Giving a sustainable gift is easier said than done. Most 'sustainable' gift lists are full of products nobody really needs. Here are 7 ideas I would want to receive myself: sensory, usable and with a story that holds up.
1. Handmade soap gift set
The natural soap gift set from Nature Bar contains five half soap bars to discover which suits your skin best. Handmade in Amsterdam from organic oils and circular ingredients. Plastic-free packaging. €24.75.
2. Soap making workshop
An experience instead of a product. At the soap making workshop in De Hallen you learn the cold process in 2.5 hours and take your own handmade soap bar home. Every Saturday, €74.95. Also available as an e-voucher.
3. Shampoo bar for her hair type
Choose the right shampoo bar by hair type. Dry hair: Nourish & Restore with seaweed extract and avocado oil. Oily hair: Balance & Deep Cleanse with horsetail and mint. Normal hair: Strength & Volume with spent grain. pH 5.5, no transition period. From €12.95.
4. Body butter travel size
The body butter from Nature Bar in a handy travel size. Rich nourishment for dry skin from shea butter, coconut oil and jojoba oil. Vegan and plastic-free.
5. Bamboo soap dish
A bamboo soap dish is the perfect accompanying gift with a soap bar: it lets the soap dry and lasts for years. Small, sustainable and practical.
6. Botanical Boost Serum
The Botanical Boost Serum from Nature Bar: a blend of six rich botanical oils for face and skin. Squalane, rosehip oil and pomegranate seed oil. Light, fast-absorbing and without synthetic substances.
7. Private soap making workshop for a group
For a group of friends: the private soap making workshop is available from 5 people on your own date. Hen party, birthday or a special day.
