This year, we’d like to shift our focus to the “meaning” behind gifts. Taking things like mental health, self-care, social and environmental responsibility into consideration while choosing a gift is more valuable than you could ever imagine. In the midst of our busy lives, we’re learning to pay more attention to loving ourselves, our planet and each other—and if it doesn’t spark joy, to let it go. This season, as we choose the gifts for the ones who mean something to us, make sure it means something to them.
When things get down to the wire and you still need to find that gift that’s useful, original and of course, meaningful, come take a little trip into any of our five Scott J. locations. There’s a little something for everyone in beautifully wrapped-and-ready-to-go Aveda gift sets featuring the brand’s most iconic products. Here’s a few reasons why we feel an Aveda gift holds deeper meaning:
PERFECT FOR ANYONE
Looking for something for a teacher, boss or secret Santa? Sometimes the gift just needs to be universal and pleasant—but another tin of popcorn is too expected. Stand out with a gift that will make them feel (and smell) amazing. These gifts carry a diverse range of hair care featuring iconic Aveda aromas like Cherry Almond and Rosemary Mint, as well as body care like Hand & Foot Relief. Great for men, women, younger or older; anyone will love a gift that promotes self-care. Bonus points if they immediately open the bottle to take in the aroma.
EARTH-FRIENDLY
The more conscious we can become of our environment, the better chance we have at saving our planet. Aveda is cruelty-free, non-toxic, vegan, naturally derived and the first beauty company to use 100% post-consumer recycled PET. The signature Aveda aromas that are so widely loved are made from pure plant and flower essences. The products contain no silicone, parabens, synthetic fragrance, formaldehyde, animal ingredients or other harmful components. And no animals are ever harmed in the making of Aveda products. The one receiving this gift will love knowing the thought and consideration for our planet and everyone who lives on it.
GREAT FOR TREATING YOURSELF
Let’s face it, holiday shopping always leads to a little self-indulgence. And that’s completely ok. You deserve to treat yourself and feel special too. Plus, when you purchase a gift set, you get to stock up at a great value—buying your favorite Aveda products this way saves 20% off regular pricing. So don’t feel guilty. You’ve made it through another year and now you should be able to show yourself the same appreciation you show others.
EASY ON THE BUDGET
Speaking of great value: There’s an Aveda gift set for almost any budget. Whether it’s for someone you barely know or someone you really want to impress, you can find a gift set at almost any price point.
