A photo album full of cherished memories
One of the best gifts you can get for your girlfriend is a photo album of your cherished memories. Have in mind that for this thoughtful gift you need some time. First of all, you should consider what type of album you want to create. Is it going to be a traditional, hard-back one or perhaps a more modern, digital one? Then, when you have decided on this, find the one that you like and that you think is appropriate. This is the first, easier step. The next step refers to choosing the theme of the album. Is it going to be a timeline of your time spent together with some funny remarks and dates? Or perhaps your last summer/winter vacation? A Christmas-themed album? There are numerous options.
After these initial steps, it’s time for the harder part: finding photos, editing them and sorting them. It would be great if you collected all of your photos in one place and then started browsing through them and sorting them. Think about some special occasions that you attended together. For instance, let’s say you went to a wedding and your friends opted for a photo booth hire in Sydney, London, New York or wherever. That means that you probably took some amusing photos together and you can use them for your album. Also, photos from vacations would work fine as well as holiday-themed images as well.

A winter goodies basket
Among the best beauty gift ideas for New Year and Christmas are definitely diverse cosmetic products that your girlfriend uses or that she would like to use. If you’re familiar with the products your girlfriend uses, you can surprise her with her favourite products. Place them in a nice box or basket and add a bow. On the other hand, if you’re not familiar with the products she uses, then perhaps you can go for a spa basket. You can’t go wrong with this as every woman needs a basket such as this one in her bathroom. The typical spa products include a scented bubble bath, shower gel or milk, bath salts, loofah and body scrub. You can also complement the basket with a rich and nourishing moisturizer, calming face masks, a cinnamon-scented candle, a bottle of wine and a good book. Your girlfriend is surely going to appreciate the thought!

A piece of jewellery
A piece of jewellery is always an unmistakable gift - it’s timeless and it isn’t strictly related to a specific type of event. Think about what she would like: is it a necklace, a bracelet, earrings or perhaps a ring? Ask yourself if she likes simple or more extravagant jewellery pieces. You’ll know when you find the perfect thing. Remember to wrap it up nicely and put it under the Christmas tree.
