It will be Christmas soon and not long until all the presents are wrapped under the tree and you have tucked some very excited kids into bed (with the threat that Santa won’t come if they’re awake!). So, what to do now? We’ve decided to extend the new trend for giving Christmas Eve boxes to ourselves. We think you deserve one too! Here’s what we’re putting in our Christmas Eve Pamper box!

Must haves for a Christmas Eve Pamper Box

Face Mask – Whether it’s one you’ve been desperate to try, or a restock of an old favourite, nothing says ‘treat yourself’ quite like a face mask.

Bubble Bath – or a bath bomb, soak or salts, whatever you like to add to your bath to help you unwind, it’s a must-have for your Christmas Eve pamper session. 

New Pyjamas – What’s more indulgent than slipping into a gorgeous new pair of pyjamas after a good soak in the bath? Nothing, as far as we’re concerned! 

Eye Mask – There’s nothing worse than that tired eye feeling – treat yourself to an eye mask to help to reduce puffiness, dark circles and fine lines. 

Aromatherapy Candle – We recommend Eve Taylor’s, stocked and adored by lots of SkinBase Therapists!

Festive Nail Polish – Whether it’s a Christmassy red, a golden glitter or something more muted, a fresh coat of polish will have you feel brand new. 

A New Book – Did you know that in Iceland, it’s tradition to receive a new book as a gift on Christmas Eve? And afterwards, everyone spends the rest of the evening reading them! We think this is a delightful way to unwind before the madness of Christmas day. 

Bottle of wine – Or your favourite tipple! If you aren’t drinking, make it a mini box of your favourite chocolates, whatever you pick, it’s your treat.

Put together this Christmas Eve Pamper Box ahead of time, so you’re ready to enjoy it when the time comes. You could even make one for your partner, full of things that they’d like, so you can spend an evening relaxing together!
