The 97th Academy Awards will be held this coming Sunday at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, where after the awards ceremony, attendees will be able to enjoy a party and receive various exclusive gifts to the 25 nominees in the acting and directing categories.

Gift bags are known for their extravagance, and are given to nominees to recognize their work and support charitable causes. So, if you've ever wondered, here's what's included in the gifts for this year's Oscar nominees.

According to a statement released by Distinctive Assets , the marketing firm behind the giveaways, this year's exclusive bags include a full line of skincare products, as well as a selection of haircare products, four nights at a luxury resort in the Maldives, or a five-night retreat in the hills of Sri Lanka.

The package also features more specialized gifts like a genetic testing kit that allows people to discover information about their ethnicity, access to body contouring procedures (such as liposuction) , and more exotic ones like cannabis joints for dogs.

Additionally, this year’s grant is notable for its philanthropic efforts, as in light of the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles earlier this year, nominees will also receive $1 million in disaster recovery support from Bright Harbor, as well as free project management of home renovations from Los Angeles-based construction company Maison Construction.

"Whether they are pampering themselves or sharing these generous gifts as a care package for a friend who may have recently lost their home, we give these gifts not based on the need of the recipients, but out of a desire to brighten someone's day and recognize a job well done," said Lash Fary, founder of Distinctive Assets, in the same statement.

Artists such as Ariana Grande ('Wicked'), Demi Moore ('The Substance'), Sebastian Stan ('The Apprentice'), Colman Domingo ('Sing Sing'), Zoe Saldaña and Karla Sofía Gascón ('Emilia Pérez') will receive "a six-figure gift bag designed to pamper, delight and inspire (...) regardless of whether or not they take home that iconic gold statuette" the company assured.
