Wellness Gift Guide

It’s gift guide season, and we wanted to share our favorite wellness-themed gifts to give and get! From face masks and fitness, to stress relief and sanitizing, there is a range of price points, styles and solutions. When everyone is under a lot of pressure, isn’t the gift of relaxation or health the best gift of all? We’re hoping to get a fresh start in 2021, and any of these gifts would help you or a loved one start the year off right.

Lush Beauty Sleep Mask - This is the hydrating mask of my dreams! It gives skin the prettiest dewy glow and has both lavendar and valerian root, which are natural relaxants. - D

Ice Roller - I’ve written about this before, but it’s one of my favorite gifts Eloise has ever given me! I use it for undereye bags, to stop a big zit from forming and to sculpt my face when I am feeling puffy and tired. - D

Affirmators Tarot Cards - What a cute stocking stuffer to provide some daily cheer for 2021! There are all different versions of the cards that promise not to be too inspirational but not cheesy or too self-helpy. -E

Accupressure Mat - Ideal for anyone who has back or neck issues, it’s the best at-home way to relax muscles and relieve stress. Whenever I start to feel tension building, I lay on this and listen to a guided meditation. - D

Discover Night Silk Face Masks - Discover Night’s silk face masks help prevent “mask-ne,” feel great on your skin and definitely dress up an outfit! If you know someone struggling with all-day mask wearing, sensitive skin, or trying to maintain their fashion credentials, then these are ideal. They are a little bit on the expensive side for masks, but most definitely worth it (plus they donate 5 medical masks to healthcare workers with each purchase!). - D

Youth to the People Superberry Hydrate + Glow Dream Mask - This is a favorite of both of ours, a super rich overnight treat for the skin chock full of antioxidants and hydrating ingredients. It’s also nice to give skincare gifts from brands that are a little bit more under-the-radar! - D

Blue Light Glasses - These glasses are an essential for anyone who spends all day looking at a screen! J. Crew Factory makes very cute and affordable ones in shades of tortoiseshell that you can wear on Zoom calls and look professional. - D

Megababe Squeaky Clean Hand Sanitizer - Another cute stocking stuffer, this hand sanitizer works and is also super clean and free of all yucky ingredients. Plus it smells great and moisturizes your hands. -E

Yoga Zeal Pink Scalloped Mat - I came across this mat on the Design Darling site and immeadiately wanted one. How cute and preppy is this? It would really upgrade the super old that I’ve been using and add some daily cheer to my workouts. If pink isn’t your color, the brand makes a wide variety of options. -E

Love Wellness Less Stress Kit - A supplement kit that will help you sleep better, digest better, and improve your #mood? I’m in! -E

Bala Bangles - These one pound weights are fantastic for anyone who has gotten into doing pilates or yoga type workouts at home. MWH uses them in her workouts and I’ve been loving mine (or I was until Trucks got ahold of them and chewed them up! Now I need a fresh pair so I’m adding them to my Christmas list). -E

Herbivore Cloud Nine Set - 5 mini essentials to give you glowing skin all over. I’ve become a big fan of the brand this year and this is fun way to try new things or to sprinkle some in to stockings. -E

George and Viv Beauty Advent Calendar - My kids love advent calendars and lately I’ve gotten into giving them to Dinah and our mom so that they have something to open every day in December-it’s such a fun way to make the gift experience last. This one has all kinds of good beauty products at a reasonable price.-E

Crystal Gift Sets - OpenHeartApothecary on Etsy has several different crystal gift sets if you want give someone a touch of zen. They’re also so pretty and I would love to have these cute crystals on my desk, giving me a little bit of good juju and something happy to look at every day. -E

Inslee Farris Twelve Days of Christmas Candles - Another gift that would be so fun to give someone early in December. Dinah gave me an Inslee Farris calendar two years ago, and I’ve loved her artwork ever since. Twelve delicious smelling candles with pretty artwork would be just the thing to bring holiday spirit all month long. -E

Olive and June The Winter Box - I love Olive and June manicure sets, and I’ve been eyeing the kit that came out with all of their winter colors-the green looks really good and I also like the unexpected blue shades that would complement Christmas and NYE colors really well. -E
