    1. This outrageously refreshing Rosé Aperitivo by Hotel Starlino that'll keep you front of mind every time they crack it open on a balmy day this summer.

    Hotel Starlino

    Whoever you gift this deliciously bittersweet apéritif to will surely sing your praises all throughout summer for this one. This drink features an irresistible blend of citrus (grapefruit, lemon and orange), thyme and elderflower — creating a botanical symphony that'll make each sip as delightful as the last. To create a spritz with this tastebud-teasing nectar, they can simply top it with moscato or tonic and fresh strawberry. 

    Buy it from Amazon Australia for $34.99.

    2. This mini Candle of Clarity by Myles Gray, which will ensure they're geared up to tackle the new year with a fresh mind.

    Myles Gray

    There's no greater gift than a little spiritual guidance or assistance — and these crystal infused candles are the ultimate gift for anyone who values the power of crystals and affirmations. 

    This candle is infused with amethyst for peace and balance and tigers eye for confidence, self-worth and even a little protection. The scent is also pleasing to the nostrils — with notes of coconut, vanilla, cedarwood and all the other good stuff they'll absolutely want their home and space to smell like. 

    Buy it from Myles Gray for $29.95.

    3. This Wild Jasmine Treats gift set by The Body Shop that'll have them smelling heavenly all throughout the holiday season.

    The Body Shop

    This set includes a fragrance mist and an iconic The Body Shop shower gel, so they can layer up their scents and take on the new year smelling like a floral daydream — and who doesn't want to do that. If flowery scents aren't their jam, The Body Shop has a bunch of different options, so you'll be sure to find one that'll make sense for them. Plus, some of their holiday gift packs are even on sale, so you're kind of being rewarded for procrastinating your Christmas shopping this year.

    6. This Multi Use Everything Balm by Skin Proud that they can use on almost every part of their body for a variety of things.

    They reach deep into your pores to remove makeup and impurities and when you're done using it, just toss it into the wash up to 200 times. You can get the remover cloths in black or white on Amazon, or you can get them in dark red from the Face Halo website.

    10. These under-eye patches, which will finally keep those bags at bay — no cucumbers, cold spoons or tea bags required.

    Amazon

    12. This bag insert that will make it easier to find your things if you're someone who tends to carry a bigger bag.

    Amazon

    We've all thrown a card into our tote, only to realise that we need it to pay for our groceries, which then results in you holding up the entire line while you frantically paw through your stuff to find it. Don't be that person. Get this insert.

    Buy it from Amazon Australia for $14.99 (available in 18 designs).

    13. This bottle of TRUFF Hot Sauce which is the iconic lovechild of truffle oil and hot sauce and will definitely spice up their life.

    Julia Willing/BuzzFeed, Amazon Australia

    Promising review: "As a huge hot sauce fan and a lover of all things truffle (honestly, who isn't?), it's safe to say my interest was piqued when I heard about TRUFF. And let me tell you, this sauce did not disappoint. It is, hands down, the king of condiments. Within three days of opening the WHITE TRUFF, I'm down half a bottle. I have it on everything: Eggs, toasties, pasta, pizza, wraps, burgers, smashed avo. I could write an entire essay on why I think it's so incredible, but you really just need to grab a bottle for yourself, so you can understand."

    —Julia Willing

    Buy it from Amazon Australia for $32.95.

    14. This divine Summer Fridays lip balm in shade Brown Sugar that's the perfect colour for the festive season.

    BuzzFeed

    Promising review: "I'm rarely a coloured lip gal, but when I tell you the CHOKEHOLD this balm has had on me of late — it's life changing. I mean, not really, but consider my hyperbole a signal of just how much I endorse this lippy as your best beauty buy for Christmas."

    —Julia Willing

    Buy it from Mecca for $35.

    15. This 60-day high performance planner, so that they can keep their productivity in check.

    16. This coffee scrub by Caim & Able, which will leave their skin exfoliated and rejuvenated.

    Amazon

    17. This Natio purifying face mask, which includes Aussie Green Clay + Manuka Honey.

    Amazon

    Let’s face it, kicking back with a mask on and prioritising self-care feels rather satisfying. But what’s deeply satisfying is when that face mask smells amazing, thoroughly cleanses, draws out congestion and rejuvenates your complexion in a one-stop shop!

    Buy it from Amazon Australia for $14.95.

    18. This nourishing and downright rejuvenating hand lotion that belongs in every at-home work setup.

    This Australian-made hand lotion is rich with nourishing shea butter, apricot kernel oil and antioxidant-rich vitamin E. Expect a sophisticated, layered fragrance, opening with lemon, blood orange and grapefuit; a middle of crisp apple and jasmine; before giving way to a musk base.

    Promising review: "There are only a few must-have items on my desk to get me through the work day. A shit tonne of crystals (you should always have something from nature to look at, and I can't keep plants alive to save my life), a water carafe, a roll-on essential oils blend, sunscreen (more likely to leave my desk for a lunchtime walk), and this Circa Blood Orange Hand Lotion. 

    After many an hour sitting still, hands exposed to the air-con, it's no wonder many an office worker's hands are dry. This lotion is wonderfully hydrating, and the zesty, bright scent is just the thing needed during the 3pm slump!"

    — Mariela Summerhays

    Buy it from Sephora Australia for $27.

    19. This Hydrating Glow Mist by Naked Sundays that'll ensure you're protected on all your beach days this summer.

    Mecca

    Promising review: "I was a little skeptical about whether a spray-on sunscreen would work — so I decided to test it out with a full day in the pool beneath direct sunlight. Usually after spending the day in the sun my nose and cheeks burn first, but this time my face was completely saved. I did reapply a couple of times throughout the day, but that was just because reapplying is so stinkin' easy. All you have to do is point and spray and you're sorted. Plus, it contains Kakadu plum, hyaluronic acid and watermelon extract, so your skin will be ultra hydrated while you're topping up your SPF." 

    —Hameda Nafiz

    Buy it from Mecca for $29.95.

    20. This Jade Face Roller and Massager that'll smooth, sculpt, and calm their skin, while chilling them the hell out.

    Self-care; sorted, with this dual-headed rose quartz face roller that works a treat for smoothing tired skin and releasing tension in your face, neck and shoulders. It comes with a gua sha scraping tool for all-over body massage, and makes an awesome gift.
