How to find the perfect gift

When it comes to gift-giving, the choice can seem endless. So here's some handy hacks to help with shopping for birthdays, anniversaries, and more. You name it - we've got it!

Whether you're looking for a gift for your girlfriend, something to say a little thank you or a Mother's Day present they'll never forget, then the following questions will help you find exactly what you're looking for...

Getting to know you...

Ever found yourself thinking of a loved one and trying to remember everything they like? It can seem like an impossible task! However, with much effort, comes great reward.

Say your best friend loves flowers but her boyfriend's allergic, why not change it up with Rosie, or if your partner can't go a week without chocolates or asking for a massage (or five!), why not treat them to Symphony No.6?

So, here are some questions that you can ask yourself about the person you are buying for. By figuring out exactly who they are and what they like most, you'll have an indispensable cheat sheet of everything they'd want in a present. Here we go:

Find gifts by personality:

How would you describe them in three words? 

What would they do on a day off?

What do they do, that makes them feel good about themselves?

What is their favourite Lush product?

Find gifts by hobby:

What is their favorite hobby?

What do they love about it? 

How often do they travel? 

Find gifts by relationship:

What is your most cherished memory together?

How would you like them to feel?

What’s your favourite thing about them?

Find gifts by thinking outside the box:

If they were on a game show and won their ultimate prize, what would that be?

What do they daydream about?

If they had their own theme tune, what would it be and why?

You’ve answered these questions, so now what?
