The best gifts to buy for your ride or die

Do you have a mate who always brings the same threadbare tote bag to every hang? This one’s for them. More Joy’s jumbo tote can fit everything you could possibly need in it. You can’t go wrong with a gift that gives function and fashion all at once.

Ok, we know that some might think that giving a candle as a present is basic, but this Earl of East set is anything but. Combining notes of tuberose, blackberry leaf and bergamot, this candle and home mist duo is the height of scented luxury.

With all the overconsumption of Christmas, sometimes what we want the most isn’t a physical gift, but an experience. This breathwork session might be just what your bestie needs to kickstart 2023 in the most mindful way possible.

This is pretty much a present for both of you. Your best mate gets to smell nice and you get to smell them (not in a weird way.) CRA-YON’s eau de parfum combines refreshing notes of mandarin, bergamot, lemon and grapefruit.

This one’s for the fashion friend. The one who always has to be the best dressed and loves to make a statement. Ragged Priest’s fur trim tote is certain to get you in their good books.

Some people are just hat people. Hat people can be easy to buy for as long as you know their style. That said, we can’t imagine anyone not liking HAVE A GD TRIP’s navy cap. It’s comfy, cool and goes with everything.

A candle with personality. Wavey Casa’s trippy, irreverent piece is perfect for your friend with a cheeky sense of humour. It’s handmade from eco soy wax and can be used as a decorative piece or functional candle with a burn time of 3 hours.

If you have a mate who loves talking about manifestation/crystals/star signs, then this one’s for them. Psychic Sisters’ protective ritual set contains sage and sandalwood aromatherapy products along with Reiki-energised crystals to cleanse your personal space. It comes with a handy instruction card for making the most out of each ritual.

It’s a versatile bag for every occasion. Lalo’s bags are fun, sustainable and durable, making them the perfect gift no matter your ride or die’s style. They’re handmade from recycled plastic so you get eco points as well as good friend points.

Is your best mate at an important turning point in their life? Do they have to make a big decision in the near future? Show your support by gifting them a one-to-one reading with Psychic Sisters. The session can provide a tarot reading, clairvoyant, palm reading, intuitive counselling, crystals or psychometry.

Give the gift of relaxation this Christmas. Clarity Blend’s pulse point rollers boost wellness and mood. The set comes with three unique scents to target different areas of tension. The Heart Chakra roll on blends cedarwood, frankincense and juniper to elevate creativity. The Sunset Bliss roll on blends botanicals for comfort and joy and the Summer Meadow roll on combines lemongrass, peppermint and grapefruit to evoke tranquility.

This one’s for your active friend; the gym rat, the marathon runner, the spin class addict. It includes bath salts, body oil and pulse point roll-ons to aid muscle recovery so your ride or die can get back to doing what they love.
