Our Favorite Clean Skincare Gift Sets for the Holidays
Mistletoe? We think you mean mistle-glow. Become the gift-giving favorite with these clean skincare holiday gift sets.
1. The Essential Face Set
Here you are, absolutely glowing for your holiday pictures.
And premature aging? Never heard of her.
The ingredients responsible for your new glow are none other than 100% grass-fed beef tallow balm, activated charcoal, and aloe vera juice.
You’ve learned that consistent routines and essential products are the keys to youthful and vibrant skin.
The Essential Face Set tackles just this: helping you build consistent habits with nutrient-dense ingredients that lock in moisture and change your skin for the better.
We recommend this skincare gift set for beginners and for people who don’t want to commit to a long skincare routine (this one is five minutes, tops!).
The products included cover all the basics and are helpful for:
- Teenagers with acne
- Redness and sensitivity
- Anti-aging
- Hormonal acne
- Everyday upkeep
2. The Skincare Starter Set
This skincare gift set is a new release—just in time for Christmas. Although it’s considered a beginner set, we recommend it for anyone who wants to take a deep dive into skin health. Whether you’re looking to prevent future signs of aging or you have current skin issues you’d like to resolve—the Skincare Starter Set includes everything you need.
Here’s how it works:
Use the Seabuckthorn Cleansing Oil for this ancient skincare ritual. Instead of stripping the skin of natural oils, an oil cleanser helps to promote balance.
Too much oil on your face can increase acne. At the same time, your body produces natural oils for a reason. An oil cleanser helps promote a feeling of safety in your body—sending the message that there is enough oil to go around. In turn, your body should produce less natural oil and find homeostasis.
The goal is to use a nontoxic oil cleanser alongside your body’s natural oil production to create balance—eliminating acne for good and restoring the microbiome.
Tone Your Skin
Another resource to reduce the appearance of acne and wrinkles is a toner. Toner helps to balance the pH in your skin and preps it to absorb moisture. The facial tonic we recommend as a toner is infused with herbs and natural antioxidants, to promote cellular regeneration.
Add a Serum
A serum is a highly concentrated skincare product that seeps deep into the skin, promoting wellness and locking in vitamins. We created the Glow Serum for everyday use—to improve the skin’s health while gently preventing premature aging.
This one contains high levels of antioxidants, plus healthy avocado oil and jojoba oil.
Skincare Maintenance
Self-care night? Does your skin need an extra bit of love during your menstrual cycle?
This mask was created to masterfully hydrate dull skin and target breakouts, puffiness, and redness. With blue C-phycocyanin, raw honey, and fruit acids, it’s also a great intervention for aging skin. Wherever you are in your skincare journey, adding a weekly mask for maintenance is a must—which is why we included The Resurfacing Mask in the Skincare Starter Set.
3. The Ultimate Tallow Balm Set
Obsessed with tallow balm? The Ultimate Tallow Balm Set is also, perhaps, the ultimate Christmas gift. Either your loved one will never run out of tallow balm again (a dream when tallow replaces every cream and moisturizer in your home)—or you can use the different balms as stocking stuffers.
This set includes a whopping five jars of tallow balm—and every essential oil scent includes its own delicious fragrance and unique healing benefits.
What’s included?
- The Frankincense Face Balm
- Unscented Tallow Balm
- Vanilla and Almond Tallow Balm
- Sweet Girl Tallow Balm
- Original Tallow Balm
- Tallow Lip Balm
4. The Mini Tallow Balm and Charcoal Soap Sets
Feeling all heart-eyes for mini skincare products? Us, too.
We created a teeny-tiny tallow balm and charcoal soap set—so your skeptical crunchy friends can try out ancestral recipes without the financial commitment. They make perfect stocking stuffers, too.
We recommend a combination of Charcoal Soap and Tallow Balm for people struggling with acne. Charcoal helps to draw out toxins, gently cleansing the pores. As a soap, it’s a little more intensive than oil cleansing, but still doesn’t strip the skin of nutrients.
Follow up with a tallow balm to lock in moisture and for antibacterial effects.
Must-Haves in Skincare Gift Sets
If you’re new to buying skincare gift sets, you may be wondering what to look for during your online shopping spree. After years of working in the nontoxic skincare industry, we have a few tips for first-timers:
- Look for whole, pronounceable ingredients. Organic ingredients that are fractioned are more likely to lose nutrients in the process. And ingredients you can’t pronounce are likely to be manufactured.
- Get animal-based ingredients that are grass-fed. Seriously, the fatty acid profile in grass-fed tallow is way higher than conventional tallow.
- Don’t settle for fillers. Whether they’re “natural” fillers or not, these ingredients are only there to take up space. Instead, you want to find products without fillers—where every ingredient is focused on bettering the health of your skin.
