Two Lunar New Year collector editions, either of which would work fine for Christmas too: at left, Lunar New Year Lazy Sunday Morning from Maison Margiela, 100 ml for $130, and at right, Lunar New Year Love Osmanthus Absolue Pure Perfume from Atelier Cologne, $140 for 100 ml. Both are at Sephora.
Garnier introduced their organic skincare line, Garnier Bio, in 2019, but it still isn't officially distributed in the US and I have no idea if there are plans. If it ever gets here, my two top wishes: the Orange Blossom Micellar Water (£6.99 at Super Drug) and the Organic Lemongrass Gel Wash ($8 at Look Fantastic), both of which you can find in Canada, or really nearly anywhere but here. There are also Melissa and Cornflower Micellar Waters, a Thyme Toner, Lavandin Eye Cream, Lemongrass moisturizer, Argan Mist, and more.
Yet another lemmable holiday scented candle: the Liberty x Bongénie Grieder Bois d'Or from Mizensir. "The Bois d'Or scented candle by Mizensir comes here in a stencil embellished with an enchanted alpine forest print which was created thanks to the exclusive collaboration for Christmas between Bongénie Grieder and the London house Liberty. It entices with notes of cedar wood and licorice mingled with patchouli, sandal wood, leather and incense." 230g, 75 CHF (about $85) at Bongénie-Grieder in Switzerland.
From Chantecaille, Rose Geranium and Basil Hand Sanitizer: "A luxurious hand sanitizer spray infused with botanicals and the uplifting fragrance of rose geranium and basil essential oils plus 70% alcohol to effectively cleanse and purify. Use liberally on hands to disinfect. Also great for sanitizing high-contact surfaces including phone, doorknobs, keyboards, handrails and more.
