1. An at-home gel nails kit for your mom who hasn't missed a nail appointment in years. This kit has everything one needs for an at-home gel mani, which lengthens the nails the same way acrylics do, while being way easier to apply. This was one of my random midnight Amazon purchases months ago, and I haven't seen a nail tech since.
2. A LifePro vibration plate that is the ultimate upgrade to anyone's workout routine. This plate vibrates to create full-body muscle contractions and activation, which is perfect if your sibling doesn't have the time to go to the gym but still wants to get some movement in. Plus, TONS of reviewers say that this is plate is just the thing they need to help relieve joint stress and lower back pain after a long day!
3. A good chef's knife, because everyone —especially your kid who just moved into their first post-grad apartment — needs a go-to knife to slice, dice, and julienne all the veggies and fruits sitting in their fridge.
4. A Five Minute Journal that takes just a few minutes in the morning and night to fill in. Each day, your giftee will fill in the morning and nighttime prompts which include gratitude lists, goal setting, and recalling the lesson of the day. If your friend is going through a transitory time and needs some extra love, this (plus a huge box of chocolates) will be the perfect gift to help them along.
5. A lightweight Iron °Flask sports water bottle so your gym buddy can ensure they hit their water goals in strides. Like many stainless-steel water bottles, this one is double-insulated to keep cold drinks cool and hot drinks warm for what can feel like the entire day.
6. A self-stirring coffee mug if your partner always complains about sugar settling to the bottom of their mug as they sip on their joe. This'll make sure their drink is cohesive from the first sip to the last and is even great for people who love to stir powders into their drinks.
7. A hand massager, because who wouldn't want a knot-relieving hand massage after a long day of typing?! This massager uses heat, air pressure, and four kneading heads to help relieve pain and discomfort in your giftee's digits. This is perfect if your S.O. is always making puppy eyes at you for a hand rub, even when your post-WFH hands are aching themselves.
8. A copy of Let's Get Fizzical if you and your best friend can't stop talking about that one time you took an "intro to mixology" class (read: you didn't actually go to a class — you just asked a bartender lots of questions during a night out together). This recipe book is PERFECT for cocktail-making newbies — it offers over 50 recipes of bubbly cocktails plus new renditions of classics.
9. A "Breathing Buddha" guided meditation tool for your work spouse who needs a few minutes of restoration in between meetings. This lamp fades in and out to simulate breathing techniques, and even changes colors for when it's time to breathe in, hold, and breathe out!
10. A big, cozy heating pad with six temperature settings so that your active friends can soothe their aching muscles after long days at the gym. And, according to some customer reviews, small pets love snuggling up on this warm pad, too!
11. A smartphone lens kit that'll let your aspiring photographer niece or nephew take gorgeous photos from absolutely anywhere, even if they've left their DSLR camera at home. They can create cool retro skater-esque videos with the fish-eye lens, expand their image range with the wide lens, and focus in on precise details with the macro lens.
12. A cloud-shaped magnetic key holder, because having your head in the clouds sometimes means losing things from time to time. Help your sibling organize their belongings while adding a cute touch to their decor.
13. A handheld clothing steamer that's small but mighty. This is great for your fashionista boo who, it seems, is always rocking garments straight from the dry cleaners.
14. A Rosie By Jane Dulce eau de parfum, because gourmand is back, baby! Gourmand is any scent that smells like a warm dessert — think, vanilla, coffee, and chocolate — and this stuff smells like the grown-up version of that Warm Vanilla Sugar body spray your bestie* loved. They'll get that gourmand they crave with the vanilla added inside, while hinoki wood adds a woodsy scent and nude musk grounds the fragrance.
15. A calligraphy guide book to help your BUJO-loving friend amp up the aesthetic of their journal. This is a great book for anyone who builds their own daily planners, or for anyone who wants to get fancy with hand-written letters!
16. And, of course, a set of fine-point pens for the same bullet-journal-loving friend who is OBSESSED with color-coding pretty much everything in their life. This works great for their busy notebooks and will also help spark creativity while they doodle their weekends away.
17. A multipurpose immersion blender that will make soups, whipped cream, and even froth some matcha for an early morning latte. Consider this one-and-done tool for your foodie friend who's always *whipping* (ha ha, get it?) something up in the kitchen.
18. An under-the-desk elliptical, because it can be difficult to get the heart pumping while sitting in an office chair all day! If your pal always seems to be swimming in a sea of deadlines, this will become their go-to way to get a workout in while they work out their inbox. (Haha, see what I did there?)
19. A page holder to gift to the friend who is constantly talking about their latest read (and trying to get you to read it with them). Nothing screams "elevated reading experience" like something that will help them say goodbye to hand cramps while holding a novel.
20. And a sheet mask set, because everyone has that one friend who does their skincare on a plane. (It's me, I'm that one friend — plane air is so drying!) Sheet masks are great to use while traveling since they don't require any rinsing and help skin hold in moisture. Whether they're jet-setting to a new country or are just on their way to dreamland after their usual nighttime skincare routine, your best friend will love you for this one.
