Now that I’ve finished posting my gift guides for her (you can find those here: beauty, self-care, zen, nature), I’ve got to balance it out by sharing some things for the guys in your life. This is my first holiday gift guide for him that I’ve shared and it was really fun to find and collect all the sustainable, eco-friendly and even green beauty related items for this list. My husband approved the items and said he’d want most of it himself so hopefully the guys in your life will like them too. Of course, it’s a relatively gender neutral collection (except maybe the beard products?), so these items could work for anyone on your shopping list who appreciates sustainable goods!
