20 Sustainable Gifts Under $25

Shopping sustainable and eco-friendly products doesn’t have to break the bank. These are all budget-friendly gifts that range from $3 to $22 USD!!

I asked people on my Instagram stories to send in their favorite sustainable brands and wow did they deliver! I found some amazing new brands to shop from this year, but also included a few of my personal favorites in this list.

There is something for everyone on this list (and I bet you’ll find something for yourself, too!). All photos on this post are from the respective brands – none are my own. Thank you for shopping sustainably!

Ethique

This sustainable brand has shampoo, conditioner, and face wash bars! This eliminates plastic bottles that liquid shampoo, conditioner, and face wash are usually in.

I just discovered this brand after @bindisueirwin posted about her collaboration with them! I bought her shampoo and conditioner and have used them since November 2020. My hair has never been softer and never felt cleaner. I am officially a convert!

Prices range from about $8-17, but you can get 10% off by using my link :)


Stasher

I loveee my Stasher bags! I use them to store leftovers and cut open fruit and veggies in both the fridge and freezer. They can be tossed in the dishwasher top rack, microwaved, and boiled.

They’re seriously the best!


ReSparked Designs

For that zero waste friend, Resparked Designs creates cloth, reusable versions of typically single-use items, such as paper towels, tissues, and facial rounds.

They also make a wet bag which can be used for those cloth paper towels, cloth diapers, or even a wet swimsuit after a day at the becah!


Beeswrap

This wax-coated fabric replaces your cling film and foil coverings! Use it to cover leftovers or wrap up some snacks for a picnic.


Ecotools

My sister got me a set of EcoTools brushes a couple years ago and they’re amazing! They’re made of recyclable materials, vegan, cruelty-free, and come in tree-free paper packaging.


Seed & Sprout co

This is a sustainable Australian brand in the place I’d love to live one day – Byron Bay! They have a wide range of eco-friendly products, from shampoo bars to kitchen supplies.

They have a whole section for gifts, which makes gift giving even easier. There is so much good stuff at Seed & Sprout Co.!


Sind Beauty

Sind makes vegan, cruelty-free, natural skincare! They were recommended to me when I asked people to send in their favorite sustainable brands. They have two products – Lavender Dream Oil Cleanser and Botanical Relief Oil ($28 USD).

I love lavender and I’ve been searching for a new oil cleanser that is cruelty-free and vegan! Might just have to buy it for myself :D


Lucy and Yak

This is a sustainable New Zealand brand that sells mostly clothing, but they also have a whole “Zero Waste Living” section with things like swell water bottles, scrunchies, and mesh bags!


Package Free

Package Free carries every sustainable, eco-friendly item you could ever want! They stock multiple brands, including Stasher Bag and The Simply Co.

If you’re new to eco-friendly products but want to gift some, this is a good place to start so you can get an idea of what is out there.


Yay for Earth

Yay for Earth is a small business with handmade face lotion and a bamboo hairbrush. They have tons of before/afters showing the results from people who have used their lotion.

The travel tin size is the only one under $25, but because it is an oil moisturizer, a little bit goes a looong way!

I’m a travel blogger and photographer from the San Francisco Bay Area, splitting my time between there and Santa Barbara. I love to share comprehensive guides about my travels, with a focus on all things sun, sea, and beach! When I’m not exploring new destinations (probably somewhere by the coast), I love being home with my husband and two fluffy kitties, Captain Jack and Sparrow.
