UPDATE: WHICH WOULD YOU RATHER RECEIVE?

[ Edited ]

I am sending an add on gift to our DIL for her birthday.  I am waivering between an 8 piece variety body cream from Beekman or a 20 piece hand cream variety from Perlier.  She is close to 50 and is an elementary school teacher.

 

If you have any other suggestions, I am open.  I need to get this ordered soon.

 

TIA

UPDATE - WHAT I PURCHASED:

 

So, I had to decide so I could get this ordered for her to receive it on time (HSN).  I got her a 3 piece glass nail file set.  I have these and LOVE them.  I also bought her a hand and cuticle peel from the Beauty Spy.  I added in a large size seasalt olive oil hand cream from Korres.  

 

Thanks for the suggestions and feedback everyone.  I think she will like these items......I know that I would.  She is home for the summer and goes to their community pool alot.  I think she will enjoy having nice looking hands and feet.  Woman HappyWoman Very HappyHeart

I think handcreams would be nice so she could keep a few in her desk at school whereas the body cream would probably be only used at home.

Unless you are sure she enjoys different scents I would be careful to send her scented products. I never had a cream or lotion that I liked the scent.

My personal choice would be the hand creams. 

Not a fan of body creams were I have to stick my fingers in a jar. With the hand creams, they can be conveniently placed so that one is always available like in a purse, car, desk, end table drawer, etc.

As a teacher she probably washes her hands numerous times during the day.  I vote hand cream.

I would prefer Beekman hand cream  instead of Perlier hand cream.
