2022 Valentine Gift Guide

When it’s right, you know it.

It just feels good on your skin, and oh wow, the scent really does it for you.

In fact, you can’t get enough. It’s so delicious you just want to roll around in it… naked. You might be a little obsessed. Can something that feels this great actually be good for you?

We’re talking about the perfect body and skincare, of course.

When you find the one you love, there’s nothing like it. Your whole day is transformed, punctuated by feel-good moments each time you wash or moisturize. Catching a subtle hint of essential oil on your skin evokes the sense of being loved and cared-for. Some say it’s better than lingerie (and certainly more comfortable).  

Whether you’re spending this Valentine’s Day alone or with another, the gift of self-care is always appropriate.

Here are some of our favorite offerings for your Valentine (especially if that Valentine is you!):

❤️  Egyptian Geranium & Bergamot + Haitian Vetiver & Mandarin Rind Body Oil Set - This duo of Body Oils from our new, Plastic-free Bodycare collection is supremely suited for massage and offers skin a natural, healthy-looking glow. Egyptian Geranium & Bergamot is a luxurious floral and citrus-infused immersion. Haitian Vetiver & Mandarin Rind evokes a rich, exotic feeling. Created with our signature hydrating blend of organic Sunflower, Jojoba, Olive, Coconut, and Sesame Seed oils, these offerings leave skin deeply nourished and ready to be touched.

❤️ Canadian Pine & White Sage Bodycare Set - For those looking to cultivate a romantic cabin-in-the-woods vibe, our best-selling Canadian Pine & White Sage Body Wash and Hand Soap offer the gift of a woody and clarifying cleansing ritual. Aromatics of fresh Pine, Sage, Lavender, and Clove are energizing and invigorating, and the Body Wash makes an excellent bubble bath. Infused with skin-soothing Aloe, both help leave skin hydrated after cleansing and will serve as a beautiful and thoughtful reminder of your Valentine adventure long after the day is over. 

❤️ Moroccan Cedar & Sandalwood Delight Set - This generous collection of Body Wash, Body Lotion, and Hand Cream offers your boo a spicy, exotic, and energizing daily hydration ritual. Inspired by the markets of Marrakesh, aromatics of woody Cedar, dreamy Australian Sandalwood, and bright, fresh-pressed Citrus rind are an uplifting self-care package. Created with organic-rich Aloe and Coconut oil, and powerful antioxidants including Turmeric, this feel-great gift has many anti-aging benefits.

And if you’re looking for some Valentine’s Day treats to make the day even more special, we’ve rounded up a thing or two.

• Start the day off right with these Vegan Fluffy Japanese Pancakes (HOTTOKĒKI) from Okonomi Kitchen. (Note: these take more time than western-style pancakes and you’ll need a few ingredients you might not have on hand, so plan ahead!)
• Continuing the Japanese theme, these Vegan Spicy “Tuna” Rolls from Cook With Candy make a fabulous finger food (and super romantic to make together).
• If you’d like a romantic cocktail for your Valentine, we’re sending you to Italy. The Aperol Spritz “tastes like summertime in Italy and looks like a golden orange sunset” (and goes down fabulously in the bath). You’re welcome.

Wishing you the best Valentine’s Day that is, all romance aside, rich in self-love.
