build a Valentine's Day basket

what makes a great Valentine's Day gift basket?

If you want to truly impress your Valentine, create a custom gift basket full of goodies that offer comfort, sweetness, and a touch of everyday luxury. Body and lip care make thoughtful choices because they're practical yet delightful, easy to personalize, and will pamper and comfort long after February 14th.

Here's how to build a Valentine's Day gift basket that makes her feel relaxed, cared for, and seen. 

step 1: start with a cozy, thoughtful base

Choose something she can reuse — a chic woven basket or keepsake box — to make the gift feel elevated and intentional. Go for Valentine’s hues like red and pink, or select colors that match her personal style.

Once you’ve found the perfect basket, take presentation up a notch by layering the bottom with tissue paper, a soft scarf, or a cozy throw blanket. This creates a beautiful base for the self-care treasures you’ll fill it with — instantly giving the gift a polished, luxe feel.

step 2: add everyday self-care favorites

Next, fill the basket with skincare and lip care essentials you know she’ll adore. Think of smoothing body lotions, delicious lip balms, sweetly scented body mists, or hand creams that fit perfectly in her bag.

These everyday self-care favorites strike the perfect balance between practical and indulgent, encouraging her to slow down and treat herself long after Valentine’s Day is over.

step 3: choose a signature scent she'll love

Scent makes every gift more personal and memorable. Whether she loves warm gourmands, fresh florals, or bold fruity notes, choosing a cohesive fragrance theme gives your basket a curated, intentional touch.

Select scented lotions, lip care, and body mists that complement one another without overpowering. A signature scent transforms simple skincare into a meaningful sensory experience she’ll associate with you.

step 4: finish with small personal touches

The final details make all the difference. Add a handwritten note, heart-shaped accessories, cozy socks, a silk sleep mask, or her favorite chocolates — little extras that show how well you know her.
These thoughtful touches show that you notice the small things and make the gift feel uniquely hers.

Valentine's Day gift sets she'll love

Short on time? Choose from Valentine’s Day skincare and lip care gift sets — expertly curated for effortless gifting. These ready-made sets take the guesswork out of creating something special while still delivering that personal, thoughtful feel.

Pick sets that pair nourishing, fragrance-forward body care with deliciously scented lip balms. Whether gifted on their own or tucked into a larger basket, they make it easy to give a Valentine's surprise that feels luxurious, heartfelt, and full of love.
