2. Being by Sanctuary Lotion 

Being is all about pure, promoting healthy, smooth skin through delicious scents. There’s a genie in our bottles that makes you feel 10 feet tall and smell good enough to lick. The Salted Caramel & Macadamia and Cloudberry & Lychee Blossom Hand Creams are our personal favorites. 

3. Krazy Glue 

From fine china and collectibles, to holiday wreaths and model trains, Krazy Glue is the glue that can bond anything. The Krazy Glue singles have enough in each tube for one fast fix, bonds to many types of materials, and is ideal for any type of holiday project. 

4. #ActuallySheCan Tanks

#ActuallySheCan is an inspiring female empowerment campaign by Allergan, a leader in women’s healthcare. Le Motto offers a way to express yourself positively and fashionably through handwritten graphics that express good words and kind thoughts. The #ActuallySheCan Tanks were created in partnership with Le Motto with sayings of: Less Drama More Karma in dark grey, Less Regret More Sweat in heather grey, and Less Hesitation, More Meditation in white. These tanks are perfect for any girls who enjoy working out, women’s empowerment, or both! 

5. Alba Botanica® Fast Fix for Puffy Eyes
