Seasons Greetings from your favorite Gummynauts! ✨🎄👩🏻🚀
We’ve created a handy Gummy Gift Guide for everyone, including those difficult-to-buy-for loved ones!
Plus, we’ve been scouring the cosmos (internet) for holiday discounts and gift sets of some of our favorite products, and we’re orbiting back around to share some of our favorite deals and steals!
Need a last-minute stocking stuffer? A premium gift set? We’ve got you.
For each category, we’ve included both a “Gummy” suggestion (obvs) and a “Parallel Universe” suggestion: our non-gummy selection from brands we love, with benefits that we love.
(Also, we won’t tell if you just buy these for yourself. We’re big fans of the one for you, two for me model of gift purchasing. ‘Tis the season. 🤫)
As always, if you try something, let us know what you think! Happy holidays! We are wishing you an expansive and joyous new year.
xoxo,
Gummy Girl

For the Beauty Lover
The Gummy
Embody Retinol Gummies
Sometimes it’s hard to shop for the Sephora VIB in your life. The one who has the newest NuFace device and gets microneedling on the reg. (We’re kind of envious. There’s a wannabe Influencer inside all of us.)
But now’s your chance to influence them with one of our favorite beauty products (and gummies!). We’re pretty convinced that Embody’s groundbreaking Retinol gummy will be the hot new beauty gummy in 2021. We love that this delicious gummy eliminates the need to slather our skin in Retin-A, which can actually increase our skin’s sensitivity. Let 2021 be the year of starting your beauty routine from the inside out.
The Parallel Universe
Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Cream
This Brazilian babe doesn’t need any introduction. This flashy sunshiney tub of joy has been calling out to us on the shelves for years. But it wasn’t until we tried it at long last that we realized what we’d been missing. It wasn’t just packaging and hype.
Bum Bum actually works! It’s kind of incredible, really.
We love that caffeine-packed Guarana visibly improves the texture of the skin, and that it’s also packed with so many wonderful ingredients like Acai Oil, Brazil Nut Oil and Cupuaçu Butter. This is truly a gift for the bum bum.
It doesn’t hurt that Sol de Janeiro translates to “Sun of January”, and this will give a little bit of sunshine for your Beauty Lover’s bum bum as we inevitably nosedive in the post-holiday January doldrums.
Plus, we could all use a jump start on looking peak Carnaval fierce come February. And that warm vanilla scent will keep them cozy on the darkest winter nights.
If you really want to show your love, pick up Sol de Janeiro’s limited edition Wild Extravaganza Holiday Pack. It’s got 240ml of Bum Bum Cream, plus their Crush Hair + Body Mist, 4-Play Moisturizing Shower Cream-Gel, and Brazilian Kiss Cupuacu Lip Butter. Literally Wild.
For the Light Sleeper
The Gummy
Sugarbearhair Sleep Bundle
If there’s one thing we could all use for the 2020 holiday season, it’s some epic sleep. Recovery from this past year is possibly the best gift anyone could give, and Sugarbearhair has just the ticket.
They’re offering a Sleep Bundle, which contains 3 bottles of their incredible Sleep Vitamins, one small bottle of Sleep Vitamins, a luxury sleep mask, and an adorable pair of sleep socks.
This is a great chance to stock up on some melatonin + mood-boosting 5HTP and give the gift of a peaceful winter hibernation.
The Parallel Universe
Charlotte’s Web CBDMedic Pain Relief Roller
Charlotte’s Web recently released their CBDMedic line of pain-relieving topicals, and this roller is the perfect nightstand dreamfriend. The active ingredients are camphor & menthol, with 200mg of CBD added per stick to support muscle relaxation.
Charlotte’s Web also offers this formulation as a massage oil, which we love, but the Roller makes it super easy to hit all those little spots that could use relief before bed.
Think of this as premium Tiger Balm, stalking muscles aches through a jungle of icy-hot relaxing scents, as you fall into the arms of the Sugar Bear and drift off into sugarplum dreams.
You can use the code GUMMYGALAXY to get 15% off. Happy Holidays!
Also, just FYI, Charlotte’s Web has some really nice Holiday Gift Sets available, if you want to give the gifts of gummies & high quality CBD oils. Check them out here.
For the One Who Needs Some Chill
(aka All of Us in 2020)
The Gummy
Natural Vitality Calm Gummies
We’re big fans of magnesium here in the Gummy Galaxy, and we’ve found these Calm Gummies to deliver a relaxing tsunami of magnesium-induced chill.
If you’re not familiar with the potential calm-giving properties of magnesium, we can anecdotally report that these gummies work. We are still steeling our nerves to work up to the suggested dose of 4, but even eating two of these puts us in a real gentle ocean of calm, just like the image on the bottle portends.
We can’t speak for everyone, but our nerves have all been a tad frayed this year, so we recommend giving the gift of magnesium far and wide. They’ll call you Magnesium Claus.
The Parallel Universe
Highline Wellness’ CBD Bath Bomb
Soak Life is a year round pastime for us, but the holidays, with all of their attendant stress, seasonal darkness (really, sun setting at 4?), and end-of-the-year Life Contemplations make bath time even more critical.
Let 100mg of CBD take you away (CBD is the new Calgon FYI), but that’s not all! This bomb of glory also includes the whole tranquility enchilada: Lavender, Frankincense, Rose, Himalayan Salt, and some Calendula to make sure your skin stays soft with all that soaking.
It’s hard for us to imagine this Highline Wellness Bath Bomb + a couple of candles wouldn’t be the best stocking stuffer around.
Or, if you’re looking to really stuff that stocking, check out Highline Wellness’ CBD Gift Kits, which offer substantial discounts on everything from Gummy Sample Packs to CBD Facial Mist + Under Eye Balm.
For your Romantic Partner
The Gummy
Not Pot
Figuring out what to gift your romantic partner can be kind of tricky! We’ve found that fun, affordable luxuries are always a sure bet.
Plus, holidays with your partner can be a real mix of cozy and stressful, swinging between curling up in front of a crackling fire and navigating all kinds of logistics, travel, and various family dynamics.
Nothing checks all these boxes better than these adorable CBD gummies from Not Pot. Popping these together in front of the fireplace on long winter nights and melting into each other’s arms is the perfect gift of relaxation & quality time.

Moon Juice Sex Dust
What’s a better way to celebrate the New Year than with some adaptogenic magic that boosts the passion in the bedroom? Yes, please. ✨🙋🏻♀️ If you’re not on the adaptogenic train, 2021 is the perfect time to start bringing the glory of stress-relieving plants into your life. Adaptogens are various plant extracts that can help with managing stress and cortisol levels in the body.
And Moon Juice’s Sex Dust contains a proprietary blend of adaptogenetic heavy-hitters: Shatavari balances hormones, Shilajit is an herbal libido enhancer, Epimedium, aka the famed “horny goat weed,” and Schisandra which is used to increase blood flow. Stimulating Cacao & Maca show up to revitalize you inside and outside the bedroom.
We also love Moon Juice, because they package these potent plants into the cutest, sparkliest products around, all while making your body a better place to be. Your partner will probably agree, too. 😉
Heads up: there’s a waitlist for ordering this on MoonJuice.com, but it’s in stock at Sephora.
Oh, if you want to get super delux, Charlotte’s Web has a Couples CBD Gift Set, which includes your choice of Gummies, Oil, and Body Balm or Cream. 🤤
For Dad
The Gummy
SmartyPants Organics Men’s Multi
Dads might not be ones to grab a bottle of gummy vitamins (or any vitamins) for themselves, so this is the perfect gateway gummy to introduce our dads to the wonders of the gummy galaxies.
Packed with important vitamins, with an emphasis on D3 + K2 for bone support, B12 & Zinc for immune support, plus Omega fatty acids and Beta-Carotines, SmartyPants has created a solid foundational multi for men.
Organic, vegetarian, and third-party tested, these are some of the most premium men’s multi gummies out there. Dad says thanks.
The Parallel Universe
Charlotte’s Web Athletic Bundle
And if your dads are anything like ours, they’re always out there moving, lifting, hauling, renovating, and whatever else dads do that leaves them a little wiped out in the La Z Boy.
We consider being a dad to be an athletic undertaking, and the Charlotte’s Web Athletic Bundle is a complete kit for recovery.
The Bundle includes three kinds of Charlotte’s Web’s CBDMedic recovery magicians: ointment, a roller stick, and a massage oil.
Endorsed by Rob Gronkowski, this trifecta will help keep dad in the game.
For Mom
The Gummy
Goli Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies
Moms do it all. So when we thought of the gummy that does it all, we thought of Goli, the world’s first Apple Cider Vinegar Gummy. Apple Cider Vinegar can be a little hard on the palette and the stomach, so this tasty and convenient ACV delivery system is a do-it-all gem.
Goli’s Apple Cider Vinegar gummies assist a variety of functions in the body. From digestive health to immune support, as well as potentially improving energy and skin appearance!
Think of this gummy as your mom: helpful, sweet, packed full of good things, and reminding you way too often to take care of yourself.
Multi-tasking moms everywhere approve.
(Moms also approve of savings, so use the code thegummygalaxy to get 25% off their 3 and 5 packs. 😘)

Biossance Overnight Results
One of our favorite gift discoveries was that Biossance is offering four of their best products in a one-stop shop of skincare’s greatest hits. We’ve written about how much we love their Vitamin C + Rose Oil as a dream vegan collagen stimulator, but, for the holidays you can get it (in travel size) with a host of some of their other amazing products to broaden your Biossance horizons.
This premium gift set includes four of their best-selling Squalane products. (Squalane is another vegan skincare gem, helping to keep skin moisturized and boost elasticity.)
Why get mom just the Vitamin C Rose Oil when you can also give her a full-size Squalane + Lactic Acid Resurfacing Night Serum, plus travel sizes of their divine Squalane + Marine Algae Eye Cream and nourishing Squalane + Rose Vegan Lip Balm?
This set is a total steal and mom totally deserves it. Let’s be honest, mom deserves a plethora of skin care greatness after all of those sleepless nights taking care of you.
