Green Your Partner’s Valentine’s Day Gifts This Year

There are lots of commercial and clichéd gifts you could buy your partner, but how many boxes of chocolate and wine can he consume? This year, do something different for Valentine’s Day. Give him something he’ll really like that can also spread some love in the world. Here are some ideas.

Support A Cause

Imagine if you could buy your boyfriend a gift that actually saves someone’s life? By choosing to buy a donation in your partner’s name, you can support an important cause that benefits someone’s life. UNICEF offers a variety of donations you can make to help those in need. For example, you could buy a $50 donation that gives 200 children polio vaccines or $69 to give malnourished children access to superfoods and formulas that can get them back to health. Choose a cause that’s close to your partner’s heart to further give this gift meaning.

Bring A Backpack

If your guy loves backpacks but you don’t want to get him something from a regular store, get him an Ace backpack that’s made from recycled billboards. How cool is that? He’ll love having something he can use while looking totally unique when he leaves the house.

Let Him Grill

If your partner loves to BBQ on the weekends, buy him a Solsource solar cooker. He can whip up a variety of different foods, whether baked, boiled, fried, or grilled. How the cooker works is that it reflects UV rays from the sun onto the base of the cookware. This provides enough heat for pots and pans, while the reflective panels stay cool so you can safely touch it while cooking.

Give Him Good Skin

If your guy’s got really sensitive skin or keeps saying that he must get some new skincare products, now’s your chance to give him green goodies to keep his skin in top shape. Hey, even guys like a bit of pampering every now and then. French brand 66°30 offers organic skincare for men, with ingredients such as moisturising shea butter, sunflower oil, and jojoba. There’s a whole range of skincare products available, from daily skincare products to face scrubs and masks. Whether your guy’s into skin TLC or only interested in basic skincare, he can get gorgeous, smooth, and glowing skin. The brand even has a patented Urban Shield in all five products of their Care Line that consists of six plant extracts. These offer your man protection against UV rays, air conditioning, stress, and pollution.
