Holiday Gift Guide with Philosophy

philosophy holiday 2016

In place of traditional holiday gift guides, that feature multiple products by multiple brands, I’m doing something a little different. I’ll be rounding up my favourite presents for the season, but each day I’ll be showcasing a different company. Make sure to check back daily as I’ll have a new brand with my must-have holiday gifts for the season.

I for one usually gets wrapped up in holiday collections and forget that brands offer a wide variety of core products that are equally as beautiful. So instead of just focusing on Philosophy’s Holiday 2016 Collection, I’m also going to share a few of my favourite products that can be found all year round. The holiday collection is inspired by the land of hope and wonder, specifically the Nutcracker, with festive and whimsical packaging. If features some of the brand’s classic skincare, fragrance and bath and body sets. The core collection is equally as beautiful and can be found at Sephora, Shoppers Drug Mart and Hudson’s Bay.
