Does sleeping on silk really help your hair and skin?
When it comes to bed head and wrinkles, yes! Studies show that friction from tossing and turning causes creases in the skin, but a silky smooth surface minimizes this effect in the long run. Similarly, hair glides over this type of fabric, so you’re less likely to wake with frizz and tangles. As with most claims, be wary of unrealistic promises and don’t expect major changes liker fewer breakouts.
ECO GIVING
Your eco conscious or office gift recipient might appreciate living beauty. Gift easy care succulents, like the Living Quart Succulent . No fuss plants in unique shapes and unusual colors.

makes moisturizing lip and all over creams.

Face rollers like the Rose Quartz Crystal Facial Roller are all the rage for increasing circulation to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles; reducing puffiness under eye circles, etc — a mini facelift every day! Both women and men use and love this. Rose quartz, often an ingredient in skin care products, allegedly improves circulation and calm 
complexion. Since these have been around in Chinese skin care since the 17th century, hard to argue with the value of the stone. The Jade Rollers are most popular as that was the original stone used; and thus cost more ($63)
$28 Nordstrom
For more “manly” beauty, the Men’s Grab & Go Essentials or the Mighty Moisture Set make perfect gifts. Grab and Go offers head to toe hydration from face wash to hand cream to body scrub. The Mighty Moisture Set also covers him head to toe, including the lips. Both include 5 products. Combo Tip: He could use either with the Roller for maximum effectiveness.
