Just because you might not have a significant other to spoil you this Valentine’s Day, it doesn’t mean you can’t treat yourself!
While your loved-up friends are spending February 14 at corny, over-priced dinners or in move theatres packed with couples, take some time to enjoy a little self-care.
From lamington-scented candles to 1500 thread-count sheets, we’ve made a gift guide that will guarantee you won’t have relationship FOMO on Valentine’s Day this year.
Perfume
Don’t have a partner to buy you perfume on V-Day? No worries, buy one for yourself! Better yet, spoil yourself with this Estee Lauder perfume pack.
The bundle includes a full-sized Eau de Parfum Spray, Perfumed Body Lotion, and Eau de Parfum Purse Spray.

Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to buy yourself something off your wish list that you’ve been putting off spending money on.
Featuring a textural slub yarn and fringing detail, the Fiera Throw is made from 100% cotton. It’s a mid weight blanket that’s both warm and cozy and a practical decoarative piece for your home.

Waffle Maker
Here’s an idea to treat yourself on an otherwise isolating day – make yourself breakfast in bed!
This smart waffle iron not only allows you to select how you want your four delicious waffles done but also all lets you know when they’re ready to eat.

Candles
You could buy yourself a bouquet of flowers that will eventually wilt, or you could spoil yourself with a stunning candle and set the mood for curling up on the couch and watching your favourite rom-com.
This candle is Glasshouse’s newest dessert-influenced delight inspired by one of the nation’s most beloved tea-time treats – lamingtons!

Wine Glasses
Self-care doesn’t always have to be putting on a face mask and taking a bath – sometimes it can be as simple as pouring yourself a glass of wine.
Made from mouth-blown glass, these stunners are perfect for a chic dinner party at home or for while doing all of the above!
