Black Friday was technically invented so you could buy things for yourself without guilt. A little “self-care in the name of capitalism,” if you will. But here we are, staring down the barrel of December, the group chats, the Secret Santas, the what-do-I-get-my-mother-in-law anxiety, and suddenly treating yourself and finishing your Christmas shopping in one clean hit feels like peak efficiency.
So this year, play smarter. Stock up on the things that make you feel smugly well-prepared and grab the gifts that make you look like you actually planned ahead. From beauty to wellness, style to low-key flexes, we’ve rounded up 20 ideas that work for Christmas morning, office swaps, best friends, partners… and yes, the most important recipient of all: you.
For her, for him, for pets, for whoever’s left on your list. Sorted.
Nude By Nature
If your face is about to star in every Christmas photo, you may as well give it the glow-up it deserves. Nude by Nature is the clean beauty brand that proves radiant skin doesn’t need a chemistry degree to achieve it. Their new drops are equal parts skincare and colour: the Dewy Serum Blush that melts like a long weekend, the Skin Radiance Foundation that pulls you together on three hours sleep, and the Tinted Lip Oils that do for your lips what a week in Byron does for your nervous system. Think polished, fresh, natural; the kind of finish people assume is genetics, not the three products you quietly relied on.

Eco Tan
Forget the orange era. Eco Tan is the Gold Coast born overachiever that cracked the code on clean, believable bronzing long before everyone else caught on. Their iconic Face Tan Water is the kind of product people write love letters to: clears breakouts, calms redness, and delivers a holiday glow without stepping foot outside. Invisible Tan is the nighttime version of a beach holiday. Swipe it on, go to sleep, wake up like someone just paid for your Bali flights. Certified organic. No toxins. No application dramas. Just a glow that looks expensive and behaves itself.

Mukti Organics
If your skin has been dropping hints; dullness, dryness, tiny rebellions around the chin, then Mukti is the brand that stages a quiet, elegant intervention. Australia’s original certified organic skincare pioneer, Mukti has been making clean beauty look smarter, sharper, and frankly more grown up for 25 years. This is not “throw a botanical at it and hope for the best” skincare; this is science backed, results driven, native Australian botanicals meet cosmeceuticals mastery. Think peptide serums that act like personal trainers for your collagen, antioxidant oils that behave like eight hours of sleep, and rituals that make your bathroom feel like a Mullumbimby spa. Sustainable, sophisticated, and actually effective, Mukti is the high performance upgrade your top shelf has been waiting for.

Urbnsurf
If the ocean had a corporate rival, it would be URBNSURF, and honestly, the ocean should be nervous. Perfect waves, on demand, in Melbourne and Sydney, engineered for everyone from “first time standing on foam” to “takes surf trips as personality.” Beginners get kind, confidence-boosting rollers. Intermediates get clean faces to sharpen whatever they call their style. Experts get sections that make fully grown adults cancel their weekend plans and mutter “one more run.” Add coaching, lessons, bays for the mini-groms, and gift cards that solve the “what do I get someone who already has everything?” dilemma. A surf trip without needing a passport, or the ocean’s mood swings.

Step One Underwear
Forget everything you know about underwear. Step One is the bamboo powered comeback story that started with one guy, one brutal hike across New Zealand, and one life altering chafe incident that should honestly be studied in a lab. Greg Taylor came home, refused to suffer ever again, and built underwear that treats your thighs the way a five star hotel treats its guests. Soft, breathable, and engineered to seriously reduce chafing, all while staying sustainable. Men, women, kids; whether they’ve got a backside or just a polite suggestion of one, Step One has a solution for it. Limited colour drops, cult favourites, and the kind of everyday essentials that turn people into brand loyalists with frightening speed.

The Collagen Co.
If your skin has been quietly begging for backup, this is the collagen that finally shows up. The Unflavoured Premium Collagen Peptides are the insiders’ pick because they disappear into absolutely everything and then quietly get to work. Coffee, smoothies, bone broth, your late night hot chocolate; no taste, no grit, just 15 grams of grass fed hydrolysed peptides with vitamin C, hyaluronic acid and biotin doing laps in the background. Give it four to eight weeks and you’ll start clocking the receipts: smoother, bouncier skin, thicker hair, stronger nails, happier joints and a general sense that you may have accidentally aged in reverse. This is the serious one you build a routine around, the stealth overachiever that plays well with whatever wellness cocktail you’re experimenting with.

Seed & Sprout
What happens when someone finally snaps over cracked plastic, leaky leftovers and lunchboxes that act like they’re doing you a favour. Seed and Sprout builds the upgrades your kitchen should have come with. The zero waste empire that tackles every domestic battleground: pantry chaos, rogue snacks, and that suspicious smell in the bottom drawer. The heroes are the pieces you end up preaching about. The CrunchBox that fits an actual sandwich, glass bowls that survive oven to fridge to life meltdown, silicone that refuses to stain, and cleaning bars that make dish soap feel prehistoric. This is eco without the beige guilt.

Everlasting Candle Co.
Most candles live fast and die ugly. Everlasting Candle Co took one look at that fate and invented something better. Steel sticks that never melt, a hand blown glass vase that looks like it belongs in an interior designer’s mood board and Pristine Oil that burns clean enough to impress your most judgmental friend. No smoke, no scent, no wax disasters creeping across your table. Just a tall confident flame that behaves like it has somewhere important to be. It is the kind of ambience that turns heads and makes traditional candles feel embarrassingly last season.

Flexibraid® Packable Hats
Most hats demand a gentle hand and a prayer. Flexibraid laughs in the face of both. Engineered to be crushed, packed, sat on and resurrected without a wrinkle, it is the Australian invention for people who want sun protection without the diva behaviour. UPF50 plus, colourfast and wind ready, it springs back into shape like it has something to prove. Whether you are on a boat, a golf course or running late to brunch, this is the hat that keeps its cool even when you don’t. It is long wear, long haul, buy once and keep forever energy, disguised as a very good looking hat.

Aromababy
Some brands chase trends. Aromababy has been quietly running the nursery since 1994. It is the baby skincare line created by a mother who realised newborn skin deserves more than cheap perfume and mystery lotions. Everything is made in Australia using certified organic oils like calendula, jojoba and evening primrose, chosen because they actually do something. The Barrier Balm is the cult favourite: a silky all purpose salve for dry patches, tiny rashes and the occasional adult meltdown. This is the baby gift people choose when they refuse to put supermarket chemistry on newborn skin.

Scarlet Period Wear
Period care has been stuck in the dark ages; Scarlet dragged it into the wellness era. Independently owned, PFAS-free, and designed by a woman who survived stage-4 endo and decided the industry needed a redesign, not a rebrand. Their leak-proof underwear actually replaces pads. The wireless heat pad is the first one that doesn’t make you feel like a crinkly hot potato. And the swimwear? Finally lets you get in the water without negotiating with the moon. This is femtech built for real bodies and real flows, not the microplastic-laced mythology those old pads sold you.

AyurScience Skin Care
Some brands talk about “ancient wisdom” like it’s a mood board. AyurScience actually backs it with pharmacists, clinical data and 5,000 years of Ayurvedic receipts. This is where sandalwood, saffron and turmeric stop being wellness clichés and start behaving like dermatology. Their masks don’t just make you look glowy for the length of a selfie, they reset imbalance at the source with AyurActive, a dual-herbal complex built from Amla and Tulsi. The textures are creamy, the scent is ritual-level calming, and the results feel like you finally switched your skin from survival mode to strategy. If your face has been hinting that it’s tired of chaos, this is the upgrade.

KINE
Most wipes are plastic in a pretty costume... landfill in waiting. Kine is the Australian brand that finally calls their bluff. These are plant-based, dermatologist-tested body cloths that actually break down instead of haunting waterways for the next century. Flushable to the strict AS/NZS 5328 standard, made locally in South Australia, and infused with chamomile, jojoba, and vitamin E so your skin feels cared for, not chemically negotiated with. Throw them in a gym bag, glovebox, or weekender. They’re the grown-up version of wipes: clean, conscious, and built for people who don’t want to be part of the microplastic problem.
Sale: 15% off first purchase using BIOHAX15

Look Good Feel Better - Christmas Box
Some gifts feel nice. This one genuinely matters. The Look Good Feel Better Christmas Box is a $25 feel-good powerhouse that helps fund free workshops for Australians facing cancer; confidence classes, community, and a moment to feel like themselves again. Inside each box is over $100 worth of beauty and wellness favourites from brands that actually show up when it counts. Avène, Go-To, Jurlique, Clarins, Vida Glow and more. Every box is a lucky dip wrapped in a Maggi McDonald design that looks boutique, feels generous, and sends impact further than anything you can wrap in ribbon. It’s the rare gift that delights someone you love and lifts someone else at the same time.

SDS Australia does not do half measures, except right now, when their luxury saunas and ice baths are literally 50% off.

It’s European craftsmanship, Australian grit, and straight-up indulgence for anyone ready to turn their backyard into a wellness institution. If you’ve ever said “one day,” congratulations... today finally counts.

Kyveli Organic Olive Oil
Kyveli is the olive oil you pull out when the guests you actually like come over. Born on a centuries old family grove in the southern Peloponnese and stewarded by Australian couple Harry and Morgan Labrakis, this is the bottle that makes every supermarket oil feel like a sad imposter. Each olive is hand picked early in the season, pressed within hours and never touched by machinery, sprays or shortcuts. The result is liquid gold with a cult level flavour profile and the kind of purity you can taste straight from the spoon. Small batch, certified organic, poured and labelled by hand. This is not pantry filler. This is the main event.

Funday Natural Sweets
FUNDAY’s Santa’s Sweets Bon Bon is the one time BioHax bends the rules, because even the wellness purists deserve a little Christmas mischief. These fruity gummies come with no added sugar, no sugar alcohols, natural flavours, natural colours, and prebiotic fibre so your gut doesn’t throw a tantrum in the middle of December. It’s the perfect stocking stuffer for people who want festive fun without the metabolic meltdown. Think of it as Christmas cheer, minus the crash; a bright little treat that keeps things sweet, simple, and semi-saintly. Available from 4 November.

FUCA Organic Sunscreen
A skincare brand that literally stands for F U Cancer, FUCA is here for every complexion that’s ever been stressed, sensitised, or just downright over it. Pronounced foo-kah, the brand was born when founder Jess needed formulas gentle enough for chemo-affected skin but powerful enough to actually work. The Summer Essentials Box delivers their mineral SPF 50+ and a wide-brimmed summer hat; a duo that keeps skin protected, calm, and comfortably dewy all season. This is clean beauty with backbone: fragrance-free, vegan, cruelty-free, and proudly made in Australia. A gift that feels good, looks good, and does good.

The brand’s cult-favourite chew toys are fully compostable, sustainably made and wildly durable, meaning your dog can destroy Christmas in a guilt-free, planet-friendly way.
