If you’re reading this, you probably are scrambling last minute for some gift ideas.
I say this every year and I mean it ever year, The Body Shop is your go-to place for gifts that are sure to impress. I mean, who doesn’t need soaps, lotions, perfumes, skincare, etc.?
I saved this post for last since The Body Shop really is a great place for that person on your list that you have no clue what to get them. Well, if that’s the case then don’t worry, I got you and compiled a list a must-have holiday items that will sure to please even the hardest person to buy for.
Just keep reading…
Almond Milk & Honey Festive Picks
I’m all about gifting sets since it allows your gift receiver to try out the whole collection, and it gives them an assortment of items to use for different purposes. The Body Shop has a ton of great gift sets this season that are filled with different items in a line and the Almond Milk and Honey Festive Picks set (on sale for C$21, regular C$28!) is no different.
This set is filled with five items from the Almond Milk and Honey collection, which is geared towards dry, sensitive skin. Included in the gift box is the Shower Cream (250ml), Body Butter (50ml), Cleansing Bar (100g), Hand Cream (50ml) and bath lily. All of these products (aside from the bath lily obvi) are enriched with Community Trade organic almond milk from Spain and are such a joy to use, whether you are lathering them up, slathering them on, or just giving them a whiff.
Calming Camomile Cleanse Kit
For those who wear makeup everyday, the Calming Camomile Cleanse Kit (C$36) will be right up their alley.
This set opens up to three items that are perfect for washing away all that makeup at the end of the day. Included in here is the Camomile Gentle Eye Make Up Remover (250ml), Camomile Sumptuous Cleansing Butter (90ml), and an Organic Muslin Cloth.
The Camomile cleanser is formulated to gently remove makeup (even the waterproof kind!) and is great for sensitive skin and suitable for contact wearers as well. Start first with the makeup remover and then go in with the cleansing butter and massage into skin. Next, grab the cloth and run it under warm water and gently buff over the skin to remove your makeup. Follow up with the rest of your skincare routine.
Warm Vanilla Festive Sack
This one is one of my favourites.
Open up with holiday-themed sack to find a variety of goodies, all in the brand’s Warm Vanilla scent (it’s to die for!). Each item in here is vegetarian and the range in general is special edition, so if you can still find it (I can’t seem to pull it up online), I would grab it!
Included in here is the Warm Vanilla Shower Gel (250ml), Warm Vanilla Body Butter (50ml), Warm Vanilla Hand Cream (30ml), Warm Vanilla Body Yogurt (200ml), and Warm Vanilla Body Scrub (50ml). Each item is part of the Warm Vanilla collection for 2019 and has a delicious vanilla fragrance which is enriched with vanilla extract from Madagascar.
Merry Treats Body Butter Trio
So far all of these sets you can either gift together or split up, and another great one is the Merry Treats Body Butter Trio (C$15).
This trio of mini body butters is packed with three different scents to keep skin soft, smooth, and nourished all season long. Included in the trio is the Warm Vanilla Body Butter (50ml), Juicy Pear Body Butter (50ml) and Rich Plum Body Butter (50ml). Since these are smaller than their full-size versions, they are great stocking stuffer gifts or even great to toss into your bag for travel as well.
The Rocket Gift Set
For a super cute gift, take a look at the Rocket Gift Set (C$32).
This tin, which looks like Santa’s rocket, opens up to minis of The Body Shop’s most beloved products. Included in here is the Strawberry Shower Gel (60ml), Coconut Shower Cream (60ml), Strawberry Bath Bomb (28g), Coconut Bath Bubble (28g), Strawberry Hand Cream (30ml), and Coconut Hand Cream (30ml).
I think this gift set would be really cute for someone who has small kids. Gift them this reusable rocket tin and they can keep the goodies, whereas the kids can have the fun container. Total win win!
Bath Bomb Party Gift Set
For the bath lover, take a look at the Bath Bomb Party Gift Set.
This ball opens up to a variety of different bath treats and a loofa, which will give you a relaxing bath experience. Included in here is the Mango Bath Bomb (28g), Vanilla Delight Bath Bomb (28g), Strawberry Bath Bomb (28g), Green Tea Bath Bomb (28g), Candied Plum Bath Bomb (28g), Moringa Bath Bubble (28g), and a rainbow bath lily.
These are really cool since you just drop them into your tub and watch them fizzle and foam. This set is great for the bath lover or those looking to unwind after the rush of the holidays.
I can’t find this one in stock online, but check your local store to see if they still have it.
For some great stocking stuffers, The Body Shop also has you covered with smaller gift ideas that are some perfect options as well.
I’ve always been a fan of their headbands and in case you haven’t seen them, they offer up cute little themed ones that really put you in the spirit of the holidays. I have the bunny one from a few years ago and for the holidays they have released a special-edition reindeer version and Santa version.
The Reindeer Headband (on sale for C$3.50) is a soft headband that keeps the hair off your face while you cleanse, do your makeup, or apply a mask. These are so cute to gift to friends and I cannot recommend these enough since they are the perfect little festive topper gift to give your bestie.
Why don’t you also toss in the Live Your Dreams sleeping mask (on sale for C$3.50) while you’re at it?
This mask is perfect for slumber parties and is the cutest little eye mask to wear for a night when you want to get a good night’s rest.
The Body Shop also has a few other fun little stocking stuffer gift ideas like hair ties and barrettes, both of which have positive feminine messages on them.
Finally, if you are still stumped on what to get someone, you really can’t go wrong with lip balm.
I love gifting lip balms to my friends since I personally always have to have a lip balm on me at all times since my lips get dry easily. The Body Shop is always a great stop for these items since they always have the most perfect sets that you can split up.
The Born Lippy Festive Star (C$20) is a magic wand filled with five different flavours of their Born Lippy lip balms.
You can either gift this as is since it’s so cute, or open it up and split it up! Included in the set is the Born Lippy Lip Balms in Strawberry, Raspberry, and Watermelon (there are two of each in Strawberry and Raspberry). Each lip balm is 10ml and keep lips feeling soft, moisturized, and protected against the chilly winter weather.
If you’re still stumped, The Body Shop has a ton of other great gift options this season. A lot of their items are actually on sale right now, so you can definitely score a great deal on a last-minute gift.
Will you be popping by The Body Shop today for any last-minute holiday gifts?
