Rakshabandhan is just around the corner so it’s time for every sister to do her job i.e. send her brothers hints about what presents she wants to receive! Since beauty products are universally adored, I thought it was time to curate a gift list to make your brother’s life easier. From drugstore items to splurge-worthy products, here are the best things to ask for.
