2025 Holiday Gift Guide for Beauty and Wellness Enthusiasts

THE GIFT GUIDES ARE HERE!!!

I’ve got some very fun gifting ideas for a variety of humans: Beauty and Wellness Enthusiasts (below), Home Cooks and Food Lovers, Home and Style Mavens, and, of course, Dudes. 

We all know that holidays aren’t about the presents. BUT giving presents can also be a small joy, and I take great pride each year in helping some of you find the perfect thing for someone you love. Especially the tougher giftees. (I feel this pain. Everyone in my family is shockingly difficult to shop for.)

As always, my hope is that these gift guides help make shopping for your people a little bit easier and more fun. And reminder that it can sometimes be helpful to forward these gift guides to significant others/family members with the subject “Hint, hiiiint.”

Happy shopping, friends! Wishing you and yours the happiest of holiday seasons. Sending a virtual hug.

2025 Holiday Gift Guide For Beauty and Wellness Enthusiasts:

Shower Steamer for Every Occasion Gift Set. This set of aromatherapy steamer tablets will transform any shower into a spa-like experience. The set includes 12 shower steamers for just about every occasion from “It’s Bedtime” to “Post-Workout Refresh” and comes very happy, colorful packaging.

Kassatex Sakura Waffle-Terry Robe. There are few greater luxuries in life than a cushy bathrobe, and the combination of waffle and terrycloth will likely speak to any fellow robe lover’s soul.

Bala Wavy Mat. For the exercise enthusiast who appreciates aesthetics! The wavy edges on this cushioned mat will make any workout that much more appealing.

The Sculpt Society 3-Pound Hand Weights. The ergonomic D-shape design of these neoprene-lined hand weights makes them easy to grip during even the sweatiest workouts. Pair them with a Sculpt Society membership (or any favorite at-home workout membership) if you’re feeling particularly generous.

T3 Curling Straightener. This multipurpose styler can create sleek straight strands, polished waves, or bouncy curls! While it’s an excellent tool for all hair textures and lengths, it’s particularly helpful for those (like me) struggling to style their shorter hair.

K18 HeatBounce Heat Protectant. I feel like a lot of people skip heat protectant before working with hot tools, which is a big mistake. Huge. (Sadly, I speak from experience.) This spray protects hair and boosts shine without being too heavy or greasy.

Raffia Tennis Tote. Should you have a tennis player in your life, this woven tote would be a very chic way for them transport their racket and everything else they may need for the day.

Bearaby Calmer Neck Wrap. This cozy wrap combines weight and heat to deliver calming comfort to the neck, back, and shoulders. It can also be popped in the freezer to relieve sore muscles. (p.s. Bearaby is known for their weighted blankets if you’re in need of a present for an anxious loved one.)

CurrentBody Series 2 LED Neck and Décolletage Mask. I’ve been raving about my CurrentBody face mask to anyone who will listen for years at this point, and this recently launched Series 2 mask delivers the same glow-boosting technology to the neck and chest. The mask harnesses the power of red and near-infrared wavelengths to boost collagen production, which plumps the skin, smooths wrinkles, and helps fade hyperpigmentation. If you’re spoiling a loved one, consider gifting them the face and neck kit!

Stitch Sampler Beginner Embroidery Kit. A shocking number of my friends have taken up embroidery recently (late 30s are wild!) and rave about how satisfying and calming it is. This starter kit has everything one might need to start their embroidery “journey,” and there are step-by-step videos to help them along the way.

Merit Signature Lip Liner + Shade Slick Lip Oil. I’m a big fan of MERIT products in general, but I particularly love their lip liner (it’s buildable and glides on so easily) and hydrating lip gloss. There are endless color options, but my go-to lip duo is the liner in shade Coupé topped with the lip oil in shade Pointelle. (In my experience, this rosy nude combo looks gorgeous on pretty much everyone!)

Bombas Travel Compression Sock and Gripper Slipper Set. For the traveler who needs a little extra support! Knee-high compression socks are an excellent companion on long flights, and the slippers will protect feet on planes, trains, and questionable hotel rooms.

A Thoughtful Gift Certificate. If you know that someone you love has a favorite facial, massage, or workout, they will be absolutely appreciate a free session. If they don’t have a go-to, do a little research to find a great local aesthetician/spa/workout studio.

Skinceuticals HA Intensifier Multi-Glycan. This serum is a game changer on the hydration front. It’s one of my personal holy grail products for plumping skin and instantly softening the appearance of fine lines.

Beyond Yoga Unity Zip Jacket. Make a girl’s commute to the gym/studio a little cozier! This cropped fleece jacket is the ultimate layering piece and comes in a few versatile colors.
