Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock for the past month, you’ll be well aware that Valentine’s Day is looming on the horizon. There are a lot of things to love about Valentine’s Day, even if you’re single and not even seriously looking for love.
Whether or not you’re in a relationship, it can be a celebration of love itself, in all its many forms. Whether your experience this year looks like a romantic date night with your partner, a celebration of friendship with your best people or a chance to treat yourself all day long, we’ve got some great gift ideas to get you in the mood for love!
A new signature scent
At Clean Beauty Collective we love a new scent to add to our fragrance wardrobe.
Award winning fragrance brand, ONE SEED will get you brownie points all the way with your chosen loved one. Launched in 2009 by functional nutritionist and speaker Liz Cook, One Seed uses all natural ingredients with at least 80% organic content and is gentle on both the skin and the enviornment.
Natural fragrance has the ability to create complex scent profiles that change in depth and character when in contact with skin. So when wearing a ONE SEED perfume, you are experiencing a version of that fragrance that is completely individual to you.
ONE SEED operates with transparency and honesty and conscious choice is at the core of what they do. One Seed donates 10% of profits to organisations such as Collective Shout.
A favourite from the collection is Tides, a clean aquatic, fresh scent that invokes thoughts of sun-warmed bare skin speckled with salt and sand.
A treat from Smile Makers
At Clean Beauty Collective we love the line-up of Smile Makers vibrators, which are fun products designed with female pleasure top of mind. Created in conjunction with insights from thousands of vulva owners, doctors, and sexologists, the range has vibrators for first-timers, beyond, and more.
Chances are high that you’ll find the perfect match for you! We love the fun packaging and sleek design, and the fact that the founders set out to normalise sexual health and wellbeing from day one.
A spa voucher
Who doesn’t love a regular massage or facial, but can’t always justify the spend? This is why the gift of a spa voucher is always well-received, and inevitably used within days of receiving it! Some spas even offer vouchers for customised experiences so a lucky giftee can go with whatever treatments they most feel like on the day, or if you really feel like splurging, a spa day is the ultimate self-care treat for a loved one at any time of year.
A floral subscription
What’s better than receiving flowers on Valentine’s Day? Receiving them every week or fortnight when you’re gifted a floral subscription. More and more florists are adopting this model, which ensures a regular delivery of only the most beautiful, in-season blooms straight to your door. All you need to do is trim the stems and be ready with your favourite vase, how gorgeous is that?
A carefully chosen piece of jewellery
If you know your Valentine well, you’ll have an idea of their signature style and which pieces of jewellery they reach for on a regular basis. If they have a favourite jewellery brand? Even better – especially if the brand has a record of pieces your loved one has bought and can help steer you in the right direction when it comes to preferred materials, styles, stones and more. Try and support jewellery brands that follow ethical practices if you can, and shop local for an added personal touch.
