Cruelty Free Gift Guide 2022
I honestly don’t know where the time has gone this year. One minute it’s January and the next minute it is September and Christmas displays are already in store!
However you like to celebrate, I encourage you to buy thoughtfully this festive season. It is always the thought that counts but we should also give thought to our planet and the resources it takes to create and deliver to our nearest and dearest. It is also important to consider where you are buying from. Are you supporting a local, family run business that does a happy dance every time they receive an order OR is your hard earned money going to the big guys who only consider you a number in their mass produced profit chain?
Below are some of my favourite Cruelty Free gift ideas at the top of my list which I am sure you will love too!
Perfect for: the skincare lover in your life
Contains: The Wanderlightly Dewy Skin Ritual pack contains your complete daily skincare and self care routine and has been lovingly curated to nourish the mind, body and soul.
Your base is well and truly covered with the pack containing a cleansing face bar, clay face mask, toning mist, hyaluronic acid serum, Sacred face oil and a jade Gua Sha.
Sarah is the beauty behind Wanderlightly, a slow, mindfully created and ethical Australian brand that seeks to provide nourishment to both body and earth. Sarah formulates the products using natural and organic ingredients and is proudly plastic-free.
Perfect for: your bestie (or yourself)
Contains: The Loyal Crush Retreat gift box is the gift that keeps on giving! Buy as a one time purchase or subscribe and you will receive a new Retreat gift box quarterly so you will always have something to look forward to. The current box contains Loco Love chocolates (my fave!), Magic Of I Pocket Journal, Little Wilding Co Tea, Loyal Crush Match Magic Clay Mask, Ananda Life Perfume Roller, Eco Wooden Dry Brush and much more!
Loyal Crush is crazy about cruelty free and they only stock brands that love animals. They also look for vegan, organic and sustainably packaged products so you can enjoy shopping with a clear consciense.
Perfect for: the foodie or anyone with a sweet tooth
Contains: Speaking of Loco Love, I have gifted their Lovers Chocolate Box to clients and friends on more than one occasion and let’s just say it has always been well received. The Lovers Box contains 9 different flavours but these are not just any regular chocolates. Loco Love makes decadent, artisanal vegan chocolates using the finest organic, plant-based and whole food ingredients, including organic, fair-trade Criollo Cacao from Peru.
One bite and I promise you will be hooked (don’t say I didn’t warn you!).
Perfect for: Kris Kringle Gift, Your mum or your Teacher
Contains: This calendar features heartwarming images of their beloved rescue animal residents, including, Mister Invisible, Lemonade, Snoopy, Calvin Swine, and Vet Nurse Ruby, along with thought-provoking and inspiring quotes.
I gifted my mum and mother-in-law this calendar last year and they both loved it plus the proceeds go back to the animal sanctuary.
Perfect for: your sustainable sister, bestie, mum or yourself
Contains: I love a good perfume discovery set, it is the perfect way to try the range before investing in a full size bottle. The Recreation Beauty Discovery Set contains 6 x 3ml parfum samples of their best selling scents. My personal faves are Sunkissed and Joyeux but I personally haven’t tried one of their fragrances I haven’t loved!
PLUS when you purchase the discovery set you can earn a $20 credit toward a full sized fragrance so it’s a win win!
Recreation Beauty are an Australian clean, vegan and cruelty free beauty brand specialising in fragrances and oils that are free from toxic chemicals.
Perfect for: Everyone!

This nourishing duo is formulated with natural ingredients, to nurture, plump and colour your lips. Simply line or fill the lips with the liner and then glide on the lipstick to finish the look.
