Sustainable gifts for her: jewellery, natural beauty & vegan bags

Choosing gifts for her

Start with what she wears and uses most, whether that is jewellery, a favourite bag, her skincare routine or a candle in the evening. Notice whether she prefers gold or silver, bold or delicate, and choose one well-made piece over several small ones. Harfi, Rize, Habulous and Lily Flo Jewellery make many of the presents here, alongside Votch for bags and watches. Each brand was checked for how its products are made and how openly it explains its materials.

Jewellery she will wear every day

Harfi makes pendants and studs set with each month's birthstone, star sign constellation earrings and pearl necklaces in gold vermeil and sterling silver. Rize makes silver jewellery inspired by South Asian design, Habulous makes ceramic, glass and gold lustre pendants and earrings, and Ballinger makes stacking rings and hoops. For a milestone, Lily Flo Jewellery makes diamond necklaces and studs in solid gold. Earrings and necklaces are easier to buy than rings, which need a size, and a small stud goes with almost everything.

Sustainable gifts for her: bags and accessories

Votch makes bio-based bamboo leather tote bags, hobo bags and crossbody bags, an AppleSkin essentials pouch and petite vegan watches. Frida Rome makes a crossbody bag, So Just Shop sells yak wool scarves, and Komodo makes fleece-lined mittens. These eco friendly gifts for her are made to be used for years, and a good bag goes with her to work, on weekends and on holiday. AMOKA DALO makes organic cotton pyjama sets for a slow Christmas morning.

Beauty and candles

Wild Rising Skincare makes natural skincare sets, Silvan Skincare makes skincare bundles, and BristolMade makes a rose geranium skincare set. Glisten Cosmetics makes colourful eyeliner and palettes, and B.U.Beauty makes a vegan makeup brush set. Bouclé makes candle trio gift sets, and Douvalls makes an argan glow candle, which suit a quiet evening in after a busy December. Many of these are vegan, but not all, so check each listing.
