To build a body care gift basket, choose one scent and carry it through every layer: a body wash, a Body Silk lotion, a matching dry body oil and a body butter, plus an African net. One scent means the products layer instead of clashing. Three budgets follow - about $50, $100 and $150.
How do you build a body care gift basket?
Start with one scent, then build the routine in the order it gets used: a net to exfoliate, a wash to cleanse, Body Silk for damp skin, a butter, then a dry body oil to seal. Fill the gaps with a towel and a card, and write the order of use on the note.
- Pick one scent to run through the whole basket. This post uses Seychelles.
- Start with the African exfoliating net - also called an African net sponge or sapo. It is the piece most people have never owned, and the one they keep using longest.
- Add the Seychelles Body Wash.
- Add the Seychelles Body Silk Lotion.
- Add the Seychelles Scented Dry Body Oil.
- Add a Body Butter.
- Fill around them with what you already have: a rolled hand towel, a candle, a handwritten card.
- Write the order of use on the card so the basket becomes a routine, not a shelf display.
What goes in a body care gift basket?
Five pieces make a complete basket: an African net, a body wash, a Body Silk lotion, a dry body oil and a body butter. Together they cover every step of a shower routine, from exfoliating to sealing, so whoever opens it can use everything the same night without buying anything else.
- African Exfoliating Net ($17.99): a long woven net that reaches the whole back and dries fast between showers.
- Seychelles Body Wash ($15 for 4 fl oz, $28 for 8 fl oz): a creamy wash that lathers up on the net.
- Seychelles Body Silk Lotion ($28, 8 fl oz): goes on damp skin straight out of the shower.
- Seychelles Scented Dry Body Oil ($42, 3.4 fl oz): sinks in fast and seals everything in.
- Body Butter ($25, 4 oz): whipped shea and mango butter, freshly handmade to order.
What are three gift baskets at three budgets?
About $50 gets a net, a travel-size wash and a dry body oil sample. About $100 adds a full Body Silk and a full-size oil. About $150 is the full ritual with a larger wash and a butter. Prices below are current website prices, before shipping or tax.
| Basket | What's inside | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Starter (about $50) | African Exfoliating Net $17.99 + Seychelles Body Wash 4 fl oz $15 + Seychelles Scented Dry Body Oil sample 0.2 fl oz $12 | $44.99 |
| Everyday (about $100) | African Exfoliating Net $17.99 + Seychelles Body Wash 4 fl oz $15 + Seychelles Body Silk Lotion 8 fl oz $28 + Seychelles Scented Dry Body Oil 3.4 fl oz $42 | $102.99 |
| Full ritual (about $150) | African Exfoliating Net $17.99 + Seychelles Body Wash 8 fl oz $28 + Seychelles Body Silk Lotion 8 fl oz $28 + Seychelles Scented Dry Body Oil 3.4 fl oz $42 + Unscented Body Butter $25 | $140.99 |
There is no Seychelles body butter on its own, so the full basket uses Unscented Body Butter, which wears under the Seychelles scent without competing. Every CCC dry body oil contains sweet almond oil, so skip the oil if they have a nut allergy.

Should every product be the same scent?
Yes. When the wash, Body Silk and oil share one scent, each layer builds on the last instead of competing with it, so the scent stays close for longer. Mixing three different scents in one basket means they cancel each other out by lunchtime. Pick one and commit to it.
Seychelles opens bright with bergamot and bay leaf, moves into fir needle and cedarwood, and settles into sandalwood, vanilla and a soft smokiness of tobacco. It is warm without being sweet, which makes it an easy pick for anyone on your list.
Put the order of use on the card: Body Silk on damp skin first, then body butter (all over is fine), then the dry body oil last to seal it all in.
Is it cheaper to buy a ready-made set?
Usually, yes. The Seychelles Winter Skin Rescue Bundle is $133.20 for an 8 oz body wash, sugar scrub, Body Silk, dry body oil and body butter. Bought one by one, those five come to $148, so the set saves $14.80. It does not include a net, so add one for $17.99.
The Winter Skin Rescue Bundle also comes in Cocoa Moringa for $153.90, with a 16 oz body wash. Build your own basket instead when you want to choose sizes, skip a step or stay under $50. Every ready-made option lives in our Body Care Bundles collection.
Frequently asked questions
Which scent has every product?
Cocoa Moringa: body wash, Shimmer Body Silk, dry body oil and body butter, all in one scent. Seychelles has the wash, Body Silk and oil; pair it with Unscented Body Butter.
Can I add a gift card?
Yes. A Cee Cee's Gift Card comes in amounts from $25 to $150 and is delivered by email, so you can print it and tuck it into the basket.
Do you sell baskets?
Not right now. Use a basket, box or tray you already have and line it with a towel.
When should I order?
By December 10 for Christmas. Body butters are freshly handmade to order, so a basket with a butter needs a little extra time.
