Looking for gifts that gives back?

You’re in the right place. We curate beauty products that make an impact on the world and the people who inhabit it. While we love the way beauty products make us look on the outside, we love – even more – how certain beauty brands and their products make a positive impact on the people and places they come from.

Fair trade, ethically sourced, sustainable, and of course, clean, beauty products that are sourced from around the world by farmers and producers who make a fair living sourcing the ingredients.

From fair trade coconut oil-infused skincare that helps to support Filipino communities to stay out of poverty and human trafficking to upcycled sari hair accessories made by female Indian artisans, all our beauty gifts are specially curated to make you feel good about giving a gift that your recipient will love and find special meaning in.
