Unique Valentine's Day gift ideas for him and her

FOR HIM:

  1. Beard products for your man could take his beard from a three to a ten overnight. Keeping the skin and hair moisturized is key for a well-groomed beard. Plus, who doesn’t love it when he smells like freshly chopped wood?
  2. If he’s clean-shaven, get him a fancy shaving kit. Nothing makes him feel manlier than when he’s lathering the shaving cream over his face with a boar-bristle brush.
  3. Patterned socks that include his favorite things, like: band logos, raccoons, canoes, or pot leaves.
  4. Tickets to a sporting event with the promise that you won’t complain, or tickets to a concert you know he’d enjoy.
  5. Choose a new cologne. This gives you the power to decide how he smells. Goodbye Axe, hello Armani.
FOR HER:
  1. Any jewelry from the Lauren Conrad line at Kohls. The designs are soft, delicate and feminine.
  2. If your lady isn’t a girly-girl, that’s ok. Memorabilia from her favorite book or movie can go a long way. (i.e. Harry Potter, etc.)
  3. Purchase a class session you know she’d enjoy, like: A cooking, cake decorating, or glass blowing class. Learning something new together could help you form a stronger bond.
  4. Does she like to write or stay organized? Gift her with some nice colored pens and a leather journal or planner. There’s something about new pens that makes shivers go up a girl’s spine…in a good way.
  5. Find out what make-up she’s been eyeing at Ulta and surprise her with a set of mascara, eye shadow, and lipstick. A few Essie nail polishes never hurt either.
Finally, flowers and chocolate go a long way when you’re short on cash or are out of ideas. Remember, unless you’ve agreed NOT to celebrate Valentine’s Day, you should purchase a gift, or at least write a card.
