The Self-Love Gifts We're Treating Ourselves To

Regardless of what your feelings around the sentiment, you’ll find it almost impossible to avoid the influx of Valentine’s Day gifts about to hit the shops – if they haven’t arrived already. Classic Valentine’s Day gifts including the dozen red roses, heart shaped chocolates and giant teddy bears holding ‘I love you’ flags are easy wins. This year though, we’re going for something a little more special. We’re treating ourselves to a self-love gift. From the Diptyque scented candle we’ve been eyeing up to the luxury Byredo Eye Palette our makeup bags needs, it’s 2023 and it’s time to invest in you.
6 Of The Best Self-Love Valentine’s Day Gifts For 2023

Hourglass
Unlocked™ Satin Crème Lipstick, £37.00
Is there anything more instantly uplifting than a freshly applied slick of red lipstick? We are obsessed with Hourglass’ new Unlocked Satin Crème Lipstick in Red. It’s bold, it’s bright and it is so incredibly comfortable to wear. Packed full of argan and avocado oils, this lipstick feels more like a nourishing lip balm but the pigment stays in place, so you don’t have to keep reapplying.

Diptyque
Roses Scented Candle, £35.00A Diptyque Roses Scented Candle is, in our eyes, infinitely better than a dozen red roses. It lasts for longer for a start, and when treated with care, Diptyque’s candle should burn for up to 60 hours. The luxury French fragrance house has conjured up the fresh, uplifting scent of freshly picked roses that never fails to put a smile on our face – even in the depths of winter.
