How gorgeous are these hand-embroidered stockings? I am so excited to open gifts with Annabel this year and it was time to invest in Christmas stockings for our little family. I bought two in taupe and two in the multi-color. Yes, we only have one child, and no, I’m not pregnant. Just planning ahead 😉 I bought mine locally at Celadon, but you can also purchase them at Nativa, which is a fair trade boutique and website specializing in gorgeous traditional Mexican artisan-made goods for men, women, children and the home. Cost: $72. Purchase them here.
So, I know you haven’t bought your stocking stuffers yet and you are already over-budget and you have no time left. Luckily, Pemberley Jones has some awesome, affordable stocking stuffer ideas, and if you order by 10:00 AM on December 19th, you’ll have them in time for the big day.
Weleda Skin Food is one of my all-time favorite intensive moisturizers. Rough, dry, cracked hands and feet are miraculously healed and it lasts through a few hand-washes. The recyclable tube is small enough to put in a purse, briefcase or desk drawer. Cost: $19 for 2.5 oz. Purchase it here.
RGB Cosmetics Nail Polishes come in the most on-trend, sophisticated colors and they are Five-Free. (No Formaldehyde, no Toluene, no DBP, no formaldehyde resin and no Camphor.) I love Too Red, which looks chic any time of year. Cost: $18 for .4 oz. Purchase it here.
Speaking of RGB, the Nailed It! gift set is such a luxe, useful stocking stuffer. It contains base coat, top coat, and (5) of RGB’s color removal pads. Each of RGB’s pre-moistened 100% cotton perforated pads remove 2 coats of nail color from ten nails and their formula contains no harsh acetate or acetone and no artificial scents or dyes. Retail Value: $46. Cost: $24.50. Purchase it here.
Meow Meow Tweet’s Baking Soda Free Deodorant Cream is the best natural deodorant I’ve ever used and the only one I’ve repurchased (and you know I’ve tried a lot of them). This formula is perfect for sensitive skin and its barely-there scent makes it great for both sexes. Cost: $13 for 2.4 oz. Purchase it here.
One of the all-time best Green Beauty inventions: Waxelene non-petroleum jelly. With hundreds of possible uses, this petroleum and mineral oil-free jelly is better for the environment and better for our bodies and it works. Cost: $16 for 9 oz. Purchase it here.
Acure’s Unscented Argan Oil Cleansing Wipes are great before or after a workout or for you baby’s sticky face. And while they don’t eliminate the need to properly cleanse, (no wipe does) they are better than nothing if you are too drunk to wash your face after Christmas Eve dinner. I don’t know what you’re talking about – that has never happened to me. Cost: $9 for 30 wipes. Purchase here.
Have you been trying to convince your man to switch out even just one product? Weleda’s Green Your Guy Gift Set is a great way to get him to sample a few Clean formulas and it saves you from filling his stocking with batteries and breath mints like every other year. This kit contains Weleda’s Shave Cream, Moisture Cream and Sage Deodorant. (Retail Value: $49.50) Cost: $32. Purchase it here.
