Books and stationery
Books are not just a man's best friend, they also can be a woman's. If your sister loves reading and can't get her head out of the pages, the best way to express your adoration for her is to just gift her more books. Quality reading maketh a person, as they say. Find out what your sister likes to read, go to the nearest store and get that book. You can team the book with cute stationery, that will prove useful to her for coursework or otherwise. Besides, who doesn't cherish that lovely, distinct pen gifted by a special person in life? She would love it, for sure.
Gift coupons and shopping vouchers
If your sister receives a shopping voucher to famous brands she will jump with joy. Instead of buying her clothes and accessories, that you have no idea regarding, get her some gift vouchers or hampers that she can herself use to get things to her liking. Not only that, if you can, find out some time to go out shopping with her. You might end up sharing your little secrets with each other while shopping.
Holiday trips and staycations
Holidays are the best things that can happen to somebody's life. Even if your sister is not much of wanderlust or a travel person, everyone appreciates a few days off from the daily, mundane life that can recharge our lives. Plan a small trip to the nearest hill station or a beach destination or your sister's favourite holiday destination. It can be just a family trip or you can choose to tag her friends along. Believe it or not, this will definitely make memories for a lifetime, and she will thank you for it.
Beauty and skincare products
Gone are the days when people used to have the opinion that skincare is not really essential in life, but more of an add-on to makeup. It is really not so since dermatologists have repeatedly advised getting into a proper skincare regimen as early in life as possible since the skin is the first barrier on our bodies against any infection and disease. Taking care of the skin and keeping it healthy is just as essential as keeping your internal health in mind, and as the body ages, it will thank you more for it. Therefore, this Raksha Bandhan, it would actually be perfect to gift your sister essential skincare products like a nutritional facewash, night cream, or a moisturiser that will keep her skin healthy. You can also throw in beauty and makeup items like a foundation, concealer, or a primer along with it. She will appreciate it for sure. But be sure to choose properly!
