Something for everyone
When you support JEFA-owned businesses, the holidays hit different.
They’re not only high-quality items and experiences, they’re made with love that your gente will feel.
Mamá will feel like a queen with a day of pampering at salons run by mujeres who speak her language.
Men want to feel cared for, too. Some flowers or a session with a therapist who understands his cultura will make his day.
Your hermanas - whether by DNA or de alma, will remember the laughs you shared over their favorite flavored margarita, and how sexy they felt in that new lipstick designed with their melanin in mind.
That’s why we created this guide with something special for everyone on your list, even the littlest ones.
So, go crazy this season giving gifts everyone will cherish.
