1. A drool-worthy chocolate subscription box, because why wait around for someone to get you chocolates on Valentine's Day when you can have some delivered to your door every single month?
In each box, you'll get a sampling of sweets from truffles to caramels wrapped in dark, white, and milk chocolate. Once you figure out your favorites, you can also order a custom box!
Promising review: "The chocolate was a big hit as a gift. We even bought a box (well, a few boxes) for ourselves. I love how you can buy a box of just one flavor on their website, and the subscription is a great way to try new flavors — we never saw the same chocolate twice. We must have tried over 60 so far!" —Kevin
Get it from Cratejoy for $9.95+/month (available in quarter, half, and one pound boxes). (Dietary restrictions? Get a box of vegan or kosher chocolate from Amazon for $36.95+.)
2. A totally super bracelet or necklace from Alex and Ani's Wonder Woman collection to remind you that you're a badass, even if your V-Day plans are starting to resemble no man's land.
3. A waterproof leather watch no one will believe cost less than $20.
4. A sexy PJ set that'll be perfect for lounging in luxury by yourself or spending the night with ~company~.
Promising review: "The material is super soft and silky. I bought a lot of other sleepwear at the same time and this material is the best, hands down. These are also better quality than the others I bought. This set fits so well. It's so comfortable to lounge in and the the lace trim makes it very classy. I absolutely love it!" —JouJou Minoux
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes XS-XL and in seven colors).
5. A luxe set of bath bombs infused with essential oils guaranteed to make you wanna stay in the tub 'til you're pruney.
Promising review: "These are the bomb. The scents are so relaxing and they leave my skin silky soft. Plus, they're all natural so they won't leave any color in the tub at all." —Gail Weisblat
Get a set of six from Amazon for $13.99.
6. A lavender-scented, heatable fox friend who just wants to snuggle up with you on chilly February nights.
Promising review: "I'm in love with this little guy. I heated it in the microwave for only 30 seconds, and it stayed warm for almost an hour. The recommended microwave time is 60 seconds, so I'm sure it will stay warm for even longer in the future. The smell is great and not too strong. My son hasn't put it down since we got it in the mail, so it looks like I'll be ordering another for myself!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $18.85.
7. An un-bear-ably cute set of animal socks that are excellent listeners. They'll be all ears, even to the uni-corn-iest of musings.
Promising review: "These are super cute, fit well, and are comfortable! They came packaged nicely (each pair was clipped together on the top and bottom, then they were all bound together with a ribbon and in a resealable pouch). I bought them as a gift, but I found something else for the person. Suffice it to say I'm glad I got to keep them!" —SS
Get a set of five from Amazon for $10.99 (available in 10 designs).
8. A 32-piece makeup brush set that contains every brush you've ever wanted, and some you never even knew you needed.

Phew, that's a lot!
Promising review: "I love these brushes! They are very soft and don't shed at all. They're extremely durable and perfect for everyday use. I've bought expensive brushes in the past, and they pale in comparison to these. I recommend this set to anyone looking to expand their brush collection or even to makeup novices." —Amy Lake
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in two colors).
9. Some chic stemless wine glasses to up your entertaining game (or your drinking by yourself game).
This set has over 1,000 positive Amazon reviews and, with four glasses, is a perfect starter set. You'll have enough for when friends stop by, but you'll still have enough room in your cabinet for, uh, actual wine.
Promising review: "I got these to replace all of the stem glasses which perished at the hands of clumsy friends and over-exuberant pets. They're wonderful! They haven't broken yet, I don't worry that they will shatter when I wash them, they feel substantial, and they look great. The best part is that they're affordable, and no cats or friends have prevailed over these yet." —elkile
Get a set of four from Amazon for $16.95.
10. A knockout party dress that's sheer perfection.
Promising review: "I ordered this dress as a last-minute look for a charity event and it was PERFECT! I will be wearing it a lot. The fit is perfect and it's unbelievably comfortable. I love that you can slightly adjust the waist with the snaps on the back. I received several compliments from strangers at the event. It's a winner!" —DBuehrle
Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in sizes S-XXL and in 10 colors).
11. A velvet throw blanket so snuggly, it could replace your SO.
Promising review: "This throw is great! It's so soft, and the color is deep and bright at the same time. I keep it on my sofa so it's always in reach, and it looks very pretty hanging over the back of the couch. It's a good size for one person, and I didn't have any issues when I washed it — it didn't pill, shed, or fade." —Kt I.
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in five colors and two sizes).
12. Gorgeous velvet mules (be they splurge-y or super affordable) that are your true solemates. My new OTP? My feet and these shoes.
13. A glam robe so you'll feel cute even when you're just chillin' on your couch, ugly crying over This Is Us.
Plus IT HAS POCKETS (!!!), aka the most important attribute of any garment.
Promising review: "This robe is so soft and smooth. The pockets are nice and deep, the hems hit exactly like in the picture (at the elbows and mid-thigh), and the inside tie is a nice touch. It's a great robe for the price." —Rebecca Neel
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in sizes S-XXL and in 20 colors).
14. Absolutely adorable heart lipstick you'll be dying to kiss up to.
15. Glitzy ear jackets (which can also be converted to simple studs) to show your lobes some love.
16. A LOL-worthy mug that hates labels just as much as you do.
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in eight sayings).
17. The Satisfyer Pro 2, which is possibly the best gift anyone in possession of a vagina can give themselves.
Your new bedside BFF is fully waterproof and comes with a convenient magnetic charger.
Promising review: "It’s a beautiful and sleek device — it's smooth, with curves in all the right places to be able to cradle it in the palm of your hand and keep it in place. The fifth setting was incredible for me. Imagine your spot getting hit and you telling your partner “right there” and they ACTUALLY stay right there! Unfortunately, I can’t vouch for the remaining settings (there are 11) because I never made it that far. I think I may have passed out. Or maybe I left my body for a moment and came back. Or got abducted by aliens. There is a blank space in my memory shortly thereafter so I’m still not sure." —Sho Dan
Get it from Amazon for $47.95.
18. And perhaps some sexy tunes to complete your me-time atmosphere, like Miguel's latest album, "War and Leisure."
19. Splurge-worthy Bluetooth headphones for the times when you just need to be alone with your playlist.
These beautiful babies are collapsible and come with a carrying case, because you won't be able to be apart from them for even a second.
Promising review: "This is a great pair of headphones. I really love the quality of the bass and acoustics. These have 40 hours of battery life, which is INSANE! You can basically listen to music on and off for two weeks without a charge. If they do die, you can fast charge them for five minutes and get two to three hours of play time. The Bluetooth connectivity is very simple with Apple products, and you can travel up to 300 feet away from your cell phone while wearing these and the music will not break up. That's much farther than most other Bluetooth devices." —MindSeedTV
Get them from Amazon for $219.99 (available in 14 colors).
20. A hella refreshing rosewater spray to wake yourself — and your skin — up on dreary winter days.
People swear by this stuff (it has over 2,500 positive Amazon reviews), which can be used in tons of different ways. It can be a pretty-smelling pick-me-up when you're feeling sleepy, a makeup base, a remedy for dry, red skin, a frizz-prevention hair spray, and more.
Promising review: "I LOVE this spray. It smells like Turkish Delight to me (because of the rose extract), which is awesome. I spray my hair with it when it's wet and I have next to no frizz when it dries. I also use it on my face after a deep exfoliation, and it soothes and restores my skin and keeps oil at bay for the rest of the day." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $7.
21. A fun animal coloring book that's a totally sweet (and under $5) stress reliever.
Promising review: "This is a cute book of animal designs by artists from around the world, which means it has a variety of styles within one book. Most designs are fairly simple to color but have enough detail to make coloring them fun. My colored pencils work well with the paper." —iiiireader
Get it from Amazon for $4.99. Get colored pencils from Amazon for $6.61.
22. An adorable knit sweater so you can wear your heart on your sleeve on Valentine's Day and beyond.
23. An awesome experience like a spa treatment or heck, even a full-on vacation. You deserve it.
24. A mini instant camera with a built-in selfie mirror, so it's just what you need for snapping pics alone or with friends.
The camera includes a close-up lens attachment and will suggest the proper brightness setting for your location before you take your shot. Then, just adjust the dial and fire away!
Promising review: "This is a great buy, and I love that it comes with a wristband. It's easy to use and the instructions are very clear. The photos take about a minute to completely develop. I love it and am going to use it at my birthday dinner." —Gabriela Brito
Get it from Amazon for $55.61+ (available in five colors). Get extra film here.
25. A highly-reviewed foot massage roller for when bae's not around to rub your tootsies.
Over 2,000 Amazon reviewers love this roller, which you can use while you're sitting or standing up.
Promising review: "This product is amazing. I've recently been having foot problems due to a lot of walking and wearing heels too often. I was paying over $25 a week for foot massages. Now, with this roller, I'm able to get the same relief without the weekly cost. It really does work wonders! It's definitely one of my better buys and I often recommend it to people I know." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $18.95.
26. Squee-worthy stress relief toys that you shall call squishy and they will be yours and they will be your squishies.
27. A bright, 35-color eyeshadow palette that's easy on the eyes and even easier on the wallet.
Promising review: "If you're a makeup lover, you need this in your life. This eyeshadow palette is freakin' AMAZING! The shadows blend so flawlessly and the shimmers are so bold and pigmented. I am absolutely in love with this and it saved me from paying more for the Morphe one. I created one of my favorite looks ever (above) with it and can't wait to create more!" —danielle
Get it from Amazon for $11.88.
28. A luxurious silk pillowcase that'll give new meaning to the phrase "beauty sleep."
Promising review: "For years, I've been told I should get a silk pillowcase because it's great for skin and hair. I finally bought this one and it's one of the best purchases I have ever made for myself! The quality is great, it feels awesome against my skin, my hair looks fantastic in the morning, my skin looks better than ever, and I'm just super impressed! Do yourself a favor and buy one — you won't regret it." —Lesanna Dahlen
Get it from Amazon for $22.90+ (available in six sizes and 31 colors).
29. A whimsical cotton candy maker, because when you say you need a little sugar, you're not just talking about wanting a boo.
The machine comes with two cones and a sugar scoop and works with sugar or hard candy, so you can create all sorts of flavors.
Promising review: "I'm so glad I bought this. I put it on my kitchen island and it stayed put the whole time. It made a very good amount of candy from one scoop of sugar, and did it quickly, too. I made enough for my three kids and for myself in just a few minutes, and cleanup was a breeze. This was worth every penny!" —Madeline Matias
Get it from Amazon for $23.99, or get a bundle that also includes three bottles of colored sugar from Amazon for $49.99.

It's perfect for making dinner for one or a shareable snack, and your cheesy delight will be ready in just five minutes.
Promising review: "I have always pan-fried quesadillas, but it can be tricky and messy. This makes creating quesadillas a breeze. My family and I love to try different combinations of ingredients and create new recipes. It's so simple and is super easy to clean." —B. Almizyed
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
34. Pretty pens sure to make you smile every time you have to jot something down.

36. A hilarious pair of hippo slippers for all you Fiona stans out there.
Promising review: " I couldn't resist buying these for myself. They're so funny and adorable. They're really warm and they fit true to size, and they're tighter around the ankle, which I like. This is a great product, and I definitely recommend them if you're looking for something fun." —Christine
Get them from Amazon for $22.99+ (available sizes S-XXL as well as toddler size, and in 39 animals).
37. A sharp crossbody bag that you'll use for the rest of your damn life.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this bag! It's the perfect shape —
roomy enough on the inside to fit everything you need, but small enough to not feel awkward and bulky as a crossbody. The small handle at the top is so cute, and the long strap can be neatly tucked away inside the bag if you want more of a clutch than a crossbody." —Amie123456789
Get it from Nordstrom for $56.95 (available in two colors).
38. A sweet heart-shaped ottoman you're gonna fall head over heels for (and if you get hurt from said fall, you can then rest said heels on this).

The badass comedian's first book has only been out two months and it already has over 1,000 positive Amazon reviews!
Promising review: "I didn’t want to put this book down! It's laugh-out-loud funny, filled with nuggets of wisdom, and is one of the realest books I’ve read in a while. It was like having a conversation with a good friend and as I read it, I could ‘hear’ her telling the stories. Tiffany is an incredibly resilient spirit! After all that she’s been through, her persistent pursuit of purpose is awe-inspiring." —Cynthia Turner
Get it from Amazon for $11+.
42. A lovely set of three mini orchids that'll brighten all of your spaces and survive way longer than a basic bouquet.
Get it from Amazon for $37.99.
