Hello beauties!

 

I have a very dear friend that is going through a super rough time. I am putting together a beauty/pamper basket for her! She deserves something nice.


She is not fussy and will be tickled pink with a gift. I'm sure we will cry when I give it to her. We are big crybabies!


Any ideas?

 

Thanks everyone!

Face masks, you can buy individually packaged ones at CVS.

Hand cream and foot scrub

A neutral pink nail polish and some cuticle oil or cream.

Body lotion in her favorite scent if you know what that is, or just get unscented

Lip balm

I would also add a bar of goat milk soap. Doesn't have to be Beekman, I have purchased the large bars in other brands in the Marshalls beauty section and they're nice.

Before giving a spa card be sure she would like that. It's not my thing and my friends know it but one gave me a gc like that years ago. I passed it on to someone else.

@Franklinbell Maybe a lightly tinted lip gloss?

Agree, very sweet of you.

 

I like something that pulls my hair out of my face when face cleaning. Terry headbands or hair clips.

Thank you for great suggestions! I'm gonna need a bigger basket! I think I'll get a big box of chocolates for us to share!

Re: Help with a beauty basket

I was going to say a pretty light lip gloss too because it's easy to put on and it lifts your spirits a little.

A little plant in a pot that is super easy to take care of-plants are beautiful and should be in a beauty boxWoman Happy

and how about some lovely Dickinson's rose witch hazel-it's so refreshing and soothing. And include some nice cotton pads the ones with a little exfoliating on one side. 

And I always think an encouraging and supportive card is nice. It will probably make her cry but in a good waySmiley Happy

And maybe a pretty hair tie or scrunchy if she has longer hair,

or a soft headband if she has short hair.

A book with encouraging sayings (or prayers if religious) each day and or a fiction book she would like.

 

That is so nice of youHeart
