We’d like to submit Heirloom’s handcrafted Video Books for your Valentine’s Day guide: personalized, luxury keepsake boxes with built-in screens. They turn favorite travel clips into a giftable keepsake, with options for customizable covers and engraving. We can provide a full-size unit for review and do not participate in affiliate programs.
I would suggest a travel "experience" rather than a product. Perhaps a couples wellness experience to Canyon Ranch in Tucson AZ for healthy lifestyle choices and pampering (hiking, meditation, couple's spa treatment) or perhaps a lovely weekend in the tropics to reconnect with each other. Lastly, winter wonderland at The Green O in Montana (adults only) after a full day of outdoor winter activities such as snow tubing, moonbikes, dogsledding you can retire to your "tree haus" have a hot cup of cocoa by the fireplace and end the evening with a 7 course tasting menu with wine paring. More and more people are spending their money on travel experiences and less on "tangible stuff"
I'm Nicki, founder of Toothbrush Toys, a children's oral care brand revolutionizing the brushing experience for kids with one of a kind products. The new year is a great time for a health and wellness refresh, which can extend to the entire family, with new dental hygiene habits. Additionally, with February being Children's Dental Health Month, Toothbrush Toys are the perfect Valentine's Day gifts for kids. Let me know if you have any questions. I'd be happy to send samples! Thank you in advance!
We would like to submit our custom luggage tags for your Wellness & Travel and Valentine’s Day guides. They are available as ultra-durable rubber (PVC) in full color or genuine leather with a debossed logo and optional initials, with low minimums of 25+, 2–4 week lead times (rush available), and pricing from $4–$16. We can send nonreturnable full-size samples immediately, along with lifestyle images and specs.
Thanks for considering new submissions--I'd love to throw our hat in the ring. At Oakwell Beer Spa, we've built a wellness experience around thermal beer baths, private saunas, zero-gravity massage sessions, and a rotating craft beer bar. It's our take on the classic European beer spa, and it's grown into one of Denver's most-loved spots for unwinding. I'm happy to send a full-size product for the Wellness/Travel guide. Our gift cards, bath soaks, and spa boxes all translate the experience into something people can enjoy at home or during a visit. Just let me know what you'd like to review.
Thanks for the opportunity. We've sent out press samples before to help journalists cover vaginal and urinary health, especially when the angle ties into travel wellness or the winter immunity push. Our probiotics use clinically studied strains, and because we manufacture everything in-house, we can stand behind the raw materials and the stability of full-size products you'd be reviewing. I'd love to hear what you're looking for in these guides. If it helps your decision, I can walk you through how we handle formulation transparency and label compliance, since those questions tend to come up in wellness roundups. Just let me know what you need to see to determine whether we're a good fit.
Good morning. I would love to submit our just launched organic Orange Tincture for you to try for your products as the perfect wellness/travel product to help maintain healthy sleep cycles while sleeping in new places. This product is incredible to help with sleep, something I have always struggled with as do many people, especially when sleeping in hotel rooms. I am the founder of Kyoto Botanicals and I built this brand on wellness-first principles in a category increasingly THC obsessed. It's 0.0% THC (lab tested) which makes it safe and popular for everyone from athletes to your parents without having to worry about any "high", something that is of vital importance to me. It is USDA-certified organic and has just 3 ingredients (MCT oil, broad-spectrum hemp extract, and orange oil). It is 1 oz and THC-free so safe for all carry on bags for quick weekend trips or short business trips. Product: 900mg THC-Free Orange CBD Tincture Site: https://kyotobotanicals.com/products/orange-cbd-tincture Samples: Available to ship immediately for your review through UPS. Where should I send the sample? Thanks and let me know if there is anything else you need. Have a great day.
For your Wellness & Travel and Valentine’s Day guides, we can provide a complimentary two-night stay at Stingray Villa, our mini-resort in Cozumel, as a full review experience. Previously, we offered a two-night stay to Emily Reviews’ holiday gift guide as a giveaway submission. Please share timelines and review requirements, and we will coordinate booking and comply with your no-affiliate policy.
I'd love to be considered for both guides--wellness/travel and Valentine's. Our pieces are made to feel sensual and grounding, whether it's one of our ocean-inspired swimsuits or the silk-trimmed loungewear that has a quiet, ritual-like quality to it. I'm happy to send full-size product for review, and there's no affiliate component needed. Just share the shipping details and I'll get everything on its way.
I appreciate you reaching out, but I need to respectfully clarify that this query is seeking product submissions for gift guides, and as CEO of Fulfill.com, a 3PL marketplace and logistics technology company, we don't manufacture or sell consumer products. We connect e-commerce brands with fulfillment warehouses. However, I can offer valuable perspective on what makes products successful in seasonal gift guides from a logistics standpoint, having worked with hundreds of brands preparing for these exact opportunities. The brands I see succeed in gift guide placements are those who nail their fulfillment strategy before they even pitch. When MSN or major publications feature your product, you might see 500 orders in a day versus your normal 20. I've watched brands lose incredible opportunities because they couldn't handle the surge. One wellness brand we work with got featured in a major holiday guide last year and their original warehouse couldn't scale. We connected them with a 3PL partner who handled the spike flawlessly, turning that feature into 180,000 dollars in sales that month. For wellness and travel products especially, shipping speed matters enormously. Gift guide shoppers are often last-minute buyers. If your fulfillment partner can't ship same-day or next-day, you're leaving money on the table. Valentine's Day has an even harder deadline. Nobody wants their gift arriving February 16th. What I tell brands pursuing these opportunities: audit your fulfillment capacity now. Can your current setup handle 10x your normal volume? Do you have inventory positioned for fast shipping to major markets? Can you track every order in real-time? These aren't sexy questions, but they determine whether a gift guide feature becomes your best month ever or a customer service nightmare. The products that convert best in these guides aren't always the most innovative. They're the ones that arrive on time, in perfect condition, with accurate tracking. That's the logistics reality behind every successful gift guide placement. If you're a brand reading this and preparing for gift guide season, make sure your operations can deliver on the promises your products make. The exposure is incredible, but only if you can fulfill it.
