We asked the Glimja team which organic and natural Christmas gifts they would like to give. Here they come!
1. Organic hair kit
Sara M is putting Malin i Ratan's lovely starter kit under the tree this year. The strength is perfect for beginners in "no poo" or for those who want to try shampoo soap.
The soaps also work great as body soaps. The kit contains 3 small soaps, 1 rasul clay detox, and 1 sour rinse hibiscus.
All Malin i Ratan's solid soaps are handmade and organic. They contain only the best natural and organic ingredients.
2. Reusable cleansing pads
Otilia wants to recommend Bambaw's reusable cleansing pads. A Christmas gift that suits the environmentally conscious.
These pads are washable and can be reused again and again. The pads are made of cotton, bamboo, and polyester and are designed to suit all skin types.
3. Vitamin C serum
Ljung of Lapland's Vitamin C Antioxidant Serum is the perfect beauty Christmas gift, says Vera. It refreshes and brightens the skin while smelling so good.
The serum contains carrot extract, vitamin C, and heather extract, which have an anti-aging effect. Vitamin C prevents pigmentation spots.
4. Ceremonial matcha tea
Otilia loves Matcha tea and wants to give away the beautiful package with Ceremonial Grade Matcha tea and matcha whisk.
Matcha is very rich in antioxidants and also contains the special amino acid L-theanine, which is only found in green tea. A lovely gift that most will appreciate.
A matcha whisk, or Chasen as it is actually called, is a beautiful element for a Japanese tea ceremony. This whisk is made of bamboo with 100 bamboo tines to perfectly mix the tea with foam on top.
5. Natural candy dates
Sara recommends Dave & Jon's amazingly tasty dates with candy flavors! They suit both kids and adults and contribute to a slightly healthier Christmas candy. It's a very nice "host gift" for the mulled wine party or Christmas cozy time.
Which will be your favorite? Licorice, Peach, Tropical flavor, or maybe Cola bottles?
6. Green super powder
Better You's green powder Green Boost is a great Christmas gift for a tired mom, says Hanna, or for anyone who needs a little extra nutrition during winter. Drink the powder directly in water or make a delicious smoothie.
Green Boost gives you spirulina, spinach, Q10, wheatgrass, acai, barley grass, alfalfa, green tea, chlorella, and sour cherry – a really great boost of greens and nutrients.
7. Play bag
Hanna recommends PlanToys’ “learning bags,” which are inspiring and fun play bags that help children develop imagination, creativity, fine motor skills, and logical thinking. Perfect even for the “wild” child, says Hanna. And we adults take turns being patients or customers.
PlanToys makes very nice, eco-friendly, and educational toys. They use sustainable materials and dye with organic, water-based colors. They are made of rubberwood, painted with low-toxicity paints, and the bags are made of cotton canvas.
8. Wool blanket
Otilia wants to give one of Klippan’s wool blankets in organic lambswool – it’s guaranteed to be a Christmas gift everyone will love. Because who doesn’t want to snuggle under a warm blanket in winter in front of a fire or a good movie?
The wool blankets are made without chlorine and with heavy metal-free dyes. The blanket is just as beautiful on the front as on the back and becomes a cozy, warming treasure in the home for many years to come.
9. Aroma bottle
Sara loves her aroma bottle because she can create her own scent combinations for her home with selected essential oils. The current favorite is cinnamon scent! Of course, the essential oils we offer are genuine and organic, no synthetic fragrances.
You fill the bottle with a little vegetable base oil and 5-10 drops of essential oils. Then you put in a few scent sticks and the fragrance spreads throughout the home.
10. Organic argan oil
Sara wants to share the amazing Argan oil.
Sara now only uses pure argan oil on her face and has never had such beautiful skin. Her favorite is Loelle’s argan oil with vanilla.
Argan oil suits all skin types, including sensitive and oily skin. At the same time, the oil is probably best known as a really good, effective hair oil that helps dry, damaged, and worn hair.
11. Organic conditioner
Nicole gives 100% Pure Honey & Virgin Coconut conditioner as a Christmas gift. Because it makes the hair so soft, smooth, and easy to comb! And it smells just right.
The balm has a nourishing formula with, among other things, aloe vera, rose water, avocado butter, and coconut oil that makes the hair healthy and shiny.
12. Organic foot cream
Moon thinks that Dr Sannas organic foot cream is a perfect Christmas gift. A sure winter present for tired and dry winter feet.
Dr Sannas foot cream softens and prevents cracked heels. The feet become smooth and lovely with completely natural ingredients.
13. Supercharged C60
Sara wants to share Global Healing's Supercharged C60, which is a unique product. It is an advanced form of micro-activated, multilayered, and organized C60.
What does it do then, you wonder? Well, it works as a very powerful antioxidant. It contributes to cleansing the body and supports healthy aging.
Its unique structure acts as a powerful "catcher" of free radicals, effectively absorbing these harmful molecules and helping to eliminate them from the body.
14. Organic elderberry syrup
Moon wants to give Gaia Herbs Elderberry Syrup as a Christmas gift because it is a simple product for the whole family to use to give a boost and prevent colds. And it tastes so good!
Gaia Herbs Elderberry Syrup is a liquid syrup made from elderberries and acerola fruit. Two berries rich in vitamin C. Each teaspoon corresponds to 14.5 grams of fresh elderberries.
15. Organic propolis
Nicole thinks Ballot Flurin black propolis is a perfect Christmas gift. It is organic black propolis extract in spray form that is easy to take to support the immune system.
Propolis is a wonder of nature consisting of vitamins, minerals, and almost all amino acids. It also contains a range of interesting bioflavonoids, some of our most important antioxidants.
16. Natural watercolors
For Sara T, it is important to minimize toxins in the home. She wants to brighten Christmas Eve with this beautiful watercolor kit with 12 different colors. Suitable for the crafty child or the crafty adult.
With pencils, crayons, or paint from the German ökoNORM, we avoid worries about toxins, as their products are made from natural raw materials. The colors are made from highly concentrated plant extracts and food-grade dyes.
17. Insulated thermal mug
This insulated Camp Mug from Klean Kanteen is a favorite when going out with the dog and wanting to bring your morning coffee, says Rahima. Perfect as a gift for anyone who enjoys hiking in the forest or wants their drink in the car. Suitable for both hot and cold drinks.
Camp Mug has a "Climate Lock" vacuum insulation that keeps cold drinks chilled for about 9.5 hours and hot drinks warm for about 3.5 hours.
18. Yoga mat in lambswool
Nicole gives away a yoga mat in lambswool – for the calmer yoga moments. Nicole loves to cozy up on this mat with her dog when the floor at home is cold in winter. The mat is also perfect just for relaxation, meditation, or why not outdoors.
The rug is certified according to Ökotex and Woolmark. The top side is 100% wool. The underside has anti-slip stripes made from a mix of natural latex.
19. Eye cream
Adam would like to recommend 100% Pure's fantastic eye cream that reduces puffiness and dark circles.
A big favorite both with us and our customers.
With green tea and green coffee extract, vitamin C, vitamin E, rose water, rosehip oil, aloe vera, and herbs, this is an effective hit.
20. Organic body lotion
You can't live without a good lotion, so Rahima puts i+m Naturkosmetik's organic lotion Rich Body Cream Orange Vanilla under the tree. Because it leaves the skin so smooth and smells divine.
i+m naturkosmetik is a favorite company. They are organic pioneers who create products with fine eco raw materials. The principles FAIR ORGANIC VEGAN BRAVE are always the foundation for all their product and company decisions.
21. Natural bath salt
A bath salt from Vermont Soap is the obvious Christmas gift, says Daniella. If you have a bathtub at home, there is nothing more pleasant and relaxing than taking a bath with bath salt.
Vermont Soaps aromatherapy bath salt soothes aching and tired muscles as it contains both sea salt and Epsom salt. The lovely scent is just a bonus.
22. Natural birch sugar
Daniella would like to recommend Birch Sugar as it tastes just as good as the less healthy white sugar. A fun gift to put under the tree or bring to the Christmas party.
Birch sugar can be used like regular sugar, except for baked goods that require yeast. You can, for example, make chocolate, chocolate balls, ice cream, marmalade, jam, desserts, cookies, etc. Or put it on berries, in tea, and more.
23. Vitamin C
Adam gives away Vitamin C because it is such a fantastic support during the winter months for everyone. A must-have in the medicine cabinet at home.
We have Vitamin C for big and small, for all ages. In capsule, tablet, or powder form.
24. Organic olive oil
An organic olive oil of the highest quality is the obvious Christmas gift, says Ellinor.
The Vivere Verde olive oil comes from Sicily. Olives of the Tonda Iblea variety are handpicked and pressed within a few hours, then bottled in dark glass bottles.
The oil is certified D.O.P. Monte Iblei, which guarantees that it is 100% oil from olives from this area and that pressing has been done without heat or chemicals.
25. Wool blankets for children
Moon, who is a toddler parent, thinks Klippan’s children’s blankets are a lovely Christmas gift and they are so beautiful! A soft, cozy gift that everyone wants to take turns sitting on or wrapping themselves in.
Of course, they are made from organic lambswool. The lambswool is free from pesticides and no chemicals or antibiotics have been used in raising the lambs. The blankets are dyed with colors free from heavy metals, and they are not chlorine bleached either.
26. Water purifier
Adam wants to recommend Maunawai water filter because it’s an amazing product everyone should have in their kitchen that makes the water feel very clean and taste so good!
Maunawai® PI®PRIME K8 filter is a gravity water filter that filters according to five principles: filtration, information, optimization, harmonization, and biological availability. This technology was developed 60 years ago in Japan, intended to make tap water first-class drinking water. The Hawaiian word “Maunawai” means “mountain water.”
27. Natural beeswax wraps
Daniella wants to give Bee´s Wraps beeswax wraps as a Christmas gift because they are indispensable once you’ve discovered that plastic isn’t needed in the kitchen.
Beeswax wraps work perfectly for everything from cheese to vegetables and bread, and the size is adapted to the product you want to use it for.
You simply shape the cloth so that it covers, for example, a bowl going into the fridge. Then you clean them with cold water and a mild dish soap, and they can be used for up to a year.
28. Face Tan Water
Ellinor thinks Eco by Sonya’s Face Tan Water is a nice Christmas gift because it really brightens up the skin and gives that extra fresh feeling during winter.
Besides being organic, non-greasy, easy to use, giving a healthy glow, and reducing the need for foundation are just extra bonuses.
29. Organic facial oil
Hanna recommends Ljung organic Facial Oil Rosehip with rosehip seed oil, borage oil, and blackcurrant seed oil. It’s such a lovely oil and it really feels like it nourishes the skin.
The facial oil is rich in antioxidants and has a high content of essential fatty acids that improve the skin’s texture deeply.
30. Natural calendula balm
Hewri gives away Ekendahls organic calendula balm suitable for babies and children’s sensitive skin. It’s magical! and always removes dryness and redness from my daughters’ cheeks during winter.
It’s enough for me to apply it in the evening and in the morning the skin is soft and smooth again.
This mild calendula balm is not only suitable for babies and children but is equally useful for adults to apply on dry skin areas. It is 99% organic and has no added fragrance.
31. Crunchy spirulina
Rahima thinks Spirulina Crunchy is a fun Christmas gift that most people would be surprised to receive, and most have never tried it. Dried spirulina that has been made into small crunchy pieces.
Oh, so good! If you like the "green flavors," this is a must.
The spirulina is grown in Auroville and harvested as a mass that then undergoes a purification and filtration process. After that, the mass is pressed before being shaped into a paste that is ground into "spaghetti." These are dried in the sun.
Finally, the spirulina is portioned and packaged. Available in neutral flavor or with chili for a little kick in the mouth.
32. Organic blueberry powder
Vera gives Holistic's Blueberry Powder as a gift because it's super tasty on porridge! Blueberry powder is a great Christmas gift that suits both health novices and seasoned health enthusiasts.
Blueberries provide vitamins and minerals, but above all antioxidants.
33. Ultimate Cellular Health
Mikael absolutely loves Global Healing's Ultimate Cellular Health because it feels like it contributes to youthfulness.
Ultimate Cellular Health is an advanced supplement for cellular health. This is a really cool Longevity product, says Mikael!
34. Multivitamin for women
Better You Multivitamin Woman is a nice Christmas gift and perfect for people like me who like ALL IN ONE, says Hewri, while also being affordable.
Multivitamin Woman is designed for all women's needs, regardless of age, with a complete spectrum of vitamins and minerals.
35. Stainless steel straws
Vera would love to see BamBaw's stainless steel straws under the Christmas tree this year. These bent straws are made of stainless steel and replace disposable straws!
A single stainless steel straw can prevent many plastic straws from ending up in the ocean or landfill.
36. Food thermos
Klean Kanteen's Insulated TKCanister is a really good food thermos that Ellinor would love to give to anyone who wants a really good lunchbox, for work, forest trips, or traveling.
The food thermos has Climate Lock double-wall vacuum insulation that keeps contents warm for 11 hours and cold for 45 hours. It has a wide opening that makes it easy to eat from. The lid is leak-proof and has a large stainless steel handle.
37. Glass water bottle
Hewri thinks the water tastes better in this nice water bottle from Lifefactory, so she wants to give one to a friend for Christmas!
Lifefactory makes incredibly nice glass bottles with a practical silicone sleeve. The silicone sleeve both protects the glass and provides a good grip, making the bottle soft and easy to hold.
