Gift Guide by Zodiac Element

Gift Guide by Zodiac Element

Our team here at Way of Being is made up of fire, water, air, and earth signs, so we figured it would be fun to each tackle a few items from Way of Being we think fit our element and we'd be happy to receive as gifts.

Fire (Sagittarius, Leo, Aries) - Curated by Alex, our resident Aries 

Traits:

  • Energetic
  • Driven, action-oriented, fast-paced, take initiative
  • Impulsive
  • Competitive
  • Loyal
  • Can burn out quickly, need inspiration to maintain energy
  • Passionate, dynamic, charismatic, temperamental 

 

-A bold lip color like Mortar & Pestle Lip Paint or Raspberry Lip-to-Lid Balmie or eye color like Lapis Eye Coal because they’ve got the confidence to pull it off and won’t mind standing out from the crowd

-MamaP Bamboo Toothbrushes - So their everyday actions can align with their passions

-Bamboo Bandages – For when their impulses and competitive spirits get them into scrapes

-Dry Massage Brush – Just abrasive enough to be effective at exfoliating while also improving circulation and promoting detoxification. Just like fire signs - can be a little rough around the edges, but they have a way of getting the ball rolling and stagnant energy moving!

-Wooden Brush or Wild Mane Hair Oil – For taming their hot heads and primping one of their favorite features

-Highlighter – To help them shine as bright as they were born to!

-Heat Wave Body Oil – Not that they need to be warmed up even more than they already are, but this body oil helps soothe the sore muscles of these active fire signs and give them an outer glow that matches their lit-from-within energy

-Oh Whale Aqua Mask – A cooling detox mask for when you’re feeling heated

-Fire Cider – A little on the nose but this fire sign enjoys a daily dose of wellness from this tonic!

-Warming and Cooling Pad – After a busy day of taking charge, this pad delivers comfort that can be heated or frozen to help with sore muscles or cramps and helps relieve stress or discomfort

  

Water (Pisces, Scorpio, Cancer) - Curated by Sam, our resident Pisces

Traits:

  • Emotional
  • Empathetic
  • Creative
  • Sentimental
  • Nurturing
  • Intuitive

-Dream Weaver Mist – for leaning into the lucid, the vivid, and the oracular in the dream space…something water signs do intuitively

-Eucalyptus Shower Steamers – for a refreshing shower to clear away the tears from having big feelings

-Darning Mushroom – so they can mend all their favorite clothes that they've worn to death

-Essential Mascara – to keep those eyes bright and curious, even through sweat and tears

-Shower Scrubbie Knit Kit – for them to flex their creative muscles!

-Happy Pot Brush – because they'll love how cute the face is and it will encourage them to stay on top of their cleaning

-Plastic-free Hair Ties – to keep their hair out of the way as they get down to business on their latest creative project

-Wool Dryer Balls – they'll love how these keep their clothes feeling soft and fresh, and that they're a sustainable alternative to dryer sheets!

Traits:

  • Intelligent
  • Communicative
  • Analytical
  • Witty or humorous
  • Sociable
  • Free-spirited

-Lip Salve - to keep those chatty air signs' lips from getting chapped while they're small-talking, intellectualizing, or gossiping the day away

-Blue Me Away - a caffeine-free kick of energy with cognitive boosting ingredients to provide clarity and focus that'll help them effectively communicate all the things flying around in their heads

-Rooted Oil - a grounding, nourishing, aromatic lightweight scented oil for hair and skin that smells like burning palo santo

-Olive Wood Cooking Utensils and Utensil Holder – for their social side, to show off while hosting

-Upcycled Cotton Cloth Napkins – use these for hosting too, or daily use!

-Sage & Rose Face Mist - to refresh their skin and clear the air of bad vibes when they're feeling weighed down

Traits:

  • Practical
  • Hard-working
  • Grounded
  • Stable
  • Disciplined
  • Receptive
  • Appreciation for fine things & luxury

-Bamboo Pot Scrapers - a tribute to their practical side. The pot scrapers offer a no-brainer easy way to clean pots & pans.

-Veggie Huggers - helps reduce food waste by keeping cut veggies as fresh as can be. They can also be used on open cans. Truly a product that your most practical and disciplined friend will appreciate.

-Duster - appeal to both their hard-working and luxury-loving sides all at once with a gorgeous duster.

-Ceramic French Press - help them start off that well-disciplined day with a pot of coffee made in the most attractive french press ever. 

-Shampoo & Conditioner Stones -  these luxurious stones tap in to each of the Earth Sign's traits and desires. They're extremely effective in delivering your best ever hair and scalp (hello, practical) and also encourage a focus on total-head wellness, mindfulness included (finer things, indeed). Bonus: they have spa-like earthy scents. 

-Essential Tinted SPF 30 - for your diligent friend who smartly wears sunscreen every day, but won't settle for anything but the best. This is truly the best, the whole Way of Being team swears by it. 

-Nopalera Cactus Soaps - what could be more practical than a bar of soap? These gorgeous cactus soaps will tap in to their penchant for luxury, while still being sensible enough that your friend is guaranteed to use them.

-Toothpaste Bits - for your friend who is simultaneously stubborn and receptive. Encourage them to try something new, but that they are sure to love. 

-Earth Oil - a nourishing, multipurpose oil they can use everywhere every day that packs a powerful punch
