Shop Small Holiday Gift Guide
It’s no secret that small businesses have been hit hard since COVID-19 hit.
Many small businesses have had to close their doors permanently, and many more are struggling to keep their doors open.
This year I have partnered with some incredible small businesses to showcase their products to you for the holidays.
I am also very excited that some of these businesses offered to host giveaways for all my amazing readers (you), so make sure you are following me on Instagram and Facebook as that is where those giveaways will be posted!

All of our products are made with the simplest of ingredients, such as coconut oil, olive oil, sunflower oil, avocado oil, shea butter, cocoa butter and pure essential oils (natural extracts derived from plants) – all things that you can pronounce and many of which can even be found in your kitchen cupboards! As well, we never use palm oil because it is responsible for the deforestation of rainforests, and consequently, it is contributing to the extinction of certain species such as the orangutans and tigers. You can take confidence in knowing that all our products are paraben, phthalate and sulphate-free, which means that not only are we being good to our bodies, but we are also taking care of our planet. When you purchase from us, you are not only supporting our family business but another way of life. Thank you for joining us in making conscious consumer choices!
