Grab your mug of peppermint hot cocoa, put on your best ugly sweater, and hang up those string lights, because it’s officially that time. That’s right—it’s finally the most wonderful time of the year. And now that the holidays are here, you deserve to feel ~wonderful~ too. After all, when you look good and feel great, it’ll truly be a jolly holiday season.
Here are our favorite seasonal essentials that’ll have you not only thriving but living your best life this holiday season.
A cozy holiday from Under the Canopy
The holidays are for snuggling up in comfy blankets, so what better way than to cozy up with Under the Canopy’s soft and luxurious sheets and towels. Under the Canopy, an organic cotton bath and bedding brand exclusively at Bed Bath and Beyond, makes their sheets and towels from organic cotton grown without harmful chemicals or dyes, which conserves water and energy during production and reduces your carbon footprint. So, not only will you feel super cozy this holiday season, but you’ll be doing some good for the environment, too!
Spread some holiday cheer with Hallmark
Nothing gives you those warm fuzzies during the holiday season quite like giving to those you love, so spread a little holiday cheer with Hallmark Good Mail cards. Hallmark Good Mail is a feel-good card collection that has everything from fun messages for your friends to pretty florals and chic, eye-catching designs. There are lots of ways to communicate with your family and friends, but there’s something so magical about sending a thoughtful card to show how much you care. See what a card can do this holiday season and shop for Hallmark cards on their website!
Holiday party coverage from Oi (Organic Initiative)
Getting your period during the holidays can leave you feeling a little bah humbug, but thanks to Oi (Organic Initiative), you’ll be back in the holiday spirit. Oi’s tampons and pads (which you can find at Walmart, CVS, Amazon, and major grocery stores!) are not only made with 100 percent certified, pure organic cotton, the whole product is certified organic—from the core to the cover. Plus, they’re free from all the things you don’t want in your feminine products, like chemicals, bleaching, and dyes. All of their packagings are recyclable (and the ink is made from vegetable dye), so you’ll do some good for your body and the environment this holiday season. Oi’s pads and tampons are also naturally absorbent and non-irritant to provide comfort and protection that you can trust during all of your holiday festivities. Each woman can save 11,000 tampons and pads in their lifetime, taking this plastic out of the planet by switching to certified organic tampons, pads and liners – say no more.
Merry and bright skin courtesy of Alba Botanica
‘Tis the season for lots of holiday photos. But when an irritating pimple arises, it’ll have you going from holiday cheer to instant fear. Stick on one of Alba Botanica’s Acnedote Pimple Patches and let it work its holiday magic. Each remarkable patch draws fluids and oils out and away from the skin to help reduce inflammation while the tight seal keeps your skin moist to encourage faster healing and reduce risk of scarring, leaving your skin merry and bright.
Make sure to add Alba Botanica’s Hydration Sensation Micellar Cleanser to your skincare, too, and those holiday lights won’t be the only one glowing this season. Formulated with blue lotus flower water, three kinds of hyaluronic acid, and micellar technology, this cleanser leaves your skin refreshingly clean every time you wash without overdrying it. This lightweight gel cleanser (which transforms into a dreamy, foamy lather) is also gentle enough for sensitive skin.
A healthy holiday season with AZO®
Between attending holiday parties and shopping for presents, the holidays can be quite a balancing act. The stress of managing your social calendar mixed in with your period, hygiene and sex (and even certain medications) can disrupt your feminine environment and throw off pH. AZO Complete Feminine Balance™ Daily Probiotic for Women, a daily oral capsule proven to maintain feminine health, helps restore the natural balance of good bacteria and yeast in your body. It works differently than probiotics designed for gut health because it contains Intelliflora™, the only clinically proven probiotic blend with the four species of beneficial bacteria most commonly found in healthy women. With AZO®, you’ll be back to living your best life in no time.*
