Our Team's Ultimate Gift Guide

Don't fret, we've got you covered!

Somehow it's mid-November and the holidays have basically crept up on us...yet again. Whether that means you're stressed about deadlines at work, coordinating menus for your hosting duties, or arranging your travel plans and bracing yourself for family time, we ALL have those gifting obligations to attend to. Luckily, we've tapped our very own team to share not only their EVOLVh must-have and must-gift favorites, but also their personal wish lists and suggestions for foolproof prezzies from brands they love. So what if you snag some goodies for yourself while dutifully checking everyone off that list? We won't judge!

The ultimate men’s (or unisex) trio has you covered from head to toe: 

The SmartBody Foaming Wash is an amazing sulfate-free moisturizing cleansing foam that is concentrated and long lasting, and is better for our planet when going down the drain. It's nothing short of a luxurious win-win for all.

The UltraShine Moisture Shampoo is a luxurious color-safe shampoo for all hair types that visibly smooths and increases shine and elasticity, while transforming texture and improving hair health.

The TotalControl Styling Créme - this silicone-free "strongest" hold botanical formula is the greatest styling cream ever made for creating soft, touchable volume and fullness with natural movement and shine that lasts for days.

Taos Aer Deodorant in Palo Santo Blood Orange - truly next level deodorant - get the subscription, it’s a great value!

Ayla Sea Soak - the supreme gift for the bath lover in your life.
