Hey Bees! Welcome to the 2019 Humblebee & Me Holiday Gift Guide 🎁This year I’ve had a lot of fun playing with our ingredient-inspired themes of Cranberry Orange and White Chocolate Peppermint! I hope you can find some wonderfully gift-able things in this assortment of projects and formulations. I know I’ll be gifting many of these balms, butters, and lotions to my loved ones this season!

I’ve had quite a few requests for a new lip scrub formulation recently, and I thought our White Chocolate Peppermint theme was perfectly suited to a lip scrub—so here we are! This DIY is quite crunchy, with just five simple ingredients. It’s pretty easy to whip up (literally—it’s whipped!) and can be gifted in cute little tins or jars. Pair it with one (or both) of the holiday lip balms I’ve already shared this season for a decadent lip treat!

Today’s DIY is a whippy, lightweight, fast-absorbing Cranberry Orange Whipped Body Butter—and it’s also our last cranberry orange DIY of the 2019 holiday making season! You’ll only need four simple ingredients and some electric beaters to whip up this body butter. Pair it with some other DIY’ed cranberry orange goodies for a lovely gift set… or just keep it for yourself because it’s pretty awesome 😉

Mint and foot cream = a fabulous match. Mint and chocolate = also fabulous. Mint + chocolate + foot cream = amazingness! Decadent, refreshing, tingly, tootsie-treating goodness, all bundled up in a rich and silky White Chocolate Peppermint Foot Cream. This one has a double hit of peppermint, fragrant cocoa butter, soothing aloe vera, and a hefty dose of humectants to treat the feet of all your lucky giftees!

by Marie | Nov 28, 2019 | Best of 2019, Conditioner, Cranberry Orange, Projects with Videos
I’m pretty stoked to share today’s project with you—it’s a Cranberry Orange Conditioner Bar that I’ve been working on for months. Satiny cranberry seed oil, ultra-conditioning BTMS-50, shine-ifying hydrolyzed silk, and beautiful sweet orange essential oil come together to create a gorgeous solid hair conditioner bar that’ll leave your hair super soft and combable, and it’ll last forever (well, maybe not forever, but many months). It makes a beautiful gift and pairs perfectly with my White Chocolate Peppermint Shampoo Bar!

Today we’re whipping up some beautiful stocking stuffers—White Chocolate Peppermint Vegan Lip Balm! Despite lip balm being inexpensive and easy to make, people are pretty accustomed to paying about $5 a tube for the stuff. This creates a lovely opportunity for you to become the lip balm fairy for all your friends and family! Create a few batches of lip balm early in the holiday season (along with other easily giftable DIYs, like soap) and you’re ready with gifts for any and all last-minute gift exchange invites. Score!
