Gift-giving usually focuses on others; celebrating milestones, expressing love, or bringing a little joy to someone’s day.
But when was the last time you gave a gift to yourself?
Seriously. When did you last wrap up something thoughtful, indulgent, and personal - just for you?
It doesn’t need to be extravagant. A few small things that make you feel cared for, relaxed, and a bit more like yourself is enough. Consider this your cue to build a self care kit, with love, from you, to you.
Here’s what to include:
1. For Soft, Hydrated Lips
Start with a natural lip scrub. Look for one with sugar, cocoa butter, and agave nectar to gently exfoliate, followed by a lip balm like Pink Champagne to nourish and protect. It's a tiny ritual that feels unexpectedly luxurious.
2. For a Sweet Pick-Me-Up
Add something edible like vegan wine gums. Choose ones with flavours like green apple, citrus, or rosewater. They’re sophisticated, fun, and best of all, hangover-free.
3. For a Proper Soak
Peppermint detox bath salts are your new best friend. With a mix of mineral-rich salts, eucalyptus, and spearmint, they help ease tension while leaving your skin feeling refreshed.
4. For Glowing Skin
Stock up on a few sheet masks. Vitmasques does a great range - Aloe for calming, Aqua for hydration, or Charcoal for a deep clean. Pop on a mask in the evening and let your skin reset while you do the same.
5. For That Calming Glow
A good candle can reset the entire mood. Pick one that smells grounding, like cypress, cedarwood, or pine. Add a candle snuffer to help it last longer and keep the air smoke-free.
Bonus: A Thoughtful Note
Write a card. To yourself. It sounds cheesy, but it’s a lovely way to mark the moment and give yourself a little encouragement (or appreciation). We offer handwritten cards with every gift, so why not make this one a personal note from you, to you?
You don’t need a reason to treat yourself. In fact, building a self care kit is reason enough. Start with one or two things you’ll actually use and enjoy, and let it grow from there.
