Oh i just get them whatever they've been eyeing or they had on their wishlist haha. Or maybe something that they were running out of? It's not that big of a deal since I think of gifting skincare only when it comes to people who share my passion for it.
Funny you said hand creams are a great option because my love for The Body Shop hand creams is endless 😍
Have you ever received skincare as a gift?
My friend got me a Mandelic acid from Wishtrend because we were discussing it and I told her that once my exfoliating toner runs out, I'll buy the Wishtrend one.
Overall, I think that handcreams, body lotions, face masks, feet masks eye patches or candles could be a great option, but you have to be mindful of the scents. I think skincare that brings relaxation over actually actively treating the skin is the answer here :)
