For the Mum Who Deserves At-Home R&R

If anyone at home has had a difficult year, it's probably your mother. The Liz Earle Brighter Every Day Collection (£22.12) is the perfect way to tell your mum it's time to treat themselves, especially when they want just 20 minutes away from you and your siblings.

For the Flatmate Who Loves Doing Everyone's Makeup

Before lockdown last spring, this friend was the amateur makeup artist who was often personally requested by your group of mates to contour their faces before a night out. To pay them back for all of those free hours of blending and painting, there's the Benefit Life is a Pretty Party Mascara, Blush & Primer Christmas Gift Set (£28.50). Packed with kit essentials, like blush and mascara, this gift set is sure to meet their expectations — and thank them for all of their help.

For the Tween Cousin Just Starting Secondary School

If you thought your dad who has everything was hard to shop for, prepare for your cousin who just hit puberty. It's their first year in secondary school, they only just discovered what skin care is, and they believe everything cool is to be discovered on — and only on — TikTok, so the odds of getting them a gift they'll actually like are slim. Luckily, the Soap & Glory Original Pink Collec-Tin Christmas Gift Set (£10) exists, and it's just cute and trendy enough for your tween cousin to post it on their Instagram Story.

For the Person Whose Love Language Is a Good Book and a Bath

Self-care to this person is rereading the Harry Potter series while soaking in the tub. Who would've guessed a gift that combines their two favourite things exists? The Harry Potter Gryffindor Bath Fizzer (£4) is probably the only way this friend hasn't shown off their house pride.

For the Person Who Wants to Save the Planet

Admittedly, we all need this type of person in our lives. Not only will they remind us that single-use plastic is unnecessary and easily avoidable, but also that earth-friendly beauty products are often better than their damaging counterparts. In short, the BBC Earth Eco Bathroom Starter Kit (£15) is their ideal gift. This unique set's goal is to reduce bathroom waste, so it'll perfectly fit into your friend's eco-conscious lifestyle. Just don't be surprised if they try to give you the same gift with the hope that you, too, invest in clean beauty.

For the Friend Who Is an Amateur Perfumer

There are two types of people in this world: people who love perfume and people who absolutely never wear it. This friend is the former. In fact, their collection is big enough to pair a scent with every unique outfit they own. So their standards are high, but we know the YSL Black Opium Eau de Parfum Body Gift Set (£78) will not disappoint. It's sexy and iconic, and the bottle is so nice to look at, it doubles as decor. Bottom line: they'll love this gift.

For the Friend Who's a Self-Proclaimed Cinephile

Now that the cinema isn't the best place to spend your Sunday afternoons, this friend decided to dive deep into classic cinema at home, which makes the No7 Wizard of Oz Power of Eyes Collection Christmas Gift Set (£20) the perfect gift.

For the Brother Who You Love to Hate

We take it back: the hardest person to shop for is your brother. The only thing you two have in common is that you share the same parents, but as far as interests go, the last thing you remember them really loving was created in 1994. In other words, go for something safe but satisfying, like the Jack Wills Men Scarf Christmas Gift Set (£25). Scarves are necessary winter accessories, plus the musky fragrance is the perfect size for them to toss onto their dresser or into their gym bag.
