Honoring and spoiling your loves should be an everyday thing, but in real life that’s just not always the case, so having special days that remind us to pay attention and acknowledge those important people in your life is a great thing.
We have fun with gift giving! Paying attention to what your favorite people mention they like or want and fulfilling those wishes is a wonderful feeling, especially when you get it right, and if a gift can delight the whole family, even better!
Since having our son, V-day is a family affair, so there are a few gift ideas here that will delight the whole crew!
1. Royce Chocolate $29.99
Chocolates for Valentine’s Day may be a bit played out, but NOT THESE! Royce “melt in your mouth truffles” are not candy, they are the most decadent experience, Rolls Royce of truffles. Share them with you sweetheart, or a family V-day celebration! Must try flavors (in my opinion, even though they are all SO delicious) are “bitter”dark and “champagne”!
2. Classic Italian Style Espresso Moka Pot $19.99
I read somewhere that, contrary to popular belief, espresso machines are not the Italian household staple, Moka pots are! And I see why! They make a great pot of coffee, so small and portable they can go with you everywhere, and of course, the cuteness factor! So many good choices out there, this one is a great value and adorable. Maybe pair it with those truffles and have a slow morning?
3. Voluspa Panjore Lychee Candle $37
My absolute favorite candle from VoluSpa! I can never have too many, and the glass is gorgeous, l use it as a vase, decor, and even my make-up storage! All Natural Wicks and Coconut Wax for Clean Burning makes me even happier. And here’s another amazing scent from their collection – Goji Tarocco Orange, I’m obsessed!
4. Organic Bath Bombs $21.99
Soak that stress away with a relaxing Epsom salt bath. We always keep these around for sore muscles, and love the clean ingredients and lovely scents.
5. Osea Undaria Algae Body Oil $60
My after bath ritual, EVERY DAY. Seaweed body oil my skin CAN NOT GET ENOUGH of! This antioxidant-rich skin hydration softens, nourishes and firms like no other. Helps tone and even the skin texture without being greasy, and smells amazing. I love using it even on my face!
6. OSEA Ocean Face Cleanser $15.98
Here’s why this is a V-day pick: it’s a great plant-based cleanser with probiotic I use every day in the 5oz bottle. This cute little .6oz is my favorite, though, because it’s travel perfect. Pair the cleanser with a packed overnight bag, and it’s a perfect romantic gift!
7. RevitaLash Eyelash Conditioner $100
This serum is a miracle worker, it actually works! I don’t do much make-up on a daily basis and the serum makes my lashes long, curly and healthy looking, so refill is my gift to myself!
8. Shark FlexStyle Air Styling & Drying System $229.99
Been using Shark Flex Air for about two months no – can’t sing it’s praises loud enough. I’m using it in ways I didn’t even expect. Outside of the curling feature, which is what I bought it for, I now blow dry my hair after almost every wash. The dryer and brush combo makes it so fast to dry hair with an added styling bonus! I’m even taming my boy’s unruly locks with it! It’s super efficient with 3 heat and 3 volume settings, and the design is gorgeous! Not going to bed with soaking wet hair anymore, and definitely putting it on my travel packing list. It’s a must have hair accessory!!!
9. Ultra Lather Shaving Cream $17.95
Pamper him with a fancy, good for the skin, shaving cream. This one definitely improved post shaving redness and ingrown hair issues, Konstantin likes the fragrance free one, I’m obsessed with the citrus!
10. MagSafe Portable Battery Pack $94.99
This external battery pack is next level – looks great and so convenient, it’s a gift for the whole family. It acts as a stationary charging device, and a separate battery to go all in one, so you never run out of battery while out making memories! This one gets added to my top packing musts!
11. Universal International Travel Power Adapter $17.99
A must have essential for a traveler in your life! It’s a world wide adapter, everything you may need, anywhere you go, need I say more?
12. Ninja CREAMi Ice Cream Maker $179.99
We’re a foodie family, so this is a no brainer. I love this for its versatility, but even more that we have fun making desert together. I learned as a mom, but our kid operates kitchen gadgets like a pro at 10. This is a gift for the whole family to enjoy!
13. Alias Family Edition $27.99
The one board game we can all agree on, and it IS a lot of fun! grab snacks, but phones down and go have some wholesome family fun!
14. Weighted Cooling Chunky Knit Blanket $129.90
And finally, what says romance, family cuddles and relaxation more that cozy blankets? Even better, a blanket that doubles as a napping friend?! Weighted cooling chunky knit blanket in light grey is so cozy!
