KNEIPP | Shop now!
About the brand
This brand has a special place in my heart. I appreciate how intentional they are about the ingredients they use and the range of products they offer. From their body to face products I have yet to find a Kneipp concoction I do not like. So far I’ve introduced you to their Lady’s Mantle Mask and Lavender Body Oil but those aren’t the only Kneipp products I am using. For my face, I also use their Lady’s Mantle line including the cleansing milk, toner, serum, and moisturizer. I highly recommend it because it is rich in antioxidants, helps fight signs of aging and calming for the skin. This line smells divine and is sure to please someone on your list.

Osea Malibu is a family owned plant-based seaweed skincare brand from California. Their products are natural, cruelty-free, organic and free of synthetic chemicals such as parabens, petrochemicals and sulfates.

3. LE COUVENT DES MINIMES | Shop now!
About the brand
It was love at first rub with Le Couvent Des Minimes. I discovered the brand at a press event and couldn’t get enough of it. It is a French skincare brand with a long tradition. Their products ranging from face and body care to fragrances, are developed following ancient recipes using plant-based ingredients found at Le Couvent Des Minimes de Mane in France. Each product is carefully crafted echoing a time when beauty and wellness were achieved through the use of plants. I’ve had the pleasure of using their products for almost a year now. My favorites are the 3 in 1 Micellar Water, The Cream for Very Dry Skin and The Lotion For Dry Skin. I keep a bottle of the lotion handy because it keeps my skin silky smooth and has a really pleasant clean smell. A beautiful assortment of products from Le Couvent Des Minimes will make someone feel quite special!

4. JOSIE MARAN | Shop now!
About the brand
While we are on the subject of silky smooth skin, I cannot rave enough about the Josie Maran skincare line. I’ve been using Josie Maran products for some time now. I stand behind Maran’s philosophy and mission to create cosmetics that are good for us and for the planet. My favorite products of the moment are the 100% Pure Argan Oil, Pure Argan Milk, Divine Drip Argan Oil & Honey Butter Balm, Whipped Intensive Hand Cream, Whipped Argan Oil Body Butter in Honeysuckle and Sweet Citrus scents. I love how pure the products are and the Whipped formula smells divine and texture does feel smooth like butter. Any of Josie Maran’s products and gift sets will make a great gift!
