You don’t have to be in a romantic relationship to celebrate Valentine’s Day. In fact, for Mayowa Nicholas, the fashion model argues that perhaps the best thing you can do during the season of love, is celebrate yourself — with a couple self-care gifts, of course.

“Treating myself to some ‘me time’ is the ultimate present, and while it goes against the status quo of gifting others during V-Day, it’s a great reminder to show yourself some adoration too,” Nicholas tells PS.

As the star of Victoria’s Secret’s newest Valentine’s Day campaign, the model — who made history as the first Nigerian model to walk for Dolce & Gabbana — knows a thing or two about coveted Valentine’s Day treats; and VS’s latest collection is chock-full of them.

“This year’s collection has so many great, made-to-be seen styles that are perfect for whatever your plans are to celebrate. To me, what sets this collection apart [from others] is the playful incorporation of color – emulating how love can be vibrant, exciting, and unexpected!”

Ahead of the holiday, we asked Nicholas for her best Valentine’s Day gifting recs — both in products that she loves to give and receive. From trusted favorites like comfortable lingerie and a decadent box of chocolates to thoughtful gift ideas like a nourishing moisturizer, keep reading to shop the model’s full V-day gift guide.
