A Guide to Pure Man’s Gifts for the Holidays
Cleaning products may not be on most people’s wish list, but with the right choice they can make amazingly delicious holiday gifts. That’s why I’ve put together a guide to the best cleaning supplies for you to keep your loved ones clean this holiday season.
Small jar WD-40 | Home Depot, $ 2.48.
The WD-40 does so much good in this world. Kills cockroaches. Removes tar from hair. Lubricates the mechanisms on the drawbridge!
WD-40 is a must-have for everyone, and a tiny can of this stuff can be a cute little stocking filler or a third night of Hanukkah gift because the tiny cans of WD-40 are adorable in their own way.
Glitter Sponges | Casabella, $ 5.99
Glamorous people also need to wash the dishes. These dish scouring pads can be used on pots and pans, as well as on the bathtub – great for quickly removing lather buildup so you can plunge into a glamorous bubble bath.
Shining screen | WOOSH !, 10 dollars
Gym. Metro. Shit. Think of all the disgusting places where people bring their phones. What I’m trying to say is that every phone is so disgusting, which is why this little bottle of tech cleaner is such a handy thing. This is a great little extra gift for anyone buying a new phone or laptop this holiday season!
LightHaus Cleaning Products | HausWitch, $ 12 a piece or $ 101 a set
Salem’s HausWitch Home + Healing is designed to bring a pleasant atmosphere to your home, and their line of non-abuse cleaning products will help you create your home magic. With names like Abracadabra (all-purpose cleaner), Sacred Ground (floor cleaner), and Crystal Ball (glass cleaner), they’re sure to delight the pure witch and pun lover. (Okay, yes, I am describing myself.) Buy them individually or as a set.
Let’s play house! Dust, Sweep & Mop | Lillian Vernon, $ 35.99
In 2017, there was not much joy, but an unexpected joy was the fact that all the children of my friends managed to go through the stage “cleaning is a fun game” at the same time. Which meant I was treated to photos and videos of tiny clean people with tiny mops and tiny brooms! This play set is the perfect gift for toddlers, and as a bonus, you’ll probably get a whole bunch of adorable photos in 2018.
Glitter hangers | etsy, $ 17.50
Let me line up and say that this is most likely a terrible idea . It’s just impossible that these things don’t end up spilling gloss all over the wardrobe. Making it the perfect gift for that nemesis in your life.
Shoe Shine Kit Gentlemen’s Hardware | Brand store, $ 23.
It’s overly gender-sensitive – you know, women shine shoes too! – but nevertheless, this is a really good buy for $ 23. Great for travel, this zip case includes two varnish cans (back and neutral), two shoe brushes, and a soft cloth to polish your shoes to a high shine.
Wine Away Red Wine Stain Remover | Container Shop, $ 5.99.
This is truly incredible: not only does it remove red wine stains, it also works on cranberries and pomegranates, two of the most pollutants in the world. This is a great gift for the red wine lover in your life or as a couple (okay?!?) With a bottle of wine as a present for the hostess.
Metallic lint roller | Flint, $ 9.99
This lint roller is retractable making it ideal to slip into your wallet or laptop bag to remove lint on the go. The standard matte version costs $ 7.99, but for the holidays be sure to splurge and give your gaudy loved ones a festive metal version.
