Spa gift baskets are a great way to help friends and family feel relaxed, refreshed and rejuvenated for the holidays. As enjoyable as this season is, it is also a hectic one full of long lines and last-minute deadlines. After rushing to get the Christmas shopping done and hopping from one family get-together to the next, anyone knows how wonderful it is to just soak in a tub as the worries and stress drip away. Giving a gift basket gives the gift of the complete spa experience at home.
For years, going to the spa has been seen as a feminine activity. Nowadays, however, more and more men are appreciating the services provided by this industry. After all, both men and women work just as hard in this day and age, so why shouldn’t the men enjoy the pampering as well? More than this though, spa gift baskets are also about grooming. Because of this, the following discusses some nice items to include in gift baskets for the ladies and those for the gentlemen in your life.
Spa for her
Stereotypically, they say that women like to feel soft and smooth after they bathe, in addition to feeling clean. Because of this, specialty skin care products are often included in spa treatments for women. When selecting a gift basket, look for the following items: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, moisturizer, and hand and body lotion.
Most women are willing to take the extra bath time to indulge themselves as they relieve stress. Because of this, other products that are nice to have would be bath salts and scented candles.
Spa for him
The spa experience for men is mainly geared towards grooming products that keep them neat and clean without too much sparkle. Ideal items to look for in a gentleman’s gift basket would be shower gel or soap, shampoo, shaving cream, aftershave, a loofah or body scrub, and moisturizer.
Men do seem to favor scents that energize, so look for these when selecting the items. Don’t forget to include a bottle of matching cologne and hand cream to go along with all the other grooming items.
On a last note, whether giving the spa gift basket to a man or a woman, keep in mind that touch therapy does any body good. Include a nice wooden body massager to help knead all those knots and sore muscles away and friends can look forward to a restful and relaxing holiday season.
