Top 5 Gift Sets
1) Brutus Sandalwood's Beard Oil, Balm & Wash Kit

This complete beard care kit for the ultimate Brutus fan helps you say goodbye to dried out, flaky beards and hello to a healthy shine. The wash won’t strip away natural oil, keeping hair conditioned and nourished. Then the balm and oil help shape and tame your look without a greasy finish. The products all have a sandalwood scent and come in a keepsake tin.
2) 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).
3) New England Spice Gift Set

Down east flavors from a spice gift set inspired by (and sourced from) New England. The set includes two of Curio Spice Co.’s signature spice blends along with Maine sea salt. It’s all directly sourced from farms and growers to ensure freshness and purity, and comes with recipe cards to help you get cooking.
4) Sustainable Kitchen Cleaning Set

This sustainable kitchen cleaning set makes it easy to sidestep plastic in your home. The pot brush, dish brush, and bottle brush are all made with sustainably-grown bamboo handles and durable sisal bristles for strong scrubbing without any glue or adhesives. And an all-natural kitchen sponge is fully compostable when it’s done with dish duty.
5) 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.
