Sister’s Day Gifts\"Sister's<\/h1>\n

Got a sister who could use a lift during the dog days of summer? Sister’s Day is Sunday, August 7, and it\u2019s the perfect time to remind your sis how much you love and appreciate her. We\u2019ve rounded up some special ideas for Sister’s Day gifts \u2013 some store bought, some homemade \u2013 to help you show your sister what she means to you.<\/p>\n

Beautiful bath gifts for Sister’s Day<\/h2>\n

Fragrant scrubs are a simple indulgence that most people enjoy. Pick a scent your sister likes and look for other ingredients that mesh with her skincare routine \u2013 almond, coconut or jojoba oil for softening, sugar or salt for polishing.<\/p>\n

Make it yourself<\/h3>\n

Treehugger is a great resource for DIY beauty products that make good gifts. We like their recipe for Vanilla Coconut Brown Sugar Scrub: \u00bd cup each of brown sugar and coconut oil plus \u00bd teaspoon of vanilla. It\u2019s perfect for moisturizing in the shower. Sis not a fan of coconut? Treehugger has recipes<\/a><\/strong> for citrus and mint scrubs, too.<\/p>\n
