2021 Health & Beauty Gift Guide - Our Top Gifts for the Self-Care Obsessed

2021 Health & Beauty Gift Guide - Our Top Gifts for the Self-Care Obsessed

What a year! 2021 has flown by and if you’re anything like us at IdentifyLA, you’re scrambling to obtain the perfect gift for your loved ones. From many extreme highs to the various lows, self-care has been the constant necessity for many individuals. Whether you’re in need of new lounge wear or simply some ‘ME’ time, we are sure that the below gifts will help create the self-care sanctuary you, and your loved ones, deserve! Here is our 2021 gift guide for the individual that has it all and is in need of some R&R!

TheraBox:

Recognizing that self-care is necessary and looks different to everyone, TheraBox was founded by a therapist to make it easy to discover and maintain self-care rituals that inspire joy and fulfillment each month. Each box includes a happiness activity meant to be practiced throughout the month (or longer!) in addition to 7-8 full sized wellness items for the mind, body and soul. Packed with over $120 in value, products are curated by therapists and include aromatherapy, natural and organic bath, body, and skincare products, and other lifestyle goodies. Happiness Plans range from a single month to a full year.

H.I.M.-istry:

H.I.M.-istry, an acronym for “Healthy Image Men,” was founded by Darnell Henderson on the notion that for many men, daily shaving and skincare regimens are one and the same. With that in mind, he set out to develop a line of healthy and powerful men’s grooming products that would go beyond simply prepping skin for shaving, to also address common skin concerns like acne, dryness, premature aging, ingrown hairs, razor irritation and more – all in one simple, easy-to-follow daily regimen. Gift the gift of great skincare!

Jilaine Swim:

Jilaine Swim recently launched HOT WINTER WHITE in two of their most popular styles for Holiday, the LOLLY string bikini and the POP. The LOLLY retails for $85 each piece and the POP retails for $82 each piece. Consciously created in Southern California, each Jilaine Swim piece is made entirely from ocean waste and/or 100% recycled water bottles. The fabric looks amazing and better yet, FEELS amazing! When you purchase Jilaine Swim, you look good, feel good, and you are doing good!
