GIFT IDEA / SHOWER KIT!
i really love gift giving. i like thinking about the perfect gift for that person…picking up on little things they say that give clues about what they would really love to receive. this time i was trying to think of a cool gift for a guy. something unique AND useful. this guy happens to absolutely love showers. i’ve never met anyone who liked them more, actually. so i planned the ultimate shower kit! (because he also loves hotels, so i was trying to make a package that felt like you were staying at a cool hotel.)
now, most guys aren’t gonna go out and buy fancy bath products. but they’d probably really like them if they were given to them. and those are great gifts, right? the ones you enjoy but wouldn’t necessarily splurge on yourself?
this shower kit included:
• keihl’s fig & sage body cleanser
• keihl’s facial cleanser
• aesop calming shampoo (my favorite! love the smell so much)
• aesop classic conditioner
• swim club bath salts
• birch & goldberry bar soaps
• sea wool natural bath sponge
• pumice stone
and…
after shower products:
• keihl’s light-weight lotion
• herbivore botanicals facial serum
• herbivore botanicals body oil
• herbivore botanicals hydrate mist
bonus:
to wrap, i used some baskets and lined them with reusable graphic hand towels. now, this really is the ultimate shower kit! (of course, you could get towels, candles, and much more) but this is already quite a bit. you can easily do more or less depending on how fancy you want the gift to be. but geez, i’d be happy just to get new shampoo!
do you have anyone in your life that would enjoy this gift?? dad, brothers, boyfriends, best friends?
PS. unique ways to wrap presents here!

Oh my gosh I love this idea! Such a perfect unique gift. I often find gift buying for guys to be pretty tricky..so I think I might need to copy this idea.

beautiful! i’d love being gifted aesop products…and so would my husband.
I love this idea. My husband also has an undying love for hotels!
What a beautiful gift! I recently bought a whole load of products my boyfriend thought he ‘didn’t need’ because he was happily using mine until I explained that my moisturiser was £36 and the one I’d bought him was £6!
Beautifully styled and photographed, and such a wonderful idea!

Woah! This is such a perfect post. My boyfriend absolutely LOVES showering….it may be unhealthy. He spends more time in the shower than I do, and I know he would love everything in this basket (not to mention I would too, so I would have to steal some).
Thanks for such a great post Bri! I struggle a lot with gifts for men, and this is on point.
Gorgeous, I love a great bath experience!
I love this idea! I’ve been trying to think of some awesome Christmas gift ideas and so far my favorite idea is a blanket & book.

This is awesome! Thanks for reminding me I need to get some Kiehls!
I love this. Maybe a gift for myself! Haha just kidding…. No I’m not… Maybe for my mom 🙂
I recently made a gift basket for my mom’s birthday – she just got a brand new kitchen, so it was full of Williams Sonoma gear, high-end gourmet foods, and Paper Source goodies. HUGE hit. Would love to do this one for my best friend’s birthday in September!
I just gave my boyfriend a sushi making kit I put together. Kits are a great way to encompass an interest with lots of little gifts. And theme shopping is much easier than single larger things.
