December can be a very chaotic month for many and sometimes things slip from your head, and that is okay. So I’m here to help you and give you some ideas.

Now, most of these last minute Christmas gift ideas are meant to be for girls, but you can adapt them for all your male relative and friends.
For example, instead of a makeup bag, you can get a toiletry bag full of travel size products. Or instead of a cookie mix jar, you can do a minibar in a jar.
Another idea is to fill up a basket or jar with skin care products for men. Like moisturizer, a chapstick, after shave lotion, etc.
1. Cozy Slippers – My Favorite Christmas Gift Idea

Anyone likes slippers, right? Especially in the winter so we can keep our feet warm and cozy.
