1. Pippa Packable Puffer Jacket
FP Movement
For the Neighborhood Stroller
Why We Love It: Folds into its own pouch, 17 colors
She’ll appreciate you wanting her to stay warm when you go for walks together. This lightweight-yet-warm puffer has a distinctive curved hem and slightly cropped fit, both of which make it way more flattering than standard puffer jackets.
1. Natalist Magnesium Plus
Natalist
For the New Mom
Why We Love It: Pregnancy- and breastfeeding-safe, relaxing
This raspberry-flavored drink mix has magnesium, calcium, and vitamin D3 to support relaxation, calcium absorption, and bone health—plus it really relaxes even the most anxious parent, without conking them out like sleep meds can.
3. Oak Essential Mini Routine
Oak Essentials
For the Frequent Flyer
Why We Love It: No synthetic ingredients, travel-sized
This line of skincare from designer and lifestyle influencer Jenni Kayne includes a cleanser, mask, balancing mist, restorative face oil and moisturizing balm. It’s the minimalist traveler’s go-to for rehydrating fatigued skin, sized small enough to pop into a carryon.
For the Wine Drinker
Why We Love It: Additive-free wines, educational
This selection of four natural wines comes courtesy of this woman-run online wine cellar that has clear explanations of all its wines (i.e. no oenophile jargon) and takes as its mission education about natural wines, the additive-free vintages that are one of the fastest-growing market categories. This starter kit comes with an orange, red, a pet nat (the wine industry term taken from the French words "pétillant naturel” or "naturally sparkling") and a surprise wine.
For the Hiker
Why We Love It: Wide, comfy sole, waterproof
Stylish-looking and designed for high, performance, this shoe has a gusseted tongue to keep out trail debris and a liner made of 50 percent soybean oil. And the pull tab cradles your Achilles tendon, so putting this shoe on is no great effort.
6. Brunette the Label Best Friend Hoodie
Brunette the Label
For the Lounging Lover
Why We Love It: 100 percent cotton, High waistband
This slouchy hoodie hits the sweet spot between comfort and style; gift it with the relaxed-leg shorts for a whole matchy-matchy look.
7. My Girl Wellness Gut Goals
My Girl Wellness
For the Nutrition-Minded
Why We Love It: Immune boosting, 5 billion CFU dosage
Studies show that probiotic supplements help people suffering from IBS with lessening symptoms of bloating, diarrhea, constipation and stomach discomfort, as well as assisting in the everyday absorption of nutrients (not a given in today’s fast-paced world of grabbing whatever to eat while on the go). We love that this brand of data-backed supplements has a cute little travel pouch that can hold the tablets so won’t have to lug around the whole bottle.
8. Zyllion Shiatsu Back and Neck Massager
Zyllion
For the Stress Case
Why We Love It: Heated vibration, portable
This massager plugs into your car or a wall outlet to give you a powerful massage. Inside the pillow (which is great to lie back on the floor on), there are 12 rounded heating units that rotate and radiate warmth upward and outward. And for long commutes, popping this baby between your lower back and the driver’s seat? Priceless.
For the Fan Girl
Why We Love It: Musical excellence, colored vinyl
This monster hit album has topped the charts and won the hearts of all—so this cool album cover deserves a spot in her collection, maybe even on her wall in an album frame.
10. Green Chef
Green Chef
For the Paleo Eater
Why We Love It: Keto, Paleo and other specialty meals, 30 weekly options
Pre-measured and prepped ingredients come ready to cook and include recipes she’ll love but would never have time to source (think Cuban chicken with chimichurri, smoky cilantro-lime barramundi). Best of all, she can really drill down into whatever dietary focus she’s into, including gluten-free and vegan.
11. Lululemon It's Rulu Run Half Zip
Lululemon
For the Runner
Why We Love It: Reflective details, hip length
This slim-fit top is going to keep her cozy no matter what the weather, and the safety reflective fabric will let cars see her from a distance, even in the half-light or darkness of afterhours training.
12. Cuyana Wide-Leg Pants
Cuyana
For the Comfort Dresser
Why We Love It: Washable silk, drawstring elastic waist
These trousers are as comfortable (and easy to launder) as jammies but look so glam due to their matte silk fabrication and generous pant leg size. They sit at your natural waist with a 30.5-inch inseam, just the right length for most wearers to wear with flats as well as platform-soled shoes.
13. Mini Acts of Love Anniversary Countdown
Uncommon Goods
For the Forgetful
Why We Love It: Affection-inducing, establishes tradition
Each of the ten days leading up to your anniversary, one of the two of you pulls a token from a drawstring pouch, then follows the prompt. One day it might be tender (“Give each other the biggest hug ever”) or thoughtful (“I will bring you our favorite sweet treat to share”), and after you complete it, you put the token into the custom-engraved board.
14. Hive Gift Card
Hive
For the Conscious Householder
Why We Love It: Sustainable products, wide selection from food to wellness
Is she a Whole Foods lover? Does she insist on sustainable and healthy items throughout your home, from groceries to self-care products? Give her a gift card to Hive Brands, the online shopping site that vets pantry, beverage, wellness and pet products so you don’t have to.
15. Tempur-Cloud Adjustable Pillow
Tempur-Pedic
For the Sleep Enthusiast
Why We Love It: Removable and washable cover, customizable
She can fluff, scrunch, flatten or even remove handfuls of the stuffing, which includes three kinds of material—pressure relief, plush comfort and high-density foam formulations. “The ‘loose foam’ filling makes adjusting the pillow for custom comfort regardless of your sleep position very easy,” says one user.

16. Malibu Made Body Scrub
C & the Moon
For the Bath Lover
Why We Love It: Skin softening mojo, no harmful exfoliants
Made by a Malibu-born woman with an NYU degree in alternative medicine, this scrub uses brown sugar and natural oils to naturally soften skin. Not only is this a skin-soothing pre-bath self-massage opportunity, but her skin won’t need lotion after the bath since it is left with a silky feel.
For the Playfully Sexy
Why We Love It: 8 vibration modes, customizable clamp tips
Does she (or you both) enjoy nipple play? Take that tweaking to the next level with this set of silicone nipple clamps that rumble in various intensities when clamped on. It operates by remote and has two additional clamp sizes for optimal fit—and one clamp has friction points on the clamp interiors to intensify sensation.
18. Quince Washable Stretch Silk Blouse
Quince
For the Professional Dresser
Why We Love It: Flattering drape, 10 percent stretch spandex
This long sleeve silk blouse has a notched collar and is done up in 19mm silk weight fabric (in seven jewel tones). And no dry cleaning required—just pop it in the delicate cycle on cold, and line dry.
19. Snow Peak Hozuki Lantern
Snow Peak
For the Outdoorsy
Why We Love It: Stylish design, multiple uses
This versatile battery-powered camping lamp is useful for hanging from the top of your tent using the detachable hook or using as a tabletop lamp, and it even has a flickering candle mode that interplays with the movement of the wind.
20. Younique Designs Here’s to Strong Women
Younique
For the Girl Mom
Why We Love It: Dishwasher- and Microwave-Safe
She’ll appreciate you reminding her of your shared family values, even before she’s had her morning caffeine.

Palais des Thes
For the Tea Collector
Why We Love It: Low commitment tea exploration
Each day of the holiday season, she can enjoy one of these 24 imported teas, ranging from Chinese black tea to Scandinavian tea with cranberry and elderflower. She can prep these with an infuser ball or bundle this gift with this insulated tea-making mug made for loose leaf teas.
22. Gorjana 14 K Gold Alphabet Necklace
22. Gorjana 14 K Gold Alphabet Necklace
Gorjana
For the Jewelry Lover
Why We Love It: Personalized, extends 15 to 17 inches
Worn solo or as an anchor in her ever-changing neck stack, this off-kilter initial necklace is a sweet update of the classic pendant style. Give her the initial of your child’s name, or another loved one, or start with her own.
23. Everlane The ReCashmere Cardigan
Everlane
For the Cashmere Lover
Why We Love It: 94 percent recycled cashmere, relaxed fit
The deep V-neck and slightly boxy design mean this is a layering staple, and the Italian-spun yarn uses 90 percent less emissions in its manufacture.
24. Dyson Groom Tool
Dyson
For the Dog Lover
Why We Love It: Captures loose hair, allergen removal
If she’s constantly noticing how much shedding is happening with the canines, here’s an innovative way to eliminate it while bonding with the pooch. This vacuum attachment, which fits onto most Dyson machines, lets users brush their pet, then flick a thumb control and have the hairs sucked away. The 364 bristles on the brush are slightly angled and flex as you work your way through the dog’s coat. Yes, you’re vacuuming your dog!
25. Slip Silk Pillowcase
Slip
For the Glam Sleeper
Why We Love It: Keeps hair and face from tugging on fabric, 9 colorways
Estheticians and trichologists know what’s what—you need to protect your facial skin and hair from the unnecessary friction caused by rubbing against any fabric that’s not hypoallergenic or designed to help slip across the skin. Voila—a silk pillowcase to the rescue (plus it just feels so gosh darn fancy).
26. Gardenhome Garden Tool Set
Gardenhome
Best for the Gardener
Why We Love It: Sturdy construction, easy tool transport
This ingenious set will prove useful to veteran gardeners and newbies alike. It includes a folding garden stool and a detachable canvas bag that holds five tools. Each is stainless steel with wood handles, and the weeder and weeding fork alone are worth the price of the whole set.
27. Skims Sleep Set
Skims
Best for the Hot Sleeper
Why We Love It: Cooling jersey fabric, 5 neutral colorways
Finding the perfect sleep outfit can be a challenge, so gift her this machine washable rayon-spandex set in one of the complexion-flattering shades such as ochre or copper.
28. The Nue Co. Magnesium Ease
The Nue Co.
Best for the Insomniac
Why We Love It: Natural sleep aid, topical application
Before-bed topical magnesium is all the rage among the PureWow staff, and we bet any sleep-deprived girlfriend will appreciate the relaxation it promotes. Additionally, this formula contains anti-inflammatory arnica, so it does double duty as a lightly lavender-scented muscle rub.
29. Calpak Hue Mini Carryon
Calpak
For the Light Packer
Why We Love It: Fits underneath plane seat, durable
This little wonder comes in six appealing colors and is sized to fit under most airline seats, so she'll never have to struggle with heavy overhead compartments ever again. And it's chock-full of extras, such as a TSA-approved lock, a removable inside strap to keep the lid at a 90-degree angle and a zippered interior divider with lots of pockets.
30. Brynll Mini Iron
Brynll
For the Sleek Dresser
Why We Love It: Tiny size, doesn’t require ironing board
This 5.1- by 2.5-inch mini iron is not only great for travel but also a boon for home use, since it functions as a steamer and flat iron that doesn’t need an ironing board. And the handle rotates 180 degrees so you can really get into those tiny wrinkles on collars and cuffs.
31. Soulcycle At-Home Bike
Soulcycle/Equinox
For the Mom Who Loves Her Home Workout
Why We Love It: Durability, automatic 12-month membership
The bike that launched a national craze for spin classes is now available in-home, and it comes with access to so many group classes, she won't know where to begin.
