Are you thinking about starting your Christmas shopping in early November? You might hear some laugh but we believe it’s never too soon to get organised, especially if you’re looking for the perfect Christmas gifts for vegans.
With vegans steering clear of traditional items like cheese boards, chocolate, meat, and leather bags, it can be quite a challenge to find the right presents. Besides the obvious items, vegans also avoid products containing glycerin, musk, and lanolin, which are often found in beauty and perfume products.
Without further ado, here’s our guide to the perfect gifts for vegans:
Callen Olive ~ treat your feet!
A perfect present would be a gift from this new luxury treat range of beauty products for legs and feet. Holding the Vegan Trademark, Callen Olive products smell incredible and are sourced from the highest grade of naturally-derived ingredients.
Founder Maggie Trevillion is an award-winning podiatrist with a passion for foot care and prevention, and designed this range to keep the lower limbs in tip-top condition.
Manufactured in England and packaged in recyclable glass bottles, there are plenty of products to choose from including Bare to Impress Cuticle Oil, Foot Soul & Heel Saviour Balm and Deep Nourishing Restorative Leg & Foot Serum, your vegan friend is sure to be toe-tally loving any of these in their stocking this year.
