Unique Gifts For Sister On Rakhi: Raksha Bandhan Gifts For Sister She’ll Truly Love
Skincare Essentials
Skincare is a form of self-care that we think everyone should practice, and chances are your sister too is into it.
Whether your sister is a skincare expert or someone just beginning to practice this form of self-care, gifting her skincare essentials will definitely be a thoughtful gift idea.
Ask her what her skin type is (don’t reveal anything about the gift when she asks you “why?”) and buy suitable skincare products for her.
Moisturizers, sunscreen, night cream, exfoliating cream, eye masks, lip balms, body lotions, there’s a plethora of options.
And if you’re stuck, why not just go for a compact travel-sized skincare kit?
These contain well-curated compact bottles that your sister can use not only at home but also when she’s traveling.
Here are some of the best skincare kits you can get online:
- The Face Shop Rice & Ceramide Moisturizing Skincare Kit: INR 806
- Forest Essentials Sheen Skin & Hair Treasures: INR 2975
- Soul Tree Self-Care Essentials Kit: INR 2255
Books And Literature
If your sister is a bookworm, we just know that she’s looking for the next new book to read! Whether your sister is a fan of sci-fi, fiction, adult romance, thriller, or any other genre, gifting a book (or a set of books) from her favorite genre is a brilliant gift idea.
Plus, if you want the gift to feel even more special, you can hide small, thoughtful notes between the pages of the book(s).
Not just that, you can also gift her handmade or purchased bookmarks, highlighter pens, and other book accessories to elevate her reading experience.
Here are some of the best books you could gift your sister:
- The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins

Tech And Electronic Gadgets
Whether your sister is always plugged into her playlists, buried in books, or dominating online games, there’s a perfect gadget out there for her.
And let’s be honest, you don’t need to be a geek to be a fan of tech products – they’re more of a necessity than a luxury.
If she’s a music lover, consider getting her a pair of high-quality wireless headphones or noise-cancelling earbuds. For the bookworm in her, the latest Kindle can store thousands of stories in one sleek, portable device.
And if she’s a gamer girl, surprise her with a Nintendo Switch, Playstation, or any other gaming accessory she’s had her eyes on.
