What I’m Gifting This Year

Can you believe it’s the holiday season? A month full of happiness and the season of giving! While the Christmas joy, decorations, lights, music, and parties make the atmosphere magical, the act of gift-giving holds a special place in my heart. I love spoiling the incredible people in my life that I truly cherish and appreciate. Being a busy wife, mom and two business owner, I understand that life can be challenging, chaotic, but also very rewarding. This year especially, I want to show my love, gratitude and appreciation to the special people in my life that support me in some loving way. 

Between family, friends, co-workers, teachers, hairstylists, house cleaners, and babysitters, it can feel overwhelming trying to find the perfect gift for everyone. But don’t worry—I’ve got you covered! I have put together a comprehensive holiday gift guide filled with my favorite beauty and wellness items, that I guarantee anyone will love. I hope this gifting guide inspires you or makes your holiday shopping a little easier.

HAIRCARE

Kerastase Hydrating Hair Oil– Unlock the secret to healthy, shiny hair with one of my favorite go-to hair products. Kerastate Hydrating Hair Oil is a staple in my haircare routine, keeping my hair fresh and nourished daily. Hydration for your hair is as important as hydration for your skin! This is an excellent hair oil suitable for all hair types.

The thicker reeds saturate thoroughly, allowing release of their scent consistently throughout the day, rather than having to be activated, like a candle. You can leave the reed diffuser all day long and it will do the work for you – even during the night! We use only the highest quality essential oils and fragrance. 

FRAGRANCE

Chanel Blue Cologne for Men – No matter the age of that special male in your life, they deserve a fragrance of sophistication. Chanel Blue is a luxurious aromatic woody perfume. It’s my favorite cologne for Sal! 😉

My Favorite Leggings- 1st Phorm– Give the gift of style, comfort and support with these Elements Leggings. Whether you’re crushing a EMOM workout, at hot yoga, or enjoying a casual day out, these Element Leggings will be your new favorite go-to workout pants. The high waistband is flattering for any figure and the high performance material is like no other. Available in 3 staple colors. 

My Favorite Tank- 1st Phorm– The perfect workout tank top with a built in bra meets style. Pair the Solstice Tank with your favorite leggings for the perfect gym look, or throw on a jacket and your go-to sneakers for a laid-back, athleisure outfit that will take you from your workout to errands in chic style. I love the square neckline and that it comes in 6 different colors. Of course, black and white are a staple in every woman’s wardrobe. 

HydroJug + Hydration Sticks – My favorite hydration combination! One way to help boost my hydration and water intake is by pouring one of these amazing tasting hydration sticks in my water. This amazing 40 ounce water tumbler keeps water fresh all day long and is leakproof. There really is something to say about drinking more water when you have a cute, fancy cup! I love the convenience of the flipstraw and that it fits in your car cupholder. Available in black, white & pink. 

1P hydration sticks are convenient, taste great and really help balance electrolytes. They come in Citrus, Strawberry & Lemonade. Hydration sticks are perfect for proper hydration before, during or after your workout and add a nice flavor to water.
