Sisters are our best friends and worst enemies, we love them and hate them, want to be with them 24/7 and yet crave our own space. But can you imagine a world without your sister?
She’s a powerhouse, your protector, your therapist; she’s basically your second mother! You laugh, cry and bitch together. There are so many reasons why your sister deserves to be treated like the queen she is. But shopping for sister gifts is rarely straightforward, especially when you are looking for a gift for the sister who has everything…and more! So let’s take a look at some unique gift ideas for sisters in the UK that they definitely won’t sniff at! Later, you can check out gift ideas for other women in your life.

30. Luxury Perfume
Perfume is always a special Christmas gift for sisters
Smell is a strange sense; it’s often the way we recognise people way before we see them. This may be the way in which your sister gift lets her know that you care. Be careful when you choose as this big sister gift may be a deal breaker, but get it right and this could just be the perfect birthday or Christmas gift for your sister.

31. Wellbeing and Ancestry Kit
A great gift idea for a sister who is inquisitive about her predecessors
We all reach a certain age and start to get a little curious about who came before us in our family tree.

Great for family tree, DNA or health history researching; who knows what you might find!
Only think your sister’s gift will be useful in the DNA department or want to start making your own family tree?
32. Pretty Knickers
A gift idea that sisters rarely remember
We wear them daily (most of us…most of the time!) but we do forget that we can ask for them as a sister gift. We know what women like and what we want to wear! So this makes pretty knickers a really good gift for sisters to buy for each other. Why not give it a go and give gifting knickers to your sister a shot this Christmas?
If you know that a better lingerie gift for your sister would be a thong or if you know her bra size, complete the set.

Create the perfect present for your sister and finish the look, buy her a jacket as well and when she’s absolutely hanging…
34. Organic Mineral Lip Collection
Good gift for sisters who are health, beauty and environmentally conscious at the same time

Yeah, we all know at least one of them, and if this happens to be your sister, this is the best present for your sister. With different colours for her ever changing moods, these lipsticks last the duration and will nourish the lips at the same time.
Why not look into the skin care range or the hair care products as alternative or additional gifts for your sister, too.
