Christmas Gifts Under $20 Gift Guide

Christmas Gifts Under $20 Gift Guide

by Allison Harvey

I think we can all relate to it being that time of year where your work and personal life is super busy and all you can think about is being able to kick your feet up and relax over the holiday season. The excitement is starting to bubble up and maybe, like me, you just can’t help yourself from starting to plan Christmas.

'Tis the season to soak up the sun, spend quality time with your friends and family and show your loved ones how much you appreciate them with one of the 5 love languages, gifts.

The only downfall? Having to ball on a budget whilst finding the perfect gift.

But there is no need to worry, receiving gifts isn’t about the monetary value it’s about the symbolic value that you know them, care for them, and understand them.  That’s why I’ve put together a list of all my favourite Natio gift sets (under $20!) that I will be gifting to those that I love and that you can too.

Mother/Mother-In-Law/Grandmothers

Starting off strong with one of the hardest groups of people to buy for, Christmas gifts for your mother, mother-in-law or grandmother.

I don’t know about you but when my mum wants something, she’ll usually just buy it. Which does NOT make gift-giving any easier. That’s why I am going to buy her something to show her I appreciate how much she does for me and remind her to look after herself too.

The Petal Gift Set ($14.95) is perfect. It will remind her to carve time out of her day to have some ‘me-time’ OR give you a good excuse to spend some quality time with her whilst giving her a relaxing and rejuvenating hand massage and manicure. The gift set features a Rosewater Hydration Moisture Rich Hand & Nail Cream 100ml and 2 in 1 emery board that will hydrate, soothe and shape her hands. If the budget allows you could also give her the Blossom Gift Set ($24.95), featuring three stunning nail colours or pick out one of your favourite colours for only $9.95 to follow and perfect the manicure.  

Father/Father-In-Law/Grandfathers

Next up is the perfect gift for the father/father-in-law. Personally, my dad does not go shopping, he still wears the same shirt he got given as a present 10 years ago. This makes my job a little easier when buying him presents, it’s as much what does he need as it is what does he want. That’s why this year my personal favourite is the Refresh Gift Set ($16.95). Not only does is feature a Daily Face Wash that cleans dirt and grime, perfect for an outdoorsy man (my dad’s a farmer so is essential for him) it includes a stubby holder that he can keep forever and act as a reminder of you.

Girl Friends/Girlfriends/Sisters

When thinking about what to get my sister and my besties, I know it’s got to be good. They have been through the ups and downs with me, seen me at my worst (more than once) and still love me. I want something that screams I see you and I love you, but I don’t want to go broke in doing so.

Whether it’s the entire present, or a small addition this year my top pick is the Blend Gift Set. For only $9.95 it gives "I see you (and your current beauty blender that is in no state to be using) and I love you (so please take care of your beautiful skin)". It also acts as an adorable Christmas decoration that they will use and LOVE. The gift set is not one, not two, but three beauty blenders all with their own purpose, a Complexion Perfection Foundation Sponge, Teardrop Application Sponge and Angled Teardrop Blending Sponge.

Boy Friends/Boyfriends/Brothers

I’m pretty sure my little brother will be gifting me just a hug for Christmas this year (if I’m lucky), but nonetheless I still want to get him something special and let me tell you that is not an easy task. However, after doing some deep-diving I’m pretty sure I’ve cracked the code with this, it’s giving them something that they probably may not think of getting for themselves but need and will appreciate.

The Smooth Gift Set ($14.95) is perfect. Not only will the Natio for Men Smooth Shave Gel and shave brush be practical and used multiple times a week, but will make their life easier and quite literally smoother. It’s a way to show the boys in your life you care about them but also something they will use and appreciate.

Kris Kringle/Secret Santa

What do get when you don’t know what to get? How do you know what to buy when you don’t know who you are buying for? Kris Kringle and Secret Santa presents are hard, there is no denying that. However, I am here to save the day, not only is this perfect for anyone to receive, it’s also super affordable.

The Lustre Gift Set ($22.95) is my go-to when I don’t know what to go for. It includes the perfect and practical pairing of the Wellness Hand Wash and Intensive Hand Cream, presented in a trendy bamboo fibre caddy. The set is packed with the antioxidant goodness of pure Pomegranate, smells amazing and lets face it - looks impressive.

Personally this is making me even more excited for Christmas, with finding the perfect presents out of the way, any stress Christmas may include is GONE. I can’t wait to see everyone’s faces when I give them their Christmas gifts!
