    35 Things From Amazon That'll Make Perfect Gifts

    "That don't impress me much" —you and Shania Twain watching everyone else scramble to find the perfect gift because they didn't check out this list.

    Hey! While we’re doing our best to make sure the products we feature will arrive in time for Christmas, shipping times are especially tricky this year and can vary depending on where you live, which product you purchase, and more. Shop early and be sure to double check the retailers’ websites for shipping information to ensure that your gift will arrive in time for the 25th!

    1. A dip powder kit so they can perfect their at-home manicure and save money in the long run. The powder dries in just 30 seconds, and reviewers say the color stays chip-free for weeks.

    2. A handy puzzle board if they're big on puzzles but small on space. It comes with a removable assembly board that can hold a 1,000-piece puzzle, and the case itself has five sorting trays and two handles for easy carrying.

    3. A 1,000-piece murder mystery puzzle that'll keep the whole family occupied for hours. And it's basically two gifts in one! Once you put together the puzzle, read the included booklet and try and figure out whodunnit.

    4. A mystery box of cat hats for the pet owner who adores dressing up their feline — or, err, I mean rabbit.

    5. A pound of cereal marshmallows, because they believe that the best part of Lucky Charms are the charms (and they're not wrong!).

    6. A Drinking Animals Coloring Book or a Jason Momoa coloring book to take the edge off — with coloring, a cocktail recipe, and fantasies of Aquaman.

    7. A pack of PS4 controller thumbsticks so their game is never ruined by a misclick or slippery, sweaty thumbs.

    8. A Tushy bidet attachment if you've been with your S.O. so long that you know all their ~dirty~ secrets — including that they don't wipe well. This'll leave them with a cleaner crack and help y'all reduce the amount of TP you use. Plus it has the added benefit of water temperature control, meaning you can control how warm or cold the spray is.

    9. A dog DNA kit that'll show them exactly what kind of dog your beloved rescue mutt is.

    10. A 23andMe test for the person who thinks they know everything about themselves *and* the person who knows basically nothing about their family history.

    11. A pair of ankle socks, because all the book lover in your life wants for the holidays is a few blissful uninterrupted hours to read.

    12. A fleece half-zip pullover to wear in a house, with a mouse, here, there, and anywhere.

    13. A box of 100 couples conversation starters so you never stop learning new things about your S.O. But don't toss out the deck once you've gone through it; revisit it in a little bit and you may be surprised how your answers change.

    14. Hand Lettering 101 if your pal wants to improve their penmanship. Also, Meghan Markle did calligraphy before she met Prince Harry, and I'm not saying that this book will help them marry their own prince, but I'm also not saying that that is outside the realm of possibility.

    15. A pair of flattened hoop earrings that'll add some bling to your look. ~Hoop~ there it is — and by "it," I mean a beautiful and timeless pair of earrings.

    16. A set of floral abstract prints for your sister who just bought a home and who has been so excited to decorate it but doesn't know where to start.

    17. A 2Pour because having to brew separate cups of coffee is annoying and a time suck. This AeroPress accessory allows you to press two cups at the same time so you and your S.O. can actually enjoy your java at the same time.

    18. A pack of LED strip lights to help you cousin trick out his ride. *Insert Pimp My Ride intro music* "So you wanna be a player? But your wheels ain't fly..."

    19. A pair of nonslip yoga gloves and yoga socks so they can move through their flows without slipping and sliding all over a mat.

    20. A VR headset if your video game–obsessed sibling wants a more immersive gaming experience. You can even use it to just watch TV if you want to feel like you're really there.

    21. A two-pack of Tile Bluetooth trackers that'll put a stop to your partner's most-asked question: "Honey, can you call my phone?" Good thing they'll never need help ~finding~ all the reasons they love you.

    22. A truffle seasoning for anyone with expensive tastes. They can sprinkle it on pizza, pasta, salads, eggs, popcorn, french fries, and anything else that speaks to them.

    23. A mini Pusheen cross-stitch kit because chonky cats and ridiculously adorable embroidery is their core aesthetic.

    24. A box of flavor-tripping tablets to totally transform their taste buds. Lemons that taste as sweet as lemonade? Hot sauce that tastes like hot donut glaze? What even is food?

    Model wincing as they eat a sour lemon before eating the tablets, and then smiling while eating the lemon after eating the tablet

    25. A Sophia Petrillo-scented candle so they can burn it while re-watching The Golden Girls for the millionth time. Picture it, Christmas morning 2020...

    The candle with a label that reads "smells like sarcasm mixed with life advice. Picture it, Sicily 1912"

    26. A mini clay bakeshop kit if they love all things mini and you love that you don't have to smile through the pain of eating their cooking.

    27. A set of cute pens that'll make them smile and think of you as they sit at their desk and hate their job.

    The pens, which have cat-shaped tips and cat designs on them

    28. Musicals: The Definitive Illustrated Story for the theater nerd with an insatiable desire to learn everything there is to know about musicals and Broadway.

    A page from the book called "Gold Diggers of 1933"

    29. Codenames because the fun really starts after they open their gift. It's a word association game that requires multiple people, and yes, I am free, thank you so much for letting me join your team!

    30. A pair of glowing light saber chopsticks to ~force~ them to acknowledge that yes, you are the world's best gift giver.

    31. A pair of build-your-own yoga pants so you can shimmy into a pair of leggings made just for you.

    32. A block heel buckle sandal if you thought a cute and comfy pair of heels didn't exist. Well, you thought wrong!

    The tan sandals with a thin toe strap and a thicker foot strap and tortoiseshell square buckle

    33. A handy and minimalist charging stand that'll juice an iPhone, AirPods, and an Apple Watch simultaneously. The tag definitely said it was for them but for some reason all your tech stuff is on it...weird.

    34. A side-tie sweater so cute you'll get ~wrapped~ up in its spell.

    35. A box of drink infusions to take an at-home cocktail (or mocktail) to the next level. Each sachet is filled with an artfully crafted blend of spices, fruits, and botanicals that'll spice up your alcoholic beverage, soda, or water.

    The boxes stacked on top of each other and artfully arranged
