Christmas is right around the corner, and if you still haven’t decided what to gift your loved ones, we have a few holy grails that we personally share with friends and family, all year long that can be delivered right to your home. So skip the Christmas traffic this year and pick and choose the best wellness gifts to keep the people you love happy and healthy as you ring in 2023.
1. Oh, Holiday! Apothecary
Rene Rosa Rodrigo is an internationally-licensed herbalist, and one of our favorite people to chat with about all things botika ni lola! She is a graduate Western Herbal Medicine in the UK, as well as Integrative Holistic Nutrition from IIN in New York State and is registered with the Association of Naturopathic Practitioners (ANP) in the UK. Her specialities include hormonal imbalances (endometriosis, PCOS, thyroid problems, etc.), autoimmune disease management, general support for organ systems, children’s health and herbs, as well as vaccine protocol. Browse her online store for Restorative Tea Blends and find blends that would suit the loved one you have in mind – they come in 100 grams, 200 grams, or 100 grams in a pretty glass jar.
2. Pure Culture Beauty Products
We may be a little obsessed with Pure Culture’s biome-friendly skincare, which are made with superior calming, hydrating, and brightening actives.They are the first Philippine brand to be Safe Cosmetics Australia certified, which means they meet the standards for Australian Certified Toxic-Free and its formulations essentially free-from the top-offending chemicals associated with potentially contaminated carcinogenic chemicals that are commonly found in cosmetics, personal care and household products. Their Holiday Gift Boxes are cruelty-free certified, allergy-certified, and vegan friendly certified.
3 . Oh So Healthy! Poppers and Crisps
One you pop, you really can’t stop! Whether it be their Baked Crisps made with 100% fruits and vegetables or their baked Osh Pops (we cannot get enough of the sour cream flavor!), there’s no denying how addicting these snacks are! The perfect alternative for the salt and MSG-laden snacks. We highly recommend the Choco Mango Dipped Crisps, OSH! Pops! White Cheddar Pops and OSH! Pops! Sour Cream! You can buy them online on their website, Shopee, or Lazada.
4. Kimi Lu’s Manifest Oracle Daily Motivation Oracle Deck
Manifest your best life with he first manifestation deck in the Philippines with 38 cards co-created by life coach Kimi Lu and her Manifest Cheerleaders. If you look through the deck, you’ll see a manifest card from our very own Dr. Candy Drilon-Dalman there, too! Buy your own deck bundled with a matching Love & Light tote bag on Lazada.
5. Young Living Starter Kit
While kids get to believe in Santa and the magic of Christmas, we get to believe in essential oils, because there’s research that backs up its effectivity! Aromatherapy has been a fantastic holistic approach in which these highly concentrated, aromatic plant oils are used in small amounts either diffused, added topically, or even just inhaled from the bottle, to assist with shifting your mood, helping you focus, or alleviating congestion or stress, and Young Living has the purest oils in the business.

6. Kangen Water Machine
A fantastic investment for the entire family, Kangen water machines have completely revolutionized how we think of drinking water and that not all drinking water is created equal. Certified as a medical device in Japan, this machine produces six different types of water – everything from super alkaline drinking water, to pure clean water, beauty toner water (similar to the pH of rain water), cleaning water, and even acidic water akin to bleach (think Kurin). Invest in your health and send Kangen Philippines a message – mention Centro Holistico and get up to P30,000 worth of freebies as well as free installation!
