Valentine's Day Gifts

See all 21 Valentine’s Day gifts! »

Ah, Valentine’s Day! If you’ve been a twosome for years or are just celebrating your first February 14 together, the question of what to give is always a tricky one to tackle. We’re here to take the guesswork out of Valentine’s Day gifts, with a complete guide of stylish ideas for the man, woman and best friend in your life. From sultry suggestions for lingerie and loungewear—including a bustier that can totally double as a crop top—to jewellery in a range of prices and styles, we have Valentine’s Day gifts for all sorts of lovers. For instance, not ready to propose but want to still put a ring on it? Consider a rose gold commitment ring engraved with a playful (and we mean playful!) phrase. Instead of sending a dozen red roses go with a vibrant bouquet of purple, burgundy and lavender flowers. Men may be notoriously hard to buy for, but we guarantee that every guy will be impressed by a Valentine’s Day gift of high-end grooming products, a dapper bow tie or a quirky pair of cufflinks. For the best friend on your list, cute and stylish Valentine’s Day gifts are the best way to show you care. We’re fond of quaint jewellery boxes, sweet-smelling soaps and body washes—including one scented like conversation hearts! No matter what Valentine’s Day gifts you give, we think that delivery with a flirty smile is always key.

Fashion Magazine 2012 Holiday Guide

Christmas is the time when the younger ones in our lives declare what they want to see under the tree. And if you’re sick of hearing “puppy!” year after year it’s time to take back the reigns from Santa and plan creative gift ideas for kids all by yourself. While our selection of holiday gift ideas represents a wide range of ages from tiny toddlers to teenagers, they are all products that will make them look forward to your gifts for years to come.

If you want to head down the clothing route for girls, step away from the cutesy pink dresses and choose a studded and totally trendy Topshop headband—which is sure to make the other girls in class envious. And leave it to Marc Jacobs to create a high fashion version of the swappable and coveted Silly Bandz that all spell out his name—a fun and new take of the popular rubber accessory. And when you’re young, the $16 price tag means nothing, but the designer name says it all.

Beauty Fix: Soothe sensitive skin with an all-natural SPF, cure ingrown hairs at the cottage and say sayonara to your itchy scalp in the summertime

Comments

Odds are that if you’re someone who prefers crisp winter weather over sizzling summer nights, it’s because your body reacts less than favourably when temperatures rise.

But don’t fret (or sweat!): Beauty Fix is here to help. From irritation brought on by sunscreen to keeping ingrown hairs at bay the natural way, we’re here to soothe your sensitive skin all summer long.

The temperatures are kicking into high gear right about now, spelling out trouble for our beauty, skin and hair upkeep. Melting eyeliner, filmy skin, limp strands—as much as we love summer, it can definitely do a number on our looks. But with a long weekend on the horizon, the odds of hiding inside during a hot day are slim to none. Our advice: don’t fight it! Instead of sticking to your tried-and-true makeup routine (likely created during cooler times) break out new formulas and looks that work with the heat. Read on to discover a few of our favourite finds that will help you look like a beach bombshell and not a melting mess.
