At Clean Beauty Collective we love embracing the spirit of Christmas and holiday gifting, which gives us the perfect excuse for honouring the people that matter most in our lives with a little something special. And if that person is you? We’re not judging, treats to self are always self-care in our books. 

With all that in mind, we’ve curated a guide for those that are looking to give the gift of clean beauty, of thoughtful choices that allow your loved ones to do good for themselves and the planet.

For the Skincare Enthusiast

Yes these types can be a little particular when it comes to their product picks. But they also love the gift of a new discovery that they can fall in love with and add to their already extensive regime.

If the skincare enthusiast in your life errs on the luxe side of beauty, they will love Nuori’s Supreme-C Serum Treatment, a brightening and reviving booster with 7.5 percent pure vitamin C. The freshly blended, intensive treatment helps repair prior skin damage caused by free radicals and offers powerful antioxidant protection for brighter, revived skin, and it’s the perfect antidote to post-silly season skin stress. 

Henné Organics Lip Serum is another fabulous option, a supercharged lip formula comprised of an incredible blend of time-defying oils. The highly potent ingredients help nourish and smooth, promote collagen production, and bolster the lips’ protective barrier, and the stunning glass bottle with 24k gold plated rollerball is a joy in itself!

Or for the facial oil obsessive, opt for a top-up of the OG rosehip oil – Trilogy Certified Organic Rosehip Oil. The epitome of clean beauty, Trilogy’s pure, cold-pressed, wild-harvested rosehip seed oil is ideal for overall skin health as well as scars, stretch marks, fine lines and wrinkles.

And naturally every skincare obsessive will want to protect their good work, which is where People4Ocean Vegan Sunscreen SPF50 comes in. Wax from the Candelilla plant replaces beeswax in this SPF50 award-winning sunscreen, which is mineral-based, 100 percent natural, and vegan. It provides UVA/UVB protection to even the most fragile skin, including children (3 months and over) and comes infused with spa-grade essential oils and organic coconut oil to moisturise and protect.

For the Wellness Devotee

They say what you put on your skin is only half the story, and you’ll find premium ingestible beauty products in every wellness devotee’s kitchen cupboard. We think the wellness fans in your circle will enjoy the gift of Imbibe’s Inner Beauty Bundle, which contains the brand’s Miracle Collagen – scientifically formulated to plump and firm your skin from within. And Beauty Renewal, which unleashes a delicious wave of potent multi-strain probiotics with skin-supporting ingredients which work synergistically to promote gut health and skin hydration.

For the Makeup Fan

These days clean makeup is really hitting its stride, with some incredible formulas that perform beautifully and knock their less-than-clean counterparts well out of the park.

For creating eyes to mesmerise over the summer, makeup mavens will love Aether’s Amethyst Crystal Gemstone Palette, which includes twelve cosmic-inspired shades in shimmer and metallic finishes, that dazzle your eyes with incredible lustre. Formulated with Organic Coconut Oil and Organic Shea Butter to create an uber smooth, buttery texture for one swipe application, each shade is infused with Amethyst Powder to illuminate the skin with its light-reflective crystals. We love that the shades can be worn individually or blended together for a multidimensional sheen that is perfect for summer soirées. The fact that they can be used almost anywhere means this palette is great for festivals and road trips.

Aleph Beauty’s Hybrid Eye Pigment in Incense is another non-negotiable for clean makeup fans and works on eyes and brows.  A powder-creme-pencil hybrid that delivers various looks depending on your mood, you can smudge it into the lash line for a smouldering liner, swipe along the upper lash line to create a bold and graphic line, or blend to a buildable shadow across the lid. 

Top off the look with Aleph’s best-selling Lift/Lengthen Mascara. The key to perfectly defined, natural lashes, Lift/Lengthen Mascara is a consciously crafted formula, designed to lift, define and add volume to lashes on each application. We love that the glass vial it comes in is made from reusable and infinitely recyclable glass when sent back to Aleph HQ in their Re Aleph take-back system. 

And when it’s time to take it all off at the end of the day? Pop some Take it Off Makeup Removal Mini Towels in their stocking for the eco-conscious alternative to makeup wipes.
