Our Top Gifts:
Beats Solo Buds
The Beats Solo Buds are a pair of stand-aparts that’ll shoot your giftee’s Spotify Wrapped numbers through the roof. With up to 18 hours of battery life and thoughtful acoustic design, music-obsessives will hear the difference (i.e. high-fidelity sound, deeper and clearer bass frequencies, and beyond). Grab a pair in matte gray, transparent red, or classic black.
Cosrx All About Snail Kit
Cosrx is a K-beauty superstar brand that impresses us time and time again. And the secret ingredient? Snail mucin. Explain to your giftee that despite the sound of it, there’s nothing slimy or sticky about these formulas. The snail secretion contains ample barrier-protecting peptides, which are fantastic for your skin. In the kit, she’ll get minis of the Advanced Snail Mucin Gel Cleanser, Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence, Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream, and Advanced Snail 92 All In One Cream for glowing, bouncy skin.
Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Lavender Mint Shampoo & Conditioner
A hair-loving power couple, the Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Lavender Mint Shampoo & Conditioner tackles damaged hair, tinged with peppermint and lavender to provide a satisfying tingle and cleanse impurities. Your loved one will be left with all the shine, all the volume, and all the freshness.
Snoop Dogg From Crook to Cook Cookbook
Somewhere along the way, the all-star rapper set himself apart for his kitchen skills, as evidenced by Snoop Dogg’s From Crook to Cook Cookbook. Packed with 50 of Snoop’s favorite recipes—like baked mac and cheese, orange chicken, and filet mignon—your amateur chef/hip-hop-loving little sister will be obsessed. Bonus points for the meal she makes you a few days later.
Fenchlin Vanity Mirror
The delightfully hi-tech, attractive Fenchlin Vanity Mirror is a crowd-pleaser. This lighted mirror has 14 dimmable bulbs with three light temperatures—warm, natural, and cool white—to help your giftee apply as accurately as possible. They can pop it on their vanity or hang it on the wall to save surface space.
Billie Eilish Eau de Parfum
Celebrity perfumes aren’t always a slam dunk, but the Billie Eilish Eau de Parfum is a serious success story. Never mind the beauty of the Romanesque, gold-bust bottle—the scent is divine. This ambery gourmand fragrance incorporates notes of vanilla, mandarin, and musk, perfect for transitioning from fall to winter.
Peter Thomas Roth Hydration Duo Kit
Peter Thomas Roth’s Hydration Duo Kit makes a sweet gift for your college-aged kid getting into skin care. Each product—the Water Drench Moisturizer and Cucumber De-Tox Eye Patches—provides a generous dose of hydration using a 30% hyaluronic acid complex and Pentavitin (a plant-derived, moisturizing ingredient). The result is glowiness and plumpness that lasts all day.
Polaroid Hi-Print Pocket Photo Printer
We love scrolling through our extensive (to put it lightly) photo libraries, but a printed pic hits different—especially when it doubles as a sticker. The Polaroid Hi-Print Pocket Photo Printer connects to your best friend’s phone via Bluetooth, printing photos with sticky backs in under a minute. Send her your favorite selfie of the two of you and ask her to print a second copy for you to keep for yourself.
Refurbished Dyson Airwrap
Few products make us gush like the Dyson Airwrap, especially when we can save $200—as long as your giftee’s chill with getting a flawlessly refurbished rendition. Former beauty and wellness editor Taylore Glynn said it herself, “Even with a terrible technique, my hair came out looking truly styled,” she explained. “This is worth the investment.” The six attachments make an already versatile tool even more so.
Milani Make It Last Setting Spray 2-Pack
The fact that any setting spray exists is a gift in and of itself (Makeup slipping and slipping? No, thanks), and Milani makes a really good one (or two, when you opt for this duo). Your full-glam-loving cousin will love this formula, which locks in her look for up to 24 hours, hydrating all the while.
Ninja Air Fryer
Ninja’s Air Fryer is a total game changer, and after your mom uses it for the first time, she’ll never go back. She can use it to make basically anything—from meat to veggies to desserts to low-oil french fries. Make the inaugural meal to show her the ropes. You’re such a good daughter.
Cocokind 3-Step Hydration Skin Barrier Set
Cocokind’s 3-Step Hydration Skin Barrier Set is a right-away, mini routine that goes easy on skin and cleanses without stripping. She’ll unbox an oil-to-milk cleanser (which expertly removes makeup), a ceramide and lipid-packed serum, and a polypeptide complex and squalane moisturizer. It’s well- suited for all ages, starting at tweenhood.
Luna Magic Shadow Palette
This Luna Magic Shadow Palette is composed of a lovely range of neutrals and brights for all the blending and building one could hope for. The palette features 12 metallics and 12 mattes, all richly pigmented and complimentary of all skin tones. We love the matte brown Mamacita and bronzy metallic Salsa.
Body by TPH It’s Lit Candle
The Body by TPH It’s Lit Candle was designed for a nighttime wind-down, ideal for your bestie who comes home from work with a headache almost every day. Cardamom, patchouli, turmeric, and coconut are at work to calm and center her sniffer before bed. Pro tip: Pop it on the bathroom sink and let it burn during a steamy shower.
Drybar Triple Shot Interchangeable Blow-Dryer Brush
Blow-dryer brushes are an Allure editor desert island essential, so naturally, Drybar’s Triple Shot Interchangeable Blow-Dryer Brush is squarely on our list. “If you want people to ask if you just got a professional blowout—that is, super smooth with loads of bounce—Drybar’s The Double Shot Oval Blow-Dryer Brush is the tool for you,” content director Kara McGrath previously told Allure. This iteration is complete with three brush heads—one for defined waves, one for pin-straight strands, and one for a ton of volume—for a ton of versatility.
