1. Reusable glowing chopsticks because who says the force shouldn't be with both them and their meal? These BPA-free lightsabers are officially the only utensil they'll want to use at dinner. Knives and forks = boring.
2. A fill-in-the-blank journal so mushy, it's basically a foolproof way to put a gigantic smile on their face. Prepare to jot down your favorite memories, their best qualities, and how you plan on being when you ~grow old~ together.
3. Dishwasher-safe silicone cookie stamps perfect for their next Harry Potter movie marathon. All they'll have to do is lay out some pre-made cookie dough, give it a couple of stamps, pour themselves a glass of wine while said dough bakes, and voila! It now looks like they catered.
4. An I Dew Care peel-off mask packed with a generous helping of hyaluronic acid to reveal smoother, brighter, more hydrated skin. And the Instagram opportunities whilst wearing it? Endless, thanks to the holographic finish.
5. A 2020 History Channel boxed calendar for the person who has *only* true crime shows queued on their Netflix account. Each new day will reveal a brief summary of unsolved mysteries, weird occurrences, and inexplicable events.
6. The Burn Cookbook by Jonathan Bennett and Nikki Martin, a wondrous collection of recipes and activities that will make any Regina George devotee cry tears of joy. They'll be whipping up Amber D'Allessio grilled hot dogs, "It's Like, All in Swedish" meatballs, JAMBO-laya, strawberry toaster doodles, face-smells-like-a-foot peppermint bark, and so much more with the help of this very fetch guide.
7. A pizza box with four pairs of cotton socks that are *le deep sigh* not edible. They do, however, promise to make their feet look delicious and are guaranteed to get several laughs when opened.
8. A wine bottle vacuum pumper that removers air from their ~vino~ to preserve freshness for up to a week.
9. A locket necklace so they can diffuse essential oils wherever they may go. This locket contains felt pads, so all they'll have to do is add a teeny drop of lavender to help feel more calm, cool, and collected on particularly stressful days.
10. Tiered chandelier earrings that have the witchy ability to turn their unintentionally ripped jeans and a wrinkled white tee into an ensemble suitable for champagne and caviar feasts. These beauties = the most gorgeous relic they can receive in their stocking this year.
11. A 52-week guide to encourage a more positive and appreciative attitude (AKA = I need this). This self-exploration journal is packed with inspirational quotes and prompts that will have them jotting down what they're grateful for on a daily basis, making this the perfect dose of self-reflection to go along with their morning coffee.
12. A third-generation Echo Dot that can do everything from play music and make calls to read the news and set alarms — all at the sound of their voice! Having the ability to send texts and shuffle playlists (all hands-free!) is about to completely change their life for the better.
13. Silicone bookmarks because their green thumb may be nonexistent, but these little sprouts are an easy way to ~spruce~ up their life while noting their page in that thriller paperback they're reading.
14. A Wilton desert kit that includes 12 ~cute critter~ treats, three different fondants, black candy, a round cutter, a teardrop cutter, a fondant roller, and a project card. This is perfect for the pal who prefers activities to actual gifts but is also constantly busy/impossible to make concrete plans with — just have 'em come over and create these cute treats together.
15. A Tequila Mockingbird cocktail kit to turn your book-obsessed pal into a professional mixologist. This inexpensive kit comes with two swizzle sticks, a bartender's jigger to measure out drinks, and a shortened version of the original book (which outlines15 drink recipes and notes about which books inspired them).
16. A leak-proof champagne stopper that will keep their favorite beverage as fizzy as the day it was popped. This built-in pressure pump preserves bubbles and therefore preserves the champagne, meaning it won't go to waste if they don't finish the entire bottle on the day it's opened. Now without further ado, can I get a mimosa please?
17. A vegan and cruelty-free Essence mascara set here to up their lash game like whoa. Just a few swipes of the below formulas will have everyone asking them the most coveted compliment-in-the-form-of-a-question: are those your real lashes?
18. A jade roller and gua sha set to give them the gift of an at-home facial massage. This facial duo is said to promote circulation, tighten skin, improve the effectiveness of their other skincare products, and help with lymphatic drainage to keep their face feeling glorious and de-puffed.
19. A handheld milk frother that makes it easy to whip up their very own, typically very expensive drink at home. This stainless steel whisk truly has so many darn uses: Let your mouth water at the thought of cappuccinos, lattes, hot chocolate, matcha, milk shakes, and more.
20. An Anker wireless charger one assumes could cost upwards of several trillion dollars, but is surprisingly less than $10. This gives battery power/life to their device (think everything from AirPods to Galaxy phones) and even works through tough external cases!
21. A mini essential oil diffuser that will turn their bedroom into an aromatherapy oasis. They'll just have to add in a few drops of lavender, plug this puppy in, and get ready to relax.
22. A Corkcicle glass set to guarantee that their whiskey stays colder than cold: we're talking ice cold. This glass includes a silicone mold to form a perfectly proportioned ice wedge that will keep their drink chilled but *not* watered down.
23. A trinket plate sure to have mom tearing up as soon as she carefully tears open the wrapping paper. This little piece of ceramic decor is also available with several different phrases,
24. A mini skillet that looks like part of a larger, more expensive cookware set featured on many a bridal shower registry. This is large enough to make their favorite meal but small enough to easily store away, is perfect for cooking for a party of one, and won't take up their entire sink when they don't feel like washing it right away.
25. A five-piece measuring spoon set to give their kitchen that air of "I only bake from scratch". These gorgeous copper spoons are both magnetic and stackable, meaning they'll become almost impossible to lose one of 'em in the mess that is their kitchen.
26. A Fujifilm printerthat has bluetooth capability and can pair with their smartphone, meaning they'll be able to instantly print out all the photos that have been gracing their Instagram account — all with the push of an app.
27. A Stila liquid shadow for a fantastic dose of ✨ sparkle ✨ that feels like luxury at first swipe. The formula itself is ultra blendable, lasts all day, and the shade options? Shimmery and stunning.
28. An activity journal filled with illustrations, blank pages, and prompts that will inspire them to embrace their inner weirdo. Suggestion: Write a note inside this book signifying that they don't need a lot of help in the weird department.
29. An ergonomic mirror cube puzzle to give them a piece of art that looks like it was sourced from an upscale modern art museum. They'll be using this on their long train commute from now until forever, because the puzzle itself is super challenging (but also super rewarding once completed).
30. A ceramic trinket dish that allows them to both keep their favorite jewelry in one convenient place *and* pay subtle homage to their star sign. To my fellow sassy Scorpios, hello!
31. A ceramic mug you can personalize with two different states on the front and a sappy message in the back to signify that while you may not be close geographically, you *are* in each other's hearts. For long-distance best friends, this is the perfect present.
32. A digital watch that's high quality minus the high price tag. This nifty accessory displays time and date, plus is equipped with a stopwatch and alarm functions that perhaps you won't snooze through (*cough* unlike your iPhone every single morning).
33. Kikkerland bag clips because true heartbreak is when they go to chomp on a chip just to realize that *begins to sob* it's gone stale. These cute critters will help their favorite snacks maintain fresh while also just looking really freakin' adorable.
34. A dual-ended eyeliner stamp because, IN SPITE OF THEIR BEST EFFORTS, achieving the perfect cat eye is hard and this easy-to-use tool makes it about 1000x easier. All they'll have to do is apply the stamp to their lash line and their wing will be done in mere seconds. They won't even have to use/waste 10 makeup wipes and several years of their life in order to achieve it.
35. A Jack and Sally ceramic shaker set they actually may not want to receive. It's rumored to be an absolute nightmare, especially before Christmas.
36. A Wilton pan to help them make the only dessert they want this holiday season: cookie and milk shots. This non-stick, dishwasher-safe tool will have 'em saying bottoms up in no time.
37. A portable massage ball that can provide quick stress relief, improve circulation, relieve stiffness, and just feels really darn good when run over sore muscles. It also provides 360 rotation and is comfortable to hold, which means giving your partner a massage will have never been so easy.
38. A silicone ice cube tray to give the Scrooge in your life that prefers Halloween to Christmas (#me). These molds make four giant ice skulls to ~liven~ up any mixed drink, and the molds themselves are microwave-, oven-, and dishwasher-safe.
39. A magical Thomas Kinkade coloring book featuring their favorite Disney characters: Mickey, Cinderella, Belle, those ridiculously adorable dwarves, and more.
40. An Act+Acre scalp "detox" because the amount of built-up dry shampoo that has become permanently lodged into their scalp = yuck. This cold-processed blend of moringa oil, basil leaf, amaranth oil, and baobab oil will remove impurities while promoting faster hair growth, reversing UV damage, and delivering some much-needed, non-greasy moisture that their mane will thank them for.
41. A lightning cable bracelet for the pal who's phone is always on the verge of dying. This versatile accessory ensures they'll have a charging device on hand at all times, preventing them from panicking whenever the low battery message pops up on their iPhone.
