Recs for exfoliating/enzyme masks

Pollyanna gift.
We are having a "Pollyanna" at work - well really more of a "grab bag" gift. We have to buy a $20 gift for a male or female. I can think of the usual things like wine or a restaurant gift certificate. Does anyone have any other ideas that either a

Scarf/earmuff/outerwear recs? Land's End?
I seldom ever wear scarves or ear muffs or anything like that but this year I am going to, it really helps to prevent sore throats and sniffles I have noticed when I do cover up well before going out in the cold. I don't want to spend a lot of money bu

Casual shoe or a more dressy shoe?

Decadent Desire lotion by VS

"The Shops" by India Knight - what a funny book!
If there is one book to get for the holidays, which is really funny, get "The Shops" by India Knight. The Guardian, a UK newspaper, skewered the book. They did not like it at all. But, it seems the reviewer totally missed the point. It's a book about s
