  2. Oooh!  Those lovely people at Sussex based organic beauty company Green People are celebrating their 25th birthday this year.  Yes, they've been running for 25 years and in that time they have won lots of awards for their gorgeous beauty products!

    They've got everything you need for all the family, from babies and toddlers to teenagers and adults, with products for skin care, hair, sun care, body care, make-up, anti-ageing products, and wellbeing.  

    This could be a great chance to grab some gifts for people who love trying different beauty products if they haven't tried Green People before - I use them and LOVE them, especially because I know they do a lot for charities close to my heart.  Take a look at their Gifts section here

    Their gifts section includes wellbeing gifts, hand and body gifts, skin care gifts, gift vouchers and something for teenagers as well!
