Many common holiday gifts, such as lotions, soaps, and candles can contain hidden toxic chemicals that can disrupt our hormones or that have been linked to cancer. We've put together a list of some of our less toxic and more sustainable, perfectly giftable favorites for this holiday season.
- Little Seed Farm Mini Holiday Body Oil $11.99: We love Little Seed Farm's more sustainable glass packaging and the simple, natural ingredients in this luxurious body oil. Package in a mini, 1 oz bottle, this is practically begging to be gifted! The limited edition Vanilla Peppermint is lovely for holiday season (but also comes in other scents if that's not your jam). Consider the larger 4 oz size for even more indulgence.
- Poppy and Monroe Sugar Scrub $30: Locally crafted by a small, woman owned business. This hydrating blend of shea butter, sunflower seed oil, and lemongrass delivers a boost of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, leaving your skin refreshed and rejuvenated.
- rms Mini Lip Oil Trio $35: Like clean skin care, for your lips- aka essential during the cool, dry months. This trio is great for gifting as a set, or splitting apart, and features no endocrine disrupting chemicals commonly found in lip products.
- LEAF razor in Rose Gold $109: this is truly the gift that keeps on giving as this investment piece will last a lifetime. This zero waste razor constructed from stainless steel has replaceable blades (without the icky, mystery-ingredient lubricating strips). Plus, the rose gold!? *chef's kiss*
- Emogene & Co Hydrate Moisture Accelerator $48: this locally made, anti-aging, deeply moisturizing serum is perfect for all skin types and the epitome of luxury. It is packaged in recyclable glass and is even refillable here at our GBB studio!
- Emogene & Co All Purpose Healing Balm $17: This balm really does it ALL. Using simple and transparent ingredients, you can use it on dry spots, cuticles, lips, or as the first step in a double cleansing routine, and is also refillable at our GBB studio.
- Planet Friendly Hair Ties $15: Made from soft organic cotton and durable natural rubber, these hair ties are organic, biodegradable, and perfect for everyday use while being gentle on your hair and kind to the planet.
- Sibling Candle Refill Kit $29: traditional candles may contain petroleum derivatives and non-disclosed fragrances that can release harmful chemicals polluting the air in our homes. Enter this cleaner candle alternative, featuring coconut and soy wax with safer scent oils. Plus they are SUPER fun to make, reusing any upcycled vessel.
- GBB Better Up Consultation $150: We know how overwhelming and time consuming it can be to research better-for-you products. Give the gift of time and care to your loved ones. Let us do the work and create a personalized plan, without hassle or stress for them with a gift card valid for a Better Up Plan
