Top 5 Gift Sets
1) Beginner's Safety Razor Gift Set
The Rookie Razor cuts clean and close to the skin. And it’s a great induction into better, less wasteful way of shaving. The double-edged blade won’t tug or pull on hair, so you get smooth shave minus the ingrowns and irritation. The buffer between the blade’s edge and your skin gives extra safety, too. The gift set comes with everything you could possibly need to groom, including extra blades, shaving creams, and alum matches (in case you get a nick).
2) Zero Waste Sustainable Starter Kit
This zero-waste sustainable starter kit makes plastic-free living a cinch at home or on the go. An eight-piece bamboo cutlery set, kitchen dish brush, pot scrubber, adult bamboo toothbrush, and expandable French market bag are included. All are reusable and made with eco-friendly materials.
3) Curry Spice Gift Set
Spice up curry dishes with the signature curry spice blends from Curio Spice Co. They are made with spices directly sourced from growers and farms to ensure freshness and purity, and are packed with interesting flavors (cinnamon, ginger, and white pepper, anyone?) carefully selected to make these dishes shine. The set includes three spice blends and recipes for inspiration.
4) The Whole Shebang - Set of 6
Reinvented classic treats with handpicked sea salts and exotic spices by wife-husband team in Brooklyn. The Whole Shebang—3 boxes of cookies and 3 boxes of brownies—is the perfect hostess gift no matter where you're going. . . or even when you're not going anywhere.
