    STG had fun with this gift guide in Seattle. We went through about 100 products before we landed on these 5. If you haven’t met The Hulken, let us introduce you to the next item on your wish list. Oh, and if you were looking for an interactive cologne for your guy (yes, you read interactive), look no further. All and more are listed below in order of appearance on New Day Northwest.

    Looking for a fragrance set for him?  Men, tend to lean to scents that they identify with. So it makes sense that Phantom is such a hit since it’s inspiration is luxury meets tech. Also, its smells light and sexy and we love the robot bottle.

  • Clean and Green Beauty on WGN’s Daytime TV

    Clean and Green Beauty on WGN’s Daytime TV

    Are you looking to live a cleaner-greener life? Maybe you’re not ready to go all-in vegan but switching up other aspects and actions can be super easy and make a big impact. STG is back in Chicago on Daytime TV to share some fun ways to keep it clean and green from brands that are making serious strides to clean up their products for our health and planet!

    The FACE! For some reason, we are programmed to think we need to use super strong ingredients and chemicals to get results with our skincare. NOT TRUE! Some of the most potent ingredients come from plants and nature. Like Pure Retinols in Bliss and the healing and toning clays in Sand & Sky.

    BLISS Youth Got This
    SHOP: @Ulta
    In 2021, Bliss became the first mass and drug skincare brand to receive B Corp Certification. This certification confirms that Bliss meets the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.
    · Bliss packaging and formulas are created to consciously minimize the impact on the planet. The brand has an official partnership with TerraCycle to ensure that all packaging is 100% recyclable and to redirect packaging from landfills. Through the Bliss Recycling Program, consumers can now send in all Bliss personal care products and packaging to be recycled for free.
    · By prioritizing waste reduction initiatives, Bliss saved more than 340,000 square feet of single-use waste and an additional 900 lbs of unnecessary packaging waste from being generated in 2020 alone.

    Sand & Sky
    SHOP: @sandandsky.com
    As a clean beauty brand with locally sourced botanicals, Sand & Sky makes it a mission to tread lightly at every step of the journey. From bush to bathroom, the brand is committed to protecting the environment and giving back to local communities while creating clean skincare that works.• Clean skincare with no sulfates, silicones, parabens, petroleum, phthalates, and mineral oils, among other common nasties.   
    • All Sand & Sky packaging is 100% recyclable. The brand is also committed to using recycled materials in packaging wherever possible, with a target of less than 5% virgin plastics by 2022. 

    Lips are a hot or rather chapped topic this time of year. We’ve talked about Lanolips for moms and babies before but nothing is as clean for lips on all of us. It simply heals with “above medical grade” Aussie lanolin and so many other natural skin soothers

    Lano Fruity Babies Trio
    PRICE: $13.59
    SHOP: Exclusively @target
    – Lano is an Australian clean beauty brand that does not use petrolatum, parabens, artificial fragrance,  mineral oil, sulfates,  PEG’s or animal cruelty.
    – Has 101 uses! They can be used to help with extremely dry and chapped lips, skin patches, cuticles, and more.
    – The trio includes the three best-selling 100% natural flavors – Strawberry 101 Ointment, Coconutter 101 Ointment, and Minty 101 Ointment.- Lanolips uses ultra-pure grade Aussie lanolin (above medical grade).
    – 101 Ointment offers a safer, more effective, and 100% natural alternative to common petroleum-based balms.

    Body care is notorious for using synthetic dyes and fragrances and the packaging tends to be larger and also fills up landfills. But not Pangea. This passionate body care line is pure and sustainable. They keep it clean from soil to skin! 

    Pangea Organics
    SHOP: @PangeaOrganics.com
    • Pangea is a prestige collection of skin and body care products furled by rich, plant-based bioactive ingredients and 100% sustainable packaging, 
    • Pangea’s mission is to bring consumers the first plant-based and sustainable collection of formulas from soil to skin within plastic-free packaging that is fully recyclable aluminum bottles that are recyclable, renewable and compostable. 
    • Every innovation is packed with highly concentrated formulations with each ingredient — from Canadian Pine to Egyptian Geranium to Moroccan Cedar — telling a personal story of Pangea’s Founder’s travels.

    And last but not least, there simply is nothing like Enviro Cloth. It basically does it all. Eliminates over use of paper, cleans without harmful toxic sprays, and may be the best makeup remover cloth we’ve ever used.

    Norwex Enviro Cloth
    PRICE: $18.99
    SHOP: @Norwex.biz
    *Norwex’s EnviroCloth is kind to the environment and your wallet. This microfiber wondercloth only uses water to remove up to 99% of bacteria from just about any home surface – which means you don’t have to use any harmful chemicals when cleaning your home. 
    *The EnviroCloth is made from 70% recycled materials, and because they’re reusable, they’ll end up in your laundry – not a landfill.  
    *The BacLock technology in the microfiber self-purifies within 24 hours, so you can use these over and over again before washing.

    Looking for a fragrance set for him?  Men, tend to lean towards scents that they identify with based on the description, packaging, and even the spokesperson. This fragrance actually has a mid-level boldness but has earth undertones and sharp citrus and is all about victory. It’s one of my favorites and I don’t even like colognes. 

    Paco Rabanne Invictus 3pc Eau de Toilette Gift Set
    PRICE: $99 ($124 value) 
    SHOP: @Macys
    Inhale the scent of victory, this sensual and fresh scent is an unexpected clash of worlds and sensations. The refreshing top notes of grapefruit and the sensual heart notes of guaiac wood and patchouli create a truly magnetic woody-aquatic scent.
