It’s my perfect Valentine’s Day

- KATIE GALLAGHER By

To me, from me, love me. That’s our motto this Valentine’s Day.

Whether you are spoiling yourself, someone you love, or looking for some help in the present hinting ahead of the romantic season, we’ve got you covered.

From fragrance to self indulgent hair care, the list is endless for Valentine’s and Galentine’s Day gift ideas.

THE GIFT OF SCENT

The gift of scent comes in many forms. From signature Colognes that spark a special memory and mood, to indulgent bath and body products for a quiet night in, or relaxing day from home, say it with a sultry scent.

Whether it’s for yourself in the form of your favourite perfume or candle, or for a special someone, scent is always a go to for

Valentine’s Day.

For a soft, but romantic note, you can’t go wrong with Flowerbomb, by Viktor & Rolf, Eau de Parfum 50ml €92.00

Meanwhile, Jo Malone London’s Scarlet Poppy, a new vibrant smell, in a sexy red-hued bottle will set hearts aflutter for the romantic season.

Scarlet Poppy Cologne Intense 50ml €101

While restaurant­s and fancy date nights elsewhere are off the cards, set the scene at home with a candlelit affair.

The new Miniature Candle Collection from Jo Malone, available at Brown Thomas for €75 brings together a fragrant selection of small but perfectlyf­ormed mini candles to create a romantic atmosphere anywhere.

THE GIFT OF GORGEOUS HAIR

It’s been a long few months without our hair care, and if anyone’s mane is looking as unruly as mine, I’m sure anyone would be thankful for some hair love this Valentines.

Spoil yourself, or someone you love with the gift of a good hair day.

For bottle blondes like me, the Kérastase Blond Absolu Bundle €124.45, available on Look Fantastic is a one stop shop of luxury combining a selection of five must-have haircare products to keep your blonde hair looking healthy and vibrant.

Or, for the ultimate hair, skin and sleep saviour go for the Berry Kiss Pillowcase Queen by Slip, €96.45.

Crafted from a unique silk blend, this pillowcase achieves the ultimate combinatio­n of shine, softness, thickness and durability.

Not only does it protect your hair, it also looks after your skin, preventing the stretching of delicate facial skin and formation of sleep creases, which gradually reduce the natural elasticity of your complexion. We spend over a third of our lives in bed, we may as well put the time to good use.
