Meg’s Gift Ideas
“I love buying gifts for my family and friends. It gives me such pleasure finding something that I know they will love. But I often feel bad about giving skin products as a gift, almost as if it is a lazy option, given that I have a skincare business! But the times that I give something else, they say’ ‘Hey, what about my skincare??’
This year I am hosting Christmas, and will be putting gift bags on the table, kind of like a bonbon.
The ladies will receive a gentle cleanser, Osmosis MD Cleanse and a night cream, Osmosis MD Nourish. The men will be receiving the Aspect Purastat5 cleanser along with the Aspect Sun On the Go SPF 50.
There are a few teenage girls in our family, and I know that they will love the Three Warriors Tanning Mousse and Tanning Mitt that I’ll be giving them.
These are small and reasonably affordable gift ideas that will give great joy!”

Julie’s Gift Ideas
“I’ve decided this year, skincare is the ONLY gift I’m giving anyone. It’s always appreciated, and because I only buy for very immediate family, I know what will suit them.
I started buying the Aspect Clear Skin Kit for my teenage niece last year and she absolutely loves it, so it’s an easy decision there. I know what my Mum and daughters like, so they’re easy too. And I’m thinking this year I will get my son-in-law, who is THE most difficult person to buy for, some skincare too, what do you think? He has really good skin, like most guys in their 30’s it seems, but I’m sure he would appreciate some fine quality products. He only ever has the best of the best in anything and everything, (hence the difficulty to buy for) so I can’t go wrong with any of our products. Think I might go with the Medik8 CSA Philosophy Discovery Kit For Men It’s presented in a nice black box with three of their biggest sellers, two serums and a moisturiser with sunscreen.
Yeah, I’m happy with that, hey, shopping done!… Well, at least in my head, I feel so organised, which for me, a few weeks out from Christmas, is absolutely unheard of.
Oh, and another thought, for those of you who are having difficulty for a gift idea, why not go for the Aspect Glow Kit, it has four great products very suitable for both men and women. Mmm, maybe I should take my own advice and get him that instead? Geez, I’m such a ditherer, but not to worry, I’ll make a decision… true to form, probably on Christmas Eve, I can’t possibly be too organised, it just wouldn’t feel like Christmas if I was.”

Phillipa’s Gift Ideas
“I have two words for you. Sheet Mask. They’re an extra treat that makes you feel special! Plus they fit into luxe square cards really well… kinda like a ‘bonus’ surprise. Very light to post, and not necessarily something they use every week. I figure my daughter’s teachers will really appreciate sitting back with a sheet mask during their well earned break!”

Megan’s Gift Ideas
“I always say, skin care is the best gift. When you think about it, your loved one will be thinking of you every morning and evening as they apply their luxurious and self-indulgent routine. When they look in the mirror and see their glowing, amazing reflection- they’ll think of you!!I have a go to list when it comes to gifts. This list is made up of the products I think people enjoy using, see change in their skin condition and appearance, and products they wouldn’t normally splurge on for themselves.
My favourites are:
Any skincare in a Pack or Kit form. Aspect Dr tend to create amazing packs that include smaller sized product, but have perfect combinations to cover all bases. For example, the Essential Kit contains Mild Clean cleanser, Vitamin B and C serums plus Resveratrol moisturiser. This combination will see your loved one’s skin COMPLETELY change. They will be so happy with their new skin and be incredibly grateful for you introducing them to a whole new routine.
The Glow Kit is my second favourite Kit. Also from Aspect, it contains a Illuminating Polish (their skin will immediately glow) Probiotic mask, hand and body cream and a hydrating lip balm. If all these products were applied at once, your friend or family member will be the glowing envy of everyone who walks past them.
Added bonus, kits always come in a beautiful box which makes them look so beautiful when gift wrapped.
My next choice would be the products that bring instant gratification when using. Products like Osmosis MD Polish, an enzyme mask which removes all dead layers of dry dull skin, leaving beautiful fresh, tight glowing new skin. Societe’ Rejuvenating Peptide mask which is a soothing gel sheet mask. Skin is plump and dewy as soon as the mask is peeled off and Osmosis MD Enrich night cream. The worlds most luxurious, and nourishing night cream ever created. You wake to dewy, hydrated and nourished skin after every use! 😊
Don’t be afraid to give just one product as a gift. Everyone knows how expensive good skin care is! It sometimes feels strange to give just a Vitamin A serum, or just a cleanser on it’s own, but remember that people these days understand the importance of skincare and sometimes the budget just doesn’t cater for this. Skin care will always be appreciated.”
