Skincare products
AMEŌN

A luxury brand with a cause, AMEŌN utilizes cryotherapy, scientifically-curated special blends, and selective botanicals to nourish and illuminate skin while donating annually to Breast Cancer Research Foundation, an organization close to the heart of the founder, who was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 30.


Immunity supplement
ARMRA

Containing over 200 bioactive nutrients and a series of prebiotics, peptides, and antibodies that neutralize viruses and bacteria, star ingredient bovine colostrum (the very first milk produced by cows) helps ward off illness in this superfood of a supplement.


3. Firefly™ Recovery Unit, $165 for a 4-pack

Muscle recovery device
Firefly™

The ultimate muscle recovery for the fitness guru in your life, firefly devices are designed to send light shocks to the peroneal nerve (a sensation to the front and sides of the legs and top of the feet) to increase blood flow by 400% and help muscles in the area recover faster. Delivered on a seven-point scale, shocks can be tailored to the athlete’s particular needs at a time most convenient to them — during sleep, travel, or before or after a workout — making this portable device an appealing option for those consistently on the go.


Lubricant warming system
Pulse

Help that sexy someone in your life set the mood with this luxurious warming system made for intimate moments. With six colored lights — and several brightness settings — to choose from, this sleek design emanates a subtle glow that enhances the ambiance of a date night or solo sesh. The real magic happens when the extension of a palm releases the precise amount of warm lube or massage oil for a fun time.


5. Herb & Lou’s Infused Cubes in “The Cooper”, $16 for a 6-cube pack

Pre-mixed cocktail cubes
Herb & Lou's

For those who like to entertain but can’t seem to craft a cocktail, these pre-mixed cubes do all the work (just add a splash of booze) while your giftee reaps all the credit. Never again will they have to worry about mixers or measurements.


Human growth skincare
AnteAGE

A science-backed skincare system that moisturizes, smooths, and regenerates for skin that’s healthy and revitalized. The secret? Stem cells derived from human bone marrow that encourage cell repair to optimize vitality.


Pillow mist
The Raw Botonics Co.

Help someone close to you relax with this soothing pillow mist, designed to promote quality rest during slumber with a calming blend of lavender and eucalyptus essential oils and premium broad-spectrum hemp CBD. As your giftee switches positions throughout the night, CBD is released through pillow fibers and absorbed through the skin for the ultimate tranquility.

Wine glass chiller

Skin-perfecting products
Dr. Brandt

An exceptional duo for anyone who wishes to immediately erase large pores and puffy under eyes, both products work their magic only seconds after application without compromise. That means no stiffness, cracking, or countdown until reapplication, because both products last until the moment they are washed off.


12. Milan Candles in “777 Coconut Cashmere”, $65

Luxury candle
Milan Candles

A luxury candle that’s as extravagant in scent as it is in packaging. Made out of 100% natural coconut soy wax blend and beeswax and hand poured in California, each candlelit jar releases negative ions that bind to positively-charged air pollutants, canceling each other out for an all-around clean air experience.


13. Kaenon Lido Polarized Sunglasses in "Champagne", $125

Encased in sleek glass packaging and made with quality, clean ingredients, this versatile serum was created to offer its receiver the utmost luxurious of experiences, from the bedside nightstand (beautifully displayed on top, of course) to its smooth application on the skin, hair, and intimate areas. Bonus: It was crafted with the environment in mind, equipped with a refillable cartridge to help reduce waste.

Once every three months, allow this subscription service to greet the gym-goer in your life with a box full of healthy snacks, fitness apparel and accessories, supplements and more. Each delivery is vastly different from the previous one, so your giftee will never not be amazed by its contents.


Alcohol-removed wine
Jøyus

A “Jøyus” occasion can now be celebrated with this alcohol-removed bubbly rosé that’s as every bit balanced, medium-bodied, and delightful as the real deal. With prominent notes of strawberries, blackberries, and citrus, this bottle pairs well with holiday spreads and date night charcuteries alike.


20. Tabs Sex Chocolate, $27.99 for two boxes

Aphrodisiac chocolate
Tabs

Almost 1,500 reviews (899 that are five-star) boast the mystical powers of this horny chocolate that’s made its way around the internet — so much so that nearly five dozen impersonation accounts exist on Instagram — in just a few, short months.

Yoga card deck

A yoga routine as unique as the person who's gifted this deck.

Some cards even offer warm-up and follow-up poses to ensure users’ safety no matter the sequence that develops.


Lazy susan
Lynn & Liana Designs

Manufactured with acacia hardwood and glossy epoxy, this antimicrobial lazy susan is ideal for crafting exquisite butter boards, hand piecing colorful charcuterie palettes, and serving festive holiday spreads.

Vegan mixer
Mary's Mixers

The ’90s are back, but mixers with preservatives and artificial ingredients don’t have to be. For the friend who needs bartending assistance, introduce this premium, hand-crafted original sour mix.

Drinking board game
Amazon

If your friends aren’t boozers, they will be after playing this drinking board game modeled after Monopoly. Between a board that encourages shot taking and cards that really offer no other choice, the gamers in your life are in for a buzz of a good time. Unlike its muse, this version was designed to encourage laughter, not inspire competition.

With its sipping lid sealed tight, drinks maintain their original temps, even hours later. Best part? Zero condensation and no heat transfer means never having to use a coaster or worry about burning hands.


Multi-functional vibrator
Cerē

Although optimal for vagina-havers, this multi-functional vibrator can perform in myriad ways, gender aside. Implement one side for suction (nipples count!) and the other for vibration, or bend it in half to use both sides simultaneously. It can even be incorporated with a partner (let us count the ways!).


Multi-purpose ointment
Waxelene

From tattoo care and chapped lips to minor cuts, scrapes and eczema flare-ups, this multi-purpose ointment will never not be useful. That’s probably why you can purchase it in a variety of travel sizes, including this 3 oz jar, a 2 oz tube, and a mini lip tube.


Edible chocolate body paint
High on Love
