3. FATSKN Face- Frankincense
If skin concerns are top of mind for the woman in your life, this one’s for her. This ultra-nourishing cream uses grass-fed tallow and sustainably sourced frankincense resin to moisturize, promote cell regeneration, calm inflammation, reduce redness, soften lines, and clear acne-causing bacteria. Brace yourself for some aggressive hugs if you gift her this– you’ve been warned. Buy for $49 ($37 US).
4. Non-toxic cookware set
Why not give her the gift of peace of mind with a truly nontoxic cookware set? Cooking up a storm is way more fun when you don’t have to worry about harmful chemicals or trace metals getting in the mix. Buy for $60.
5. Fat: An Appreciation of a Misunderstood Ingredient
6. Bioenergetic anti-aging skincare
Pre-Sun is the perfect gift for any woman in your life who wants better skin and a healthier metabolism. This luxurious blend of saturated fats, fat-soluble vitamin C, and methylene blue tackles both concerns by actively repairing and preventing oxidative damage on the skin while boosting overall cellular energy. She’ll notice her skin is fuller, more hydrated, and more elastic, along with better energy levels and mental clarity. Pairs beautifully with a red light therapy device for the ultimate metabolic revival. Buy for $89 ($67 US)
7. Body brush
What better way to start the new year than with perfectly exfoliated skin? Dry brushing is also amazing for circulation and supports lymphatic drainage. Her skin will thank you. Pairs nicely with our Fatskn Whipped Body Butter for glowy, moisturized skin all winter long. Buy for $14.
8. FATSKN Tallow Lip Balm
Help her beat chapped lips this season with a protective, tallow-based lip balm. Grass-fed tallow, raw honey, unrefined cocoa butter, and a touch of Alberta beeswax work together to repair and lock in moisture. She’ll be obsessed. Buy for $15.

If this isn’t already on her bookshelf, hook her up! This pro-metabolic resource flips everything we thought we knew about health on its head– and it just makes sense. It will quickly become her go-to guide for all things nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle. Buy for $27.
10. Barefoot Boots
Barefoot shoes are gaining traction in the wellness space because they’re just so good for you. They support foot strength, improve balance, and reduce the risk of injury. If she’s into Ugg boots (but not the clunky sole), surprise her with these as a comfy and on-trend replacement. Buy for $175.
11. Red Reading Light
The best reading light out there. A thoughtful gift for any bookworm on your list, but especially for night readers.

A great gift for ladies who find themselves staring at screens all day– which, unfortunately, is most of us in our modern world. To help cancel out some of the negative effects, these stylish blue light blockers will keep her protected while she’s being productive. Plus, the yellow lenses work best for all-day protection without the added darkness of red lenses. Buy for $130.
13. Natural fiber clothing

14. Dehydrated sourdough starter
Has she always wanted to bake her own sourdough? Bring her bread-making dreams to life by launching her sourdough journey with a dehydrated starter.

She’ll be slicing and serving her very own sourdough by the end of the week. Buy for $15.
15. Kyrgies
Cold winter weather means an even colder kitchen floor. These handmade wool house shoes will keep her nice and toasty all season long. Not only is wool a good-for-her natural fiber, but it's also moisture-wicking and odor-resistant. A win-win-win. These stylish slides come with a classic slipper sole or a more durable rubber sole that can be worn outdoors. Buy for $89.

We all know how many dressings and sauces on the shelves are loaded with inflammatory industrial seed oils. Toss 'em out and gift him a set of ones full of flavor and none of the bad stuff.
