This year we decided to round up some of our favorite gifts a little early. Due to the high volume of online shopping, you may experience some delivery delays and it is wise to check off your naughty and nice list sooner rather than later. As always our guide is carefully selected and gifts follow our main brand pillars.
Deliberately Considerate Gift Guide
For the home cook or chef on your list, Diaspora Co. is more than a spice shop. This woman founded brand is dedicated to change the way the spice trade industry operates by creating both fair and ethical trade partnerships, paying farm partners an average of six times above the commodity price. Spices are grown with love and without chemicals with full website transparency. If you are feeling overwhelmed with all the beautiful and delicious options available, check out the Diaspora Co. gift guide curated just for you.
What is better than the gift of convenience? One that is also zero waste, reusable packaging, sustainable and delivered to your door! The Loop tote is an easy and exciting way to shop for personal care, food, household items and more right from your home. Once you are finished with the products, simply refill your tote with the empty containers and place outside for pickup. To read more about how this works, check out the feature in our fourth issue of Deliberately Considerate.
Our home has become our office as many of us are working remote. Creating a calm and peaceful environment is key to unwinding even after a long day in the same space. An ultrasonic diffuser is an eco-friendly alternative to candles and reed diffusers. The diffuser only requires water and a few drops of essential oil. It also lights up for a serene glow. We recommend the Ultrasonic Diffuser by Whole Foods, which can be purchased in store or on Amazon.
Jewelry is a popular gift for the holiday season, but sadly costume and fashion jewelry are not sustainable. Read our previous article to discover why this type of jewelry is not sustainable and more eco-friendly alternatives. We recommend choosing a special, unique, and elegant piece from SOKO. This women owned, B-Corp, utilizes mobile technology to connect marginalized and talented Kenyan artisans directly to the global marketplace.
Any makeup enthusiast on your list knows that the holiday season is all about red lipstick. The Lip Suede palette from Westman Atelier contains four highly pigmented gorgeous shades of red. This clean beauty lipstick is free from harmful chemicals and packed with 16.5% cold pressed cherry oil for a naturally pigmented pout.
Threads 4 Thought offers luxuriously soft, high quality clothing for men and women that are both sustainably made and ethically sourced. Whether you are purchasing a matching set or a few basics, you can rest assured knowing that this brand is putting people and the planet first.
