Looking to buy a gift for a vegan gal that’s glam, boujie, and always up on the latest trends? Here are 9 vegan gifts for her that she’ll totally love (especially if she has similar taste to me).
This morning I got a text from my little sister asking where she could order a vegan-friendly holiday treat for her friend. “I sent all my other friends popcorn from the Popcorn Factory, but this friend is vegan,” my sister explained.
I recommended Root Nine Baking Co., which I have yet to try but looks amazing and ships cookies worldwide. I would happily accept a gift from here for the holidays.
If you, like my sister, have a vegan lady in your life and are wondering what’s on her wish list, here are a couple ideas—from snacks and cooking tools, to cruelty-free beauty, to reusable water bottles and swimsuits made from recycled plastic.
1. Cruelty-free lashes that are as luxurious as mink
Amber Magnetic Lashes & Liner Kit, $55.95 (ON SALE)
I’ve been on a magnetic lash kick ever since I tried Glamnetic lashes for a Galore article earlier this year—but I found a brand I like even better. Lola’s Lashes offer luxury magnetic lash sets that come with one set of lashes, magnetic liner, and liner remover (because magnetic liner is difficult to get off with regular makeup remover). Once you get the set, you can buy additional lashes separately.
Honestly, these sets are so nice you could probably gift one without even wrapping it. And these lashes stay on better than any I’ve tried!
2. A monthly snack subscription box
Good vegan snacks can be hard to find. This small business based in LA ships 12-20 (depending on which box you choose) vegan and gluten-free snacks to you or your loved ones. You can also purchase a subscription so the person you gift receives a new box each month.

3. A wardrobe rental membership
I’ve had a Fashionpass membership for nearly two years now, and I still repeatedly sing its praises (read my full review here). Your vegan friend will love the sustainability benefits of “renting” clothes, and her wardrobe (and insta-game) will get a major upgrade.

4. A cute kitchen tool
Dash Mini Rice Cooker/Steamer, $19.99
Want to get your vegan friend a gift they’ll actually use? A rice cooker or air fryer is definitely the way to go. And how cute is this one in pink?
Since most of us are cooking more than usual, either of these tools will def help your vegan friend out. My rice cooker changed my life, and I love my mini one because I cook for one person, so the mini size is perfect for prepping a week’s worth of meals.
5. Vegan makeup that’s anything but basic
Estate makeup’s products are always 100% vegan and cruelty-free, and they offer tons of off-the-wall colors (think purple metallic lipsticks) so that vegan doesn’t have to mean boring or neutral-toned.

6. A trendy, reusable water bottle
Healthish WB-1 Bottle, $30 (Currently on sale for $25)
You might be like, “girls really want water bottles for Christmas?” And yes, yes they do. Nice water bottles are expensive. I have been pretty loyal to my S’well bottle in the last few years, but this Healthish Glass Water Bottle is so aesthetically pleasing and perfect for someone who needs help getting in enough water each day.
7. A luxury swimsuit made from recycled materials
Dahlia One Piece in Black, $148
Hear me out: sexy swimwear that’s made from discarded fishing nets.
RAWA Swimwear makes going green look good. Their suits are ethically produced made with ECONYL, a 100% regenerated nylon that’s made from pre- and post-industrial waste. Not sure if it’s the fabric or just the quality, but these suits are comfy AF!

8. A meal delivery service
For a while, all I wanted for Christmas was a week’s worth of meals from Sakara Life, a vegan meal-delivery service that all your favorite VS angels swear by. But Sakara is ridiculously pricey (even for a boujie bitch like me), and I couldn’t find a more affordable, comparable quality substitute anywhere—until now!
Herb and Seed is an LA-based vegan meal delivery service that launched six months ago. They offer breakfasts, lunches, and dinners at a very affordable rate for those living in the LA area. To give you an idea, if you eat three meals a day, you can get four day’s worth of meals for about $170 (Sakara Life is about $400 or so in comparison).
Herb and Seed are also focused on sustainability by running a zero waste kitchen, and using compostable delivery products.
Oh, and the meal options are fab! They offer tons of gluten-free and soy-free options if like me you try to avoid those types of foods. I’ve just started trying their offerings, and it’s definitely restaurant quality food (not like those boring rice, broccoli, and tofu dishes you see in typical vegan meal delivery services).
9. A cheeky t-shirt for the naughty vegan
Not every vegan girl would wear this, but if you know me than you know I totally would…
