some left!
Luxury Laundry Detergent – There is nothing better (in my opinion) than climbing into sheets that smell delicious. Sure regular laundry detergent is fine, but washing sheets in luxury laundry detergent just makes each night feel special. This bottle goes a long way, because you only need a cap full for each load.
Olive Oil – This one is for the best friend chef who probably isn’t going to go out and purchase olive oil in a trendy ceramic bottle….but as your best friend, you might. Bonus: This olive oil is delicious and the bottle can easily be refilled.
Jumbo Candle – I buy two of these every year during the annual Black Friday sale and they last me the entire year. There is such a thing as treating yourself sometimes, too.
Matching Pajama Set – What is it about matching pajamas that makes you feel pulled together? I can’t explain it. Read my full review of Printfresh for a special coupon code!
Body Oil – Listen, you can just get any old oil….or you can get this one that smells like a vacation and hydrates your skin. Bonus: The scent lingers longer than any other body oil I’ve tried. Putting it on after a hot shower makes me feel fancy.
Automated Wall Plug-In – Control how much scent you want and when you want it, so you can have your house smelling like all your favorite scents (think Capri Blue and Voluspa) without wasting it when you won’t be home to enjoy it.
Stainless Steel Cryo Sticks – I had these used on my at Toska’s spa in Charlotte for the first time and I knew immediately I needed a pair of my own. That year, I gifted them to everyone on my list. Just trust me!
Heated Mug – My parents gifted us each a heated mug last year for Christmas and it’s changed the way I drink coffee. It’s SUCH a treat to have hot coffee for the full 2 hours the mug stays heated. I cannot say enough good things about these mugs and truly, I have not used a regular coffee mug in nearly a year.
