Deeper Than Skin Health

Korres Wild Rose Vitamin C Brightening Sleeping Facial is an overnight facial for those evenings when you have no time but want to look especially radiant for your AM meeting <3

A few faves from k’Pure Naturals: Settle Down Calming Essential Oil Spray, Sugar Mama Ultra-Rich Moisturizing Scrub, and SMOOCH Super Moisturizing Lip Balm (I keep one of these everywhere- home, car, purse!!)

Scandinave Spa treatment – I had the best massage of my life here, but they’re particularly well-known for their bath access. What a treat!

Polo Health’s I.V Vitamin Drip – Myer’s Cocktail Infusion is packed with vitamins and minerals to help your loved one feel fighting-ready after all the fun holiday festivities have passed. An Initial Natruropathic Doctor Consultation (1 hour) could also be a great kick-start for anyone who is eager to re-prioritize their health after a slump.

A Spa Utopia treatment – I LOVE their Spa Utopia Retreat Package (includes a massage, facial, and manicure) as well as their Tranquility Body Wrap.

Comfort Zone Skincare (Anything from the holiday collection in the give-away) their Skin Regimen Retinol Booster is a great choice, or their overnight Renight Cream.

Milani Color Fetish Lipstick I LOVE their unique and interesting packaging, and I LOVE the pink colour called Lingerie. It’s actually the one in this Tik Tok!! 

Within Us is Vancouver-based and female owned and operated! You’ve definitely seen their stuff around. Their ReHydrate TruMarine Collagen 20 stick pack would be great as a stocking-stuffer and an on-the-go purse stuffer. I also loveeee their Coconut Creamer + TruMarine Collagen for coffee & cutting out dairy!

 

Feel Good Beauty

This St. Tropez x Ashley Graham Limited-Edition Ultimate Glow Kit is AMAZING to supplement your Vitamin D pills when the weather gets crummy 😉

Red Carpet Ready by Christina Makeup Services gift your bestie a treat with makeup to help her shine for a special occasion, or just to feel good about herself!

NuFace Trinity Pro All-In-One Limited Edition Collection Kit for some AMAZING toning, lifting, smoothing, and contouring!!

Nude by Nature’s Luxe Beauty Ultimate 15 Brush Set is their HERO product this year. My other personal favourites of theirs are the Radiant Loose Powder Foundation (it’s genius) and their Creamy Matte Lipstick and Moisture Infusion Lipgloss!! ‘Rose Quartz’ is my go-to, but I also love ‘Ripberry’ this time of year and ‘Coral Pink’ in the summer. 

Jane Iredale’s Purple Magic Mitt for removing makeup with only water, Eye Shadow Palette (the colours are so perfect for holiday looks) and Lipgloss Trio (super flattering and well-formulated for plumping and reducing the appearance of fine lines.)

Comfy & Stand-Out Clothing

Toques From the Heart I LOVE their Merino Toques in Off-White or in Tan.

The Chloe Jacket by Toboggan – I’m obsessed with the silhouette and the knit details, especially on the sleeves.

The Organic Fleece Jogger in Dusty Rose from Pure Balanxed is SO comfy and cute. Match with their Crewneck and you’re off to the races! Also I LOVE their messaging on this Classic Crew: “I am Enough”!! Ugh it makes my heart sing. Also look at that sleeve detail- I am alllll about it.

I don’t think you can ever have enough jammies and the Cozy Friday Romper in Poinsettia Plaid by Smash + Tess is such a classic style that would look great on the ski hill!! They also JUST released this Shay Romper in a lovely elevated colour for the holidays and a fancy drawstring waist and POCKETS!! Helloooo, Mom on the go!! More on this later for sure.

Park & Fifth dresses…. I love the Sinclair Dress in Red Terrazzo or the Melrose Midi Dress in Tuscany (doesn’t it just look like a glass of champagne??)

 

Touching Jewelry & Accessories

Paris Jewellers I love these beautiful Heart Drop Earrings in Gold Plated Silver and/or the classic Engraveable Disc Pendant <3

Saje’s Sugar Plum Fairy Duo for some festive body care… delicious warm cinnamon and bright orange (drooooool!)

FAIR Jewelry are Vancouver-based, WOC-founded and owned, AND super affordable– this is SUCH A GEM for gifts. I love, love, love their Celeste Tennis Bracelet for its dainty design and the Encrusted Croissant Ring for its shape (and also maybe because the name reminds me of some of my favourite breakfasts?) 

I picked out a few goodies from The Cross Design…. You can never have enough ornaments- they’re SO sentimental and decorating the tree every year is like an emotional journey remembering where all of them came from! The Silver Champagne Bottle Ornament or the Champagne Glass Ornament are both SUCH cute picks. Or, if you want to give something a little bigger to drink out of, go for the Monterey Champagne Flutes or these Alexis Flutes (you can NEVER have too many!!)

1. Calluna Wall Mirror | 2. Small Flocked Tree with Jute Base | 3. Bean Bag Chair  | 4. Primrose Haven Side Table | 5. Standing Carved Deer  | 6. Cheetah Print Throw Blanket  | 7. Pink Cadillac | 8.
