Your Go-To Vegan Beauty Gift Guide

The season of giving, and gifting, can come with a little bit of stress. Searching for the perfect gift can be fun, but it can also be a challenge. So, to keep things merry and bright during this time of year, we're putting together gift guides to help take the stress out of the search process.

If you've got a vegan in your life, you may already know that—like cooking for one—shopping for one can be a bit of a project (this coming from a vegan!). With our latest beauty gifting guide we've rounded up some of the best products individualized for everyone on your list, your vegan friends included! *Bonus, everything on this list is under $50!


For the fresh-faced beauty

Light, rejuvenating, and soft-scented, HEARTSPRING Co. delivers the perfect face mist for the minimalist on your gift list. Their face mists, made in California, come in three scents: lavender, rose, and cucumber, and are created with all-natural ingredients. These mists are basically like giving your face a delicious, aromatherapy-infused spa cocktail. Seriously—they're that refreshing and hydrating. Added bonus: the packaging is recyclable.

For the one who loves a bold lip

Give the gift of instant-glam and vibrant color with one of Kat Von D's Studded Kiss Crème lipsticks. With 40 shades in the line-up, choosing a shade might be a bit difficult. Nothing says bold and chic quite like a red lip, (we love the Outlaw shade pictured above) but if the person on your list really likes to punch up a look with a truly wild color there are a few wild hues to choose from, too (like deep seafoam green, pitch black, and glimmer navy).

For the one who loves a good palette

Palettes are a make-up lover's best friend. What's better than a plethora of options all neatly packaged in one place? The Rainforest of the Sea palette from Tarte offers eight gorgeous neutral shades that promise to be crease-free. They're also created with nutrient-rich ingredients, like marine flower extracts, coconut and Vitamin E to give your lids a little TLC. With names like Tiki, Heat wave, and Malibu, they might just also cure a case of the winter blues.

For the one whose nails are always on point

Have a friend who always stays on top of their manicure game? Vapour Beauty's organic nail & cuticle oil will keep their fingers looking extra fresh—especially in these cold weather months. Nothing ruins a mani quite like a cuticle gone rogue, or nails that are constantly breaking—this oil helps to prevent both by strengthening nails and conditioning and hydrating cuticles.
