Best under £10

Hand Cream from Lavera

Whether he is a handyman or has become hand-sensitive between hydro-alcoholic gels and heavy soap use, your dad will undoubtedly find a hand cream useful.

£ 5.84 on Amazon

To remedy the problem of dry hands, nothing is better than a good hand cream. But do not just pick up the first one that comes along in the bathroom aisle of a department store. There are several key points to consider. We recommend Lavera’s Hand Cream for its non-greasy texture, its composition, including the presence of organic shea butter (essential for preserving moisturisation), its rapid penetration and its effectiveness. In addition, it offers a discreet fragrance.

 

For bearded men

Castor Oil

Known for its moisturising and nourishing properties, castor oil is now a must-have for caring for beard hair. It can also be used to strengthen hair as it stimulates growth.

£ 19.90 on Amazon

Castor oil is a very interesting vegetable oil because of its hair care properties and its adaptability to all hair types. In addition, it also acts as a moisturising cream for the driest of skins! Here we offer you a product from the French brand La Compagnie des Sens, which gets the castor seeds in India before cold pressing them. The result? An unrefined, pure oil certified organic by the Ecocert label.

 

For the thrifty

The wallet has been added to the list of must-haves in this selection. Although it has already made many people happy in the past, it obviously has a bright future ahead of it.

The Amerigo set includes 9 stones, odourless and tasteless, which can of course be used in any other drink than whisky. Chilled in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours, these stones provide the necessary touch of freshness to enjoy your drink.

 

For tech lovers

Smartphone ring holder from Lamicall

Compatible with all smartphones, this sober and elegant ring holder is very practical for keeping the device balanced. This will allow him to watch his videos without having to hold it.

£ 6.99 on Amazon

Available in different colours, this ring has a 3M adhesive that holds the smartphone firmly in place. Therefore, it is best to have a case and avoid applying it directly to the device. Note that it is also designed to be used with the car phone holder from Lamicall. Perfectly compatible, the two magnets attract each other and keep your smartphone firmly in place. So no risk of dropping it.
