Valentine's Day is a great time to get creative with their gifts to each other, but getting your partner something thoughtful and practical — something they can use every day — is another love language altogether. It tells them how much you know them and that you see them.

Below are a few we know SOs will appreciate.

1. Sheet masks

If you’ve been scrolling through TikTok, you may have seen couples doing their skincare routine together to make it another bonding experience. If you haven’t done it with your special someone, make your February 14 all about caring for the skin with these paraben-free sheet masks (P440/set) curated for every occasion and skin concern.

The Sheet Masks are available at Anko Philippines, located at Glorietta 2, Makati City.

2. Multi-Function Workout device

If working out is your thing as a couple, gifting this Multi-Function Workout device (P970) is a perfect idea, which is designed to target the back, chest, triceps, and shoulders in one compact, easy-to-use tool.

This tool can also assist you when doing push-up exercises. The different colors correspond to various angles and intensities.

3. Limited-edition tumbler

To commemorate this year’s Valentine’s Day, giving your special someone a limited-edition tumbler or a mug is a great idea. It's a practical gift that they can use every day.

Starbucks Philippines recently unveiled a Philippine-exclusive Sweet Cherries collection with various mugs and tumblers. You may opt for this 16 oz tumbler (P1495) for a spill-proof coffee container.

The Philippine-exclusive exclusive Sweet Cherries collection is available in Starbucks Philippines stores.

4. Scented candle

There’s no better way to set a mood in any room than by lighting a good ‘ol scented candle (P310). Create a romantic and inviting atmosphere and choose among the scents Almond Latte, Peach Iced Tea, and Espresso Martini from Anko Philippines’s Gourmet Collection.

The Gourmet Collection scented candles are available at Anko Philippines, located at Glorietta 2, Makati City.
