The Best Fragrance Christmas Gifts
The Yves Saint Laurent Libre Eau de Parfum is a classic when it comes to the perfect Christmas fragrance gift. It features vibrant top notes of Tangerine, Neroli and aromatic Lavender exhilarate, revealing a sun-drenched heart of Jasmine and radiant Moroccan Orange Blossom. A creamy base of Madagascan Vanilla and White Musks wraps the composition in effortless sophistication.
JOY by Dior Eau de Parfum Intense is a beautiful fragrance with a radiant burst of flowers and a joyful trail of exultant floral notes. The dazzling light of juicy Citrus blends with the colourful shine of Grasse Rose and Jasmine, heightened by an enveloping woody echo of Sandalwood tinged with Vanilla. You know what they say - if you adore her, Dior her.
Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Eau de Parfum Intense is an ambery woody fragrance with an extreme character. The fragrance is structured around an overdose of patchouli, warmed by an ambery accord of Vanilla absolute and Tonka Bean. A heart of rose and jasmine and the contrasting freshness of citrus add their notes to write this powerful score. It's a beautiful classic that will always be a winner.
Tom Ford's affection for London inspired this scent, and it encapsulates warmth, elegance and sensuality all in one fragrance. Featuring strong notes of tonka bean, vanilla, cocoa, dry fruit and sweet wood sap, it's a gorgeous scent for a loved one this festive season.
Launched in 2010, Aventus by Creed has quickly become one of the most popular fragrances for men. It's a cool, smokey scent with layers of fruity and woody notes, so it’s extremely versatile for everyday wear. If your loved hasn't got it already, this is what I'd recommend.
Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male is a light eau de toilette with an unconventional interpretation of masculinity, thanks to the inclusion of sweet, sensual vanilla combined with lavender – an unforgettable modern, fougere amber scent.
The Best Haircare Christmas Gifts
Whether you like it or not, the Dyson Airwrap will always be a staple for festive gift giving. 2024 has seen some gorgeous colourways released, including the stunning Strawberry Bronze and Blush Pink. Check out our full review for more information on why it is (and always will be) the perfect gift.
The 2-in-1 Contouring Iron Pro is the latest straightener from Cloud Nine, making it the perfect gift for any haircare enthusiasts. It makes curling and straightening easier and faster, especially with its iconic temperature control and signature Revive Mode.
Impress your loved one this Christmas with Shark Beauty's brand new high-velocity hair dryer, the SpeedStyle Pro Flex. This only came out a few months ago, meaning it features Shark's new Scalp Shield Mode. We also love the colourway – isn't it gorgeous?
This is probably one of my favourite hair stylers I've reviewed this year, so I have to recommend it. The Bellissima Italia Prodigy is a ceramic-coated air styler that gives Dyson a run for its money, especially when it comes to the best Airwrap alternatives. All I'll say is that I'd be chuffed with this if it was under the tree!
Featuring a function Ionic Jet technology, the Revamp Progloss Airstyle has four heat and two speed settings for the utmost control including a cool shot. There's also a Cool Shot feature to set your style, ensuring uniformity and an even optimum styling in seconds. It's also suitable for various hair textures and lengths, so you can't really go wrong.
Engineered for ultimate styling control, the ghd Helios Professional Hair Dryer is the lightest and fastest of ghd’s range. As air enters through the patented etched grille of the hairdryer, its brushless motor delivers a 75mph airflow while an internal impeller reduces air turbulence. A wonderful gift from a wonderful brand!
The Best Skincare Christmas Gifts
It seems a bit cheesy to say ‘it’s a spa day every day’, but that’s exactly what the Theraface Pro offers. With three percussive heads and three kinds of LED light, it lifts, firms, clears, contours and more, overall helping to reduce mild to moderate inflammatory acne. Read our full review to find out more.
The SENSSE LED Mask is designed to improve a multitude of skin concerns, including improving blood circulation, reducing wrinkles, stimulation collagen growth to improving age spots and skin imperfections. It's also really affordable compared to market alternatives.
The STYLPRO Beauty Fridge keeps all essential products chilled, fresh, and ready for everyday use. From night creams, sheet masks and moisturisers to nail polish, makeup and sprays, your beauty products can now stay cool, collected and fresher for longer.
The Foreo Luna 3 facial cleanser is both a cleanser and massager in one, meaning it's great for those who appreciate a skincare routine. It's also app-connected, meaning it remembers your last chosen setting and gets on with cleansing even if you don’t have your phone to hand. It's also available in a variety of colours.
Another skincare gadget I'd recommend is the award-winning BeautyBio GloPro. It combines red light technology and pulsing stimulation with 0.3mm microneedles to help your skincare absorb up to 200 times more effectively and reveal fuller, smoother skin in just 60 seconds. Big thumbs up!
The new Shark CryoGlow is arguably one of the most exciting skincare tech products from 2024. It's designed for all skin tones and textures, and is the UK’s first LED face mask that uses cold therapy technology to de-puff under eyes in just five minutes. I'm currently reviewing this so more information will be revealed shortly.
The Best Fitness Christmas Gifts
If you're looking to buy for a fitness fanatic, Jabra's new sports earbuds are a great choice. They're sweatproof, waterproof and workout-proof, and not to mention, incredibly comfortable. I've been using these for a few weeks now and love the way they feel, so I highly recommend.
Offering a balance between relaxation and recovery, the Homedics Pro Physio Massage Gun is the ideal self-care companion. With three intensity settings and six interchangeable massage heads, you get a lot for your buck, and it's a firm favourite of ours at T3.
Help your loved one take on a stress-free sense of calm with the Gaim Yoga Mat. It's bound to be a success with any pilates or yoga lover, and it comes in a gorgeous array of tonal colours, meaning there's a pick for everyone. I personally love the Sandstone shade.
The YETI Rambler comes with the YETI MagSlider Lid, the only drink lid that uses the power of magnets to keep your water, beer or favourite drink on lock. With a huge array of colours and sizes available, it's a must-have for anyone who likes a drink on-the-go.
If you've got an avid hiker in your life, why not treat them to some new boots? This set from Danner features a natural shearling lining for added warmth, meaning they're great for colder environments. Whilst these are designed for women, Danner has a great men's selection as well.
The Owala bottle is another trend from 2024, especially since going viral on TikTok. It's the perfect gift if you're not really sure what to buy, especially as there are loads of colourways available. What makes it special is its patented FreeSip spout with a built-in straw that lets you sip or swig.
The Best Wellness Christmas Gifts
Designed with the same technology found in the brand's award-winning sleep products, Simba's new slippers are filled with a specialised gel that's designed to gently massage specific pressure points, aid blood circulation and reduce tension. The collection is available for both men and women and comes in three unique styles, but I personally love the Stormur design.
The Ordo Sonic Lite Toothbrush has been designed to offer the same features as the Sonic+ toothbrush, but at an even more affordable price. Available in 6 iconic colours, it ensures effective plaque removal and promotes healthier, whiter teeth. It's a perfect gift for those looking to brighten up their routine and their smile.
Forget wake up lights – the Roberts Revival Rest has taken over as the top bedside companion. Combining timeless style with modern functionality, it works as both a radio and an alarm clock. Equipped with DAB, DAB+ and FM radio, dual alarms, sleep timer and a USB charging port, it covers all your morning needs. Its adjustable dimmer also ensures a perfectly tailored wake-up experience, and don't get me started on this duck egg colourway.
The Loop Quiet 2 Plus earplugs minimise sound by up to 27 dB with their new double-stacked ear tips. Coupled with their upgraded fit and improved comfort factor, they can be worn all day and night to muffle unwanted noise and minimise distractions. Read our full review to see if they could be a good fit for your loved one.
A sophisticated health wearable, the Oura Smart Ring is designed to provide users with detailed health insights. It continuously monitors heart rate throughout the day and during workouts, offering real-time data and post-activity insights. If your loved one likes to keep on top of their health and wellbeing, why not really spoil them and get them something special?
You can't really go wrong with a new duvet, especially if your loved one is in need of a new one. This choice from Panda has that sought-after ‘down feather feeling’ using organic bamboo, making it highly breathable, hypoallergenic and thermoregulating. It's also machine washable, and will dry naturally in half the time of regular duvets.
The Best Style Christmas Gifts
This gorgeous Wolf Blake single watch roll is perfect for keeping your treasured timepiece secure, or for gifting to the watch lover in your life. It's crafted in a soft, high quality black leather and boasts an ultra-suede lining on the inside. It's also reduced at Beaverbrooks from £79 to £27, so take a look whilst you still can.
The Carl Friedrik Day-to-Day backpack is one of the best backpacks you can buy today, making it a great gift for a loved one. It's made from premium quality leather, and comes with multiple internal and external pockets for plenty of storage and space. Read our full review to find out more.
The Barbour Debossed Logo Bifold Wallet is a smart option for carrying monetary essentials. It features a coin pocket to the inside for added security, and boasts classic tartan trims and bold branding to the front. This is also a really great price for such an established brand, so make sure to grab one before stock runs out.
The Best Grooming Christmas Gifts
Voted as our best electric shaver, the Braun Series 9 Pro+ is labelled as a shaving game-changer, delivering exceptional closeness and comfort. It features five advanced ProShave elements, including the ProLift Blade, designed to cut more efficiently with each stroke. It's also often on sale, so it's definitely worth taking a look if you're working with a budget.
Say goodbye to tweezer torment with the BaByliss Super-X Metal Series Nose, Ear & Eyebrow Trimmer. This BaByliss nose and ear trimmer has bevelled blades to make trimming nice and gentle. When you need a brow touch-up you can easily swap in the eyebrow trimmer head. There are also two different combs to get the length that suits you best.
The Philips Series 9000 Wet & Dry Electric Shaver is an intelligent AI shaver that provides top of the range skin comfort. It gives feedback on shaving pressure to protect skin, whilst adapting uniquely to the face. Also included is a charging stand, travel case, so it's great if your loved one is constantly on the go.
The Best Kitchen Christmas Gifts
If you're looking to buy for a tea or coffee lover, the Ember Mug 2 is great. It allows you to set an exact drinking temperature for 1.5 hours, so your coffee is never too hot, or too cold. You can even use the Ember app to set the temperature, customise presets or receive notifications when it's ready to drink from.
This is also a must-have for hot chocolate fanatics. The Salter Chocolatier is a more affordable version of the Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser, and we couldn't recommend it more. It can create hot or cold barista-grade drinks, and works really well with either dairy or plant-based milk.
Stand mixer's will be a popular gifting choice seeing as we've just come to the end of The Great British Bake Off, and this option has the iconic 1950’s retro style we have come to know and love from Smeg. It has a 4.8 litre capacity and there are 10 speed settings to choose from.
