What the buy the woman who has everything.
The most wonderful time of the year is just around the corner. You’re in charge of seemingly everything: the guest list, the multi-course lunch, the decorations and the present buying. We know how you feel. When you’re busy juggling all that quotidian life throws at you — deadlines, family responsibilities, holiday planning — it’s easy to fall back on socks and book vouchers to placate the crowd.
While we all love to replenish our hosiery drawers and line our bookshelves with new tomes, it can begin to feel a little repetitive receiving — and giving — the same gifts, albeit in various guises, year after year.
We have taken it upon ourselves to lighten your holiday load. Over the course of four weeks we’re publishing our pick of the best luxury gifts that you and yours are guaranteed to love. We’ve looked beyond the obvious knick-knacks and stocking fillers to bring you suggestions of gifts to uplift, inspire and indulge even the most discerning of family members.
For our second edition, we guide you through the best luxury gifts for the busy woman in your life. Time-saving, stylish, functional but beautiful gifts are in order. Here are our picks from around the web:
1. Best gifts for busy women to boost their energy
What better gift for the busy woman in your life than the gift of continued energy, positivity and va-va-voom that arrives promptly each month? The LYMA Supplement aids cognitive function, encourages restful sleep, combats anxiety and low mood as well as boosting organ function and immune system resilience.
Packed with adaptogens, nutricosmetics and powerful actives, the LYMA formula delivers a daily dose of nutraceuticals such as Cynatine® HNS, affron®, Sensoril® Ashwagandha, and LycoBeads® Lycopene. Patented, proven and optimally dosed, LYMA delivers support busy individuals need to keep firing on all cylinders. Looking after the one who looks after everyone else — good call.
The LYMA Supplement Subscription, £149 p/m. Available to buy here.
2. Best gifts to keep her glowing: A course of facials with Nichola Joss
Busy women have packed schedules and full diaries, so booking a course of skin-transforming facials is an ideal gift for the sophisticated woman in your life. Nichola Joss is one of the beauty industry’s most revered experts and has treated A-list names such as Scarlett Johansson, Hilary Swank, Gisele Bundchen and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Based between London’s Harley Street and her Manhattan clinic, Nichola’s signature ‘Inner Facial’ combines lymphatic drainage with deep tissue pressure massage and sculpting techniques. It lifts facial muscles, revives skin tone and improves circulation to restore glow and elasticity. Each treatment is bespoke and tailored to the individual’s skin and muscle needs.
Nichola’s facials start from £350.
3. Best gift for busy women to keep on track: The Fitbit Sense
Tracking health has never been more stylish. The Fitbit Sense provides advanced wellness insights, heart rate monitoring, stress management and sleep tracking — the perfect companion for the busy woman who wants to stay on top of her health.
Fitbit Sense, £395.
4. Best gift no matter who she is: Louis Vuitton Pocket Organiser
The perfect gift to keep her essentials — cards, cash and business must-haves — neatly organised in classic luxury style. This compact monogram wallet slips into any handbag or pocket and turns the everyday into something extraordinary.
Louis Vuitton Pocket Organiser, £235.
5. Best gift for busy women to relax: Silk eye mask from Slip
‘Let her rest’ — the words every busy woman longs to hear. A silk eye mask is more than a luxury: it locks in skin moisture, helps prevent dark circles, and protects the delicate under-eye area from dryness. Ideal for frequent travellers, silk masks combat the dehydrating effects of long-haul flights. We love Slip’s zodiac-inspired designs as well as their timeless classics.
Silk eye mask from Slip from £50.
6. Best gift for busy women’s daily skin routine: The LYMA Laser
The ultimate gift for the time-poor beauty lover in your life. If anti-aging, pigmentation, scarring or blemishes are her concerns, this is the upgrade she deserves.
The LYMA Laser offers clinic-grade skin rejuvenation at home, healing the skin on a cellular level with ease and safety. It is the most effective skin renewal system in a generation, offering professional-grade results in the palm of your hand.
Just 15–30 minutes per day is enough to improve the appearance of wrinkles, pigmentation, sagging skin, blemishes, bruising, scars, cellulite and redness. Nothing of its calibre has ever been available for home use before.
The Starter Kit includes the LYMA Laser plus a 30-day supply of LYMA Active Mist and Priming Serum to elevate her beauty routine.
£1999 — available to buy here.
