From seeking the highest quality hair smoothers to finding which lipstick hydrates your pout the best, it’s always nice to have the opportunity to experiment with several new products with less commitment. And when it comes to Christmas, stocking stuffers are an excellent way of distributing these to your loved ones, too, so they can take part in the well-loved tradition of entirely too much variety.

We love moms who get down with yoga and tote their kids along to their own soccer games, but let’s face it: Not everyone’s mom is a health nut. Still, many of us would rather give her something healthy to show we care–instead of showering her with candies and treats that will ultimately make her less healthy. More
With Black Friday rapidly approaching, it’s never too early to start adding items to your wish-list.  No one wants to see a repeat of last year’s double Snuggie® incident–so be kind and let your friends and family know what you’d like. An adorable new gym bag, perhaps? More

Why not give gifts with staying power? Experience-oriented gifts offer friends and loved ones an unforgettable experience and the opportunity to learn skills that they’ll have for a lifetime (and use more often than that too-big sweater they donated to Goodwill over the summer). Whether it’s learning a new skill or simply enjoying a relaxing day at the spa, giving experiences rather than trinkets is likely to make a better impression on your loved ones (and they’re a lot more eco-friendly, too).
