The landscape for holiday shopping has changed in a major way. Mail catalogs became influencer ads on social media. Black Friday on, well, Friday became sales every day the week of Thanksgiving. Online shopping can bring almost anything in the world right to your doorstep in a matter of days. Don’t get us wrong, none of these changes are bad changes! It just means that getting the perfect gifts for your loved ones has become a bit more complicated. We here at The Elderberry Co. want to help you out with that and make it simple. Keep reading to find some clean, health-conscious gift ideas for everyone on your list.
For the Men in Your Life: Beard Essentials
Whether he is your husband, boyfriend, father, or brother… shopping for men can be a challenge. They can only ask for socks so many years in a row, after all! If the man in your life has facial hair, then help him to elevate his grooming routine with our all-natural Argan Beard Oil Bundle. The lightweight oil hydrates and softens facial hair, and the boar bristle brush and wooden comb both detangle and style. Better yet, the oil smells divine– an important factor, considering the smell will last all day long.
For the Homemaker: Soap + Candles
We all know somebody who is particularly skilled at making their home the most welcoming, cozy environment you can imagine. One easy way this can be achieved is through the home having a delightful smell– things like clean linens, fresh baked goods, soaps, candles, etc. Did you know though, many handsoaps and candles contain certain chemicals that can cause irritation and disrupt hormones? That is why we chose only clean ingredients for our bar soaps and candles. No parabens, phthalates, sulfates, or carcinogens! You can give these gifts without any concern, confident in the high-quality, all-natural ingredients.
For the Skincare Obsessed: Face Oil And Face Lotion
In the winter, it is more important than ever to make sure you are giving your skin the proper care that it needs. For the person on your list who borders on a hobby in skincare, check out our Hydrating Face Oil and Lightweight Moisturizing Face Lotion. Both contain clean ingredients and are free from parabens, sulfates, fragrances, and preservatives. Jam-packed with antioxidant-rich ingredients that restore and balance your skin, this combo brings the luxury spa experience right into your home. Plus, they are suitable for every skintype, so your loved one can use them no matter what.
For the Mug Collector: Wellness Teas
I can’t lie– I probably have about 15 to 20 mugs in my kitchen cabinet, and no two are alike. Who can resist the perfect handcrafted stoneware find, or a kitschy collectible? If you know somebody like me whose cabinet overflows with mugs, or perhaps a coffee lover trying to kick their addiction, then look no further. Our Wellness Teas offer the perfect warm sip that your loved one can dare to drink without having to worry about excess sugar, preservatives, and food dyes, all while providing your body with important nutrients and antioxidants.
For the Sweet Tooth: Honey Straws
The holidays are chock-full of delicious desserts– peppermint bark, hot chocolate, pies, cookies of every kind– you name it. While these are a yummy indulgence, it is good to have them in moderation due to the inflammatory nature of refined cane sugar. That doesn’t mean that all sweets are off-limits, though! For the person on your list who can’t say no to a sweet treat, check out our Honey Straws available in several different flavors. These straws can be enjoyed in drinks like tea or on their own as an easy, on-the-go snack. Plus, raw honey is antimicrobial, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory!
