Valentine’s Day is just one week away! The most important thing is to of course spend time with the one you love, but sweet little gifts are always fun – not only for your significant other but for your girlfriends and yourself, too! Here are 8 eco-friendly ideas that are so much better than your last-minute cheesy drug store finds.

1. Chocolate is a no-brainer, but this Vegan Chocolate Lovers Box from Vegan Cuts is going to rock the world of whoever receives it.

2. Petal topped candles by red flower are blended with the purest natural-burning wax and topped with a cotton wick and scented petals, which can be emptied into a small dish to subtly scent a room. Indian Jasmine is super romantic scent. See my review here.

3. 100% Pure Nail Polish is “10-free” and these three colors are all you need for the perfect Valentine’s Day manicure.

4. Get that natural rosy flush for your date night with a luxurious blush made with all natural ingredients. L’eclisse Cosmetics pressed mineral blushes are formulated without oil, talc, fragrance or synthetic dyes.

5. Breakfast in bed. Heart shaped pancakes served on a reclaimed wood tray like this one from Etsy.

6. Perfume is so cliché, but we can’t help but adore these vegan roll-on perfumes from Pacifica. Plus, they’re 15% off right now.

7. Send Night Owl Paper Goods eco-friendly valentine cards this year. Choose from sustainably-harvested birch wood or 100% reclaimed & recycled cotton paper.

8. Creative types will love these recycled newspaper pencils paint dipped in custom colors – a fun way to brighten any desk area.
