Christmas Gift Guide: For Her | Under £10
Yes, it's that time of year again! Who's excited for Christmas? I know I am, hence why I'm getting this post up nice and early for you all. I did one of these a couple of years ago, and it grew to be one of the most popular posts on my blog throughout it's whole three year history. It was even on my 'Popular Posts' side bar in JUNE, so I thought I'd be kind and od another, up-to-date one for you all.
I've kept it as 'Under £10' again this year because my demographics show that girls between the ages of 11 and 18 are the most frequent visitors to my blog, so still in school or sixth form, I thought I'd fill this Gift Guide with more affordable present ideas instead of more high end ones. If you'd like me to do another one, but featuring more expensive products, please do let me know and I'll see what I can do for you :)
Whether you're buying for your mum, sister, niece, cousin, girlfriend, I think at least one of these things should suffice as a nice stocking filler or even as a few presents under the tree.
I hope this is useful, enjoy :)
I love to buy lots of little things that you can put in a care package or something, perhaps buy a cute little box to put them all in and decorate it with confetti and tissue paper, add some little Celebrations to the box of goodies as well, it wouldn't be Christmas without a bit of chocolate now would it? ;)
I actually bought a lot of the smaller items for my sister, as she can prove rather difficult to buy for, don't worry, my family don't read my blog so have no idea what I have planned for them this year. Bearing in mind these are gifts you can buy that come in under £10, this isn't all I've got them for Christmas this year :)
Product: Wild Exotica Roller-Ball Perfume
From: Primark
Price: £2
This looked like a nice idea for someone just starting out with perfumes and not body sprays, it also smells pretty good as well. I'm not going to lie, I was a bit apprehensive about buying a £2 perfume from Primark because it was so cheap, but I was pleasantly surprised by the smell so I risked it. I have no idea what the staying power is like, although it is an eau de toilette so the smell might not hang around for too long to be honest but oh well, it makes for a nice stocking filler, and would be the perfect gift for someone just starting to experiment with perfumes and body mists.
Product: Sweet Snuggles Hand Lotion with Nail File
From: Superdrug
Price: £1 (Was £3)

This is a lovely idea, the little hand lotion is so cute, I have no idea what it smells like, but it looks like it could smell rather nice. Complete with a tiny little nail file it makes the perfect gift for someone constantly on the go, or even for someone still at school or college, the hand cream wouldn't take up much room in one's handbag, and nor would the nail file.
Product: PS Intense Lash Eye Lashes
From: Primark
Price: £1
Now, if you're of the 'night out' or 'clubbing' age, these would make the perfect gift for your friends, coming in at just £1 you can't go wrong, with plenty of different effects to choose from, you could get a selection, especially if you have a friend you know loves to wear fake eye lashes, it makes a wonderful little stocking filler and would complement anything else you decided to get them :)
Product: Collection 7 Day Wear Nail Polish (Lady in red)
From: Superdrug
Price: £1.99
Link to Buy: Click Here
I got this for my mum as she loves to paint her nails now, I thought I'd get her one in this nice reddish colour, she doesn't own any colour like it already and I thought it would be a nice little edition to her collection, if you're not on the budget for Essie (although it does come in at under a tenner) or OPI, something like this should suffice.
Again, I bought these little things to put in a sort of care package, to go in a little box or bag with a collection of multiple handy things that a 15 year old might need, apart from the 'Leafy & Lovely' hand cream, because I had planned to give her the 'Sweet Snuggles' one complete with a nail file as well. But she will be getting the bubble bath and little roll on deodorant :)
Product: Radox Feel Enchanted Bath Soak
From: Super Drug
Price: 96p (Was £1.99)

Product: Nivea Invisible Roll On Deodorant
From: Superdrug
Price: £1.03 (Was £2.09)

Product: Leafy & Lovely Summer Meadow Hand Lotion
From: Superdrug
Price: £1 (Was £3)
Link to Buy: Click Here
Once again, these are going in a little care package, not all for my sister by the way as I've got her something on the more pricey side as well xD, but nonetheless, it's a fantastic way to give prezzies without a hefty price tag, if you bought say six or seven little items they can all easily come in at well under a tenner, perfect for friends who love to pamper themselves or even as a thoughtful little Secret Santa gift, you never know when little things like this will come in handy, you may even find it useful to do the same thing for birthdays, and, here's a hint, it doesn't necessarily have to be for the ladies in your life either, you could put something similar together for your dad, brother or boyfriend, it's up to you :)
Product: Radox 'Berry Blast' Shower Gel
From: Superdrug

Product: Argon Oil Mini Collection
From: Sainsburys
Price: £3.50 (Was £5)
Link to Buy: Click Here
I saw this in Sainsburys and it looked very interesting, I mean, Argon Oil based products for your SKIN? That sounded amazing, so I bought it thinking it would be a nice present for someone this year, the sizes are good in terms of practicality, they'd sit nicely in your shower without taking up too much room, but they're also a handy size in terms of traveling as well, and also the fact that it was on sale is also a massive plus, I do believe there was some money off it as well.
Product: Baylis & Harding 5 Piece Gift Set
From: Superdrug
Price: £5 (Was £10)
Link to Buy: Click Here
Again, this looked like a nice little gift set, there are five different products in there, and, like the last gift set I showed you, they're the perfect travel size. Including a shower cream, two body washes, a hand cream and a body lotion. It's such a handy little kit to have, it's in the scent 'Midnight Fig & Pomegranate', which I think is ideal for Winter. Just a quick warning though, it is under 'For Him' on the website, although I think it's part of the 'For Her' range, everything else in this scent is 'For Her', that and it comes with a hand cream and it was in the 'For Her' section in the shop, perhaps it's a website glitch? Ignore it and don't panic :)
Product: Burgundy Turtle Neck Jumper
From: Primark
Price: £6
I love to buy my sister clothes, especially Winter ones, she can rock the turtle neck and I'm dead jealous, because I wish I could rock a turtle neck too, but it's just not going to happen. I saw this one in Primark the other day and just had to get it. They had them in many other colours, not just in this berry toned Maroon shade, it's a rather slim fitting jumper, but it is very stretchy so ideal for layering and just generally being cosy on a cold Winter's day.
Product(s): Scoop Neck Stretch T-Shirt (Long Sleeves) (x2)
From: Primark
Price: £3.00 each
I thought I'd buy some long sleeved tops, again perfect for layering either under a cosy jumper or over the top of a vest during the transitional weather. Perfect for pretty much anyone as these tops come in many different colours and designs, you can also choose from a variety of neck cuts, sleeve lengths and fittings, again, these are stretchy and therefore a slim fit, unlike the 'Basic' range which are basically normal fitting T-Shirts. They're the perfect price so you could get multiple ones at once at a fraction of the cost of a single top from say, Zara. They also make for the perfect stocking filler if you're struggling to decide what else to get.
Product: Floral T-Shirt
From: New Look
Price: £4 (Was £10)
I bought this in the sale from New Look, their sale items are great at the moment, so head on over to the sale rail next time you pop in, you may pick up a nice top like this one for half of what it would have cost at full price, you're getting the quality of a £10 top for just £4, shop around and be savvy, head on over to the sale sections every now and again and pick up a bargain.
Right, so that's my 'Gift Guide for Her' done for this year, will you be looking into getting any of these products for the ladies in your life this year? Or will you check out what else these places have on offer this Christmas time? Good luck with your Christmas shopping guys, and I will see you Sunday with a brand new blog post for you all :)
