    31 Little Gifts Under $30 To Give Your Valentine This Year

    Show you care (without blowing your budget).

    1. A packet of shower steamers that'll make their morning routine feel like a trip to the spa. They're intensely scented with essential oils (like eucalyptus and grapefruit, par example) that get activated with — you guessed it! — shower steam.

    2. A vertical computer mouse that'll keep their hand from cramping in the middle of a campaign. Reviewers say their hand and arm pain is basically banished (oh, and it's wireless, too, so they won't get tangled up cables during gameplay).

    3. A pair of repairing hand masks if regular lotion just ain't cutting it anymore. They're unscented and packed with shea butter and prebiotic oat extract that'll stop dry skin in its tracks (just make sure they massage in all that goodness – don't rinse!).

    4. A detangling brush that won't damage your partner's curly locks. The special teeth will glide right through tangles and knots (and reviewers say it's just as effective for fine hair as it is for thick tresses).

    5. A pack of fuzzy socks if you're tired of them always putting their icy feet on your back. Reviewers say they're the perfect combo of soft and slouchy so your partner can even rock them to bed.

    6. A bottle of Starbucks cold brew coffee concentrate so they can whip up a batch in a flash the next time the afternoon sleepies hit. Reviewers say it tastes delicious mixed with everything from cream to protein powders — at a fraction of the cost of coffee shop versions!

    7. A colour-changing lip balm that'll transform into their own personal shade of ~fab~. It's super hydrating, goes on silky-smooth, and will even plump up their pucker in the process (perfect for V-Day smooching).

    8. A USB-powered humidifier if harsh indoor heating is making their skin feel positively parched. Reviewers say it's whisper-quiet and love that it can last through their entire workday (or through a good night's snooze).

    9. An NSFW edition of Exploding Kittens that'll be instantly recognizable to any avid boardgamers. It has the same rules as the original, with the fun addition of a few (okay, more than a few) naughty additions. Bring on the boob wizards!

    10. A set of pearl-encrusted hair clips that are big and strong enough to secure even the thickest mane. They're super lightweight, too, which means they won't tug and pull at your partner's baby hairs.

    11. A LifeStraw that'll transform even the dingiest puddle into drinkable water. It'll filter out up to 99.99% of waterborne bacteria and protozoan parasites (and filters to 0.2 microns — that's TINY, y'all).

    12. A reusable shadow shield that'll keep their eye makeup where it should be (on their eyes, not dusted all over their face). The straight edge is for swiping on a *crisp* coat of liner and they can even toss it in the fridge beforehand if they want some extra ~chill~.

    13. A jewellery stand because your partner's bling deserves to be tidy and tangle-free. It's got racks for their layering chains, plus perforated bars for stashing their earrings (and even a petite catch-all tray for the rest of their treasures).

    14. A fleecy Hanes sweatshirt that reviewers say is the comfiest one they've ever owned. It's easy to see why — it's perfectly oversized, super soft, and looks just as good worn with tights as it does layered over a fancy collared shirt.

    15. A pack of de-puffing eye masks that reviewers say deserve all the gold stars. Thanks to hyaluronic acid, they're also a major moisture bomb, helping to keep undereyes from drying out during the colder months.

    16. A glitzy PopSockets phone holder so they can respond to texts, take videos, and snap pics with one hand. It'll pop down flat (which means it won't get in the way when they wanna slip their phone in their pocket) and works great as a stand for video chats, too.

    17. A bottle of fancy maple syrup that's had a good, long rest in a whiskey barrel. Reviewers say it's so delicious, they've used it on everything from Brussels sprouts to ice cream (and yes, it tastes *chef's kiss* with pancakes).

    18. A silk pillowcase that'll stop their locks from getting tangled and frizzy while they're snoozing. Reviewers say it only gets softer with every wash — it's the gift that keeps on giving!

    19. A pack of absorbent wristbands so they won't get soaked while washing their face. Reviewers say they can suck up ridiculous amounts of water (and help keep their sinks and vanities from turning into a disaster, too).

    20. A bottle of sulphite-removing wine drops so they can finally enjoy their fave vino without the pounding headache. They work in seconds (20, to be exact) and reviewers say they help reduce rosacea flare-ups, too.

    21. And an aerating wine pourer that'll do all the work of a full-size decanter. Exposing wine to oxygen not only enhances its flavour, but also disperses sulphites — and this gizmo does it all without batteries or pumps.

    22. A trio of zippered travel pouches if they're already planning your next getaway together. The mesh backing will make it easy to find what they're looking for (and reviewers say they're surprisingly spacious, too).

    23. A bag of Dr. Teal's Epsom salts that'll help them unwind after a long day. Besides soothing lavender and chamomile, the blend also contains a hefty dose of melatonin that reviewers swear has helped them fall asleep faster (and stay that way, too).

    24. A facial cleansing pod that'll scrub away the day's debris. Each corner has different nodes for different skin types so they can always give their face the treatment it needs without having to swap out brush heads.

    25. A mini hydro grow kit so they can enjoy fresh herbs all year round. It's got a handy self-watering wick, which means their plant baby will always be perfectly hydrated (when the pot's empty, it's time to top up).

    26. A set of fibreglass chopsticks if they're always forgetting to grab a pair with takeout. They even have textured tips that'll help them grip their tasty treats the next time they're chowing down.

    27. A magnetic menu board if your partner loves to plan the week's meals ahead of time. Reviewers like that it even has spots for a grocery list and notes, too. Plus, it's easy to clean — bless you, dry erase!

    28. A swanky three-piece tea set that'll make your partner feel like royalty with every sip. The blends are not only totally delicious, but are actually good for their health, too (the saffron masala chai helps with digestion, for example).

    29. A set of brush pens that'll help your partner tap into their inner ~artiste~. They have soft, flexible tips and reviewers say they're perfect for beginners — the kit even comes with a water brush to make it even easier to achieve that coveted watercolour effect.

    30. A zippered cable organizer so they can keep all their tech accessories neat and tidy (and easy to find, too). It's divided into compartments for chargers, dongles, earphones, and SIM cards so stuff won't rattle around in transit.

    31. And lastly, a copy of Frank Herbert's Dune if your partner is a bona fide sci-fi nerd. Even if they haven't already read it, it's one of the bestselling science fiction novels of all time, making it a great addition to any bibliophile's collection.
