I've been combining beauty and wellness in my gift guides because I think these two go hand in hand. After all what is the point of looking good if you're unwell. I tried to curate picks that range from the affordable to the luxe. As with all my other gift guides, I'm including some selections which happen to be personal favorites (2, 3, 14, 16, 18, 19, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 29) as well as a few that might also be on my own wish list (5 & 8). For the beauty items, I made a conscious effort to choose products that are cruelty-free and formulated without any questionable ingredients. Don't miss my other gift guides!
