These Are the Gifts I’d Give My BFF for National Best Friends Day

It’s National Best Friends Day, and I’d be remiss not to post on this day that honors and gives a big hug to my besties. I have had more than my BFF that I mention here but I have some friends that have lost that BFF status over the years for one reason or another.

My friendship with this woman goes back decades. I’m not going to divulge our ages by saying how many decades… For some reason, it seems that all our pics are in a bar, winery or at a music venue.

Since we grew up in the same area, we do have some commonalities when it comes to our Beauty preferences. Tanya is more of a less is better type, a minimalist.  So when I gift her beauty products I just keep in mind what she actually will use and then I bump up the quality. She also benefits from my forgetfulness as I seem to have a habit of leaving my makeup in her car or my favorite Chanel Mademoiselle Coco Soap in her shower.

First up is Bath and Body.

This lady loves luxury body care. So I have gifted her Jo Malone body products. I think I need to update my choices for her now.

Jo Malone Peony & Blush Suede Body Crème $95

With cocoa butter and sweet almond oil, the formula is smooth in texture, and provides skin with moisturisation. Leave skin scented with this opulent, floral fragrance.

Jo Malone Peony & Blush Suede Body & Hand Wash $52

With naturally derived glycerine and meadowfoam seed oil, the formula transforms into a velvety foam and cleanses and softens skin. Leave skin scented with this opulent, floral fragrance.

When it comes to makeup she keeps it super simple.

Mascara, a little eyeshadow and a dab of lipstick. This woman loves Lancôme products, so I’ll share my favorites.

Lancôme HYPNÔSE DRAMA Instant Full Body Volume Mascara $32

A volumizing mascara that delivers up to 17 times more volume and up to 24 hours of ultra-dramatic wear—the buildable formula you love, now with more volume

An original juicy lip gloss with ultra-high shine for a fuller lip effect- the perfect cushiony texture keeps lips hydrated for up to four hours.

Last but not least, we share a serioous love of wine. Having grown up in Sonoma County wine country, we are wine snobs and proud of it.

So, I think a wine accessory would be a great gift. This Modern Innovations Electric Wine Chiller, should work.
