Best wellness gift for best friends
Best mug for best friends
Finding a best friend gift that truly rewards your bff is one of the *most* satisfying feelings in the world. While pals tend to be easier to shop for than some loved ones — say, your mum, dad or incredibly fussy sister — you might still end up questioning whether you've chosen the right present to show them you really care about their recent promotion, birthday or are thinking about them this upcoming Valentine's Day (or Galentine's Day, depending on your preference).
Because even if your special friend already knows how much you adore them, proven in that they're always there for you through thick (breakups) and thin (dancing on the tables at bottomless brunch), you still want to remind them on the regular with a unique, thoughtful gift. Say, a funky friendship bracelet, cosy pyjamas or a sleep mask to enhance her nightly kip.
Cue: A little bit of inspiration, just to make certain you won’t regress to thoughts of a gift card. Below we've rounded up the very best personalised gifts, bag charms, home decor, the best gift hampers and skincare gift sets that work as perfect birthday gifts or Christmas presents for your very good pal. Essentially, expect an onslaught of brownie points.
From the finest fragrances to wear-forever jewels.
