Okay people – yes it might be October but you know how it is every year – we blink and it’s December and we still haven’t done any of our Christmas shopping yet. We’re all guilty of it, don’t worry. So that’s why I’m here to save you a lot of time, and give you some great gift recommendations of what you could buy this Christmas to treat that special someone.
If you follow me over on Instagram, you will know that I regularly work with LOOKFANTASTIC on posts and stories as I am a Student Ambassador for them. I just want to point out that there is no obligation to post this blog post, and of course all of the products that I am sharing are completely down to my own opinion, and what I think would be great presents for friends, families and loved ones this Christmas.
For those that don’t know, LOOKFANTASTIC is a one stop shop for all things beauty, wellness and self care. I buy all of my make up from there, and it is the most hassle free way of getting all of the products that I need and love. I have chosen to create these guides with LOOKFANTASTIC as they have some great deals on at the moment, and have a great selection of gifts suitable for Christmas!
You can use my code ‘LFSALYDIA’ for up to 20% off these products (*please note some brands will be an exception) so explore them all! I have categorised them into different sections depending on your budget and who you are buying for. I have also pointed out some of my personal faves if you are really stuck and need a little more guidance.
Use the arrows to scroll through the full selections – enjoy!

Luxury Gifts
Fancy splashing out? The NEOM Wellbeing Bundle (ad) would a perfect gift for that special someone who takes pride in their home and loves a little bit of luxury. It has an abundance of great reviews and let’s be honest, who wouldn’t love this as a gift at Christmas. The Jo Malone Candles (ad) are also a great luxurious gift to spoil someone with at Christmas. They last for ages, and their scents are just to die for.
Luxe On A Budget Gifts
Looking for a something a little cheaper, but still thoughtful? LOOKFANTASTIC have an array of luxury gifts on a budget. Linked above are just some of my faves. Tan Luxe (ad) is one of my all time fave tanning brands – their products are so reliable, and perfect to use if you’re a fake tan virgin. I have also recently been loving the This Works Deep Sleep Pillow Spray which is included in this trio bauble of mini sprays (ad). Perfect for the changing seasons and those who struggle to sleep.
Gifts For Him
Of course, I couldn’t miss your fellas out ladies. Although some of them may not admit it, a lot of men love self care just as much as us, so treat them this Christmas! My boyfriend recently started wearing the Tom Ford Noir Extreme (ad) aftershave, and I have to say – it’s an absolute winner. Charismatic and sophisticated – a great scent for the evening. I am also loving this little Aesop set (ad) of hand wash and body balm; a lovely luxurious duo for your man to look after himself with this winter.
My Favourites
And finally, my all time favourites. Of course I had to include gift sets of my favourite brands and the products that I use on a daily basis. This ICONIC London set (ad) is not one to miss – it includes my fave blush and setting spray, and is the ideal gift for a make up lover/guru. The Armani My Way Eau de Parfum (ad) is a scent I absolutely love. I wear it on a daily basis – perfect if the person you are buying for loves sweet, floral and delicate scents. I get so many compliments on it every time I wear it and I always feel so confident with it on. I also love the little travel sized one you get in this set so you can carry it everywhere you go.
I am hoping to create some more gift guides (fashion related) in the next coming weeks. If there are any other gift guides that you would like to see, then feel free to let me know in the comments below!
