Say hello to August and the first event of this month–Friendship’s Day. Slated to fall on the first Sunday of the month, which is August 4, 2024, Friendship’s Day remains a crucial day of celebrations for special bonds. Be it a big gang or your own little troop of crazy heads, celebrate this day with tons of gifts and yes, at some fabulous spots to eat and dance. And if you’re looking for some exciting options to surprise your girlfriends with, then allow us to help you.
Skincare Obsessed Sakhi
If your friend is obsessed with skincare, then here’s a new addition to her routine. Estée Lauder’s advanced Night Repair’s proprietary formula includes an exclusive Night Peptide, yeast extract, and hyaluronic acid, and helps optimise skin’s natural repair process with 7 key renewing actions.
Scent Of Love
If you’re running late, then perfumes are the best pick for your friends. Get Kayali Vacay in a Bottle Miniature set for your special buddy. This offers every taste and is a luxurious gifting option for your bestie.
Something For ‘Em Hair
Experiment with your gifting choices and opt for a unique hair extension kit from The Gorgeous Hair. The brand serves to a variety of hair needs from extensions to hair toppers.
Spill The Tea
If your friend is a tea connoisseur, Ilem Japan should be on your shopping cart. Our favourite is the brand’s extensive range of herbal teas, Matcha, Japanese brown rice green tea and a lot more.
Makeup Girlies, Assemble!
Aren’t we all obsessed with makeup tutorials on Instagram, and Friendship’s Day is the best time to gift your bestie all the tools, to put those learnings to some use. Hence, we bring you Praush’s beauty blenders, brushes and luxury lipsticks.
Wanna Get ‘Em Jhumkas?
You don’t need a boy to take you out on a jhumka shopping date when you have a fabulous best friend. Right? Be the one, gifting your bestie an absolutely stylish pair of earrings from Biba India. From coloured stones, and silver danglers to kundan studs, pick your favourites.
Get ‘Em Their Bagwati
Nobody ever says no to a stylish bag, and we bring you Caprese India’s fabulous taste in this category. The brand’s latest Kiara Advani collection is on our shopping radar. The collection comprises mood-bursting colours, laptops and travelbags, touted to be Kiara’s favourites.
Personalised Love!
A beauty platform with personalised skincare plans to meet each customer’s unique needs. From AI Skin Test and AI Foundation Finder to personalised search options, use FOY and get your friend a personalised skincare kit.
Fragrance Of Luxury
This Friendship’s Day, get your bestie every girl’s favourite–Victoria’s Secret. The brand’s newest range includes the Bombshell Isle Fine Fragrance lotion and mist. The set is long-lasting, fresh with a dash of tropical flavour and the newest twist to the signature Victoria’s Secret Bombshell.
The It Dress
A statement dress will be a rather wise choice for your fashion-forward friend. In this category, we suggest this V-neck, midi dress by Guess. The knitted number in red features a braided detail running in the centre with a slit at the back. Isn’t it perfect for the holiday season?
Gift For Your Beauty Lover Bestie
Sephora is the perfect destination for your bestie who loves to shop for all things beauty. Give her the gift of beauty with the Sephora SS24 collection of lipsticks, mascara, nail colours and more. And if you’re feeling generous, feel free to throw in some luxe beauty products available exclusively at Sephora.
Take That Foodie Friend Out
What better than a dinner reservation for your foodie group, right? For a change, opt for a rather unusual aesthetic and get back to the roots of India’s rich culinary culture. We recommend an exclusive display of Pathare Prabhu cuisine by Chef Bimba Nayak. Available at the South of Vindhyas restaurant, Orchid Hotel in Mumbai, the platter serves your taste buds through a variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, featuring Chutney Che Sarange, Bhanavla, Bombay Metkut che, Bombil Atle and more.
So, what’s your pick?
