A bit of advice as you choose eco-friendly stocking stuffers this year – if you can already visualize it in someone’s junk drawer, don’t buy it.

Does it matter if the stocking is actually “stuffed” with items? It doesn’t to us! A partially filled stocking of things your loved ones will actually enjoy and use is much more fun to dump out than dozens of useless items.
Here are some eco-friendly stocking stuffers our team (or the kids on our team) agreed we’d be happy to get this holiday season.

A soft and simple hair accessory that curls or waves in even thick, heavy hair with no heat styling required. Learn more at CharlieCurls.com or find it on Amazon.
Professional Gardening Shears
When spring comes, your loved one will be ever so glad you thought of these. A good pair of sharp pruning shears is always handy, and when it comes to eco-friendly stocking stuffers, something useful always counts.
Zero-Waste Solid Shampoo Bar
We’ve tried a LOT of shampoo bars and Ethique remains our favorite. Many women say they need less conditioner once they switched to bar shampoo. Kinder to the planet, Ethique comes in plastic-free packaging, plus you’re not paying for mostly water like bottled shampoo.
Special Edition National Geographic Water Bottle
S’well stainless steel water bottles are beautiful and functional. And now they’ve got a water bottle that gives back. A percentage of proceeds go to the National Geographic Society to fund conservation and exploration.
Gentle Scalp Massager
Your loved one won’t care how weird it looks once they’ve tried it. At $6.99 for a two-pack, you might want to give them to everyone on your list. Trust us – they’ll thank you more than once!
Loose Leaf Tea Infusers
By now you’ve read all about plastic in tea bags, so you know how important it is to brew plastic-free. These stainless infusers are reusable and will really up their tea game.
Organic Tea Crystals
Another healthy option for plastic-free tea brewing is Pique Tea Crystals. Their unique teas are composed of cold brew crystallized 100% organic tea crystals. They deliver maximum antioxidant capacity – 6x the antioxidants of tea bags and 20x the antioxidants of bottled tea.
Aura Cleansing Crystal Body Scrub
A decadent scrub made from Indian Basil and Rosewood essential oils plus a beautiful Labradorite crystal inside. You might want to get one of these (or other crystal items from Energy Muse) for yourself.
