Caroline's Elite List
Caroline is Skimm Shopping's Senior Commerce Editor. A longtime downtown New Yorker, you can typically find her writing her next romance novel, buying yet another niche perfume, or watching archival Formula 1 races.
Shop Caroline's Gifts
My approach to gifting is mostly whimsy-based — objects with a sense of humor, a dash of indulgence, and that bring the recipient pure joy. I'm also big on gifting niche objects that they might not necessarily think to get for themselves, but end up using on a regular basis. There are plenty of crowd-pleasers for the hard-to-buy-for folks, too.
My bathroom is basically a Cyklar showroom at this point, but their new body scrub is a clear winner for gifting. It melts right into the skin, leaving it super-soft and lightly perfumed with a divine scent — warm, spicy, subtly sweet, and (dare I say) decidedly sexy. The sleek, minimalist tub looks expensive on a shower ledge.
