The Top 5
Gift Guide: Parents & Baby
Gift Guide: Parents & Baby
While we deep dive into gift ideas across beauty, wellness and grooming over on our store, this year we were so struck by how brilliant the selection of products for parents and babies has become that we thought it warranted its very own Top 5. From indulgent treats for the exhausted parents in your life to pampering skincare for little ones, this host of family-friendly products are sure to please.
The Radiance Restorers

Despite our very best efforts, the complexion will invariably give away when we’ve had a sleepless night or are just generally exhausted. So this Golden Glow Ritual by MZ Skin (£200), featuring a host of skin brightening beauties, will be gratefully received by any parents functioning on a little too little sleep right now. A chic golden cosmetics case houses their exfoliating cleanser, eye treatment and deeply restorative overnight mask, plus two sheet masks for an instant boost of hydration.

The Keepsake Box of Treasures

This charming Aurelia London Woodland Friends Gift Set (£150) features the whole Little Aurelia line for babies and children, specifically created to nurture their delicate skin barrier. A suite of cocooning and heavenly scented products designed to settle and help baby off to sleep, the set also contains Little Aurelia’s very own Sleepy Time Tales book to round out the perfect bedtime ritual. It’s all presented in a sweetly illustrated suitcase adorned with festive woodland creatures that will be treasured by mum and baby for years to come.

For The Sleep Deprived Parent

For new parents, good sleep – or any sleep, if we’re honest – can be in short supply. And while the Aromatherapy Associates Moments of Tranquil Sleep set (£50) can’t guarantee your newborn will sleep through until morning, it will nonetheless help create the conditions for a blissful night of slumber. Three stars from their Deep Relax line – a silky bath and shower oil, candle and pillow mist – comprise a suitably soporific bedtime routine, which, with the help of the gorgeous inky blue eye mask, should (hopefully) lead to some well-deserved shut-eye.

The Luxe Infant Skincare Routine

If the new parent in your life swears by their own Dr. Barbara Sturm skincare routine, they can’t help but be thrilled with this Baby & Kids Essentials kit (£55) to set their little one up for good skin from day one. The Bathing Milk and Nappy Cream are designed to soothe sensitivity to keep baby’s skin happy and hydrated all day long, while the adorable bunny from storied German toy maker Steiff will go down a treat with bub.   

We’re often recommending the excellent Mama Mio pregnancy range to the mums-to-be in our life, so we’re not surprised that the Mini Mio Bundle of Joy Gift Set makes for an equally lovely ritual once baby has arrived. This top-to-toe routine provides everything you need for bathing,  changing and quite simply keeping baby’s skin irresistibly soft.

For A Moment of TLC

If you need a skin boost but you’re short on time, there’s nothing quite like a mask that you can pop on and let work its magic while you get on with whatever you need to do – which, if you’re exhausted, may well be absolutely nothing. The Rose Gold Radiance Edit from 111SKIN provides three of their fan favourite masks – one for the full face and two for the under eyes – plus an instantly illuminating serum. It’s a recipe for glowing skin in just 20 minutes.
