Top 10 Amazing Birthday Gifts for your Sister
There are many special women in our lives. Our mothers, aunts, friends, mentors and daughters are incredibly important but sisters are the best. You might get into fights due to little disagreements but your sister is and will always be your sister. You will always love her. Sisters have watched you grow, helped you in keeping your secrets from mum and dad, she’s been as excited over your first kiss just as you were and she has never forgotten your birthday or wedding anniversary. It is therefore very important that you reward them with an awesome gift on their birthday. The following gifts will surprise her and even deepen your love for each other.
- Themed Birthday Party
With her travel destination in mind, plan a birthday party with all the details of that place. A Paris based Party and cake with every invited party dressed in the high French designs; she will be over the moon. If she is fond of a book or a TV- Series, take the opportunity to create a themed party around her favourite fantasy world. All guests should also dress in line with the theme. Be sure to carry tissue.
- Jewelry
A good quality piece of jewelry custom-made for them speaks volumes. Sisters are meant to be appreciated and valued. A golden pendant with a locket or one with her initials and they will definitely keep her smiling.
Knowing your sister’s personality is a role that you have to undertake throughout your lives. A fashionista would love glam earrings, if she is sentimental; the engraved, printed or stamped jewelry will be a perfect match for her while your girly-girly sister would love a delicately molded necklace. While picking the perfect metal, consider her preference; some love gold, others silver. Make her happy.
- Books
Sisters take care of each other in all aspects of life. Even if your sister isn’t a big reader, introduce her to the world of books. Whether your sister loves comics, science, history, art or travel, you will always get the right book. It is important for your sister to grow educated and learn all as well as travel. You travel through books. For your book loving sister, get her that book she has been talking about for months. She will appreciate your efforts further if you get it signed by their favourite author.
- Gadgets
Pampering your younger siblings/ sister with the latest gadget in her colour and with the best camera features never goes wrong. They might have been dreaming about that gadget for nights. Add a preferred type of music in the player and some family photos. You never know, she might even turn out to be the best web and software developer!
- Movie Tickets
If your sister loves Star-Wars movies and one is premiering on the big screens, get her tickets. She will love them. You can enjoy sister moments with popcorn/ ice cream. You won’t go wrong with this.
- Gift Basket
Some sisters are hard to please and yours might be one of them. To avoid the disappointment from a single gift, get her a beautiful gift basket with the best wine, chocolate, jewelry, perfumes, lotions and hair accessories. You will be thanked, and hugs and kisses will be flowing your way.
- Savings Account
Teaching your sister good saving habits will have to start from somewhere. Open up a savings account for them and put in a few dimes. To avoid spending, let them have a target and a dream item/ service to save up for. This will inculcate good financial management habits in their lives and you’ll be glad you did that later in life.
- Weekend Get-Away
For your outgoing and lover of travelling, you can gift her air tickets to her favourite destination. The two of you can use that time to bond and catch up. You rarely get the time to catch up on everything in the fast paced society.
- Shoes
Well, ladies love shoes! Get your sister a beautiful pair of heels and she will love you a little more. A good shoe speaks volumes of an individual’s personality. Let her know this as you gift her.
- Spa Session
Ladies and girls love being pampered. A spa session with your sister and mother or your sister and her daughter or friend will be appreciated. Sometimes, all they need is to get away from their busy schedules, relax and bond.
Showing sisterly love is very important because a sister means the world. You might get into fights but she is your sister and you should appreciate them.

Alicia Vikander at the Screen Actors Guild Awards
Makeup by Charlotte Tilbury
Alicia Vikander – winner of the Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role award for her performance in “The Danish Girl” – hit the red carpet in a Louis Vuitton gown with a modern, natural glowing, gilded makeup look created by makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury.
When asked about the look, Tilbury said, “I created a modern, soft smokey eye by using gold shadows to complement the gorgeous gown.”
Below, Tilbury shares the key steps she took to create Alicia’s red carpet look:
1. Charlotte prepped Alicia’s skin by applying her cult-favorite Magic Cream to the entire face and her new Magic Eye Rescue to the eye area. Charlotte Tilbury Wonderglow was applied to create a flawless soft focus finish, which acted as the perfect base to the Charlotte Tilbury Light Wonder Foundation in 8 Dark.
2. Charlotte used her Mini Miracle Eye Wand in Shade 2 underneath the eyes to brighten and add luminosity, and then applied Charlotte Tilbury The Retoucher Concealer in 3 Medium where needed. Charlotte lightly dusted Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Skin Perfecting Micro-Powder in 2 Medium to mattify the skin and create a red carpet-ready complexion.
3. Next, Charlotte used Charlotte Tilbury Brow Lift in Cara D to perfect Alicia’s already gorgeous brows and frame her mesmerizing eyes.
4. For the golden eye look, Charlotte applied her cream shadow, Eyes to Mesmerise, in Bette on the lids and softly blended upwards and underneath the waterline. She then applied the pop shade from her Luxury Palette in The Vintage Vamp to the inner corners of the eyes and to the middle of the lids. To add definition and length, Charlotte Tilbury Rock ‘N’ Kohl in Barbarella Brown was applied to the outer corners of the top lashline. Charlotte finished the eye look with Charlotte Tilbury Full Fat Lashes on top and bottom lashes.
5. To add unbeatable highlight and subtle contour, Charlotte used her red carpet staple, Filmstar Bronze & Glow in Light-Medium, with the Powder & Sculpt Brush to highlight and sculpt Alicia’s beautiful face shape.
6. Charlotte applied Charlotte Tilbury Beach Stick in Las Salinas with her Magic Complexion Brush (NEW – available in March 2016) across Alicia’s cheekbones for a pretty, fresh pink glow.
7. To complete the look, Charlotte lined Alicia’s lips with Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Lip Liner in Pillowtalk and followed with Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Bond Girl.

DIY Chocolate Coconut Sugar Hand Scrub from Celebrity Manicurist and Owner of As U Wish Nail Salon, Skyy Hadley
This sweet and tasty scrub is perfect to revive dry hands and feet! The cocoa in this scrub is rich in antioxidants which are very beneficial to your skin. Skin is very absorbent and will draw the antioxidants from the cocoa, helping to battle free radical damage that makes it look dehydrated and dull.
Ingredients:
1 cup loosely packed brown sugar
1/2 cup coconut oil (in solid form)
1/3 cup almond oil
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
a few drops of coconut extract or essential oil
Directions:
Add all ingredients together in a large bowl and mix until combined. Make sure to mix enough so there are no chunks remaining. To use the scrub, simply rub it all over your hands and feet and let sit for about 5 minutes. Rinse it off using warm water and follow up with a hydrating moisturizer.
