We read an article recently that had been written by a miffed 
husband. It seems his wife had remarked all year long that what she really wanted was a facelift for Christmas. While this husband couldn’t quite figure out how to gift a facelift, he really did want to please his wife. So imagine his glee when he walked into Macy’s and saw an expensive jar of “facelifting beauty cream.” He bought the largest jar of this pricey brand, had it beautifully wrapped in festive tissue and bows and proudly placed it under the tree, confident that he had fulfilled a Holiday dream. Alas, his wife opened the present, the color rose in her cheeks and she stormed off to the bedroom in tears. Woops.

Giving personal care as a gift can be fraught with pitfalls, so if you’re wishing for some pampering this season, a little hand holding may be in order. After all, how does your significant other say, “I love you” with beauty without having you read it as, “You’re not looking so hot … Sweetie”?
