Did you know that by buying from local and eco-friendly businesses you can create a tremendous change in our community? In this blog I want to share gift ideas that will make your loved ones happy, support our environment and help entrepreneurs who are passionate about making this world truly a better place.
It’s All Good Organics Body Products
This local boutique company hand-crafts fabulous skincare products that are made with wholesome, real ingredients and of course, with love. Here are three great products that make excellent gifts and stocking stuffers. Face Toner – Unlike conventional toners, this one is actually good for your skin as it has no harsh chemicals. It is made with hand crafted organic rose water that softens and rejuvenates your skin while organic witch hazel helps soothe and heal it.
Face Serum – This little bottle of sunshine is made with calendula oil that can be used daily as face moisturizer. And did you know that calendula is known to brighten your skin and help stimulate the production of collagen? Eye Cream – I love this cream because it is rich in vitamins A, D and E and has fabulous skin-loving ingredients. For example, aloe helps hydrate your skin, castor oil helps with the natural production of collagen, shea butter reduces inflammation and carrot seed oil tightens, nourishes and rejuvenates.
Military Hippie Fitness Clothing
This local, Boca-based company makes quality fitness clothing that will last through tough workouts and stay strong during years of wear, giving you better value out of your purchase.
All of their tees, tanks, sweatpants and sweatshirts are made from natural organic cotton, which offers natural benefits like breathability, antibacterial effects, UV protection and biodegradability. Their yoga wear is manufactured with cutting edge sustainable processes that reduce waste and leave less harmful chemicals on your skin and in the environment. They even use recycled polyester for their yoga pants.
And if you think this new line of fitness clothing is boring or earth-crunchy, think again. Their pieces are absolutely gorgeous and fun to wear. And with all honestly, I now wear their yoga pants to lounge around, not just to workout. After all, it feels good to feel comfy and look fabulous!

Hydro Flask Beverage Containers
Did you know that plastic water bottles and cups create an enormous damage to our eco system? Instead of buying water, juices or smoothies when you are out, I suggest making your own and carrying them in a fabulous Hydro Flask. This brand has a terrific array of eco-friendly containers that will keep your beverages at their temperature for 24 hours! I tested this by making my smoothie and keeping it in the flask for a day. It stayed perfectly cold.
My favorite is the wide-mouth bottle that is perfect for all drinks, including blended soups. Because this company has so many gorgeous colors and styles, it is easy to pick the perfect one for your special someone.
We Are All Heroes and Rock Stars Electric Picks Jewelry
Who doesn’t want to be a hero and a rock star in their life? If you have someone on your list who is looking to kick butt in the coming year, then check out this inspirational Bracelet made with Black Onyx by Boca’s Electric Picks.
Not only is black onyx great for grounding elevated energy and reducing the intensity of emotions, the “We Are All Heroes and Rock Stars” Guitar Pick on the bracelet will remind you of your amazing capabilities in this world.
Omega 8006 Juicer
If you are looking for a gift that will keep on giving the joy of vibrant health for years to come, then check out Omega 8006 Nutritional Center. What I like about this particular model is that it can juice greens, wheatgrass and fruits without much waste. Pulp comes out pretty dry, meaning that all the liquid was squeezed out. And yet Omega 8006 is also so much more than just a juicer. You can also make sorbets, nut butters or even your own pasta. Talking about versatile! This company is also local and they provide a 10-year warrantee.
