OUR BEST AND MOST COMPREHENSIVE GIFT GUIDE YET!
The 2025 Adults Christmas Gift Guides are looking a little different this year. Feedback is that readers want candid photos of what they get from the retailer. The packaging and how it comes in the post and keep on eye on our Instagram for unboxed products. We usually publish His & Hers guides but had requests to combine them for a more inclusive, bumper guide, and we are so excited to show off the wonderful products and brands. Buy one or two gifts that they will love rather than over buy gimmicky ones that will live in the back of a cupboard. Ask what people need or would like.
We have made it easy to see the retailer, price, postage info etc, including our own review as a customer in our product descriptions. (Always check websites’ last postage before Christmas dates.)
P.s Check if websites have discounts to sign up to mailing lists before you buy – every little helps, let’s jump right in and get shopping!

SHARPHAM CHEESE’S SHARPHAM CHEESE CLASSICS CHRISTMAS HAMPER RRP £27.
Handmade in South Devon near Totnes, with a cheesemaking heritage dating back to 1981, Sharpham Cheese has built an excellent reputation for producing distinctive, handcrafted small-batch soft and semi-hard cheeses by hand using milk sourced from the surrounding countryside. Three cheeses – Cremet, Savour, and Ticklemore have won 3 Great Taste Award stars, the highest rating; its much-loved range also includes Sharpham Brie, Rustic, Washbourne and Elmhirst.
For food lovers, Sharpham Cheese has launched its Christmas gift and hamper range. The collection ranges from classic cheese selections and ready-made cheeseboards with carefully selected guest cheeses, to generous grazing boxes, charcuterie, chutneys, other artisan treats from some of Devon’s finest independent producers, cheese and wine experiences and all-out festive feasts.
An introduction to three of Sharpham Cheese’s best-loved varieties: the SHARPHAM CHEESE CLASSICS BOX includes rich, creamy Brie square (250g) made with rich Jersey cow’s milk, light lemony goat’s cheese Ticklemore truckle (280g and what a name) and semi-hard crumbly Rustic truckle (280g), accompanied by handcrafted crunchy Original Sourdough Crackers (100g). A fantastic pairing. Together, these three cheeses create a balanced introduction to the flavours and craftsmanship of Sharpham Dairy, offering a wonderful balance of flavours and textures. Personally, I would gift it with some fresh grapes and a couple of bottles of cider. Each cheese comes with its own best-before date. Most cheeses will keep for approximately 7–14 days when refrigerated. In keeping with their commitment to sustainability, the UK’s first cheesemaker to achieve B Corp certification in 2022, Sharpham Cheese hampers are packed using recyclable materials and reusable ice packs. The Hamper box are attractively branded and I had a jolly chuckle at the note on the bottom of the box which was left on my step saying, ” Help, I am upside down”. An ideal Christmas gift, host present or effortless addition to a festive cheeseboard.

DIALOGUE PISCES HYDRATING FACIAL CREAM RRP £55.
Dialogue offers a completely different approach to gifting, combining natural botanical high-performance skincare, astrology and mindfulness. Its products are designed around Zodiac energies, so you can choose a skincare ritual based on the recipient’s personality and zodiac for a highly personal product. Dialogue was created after experiencing years of stressed, inflamed skin. This is very much a brand ethos I can back – a focus on high-quality botanical products that encourage you to slow down and take time for self-care, not just a routine but a skin ritual. Reminding you that how you feel and how your skin looks are not separate conversations. The products are blended in small batches in the EU with certified-organic, cold-pressed and renewable-sourced ingredients.
Featured in Grazia the PISCES HYDRATING FACIAL CREAM is presented in a 50ml glass jar, boxed with chic, understated branding. A nurturing cream that soothes, replenishes and dissolves dryness, restoring skin to a state of nourished calm and flow. It has a very delicate citrus scent and glides on in a thick cream that soaks into the skin, leaving no greasy residue. I was impressed by how my skin immediately felt soft and soothed. Formulated with a luxurious 100% botanical formulation with multi-weight hyaluronic complex for hydration, squalane, shea, jojoba and Allanblackia seed butter which is richly nourishing, seals in moisture and conditions without heaviness. Red Macroalgae Extract helps soothe sensitive skin. Every active is published in full on the website, sourced for sensitivity. On the website, each product is paired with a guided meditation to use whilst applying, Pisces focusing on self-love, which is a thoughtful touch.
Consumer testing showed that 100% of participants reported better-hydrated skin after seven days in a 28-day study. The Pisces Hydrating Facial Cream can be used alone or as part of the complete Celestial Three routine, inspired by the elements of fire, air and water. Each product has its own purpose: Leo Radiance Cleansing Balm & Mask boosts radiance, Aquarius Peptide Renewal Serum focuses on clarity and renewal, while Pisces provides deep nourishment and a moment of rest.

I always encourage giving a book at Christmas, from a collector’s edition, to a gripping page-turner or a guide to a much-loved hobby. Thoughtful and personal, books offer hours of enjoyment. Founded in 1990, Summersdale is a vibrant English independent publisher that puts its heart and soul into creating exceptional books to inform, entertain and inspire.

BARTI MINI DUO GIFT SET RRP £13.50 AND BARTI CAN TRIPLE GIFT PACK RRP £12.50.
Barti Rum is an independent drinks business founded in 2017 by entrepreneur Jonathan Williams. Born on the wild Pembrokeshire coast, Barti makes distinctive Welsh spirits, its signature rum Barti Spiced infused with wild hand-picked Pembrokeshire laver seaweed for a umami, coastal twist. An environmental approach is an important part of the company’s identity. Barti achieved B Corp certification in 2024. Bottles are made from recycled glass, and labels are 100% biodegradable, down to the adhesive. The name comes from Barti Ddu, the Welsh name for Black Bart, whose real name was Bartholomew Roberts (1682–1722). He was a famous Welsh-born pirate from Pembrokeshire who became one of the most successful pirates of the Golden Age of Piracy. The brand uses his story to create a strong connection with Welsh maritime history and local identity
A great gift for the rum lover who likes something a little different. Awarded “Best Rum” at the Great British Food Awards 2024, Barti Spiced Rum is made with Caribbean rum balanced with vanilla, cinnamon, clove and sweet citrus the Welshman’s caviar. At 35% ABV, Barti is about as mellow as a Sunday morning. Vegan recipe. It can be enjoyed neat or over ice. As well as their full-sized bottles, there are dedicated gift options including the Barti Spiced Rum Gift Set with Glasses (£47.50), as well as smaller miniature sets that work brilliantly for stocking fillers and Secret Santa gifts.
Test out the waters with contrasting BARTI MINI DUO GIFT SET including two 5cl miniature bottles showcasing their most loved, multi-award-winning spirits. Smooth and warming Barti Spiced paired with Barti Cream plant-based liqueur and newest addition to the Barti range. Made from coconut (though this is not in the flavour) with a creamy texture and gentle spice (15% ABV). It is dairy-free and lactose-free, making it an alternative to traditional cream liqueurs. It is rich and smooth. The bottles, even in miniature, are beautifully presented and branded, as is the FSC-approved recyclable packaging. There is also the new canned cocktail trio gift set, the BARTI CAN TRIPLE GIFT PACK made up of three distinctive flavours in 250ml cans: Barti Ginger & Lemon Iced Tea – warming ginger with zesty lemon for an easy, refreshing serve. Barti & Apple – a crisp, fruity combination of Barti’s signature spiced rum and apple. Barti & Sea Buckthorn Fizz – fruity and refreshing, and winner of five accolades at the 2026 World Drinks Awards across taste and design and Category Champion in the Alcoholic Drinks category at The Grocer New Product Awards 2026. My favourite of all the designs, the Sea Buckthorn Fizz can feature a walking puffin inspired by nearby Skomer Island.
Barti’s artwork is not just an attractive selling point but is a big part of the brand, recognised internationally – using art to tell the story of Pembrokeshire, Welsh coastal life, pirate heritage and the natural environment. They have a strong relationship with artists and illustrators. Carmarthen-based printmaker Tom Frost created the original Barti label artwork. I like that the website has a tab for recipes for tipples, puddings and delicious things to consume with Barti products. They also offer a subscription service and a frankly epic annual art competition.

MADE OF MORE SALVATION RESCUE BALM RRP £35
We are big fans of natural skincare brands and award-winning skincare brand, Made Of More is high-performance skincare created specifically for midlife skin, making it a thoughtful gift for mums, sisters, partners or friends navigating perimenopause and beyond. Founded after founder Jackie experienced first-hand how dramatically skin can change in midlife, the range focuses on comforting, strengthening and supporting skin rather than simply trying to “turn back the clock”. I have very sensitive, reactive skin anyway and at 39 am seeing my skin become more temperamental to products, less bouncy and drier.
Gift highlights include the multi-award-winning bestseller SALVATION RESCUE BALM, a brilliant SOS treatment for dry, sensitive and redness-prone skin. There are a lot of positive reviews from people with conditions such as eczema and dermatitis. It arrives boxed in a 35g tube containing 90mg of CBG (stem-cell extract) and Uk grown Hemp seed oil to bring intensive calming and comfort to sensitive, sore, dry or irritated skin. With Triple Ceramides to strengthen the barrier and microplastic free Kokoblur® to instantly firm and even skin tone. Deeply nourishing for dry, flaky or irritated areas I prefer to put it on at night to restore my skin. It feels silky, you need half a pea size and it has a very light fragrance that reminds me of Chamomile tea. I would recommend their free skincare quiz on the website, where you can also sign up for emails and get 15% off the first order. You get advice what products to use and I like that I got advised a 2-step routine – not a shed load of products and expense just 1 to use in the morning and 1 at night.

Its product range includes curl cleansers, conditioners, styling creams, gels, mousses and hair accessories. Only Curls is committed to being vegan and cruelty-free, encouraging people to embrace and love their natural hair texture. A popular choice is their satin-lined beanie hats but popular this season are headscarves that protect hair from the elements whilst keeping volume.
This BLACK SATIN-LINED HOODED SCARF is the perfect winter accessory, combining the cosy coverage of a hood with the warmth of a scarf, making it an ideal layer for chilly days. Designed with curls in mind, the hood’s smooth satin lining helps reduce friction, frizz and tangles while helping preserve your natural definition. Finished in classic black, it’s a versatile winter wardrobe staple. The fabric is soft (86% Recycled polyester 14% Viscose Trim) and it is both warm and practical. You can tie, drape or fix it with a decorative broch depending on your style preference. This is an ideal gift for curl-friendly winter wear, especially if you want something stylish that protects curls as well as keeping you warm.

NETGEAR NIGHTHAWK RS200 RRP £99.99.
Founded in 1996, NETGEAR is a leading global technology brand specialising in innovative networking solutions for homes and businesses. Renowned for quality, performance and reliability, its range includes Wi-Fi routers, mesh systems and networking accessories.
A practical tech gift, the NIGHTHAWK RS100 router will help keep homes connected, whether they’re streaming Christmas films, gaming online, listening to festive music or video calling loved ones. Thinking of buying the kids new game consoles for Christmas -make sure the Wifi can keep up! The Nighthawk WiFi 7 Router RS100, which comes with an Ethernet cable and power supply, provides WiFi 7 speeds up to 3.6 Gbps for gaming, streaming, and AR/VR entertainment. The compact, sleek body design blends easily into any space and its high-performance antennas offer up to 1,500 sq. ft. of 360-degree WiFi coverage ideal for medium-sized homes.
But you have a router with your current broadband provider. Why then do you need an upgraded router? Let me explain: setup is easy. For example, I am with Vodafone; I would connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN ports on my Vodafone router to the Internet port on the Nighthawk. You then configure the Nighthawk to operate in Access Point (AP) mode. This means the Vodafone router continues to manage your broadband connection. The Nighthawk creates a new faster Wi-Fi network around your home. Connect your devices to the new Nighthawk Wi-Fi instead of the Vodafone Wi-Fi. You can switch off the Vodafone router’s Wi-Fi to avoid having two competing wireless networks. What benefits do you get? We have a lot of devices so It would mean better handling of those, and we do not get good coverage in some rooms, so the Nighthawk WiFi 7 Router RS100 would improve the connection between the router and devices. The Nighthawk app makes it easy to install your router and manage your network. An optional NETGEAR Armor™ subscription, powered by Bitdefender®, adds enhanced security and privacy across your network, connected devices, and personal data, including advanced threat protection, VPN, and more. A straightforward, high-impact upgrade that delivers immediate results.

ALUMIERMD NEW HYDRARESCUE EYE PADS RRP £29.00.
AlumierMD is a premium, science-led skincare brand launched in 2016, specialising in professional-grade skincare developed by a global team of scientists, physicians and skincare experts. Combining advanced technology with clinically researched ingredients, its products are designed to target a wide range of skin concerns and promote long-term skin health.
Following the success of AlumierMD’s Biocellulose Mask AlumierMD has just launched the new HYDRARESCUE EYE PADS – under-eye pads designed to visibly refresh, hydrate and smooth tired-looking eyes in minutes, ideal for post-flight, post-late night or pre-event skin. The perfect size stocking filler. They use advanced biocellulose technology to maximise contact with the skin and lock in hydration, alongside ingredients including Matrixyl® Synthe’6™, niacinamide and liquorice root extract to target dryness, puffiness and the appearance of fine lines. Place each eye pad with the tapered end at the inner corner of your eye (near the tear duct) and the wider end following the natural contour just beneath the eye area. The fragrance-free clinical grade formula is gentle; my skin can often be sensitive but after 10 minutes left on my skin it just felt smooth and soothes with no hint of redness. Unlike other standard undereye patches I have sampled the Hydrarescue eye pads held firmly to my under-eye contour, I could walk around with them on and they do not shift. They free of Dye, Parabens, Sulfate and Phthalates. 4 x 4ml is included in the box and each pair is packaged separately, and each pad has a peel off liner.
