Here it is! By request, my HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE. I have discovered so many products and brands over the last few years, specifically this year -- you know, just sitting at home exploring ideas, finding way to reinvent myself, cope with this lifestyle change we have all had to endure... but I started this blog, so that's a big plus! As many of my followers know, I have spent years creating a non-toxic environment for myself after I received my stem cells. I have discovered so many wonderful non-toxic beauty products, self care products, comfy and cozy clothing items, baking tools and essentials. And newly, my food photography must haves!

So I took some time to compile a list of some gift ideas for everyone, and wanted to share them all here for you to explore! I am very very selective when it comes to my products. As much as I love to shop, I am a minimalist and only like to own what I LOVE. So let's get down to it!

Gifts for the baker or kitchen lover:

These are all items that I personally use and love in my baking. I get asked a lot what pans I use or what ice cream maker or molds I use. Well, it's all here!

Moon Juice Dusts are adaptogens you add into your tea, coffee, drinks or sprinkled in bowls. They have different dusts for different moods and purpose, and trust me, THEY WORK.

This is a magnesium berry powder that tastes delicious. It helps me sleep and is also great for regularity and muscle tension.
