Clean Beauty Gifts for Everyone on Your Holiday List

By Catherine Santino | November 17, 2021

There’s really nothing better than watching someone’s face light up as they open a gift. That little spark of joy is what the holiday season is all about — and it’s the inspiration behind our 2021 holiday collection. Along with the magic of thoughtful gift-giving, our holiday gift sets are as planet-friendly as ever, with sustainable elements like plant-based trays, makeup bags made from recycled plastic bottles, and beautiful brush handles made from responsibly sourced wood. Plus, everything comes in ready-to-gift, fully recyclable, totally plastic-free boxes made from recycled paper — so there’s no need for additional gift wrapping (win-win!).

And, of course, each item in our holiday collection is packed with the good-for-skin ingredients we’re known for. From plastic-free eyeshadow palettes to 100% vegan skincare, you can feel good about giving clean, conscious beauty. Read on to discover the best holiday makeup and skincare gifts — both fan-favorites and brand-new clean beauty essentials — for everyone on your list.
