1. The Chai Box

For the chai-lover in your life, you can't go wrong with The Chai Box. They have so many different blends and concentrates to try out, and their Chai Lover Gift Set was even featured on Oprah's favorite things!

2. Zaila Silk Smoothie Moisturizer

This is the perfect moisturizer for everyday wear, and it's suited for all skin-types. It's packed with amazing ingredients like amla and licorice root, which help brighten hyperpigmentation and dullness, and reishi and aloe vera, which hydrate and nourish the skin. 

I also love Zaila's Sky Jelly serum and Himalayan Halo brightening oil, which my husband and I use every night. If you order from Zaila, be sure to use the code ARUSHI5 for a discount!  

3. Fable & Mane Holiroots Hair Oil

This oil from Fable & Mane contains ashwagandha and dashmool, which help to thicken fine hair and encourage a healthy scalp to promote hair growth. It can be massaged directly into your hair & scalp just a few hours before washing out your hair.

4. Triya Essential Oil Rollers

I love these essential oil blends. They're a great natural way to help you relax, boost immunity, relieve stress, heal and more. My husband uses the "Sleep" blend every night to help fall asleep. Each blend is hand-made, and they even have a mini-bottle sampler set, which make perfect stocking stuffers!

If you buy these, be sure to use the code ARUSHI15 for 15% off

5. Kulfi Eyeliner

Kulfi Beauty carries a wide range of eyeliner colors. I've currently been using the Purply Pataka shade and I love it. They have a Kajal eyeliner set and a holiday Kajal bundle, and their products can also be found at Sephora!

6. Ranavat Brightening Saffron Serum Mini

This brightening facial oil from Ranavat is great for reducing fine lines & wrinkles, and is a must-have for hydrating, nourishing, and firming the skin.

So good luck with your holiday shopping and go support a South Asian owned business!
