Beam
Help someone's inner light shine a little brighter this holiday season with a new shade of lipstick from Real Housewives of Atlanta personality Carla Miles. The shades of these lipsticks and plumpers are almost as beautiful as the story behind the Beam brand and Carla Miles herself.
Part of what makes these beauty products unique is that each purchase supports members of the community who have suffered from domestic violence. In other words, the gift of Beam products illuminates more than just the beautiful smile of the wearer, and that's something to feel truly grateful for this holiday season.
Conscious Ink
Send a message they can wear close to the heart, literally. Conscious Ink is a custom temporary tattoo brand dedicated to creating inspirational messages that can be worn as small reminders of the motivation and purpose behind whatever challenge one might be confronting.
Created in 2009, founder Frank Gjara wants to help everyone wake up enthusiastically to a life they love. The methodology behind these inspirational messages comes from the practice of manifestation. These small visual reminders become a catalyst for change by disrupting patterns of negative self-talk and silently encouraging each wearer to have more grace.
Now, the brand has expanded to offer a full line of apparel, mindset, wellness, and socially conscious products to uplift, motivate, and inspire the best version of each individual. If you're after a gift where it's the thought that counts, then Conscious Ink could not be a more perfect choice.
Coup Champagne

With a line of specialty motivational or philanthropic labels to choose from, this will be a gift they talk about for many years to come. But Coup's concierge service doesn't stop there.

Hugo Coffee Roasters
Give the coffee lovers on your list a gift that gives back. Woman-owned Hugo Coffee, out of Park City, Utah, focuses on maintaining the highest quality standards for their small-batch coffee.
Every bag of beans or cup served in their cafe supports animal rescue efforts. Recently, they have expanded their pup-inspired line to include a sister brand called Fluffy Cow Coffee that works to support the more humane and ethical treatment of animals.
If that packaging and messaging haven't already captured your heart and brought a special someone to mind this holiday season, their gift sets are sure to do the trick. They have apparel, merchandise, mugs, and more, including gifts for the non-coffee drinkers in your pack, too.

Veriphy Skincare
For all the mindful skincare lovers out there, this is the brand you've been waiting for. This may be the hardest place to shop and not instantly feel the need to buy yourself a little something. Founded by women with a philosophy that turns the whole paradigm of the beauty world as we know it upside down in all the best ways.
Animal cruelty-free, environmentally friendly, clean ingredients backed by clinically proven results. If it sounds too good to be true, it's not! In fact, many of their products are also classified as vegan. As their confounded relays, Veriphy Skincare was made possible by a "science experiment gone wrong" where they discovered a plant-based form of a common beauty ingredient previously derived from animal products. This was the moment that ignited the brand and beauty movement Veriphy is today.
Watered Body Care
Wouldn't it be great if we all felt as merry and bright as the holiday decor we see this time of year? Well, that's precisely what inspired Christelyn Karazin to create the Watered Body Care brand. Through her own experience with troubled skin, she knows just how much not feeling great in your own skin can affect all other aspects of your life.
Her beautifully designed line of products emphasizes quality and educating customers about the ingredients that make their product effective. The easy-to-follow body care protocol makes it effortless for anyone to achieve great results. So, if you know anyone who could benefit from the added confidence of beautiful, radiant skin, consider adding the gift of Watered Body Care to your shopping list this season.
Z. Cioccolato
Are there really enough sweets available during the holidays? Any true sweet tooth will assure you there certainly is not. So, if you're looking for a beautiful but decadent treat to share while entertaining or to give your loved ones, you need to take a look at the selection from Z. Cioccolato.
This San Francisco-based fudge and chocolate confectionery offers everything from modest 6-piece fudge boxes to delux-wrapped gift boxes. If that doesn't sound tempting enough, they also have a fudge of the month club that allows subscribers to sample many of the hundred-plus seasonal flavors they feature throughout the year. With so many delicious options to choose from, you can count on giving this gift year after year to everyone's delight.
Pretty Peptalks
Chivalry, handwritten thank you cards, and wax-sealed invitations are only dead if we let them. Chances are there is someone on your list who loves to journal and enjoys the feel of putting pen to paper. Why not make it really nice paper? Pretty Peptalks is a premium stationery brand offering an extensive line of high-quality papers and envelopes in a variety of different colors, patterns, weights, and textures.
Know someone with a big milestone coming up? Or maybe someone you know has just started a new business or accepted a promotion? Having their own personalized stationery is a great way to share in their accomplishments and give a beautiful gift. If choosing someone personalized stationary sounds like too much, Pretty Peptalks also offers cute gift cards imprinted with their signature bow, reminding us all to treasure all our closest ties.
Infuse Yerba Mate Radiance Eye Cream
Infuse shares a similar ethos that stands to honor the memories, wisdom, and unique beauty that come with age. Their science-backed Yerba Mate Radiance Eye Cream reduces the appearance of any unwanted undereye bags using powerful natural remedies in less than ten minutes.
Maybe you know someone who's been putting in the extra hours this year and hasn't prioritized their usual sleep and wellness routine. Or you know someone who's always looking to mix up their usual skincare routine with something new. In either case, the Yerba Mate Radiance Eye Cream could be the perfect gift.
