Spacemasks
There are eye masks and then there are Spacemasks. Incredibly relaxing, these masks contain a thin layer of iron filings that heat up when they meet oxygen molecules in the air. Legions of fans swear by their power to help with sleeping, headaches and tired eyes. Spacemasks Box, £15.00 for a box of five, with current Christmas offer: buy five boxes and get one free.

LOOKING GOOD

Love, Sweat and Tees
A gift that upgrades those lockdown sweats, with designs glamourous enough to wear on a night out without compromising on comfort? Win win! No mass-produced, fast fashion here: The feel-good designs are made with 100% organic ring-spun cotton printed in the UK with environmentally friendly paints. We particularly love the ‘Où Est La Discothèque’ and Christmassy ‘Étoile’ sweatshirts, £49, and the White Wing Dove rolled sleeve tee, £32.

One Hundred Stars
Small family run business One Hundred Stars makes the most beautiful kimonos, shrugs, silk scarves and gowns which are hand screen printed and ethically produced. They boast a glorious array of prints, some designed in collaboration with The Royal Botanic Gardens Kew. The Headbands, £15, make a wonderful present. In a bid to reduce waste, they are made from the off-cuts of the kimonos and gowns, meaning each one is unique.

UNIQUE IDEAS

Junie Poonie Designs
June – AKA Junie Poonie - is a ‘Creator of Utter Loveliness’ who works from a garden shed in the middle of England. We love her Brave Poonie Pants, £15, which are just the thing to give to someone in need of a little boost of confidence - and a laugh! Not necessarily intended to be worn (they come in one size), you can carry them in your bag as a talisman to bring you superhero vibes whenever needed. 

 

christmas gifts that support small local brands

The Karry London
Such a simple yet genius idea, The Karry, £49.99, contains all you need to safely transport your skincare when you travel, whether you’re jet-setting or going to the gym. The premium quality, sleek and stylish cosmetic case contains a range of airport security-compliant mini glass dropper bottles and jars in 5ml and 10ml sizes for you to decant your favourite skincare into. It would make a beautiful gift for frequent travellers or those dreaming of a sun-soaked holiday (everyone).
