8. Cute Sleepwear:
Robes
Good for everyone and every age.
We used to think this was something only teens and adults valued until we heard our 10 year old nephew likes to lounge in his robe after each shower.
Get them the terry cloth robe for when they get out of the shower, the cushy soft robe for getting out of bed in the winter, the thin summer cover up robe for when they need just a little something extra, or a themed robe for whenever.
Cute Pajamas
Good for EVERYONE who wears them.
Even men need pjs in the winter. Hipsters and 20 somethings will love a onesie and you can even buy a set of matching holiday pj’s for the whole family. A sexy night gown or lingerie will definitely send a message on special occasions.

Again, good for EVERYONE.

Ever try walking on the cold floor barefoot in winter, or the filthy floor of a hotel room or dorm? Sure you can use socks but they get dirty and so will your sheets.
You can find slippers to fit every budget from cheap to designer.
If you’re buying for someone who travels a lot make sure you get a pair that’s easy to pack.
Since kids grow fast and tend to lose their slippers a lot, you could go to your local discount store to purchase cheaper ones.
9. Alcohol Related Gifts:
Chateau Montelena Wine
The best date night gift for wine lovers, retirees, couples, and anyone with a sophisticated palate
Score MAJOR points with wine lovers and connoisseurs by giving them a bottle of Chateau Montelena Chardonnay. This CA wine put Napa Valley on the map in the 70s by beating out all the French Chardonnays in a blind taste test.
There’s an EXCELLENT film about it called Bottle Shock starring Chris Pines, Alan Rickman, and Bill Pullman that you can purchase on Amazon.
The winery sells a nice little gift of their 2015 Chardonnay along with a signed DVD of the movie for $68. You can have it delivered right to their door. By the end of the film they’ll be popping open that bottle at the speed of light.
If you just want the wine, you can purchase Chateau Montelena Chardonnay from their website or stores like BevMo or Wine.com
Wine Preservation Device
Great for wine lovers.
These devices are a favorite of wine experts and connoisseurs because they allow you to preserve an unfinished bottle of wine for weeks or even months! We included the 2 best brands for each budget below, Vacu Vin Wine Saver and Coravin.
Coravin makes 2 good models, their Model One is a bit cheaper and lighter weight for more infrequent wine drinkers. Their Model 2 is more durable and pours quicker for more frequent wine drinkers.
Wine Aerator
MUST HAVE for Wine lovers!
This can instantly make a $5 dollar bottle taste like a $100 one and a $100 bottle taste like $1,000. It really makes a difference! Here are 2 of the best wine aerators that can transform even the cheapest bottle of wine and preserve it for up to a week. The Secura Deluxe is RIDICULOUSLY affordable yet effective!
You can also get them an RTIC Insulated Wine Bottle so that once they aerate their wine, they can keep it at the right temperature when they’re outdoors. It comes in two sizes a half bottle of wine (375 ml) or a full bottle (750 ml).

11. Experience
A great gift for everyone.
Buy them passes to their favorite theme park, tickets to their favorite concert, show, or even movie tickets.
Our brother in law always wanted to skydive but after having a baby, our sister didn’t want him to take the risk, so we bought him indoor skydiving tickets.
You can also find really great deals on Groupon just be sure to check the reviews.
If you’re short on funds, take them to a favorite park or place they have been wanting to visit.
If they’re far away, buy them a plane or train ticket to visit anytime they want.
A Class or Online Course
Stay at home moms, retirees, teens.
Give them the gift of knowledge and buy them an online course they have been eyeballing or a class. Blogging, cooking, even yoga will give them some me time. How about ballroom or salsa?
12. Beauty & Personal Care
Magnifying Mirror
Good for everyone Men, Women, Teens, parents, and the whole family.
This is something a whole family will not only use but may fight over.
Men use it for nose hairs, eyebrow trimming, and shaving, Teens for their make up and zit analysis, and even grandparents for chin hairs!
We were gifted a dual sided magnifying mirror for Christmas 10 years ago and still use it multiple times a day. It makes plucking eyebrows a breeze and when we have family over, they’re always taking a look.
Lip Balm
Good for everyone from kids to teens to adults.
Our niece and nephew love EOS lip balm and so does everyone we know from men to women and everyone in between.
This is especially perfect for people who have to brace cold weather. EOS is one of the top brands along with Burts and Bees.
Lash Serum
Perfect for beauty enthusiasts, women, teens.
Lash serums help people grow natural fuller lashes in a few weeks, it can even help eyebrows. The serum is applied daily. EVERY girl or woman would LOVE this. There’s a good one at Target by No 7 for $9.99 (not an affiliate link) but the ones below are really good as well and have a better applicator:
Make Up Brushes
Teens and anyone who wears make up
We still use MAC make up brushes given to us 13 years ago. If you buy quality ones, they’ll last forever. The top brush brands are MAC and Sigma but you can find good ones at every price point. Coastal Scents sells very cheap, but quality brushes made with synthetic and natural hair.
We have their Classic Blender Brush Natural, their Classic Blender Crease Brush Natural, and their Pro Blending Fluff Brush.
If you’re not sure what kind of brushes to get,we suggest an angled eyeliner brush, an eye shadow blending brush, a powder brush, or a blush brush. You can also get a whole set.
Mascara
Everyone who wears mascara including beauty enthusiasts.
Everyone who wears make up is always on the hunt for the best mascara.
While there are plenty of expensive options our personal favorite is Lash Princess False Lash Effects mascara by Essence. It’s under $5 yet it outperforms every designer brand mascara we’ve ever tried…and we’ve tried them all (See our full review of this mascara here).
Gift a good mascara to everyone you know who loves to wear it and they will LOVE you for it.
Beauty and Health Oils
Everyone from the health conscious to the beauty fanatic
There are some really great must have oils that do double duty as a healthy option to cook with AND a great beauty product. The key is to get unrefined cold pressed/cold processed oils.
While Coconut oil is a popular healthy baking oil, it also has the highest penetration rate into the hair shaft for moisturizing treatments.
Avocado oil is one of the most ideal oils for frying since it has a high smoke point which also makes it’s the best heat protectant for the hair.
Same goes for Castor oil, it has worked miracles on our skin and can also be used for a hair moisturizing treatment and in some cases help hair grow faster.
Make an amazing beauty serum by diluting Essential oils like Frankincense or Myrrh or Rosemary with any of the oils listed above. We use them for skincare, hair growth, cramps, or even sleep aid. Add a drop or two to baths, conditioner or hair treatments, or even to make homemade soaps or body scrubs. Here are the exact ones we buy.
Jouer Liquid Lip color
Perfect for Teens, adults who love shimmer and glitter!
If you know someone who enjoys non sticky, long lasting, shimmer lip color this is a must. Years ago a picture of a model wearing a metallic irridescent light pink peach lip color sent Pinterest in a frenzy. They finally tracked the source to a company called Jouer and the lip color was Papaye. We got Jouer Papaye at their black friday buy one get one sale online along with their Lip Topper gloss in the color Skinny Dip and we’ve been major fans ever since. Papaye is a long lasting, non sticky, light weight, peachy gold metallic, while their Lip Topper in Skinny Dip was a pale, long lasting, glitter metallic shimmer, you can wear alone or layer over glosses and lipsticks. While Papaye is beautiful we loved the Lip Topper even more since it not only looks gorgeous alone but makes any lipstick shimmer.
Sunless Tanner
Teens, beauty fanatics, and anyone that could use a little color without the skin damage.
Every online beauty guru swears by this sunless tanner. When our last tube of our favorite but discontinued sunless tanner runs out, we’ll be buying this one. If you know someone who’s looking to try a new tan look this is definitely the perfect gift.
Manicure Kit
Perfect for everyone: men, women, teens, and parents
Don’t think this is just for women.
Everyone needs a good small sharp pair of scissors to trim anything from eye brows, to nose hairs, to lip hairs and nails.
We’ve had ours for years and growing up found our Dad stealing it every once in a while and let’s not get started on tweezers and nail clippers.
This case is perfect for both men and women and has a good quality sharp scissors. It’s also highly rated on Amazon by both men and women.
Teeth Whitener
Good for Men, women, especially those entering the job market or dating scene.
If you know someone with a smile that could use a little boost get them teeth whitening products (make sure you know them well otherwise they could take it as an awkward hint).
We have been using Arm & Hammer Truely Radiant Booster. It’s a whitening gel you apply to your toothbrush on top of your toothpaste before you brush. Our teeth have gone up atleast two shades from using it. We buy it online.
For more stubborn stains you can buy Premier White 5 Minute Whitening Gel which is a favorite among many youtube beauty gurus.
You can find the gel at Bed Bath and Beyond in many sizes for $1.99 and up, pair it with a cheap Walmart mouth guard for under a dollar and you have a nice little gift that will transform their smile.
A little caution, always consult your Dentist before starting any treatment.
Nail Base Coat And Top Coat
Great for anyone interested in strengthening their nails or reduce nail polish chipping.
We got “>No Chips Ahead Top coat for a gift and couldn’t do without them..until we found a fast dry top coat at the Dollar Tree.
The base coat prolongs the wear of your nail polish, prevent chipping, and strengthen your nails allowing you to grow them. The top coat dries the nails super fast so there’s no more smudges.
Thanks to the Essie basecoat our Mom was able to grow out her nails and no longer relies on acrylic nails.
Our long natural nails are much stronger.
Nail Polish Rack
Great for teens or adults, everyone who has a collection of nail polishes.
Anyone who has a collection of nailpolishes needs this in their lives!!
No more digging in a crowded drawer or box barely using half of your colors because they’re hidden in the clutter. They’ll be able to see all of their bottles, nicely organized, and away from the heat and humidity of the bathroom.
If you live with someone you can make a DIY nail polish rack out of Dollar Store poster board and surprise them with it or buy one. They come in many sizes for both wall mounted and table top, some also include storage for nail polish remover and files etc.
We chose the DIY option thinking it would just be temporary because we wanted to fit a certain nook while still holding 100 bottles but we ended up keeping it and not buying one because we love it so much. You can view our DIY Nail Polish Rack No One Will Know Is DIY here.
A Good Hair Brush
Everyone with hair.
A good brush is something everyone needs and not enough people have.
We got our Conair Colorvibes hair brush 5 years ago at a Black Friday sale for free and have used it ever since. It was listed on Allure Magazine’s Best of Beauty List in 2015.
It’s the perfect brush for detangling and gets knots out like nobody’s business while also being gentle on your hair..and just look at the price!
Most of the hair and make up artists who have done our hair on set have used boar bristle brushes like this Mason Pearson All Boar Bristle Brush on Overstock because it’s made of natural animal bristles that distribute oil evenly smoothing out the hair for styling, improving dandruff and giving it shine. This brush is great for slicked back or smooth hair styles, not for volume
You can also buy a boar bristle mix brush. It may be a bit more expensive but they’ll have it forever.
Perfume and Cologne
Perfect for men, women, and teens.
We’ve been wearing a scent from Bath and Body Works that everyone loves called Moonlight Path since we were 16.
It’s sold as a body spray and lotion. We use the body spray everyday.
Chloe is another signature scent that’s AMAZING. It has a beautiful floral rose and jasmine scent that everyone goes nuts for and it’s actually a lot cheaper now than it used to be.
Cashmere Mist is a sophisticated Vanilla Sandalwood Musk scent that we often gift our big sister.:
The all time favorite men’s cologne is Fierce by Abercrombie. We don’t know a man or woman alive who doesn’t like that scent. Another classic we love that costs a lot less is Joop.
You can also get a box of 5 small perfumes or colognes, they usually sell them in Macy’s for $15-20. These can be good for stocking stuffers.
Body Spray Cologne
Perfect for men, teens, and young adults.
Who wants to wear their expensive cologne to go to class?
This is great for teens and college students or anyone that needs a cheaper alternative to cologne.
Axe body spray is great for guys and can be found at most drugstores and supermarkets. Bath n Body Works body splashes are great for girls.
Permanent Hair Removal System
Perfect for men and women
Give this to anyone who can’t stand shaving because it actually works and will save them a lot of time and money. Buy them an ipl painless hair removal system that will permanently remove their hair.
There are two different brands on the market that we’ve used that work. The Silk N Flash N Go system is good for light to medium skin with medium to dark hair and can also be used on all areas of the body.
The ME Chic system we recommend for darker skin colors and lighter hair colors but it is not recommended for sensitive areas like men’s face, jaws and lips, or genital areas.
Initially we used them once a week for 7 weeks then only had to use them once a month for up keep, but eventually after 6 months to a year it becomes permanent.
The only time you may have to use it again is after pregnancy or if you start taking certain hair growth vitamins.
It’s available on amazon.
Electric Shaver
Perfect manly gift
When our Father was complaining about getting knicks, cuts, and irritation from shaving he picked up our moms electric facial hair trimmer and loved it, so we’re getting him this for Christmas this year. This is also great for lazy men because they can do it anywhere, wet or dry and even in the car no shaving cream or water required.
You could go the Amazon route if you’re certain of the type you want to buy but we would personally purchase it from stores that have a good refund policy incase they want a different one or it breaks down.
13. Electronics

We’ve found it for up to half off at Flash and Black Friday sales on Amazon.

They also have the more powerful model Anker Powercore 5000mAh that can guarantee atleast 2 full cell phone charges.

External Hard drive
Perfect for everyone especially college students, parents, and entrepreneurs
Having a back up hard drive not only saves you from having to buy a new computer, but will save you from losing everything in case it crashes.
You can either back it up using an online service where you pay per year like idrive, back blaze, or sos. For more private documents you can purchase an external hard drive.
Western Digital (WD) is the most trusted and top brand in external hard drives. You can purchase hard drives in sizes ranging from 1TB to 3TB, if someone is big on videos or gaming we would recommend 2TB and 3TB. We have a 1 TB and we need more.
Once all of your pictures, videos, and documents are on the hard drive your computer will run like new again.

Apple and Samsung are most popular but these ear buds are a great value for the price and have a superior design making it nearly impossible to slip out of your ear. They also come with a microphone.
Record Player & Records
Men, women, teens, and even kids will love this!
This is a hot ticket item with everyone and will score you major points as the cool gift giver.
Records sound better and, in this digital age, give kids memorabilia of their favorite artists to hold on to. Plus browsing through used record stores with your friends and family is a lot of fun.
Both our niece and nephew have this suitcase record player, aptly named because it closes up like a suitcase so they take it to sleepovers and on vacation. You can find it on Amazon or Walmart. They range in price from $29.99 to $40.00 depending on the exterior print.
14. Home
Black Out Curtains
Perfect for babies, adults, parents, and college students or anyone who either lives in a noisy city, or has an unsteady sleep cycle.
Once we got these we don’t know how we ever did without them.
Not only do they help with blocking out light while you sleep but also reduce noise and block out heat and cold from windows. There’s a reason why every Vegas Hotel room has them.
The American Cancer Association says sleeping in a dark room without daylight or blue light reduces breast cancer risk by providing better quality sleep. With these you can prolong the quality of your sleep even after sunrise.
These are definitely a gift they will use forever and thank you for.

Good for everyone, especially environmentalists, 5 Senses-Taste Gift Plastic isn’t only bad for the environment but it’s often made with chemicals that are bad for our health. If you know an environmentalist or someone who has a phobia of BPA (rightfully so), they’d really enjoy stainless steel or glass straws. Make sure to get ones with silicone tips so that they don’t chip a tooth! If they drink a lot of Apple Cider Vinegar drinks get them glass instead since ACV has a corrosive effect on metal. Good for everyone, especially those with allergies, 5 Senses-Smell Gift Did you know a major contributing factor to cancer is dust and air pollutants? Protect your loved ones by getting them an air purifier. Air purifiers can take out 97% of bacteria, smoke, pet dander, and allergens from the air.

They come in super quiet desktop and portable sizes too. Below are some great ones to protect your loved ones in all sizes, portable, desktop, and standard. If you’d rather go for a more natural method get them a plant. On Nasa’s list of top plants that purify the air are orchids, English Ivy, Bamboo plants, and Aloe Vera. An Aloe Vera plant is a great option since it’s easy to maintain and you can use it on your skin and hair. English Ivy is perfect in bathrooms because it’s a mold buster, and bamboo grows well in low light. Everyone, especially men and athletes, 5 Senses-Smell. This spray works like an air purifier to clean the air in cars, homes, lockers, and closets. This is great for anyone including athletes. It’s way better than just covering smells up with Febreeze. They will be thankful for this. Perfect for parents, grandparents, moms, the health/image conscious, people looking to lose weight, family, boyfriend/girlfriend, and siblings Did you know one of the leading causes of cancer is the lack of cruciferous vegetables in the diet? We know people who have stopped taking their blood pressure pills because they started drinking healthy smoothies they made with Bullet Blenders. Bullet blenders are more powerful versions of household blenders that do a great job liquifying fruits and vegetables. They’re so much better than juicers because all of the nutrient dense stuff like the pulp is also turned into liquid. The two best ones on the market are Juice Ninja and NutriBullet but you can also find good deals on other brands. Given older adults sometimes have dental and health issues, this could be a lifesaving gift but it’s also great for busy moms (kids love smoothies too), and anyone interested in health and fitness. Their energy will go through the roof. Parents, grandparents, teens, adults, beauty enthusiasts, and the health conscious. Another easy way to make sure your loved ones get their nutrients is with vitamins. Not only are there some great and affordable multivitamins on the market but also supplements that can improve anything from bone health to even your skin. We personally love the GNC’s Women’s Ultra Mega Multivitamin and their Hair, Skin, and Nails Gummies, and GNC Mega Men Gummy Multivitamin for Energy, Metabolism Immune Support, Mixed Berry – 120 CountGNC also makes great gummy multi vitamins for Kids, and Teens. We gift them to our family every year…and of course buy some for ourselves. Just a little word of caution, always check with your doctor before taking any dietary supplements to make sure there are no issues especially if you’re currently taking any medication. What we do is take half the dosage. Perfect for adults, Parents, siblings, spouses, grandparents There are many health and emotional benefits to drinking tea. It can replace coffee, prevent cancer, aid in weightloss, stabilize hormones, and is the best remedy for a cold. If you use loose leaf tea you need something to keep the leaves out of your cup.They use this exact brand and model teapot to serve tea at an upscale cafe called The Larder in Beverly Hills and our Mother fell in love with it. It has a steel tea infuser inside that will give you a clean pour, pair this with an <br /> Perfect for health conscious, coffee enthusiast, parents, and grandparents. Many regular coffee makers contain plastic, that once heated, releases BPA ( a cancer causing carcinogen) into your coffee. Steel Percolators not only solve that problem but also make your coffee taste better. An added bonus is you don’t need a coffee filter. You can either get an electric one or an old fashioned stove top percolator. This is a great gift for the health conscious and coffee enthusiast. Tip: The electric percolators may have aluminum bases. Perfect for the health conscious We were trying to find a healthier alternative to pasta and stumbled on an as seen on tv item in Marshall’s called the Veggetti that turns zucchini into spirulized noodles and our lives have never been the same. We no longer eat regular pasta anymore. There are other spiralizers on the market but the Veggetti is a good cheap start that is worth every penny. If you decide you love zucchini noodles and want a pricier spiralizer you don’t have to keep twisting by hand like a jar you can always go to Target, Walmart, or any department store and pick one up. Great for couples, young adults, parents, anyone that hosts parties. Everyone especially men love this! Turn your watermelon or Pumpkin into the hit of your holiday gathering with this easy to install Keg tapping kit. Just install it into a hollowed out watermelon or pumpkin and fill with your drink of choice, it’s that simple to install. We’re already jealous of who you’re going to give it to. Perfect as a stocking stuffer or in a basket for everyone including tweens, teens, young adults, and adults of all ages. Parabens, aluminum, and talc found in deodorants can disrupt hormones and have been linked to health problems such as breast cancer and Alzheimers. Luckily they make some pretty good natural deodorants (and unfortunately some bad ones). The two best ones on the market are Native and AOS. You can buy Native through their website Nativecos.com and AOS on Amazon. We recommend atleast using these at night, right after a shower, or after shaving when your pores are open instead of your regular antiperspirant. Perfect for everyone including boyfriends, kids, teens, adults,teacher, co workers, and bosses. CHECK OUT OUR POST OF THE BEST GIFT BASKETS FOR EVERYONE ON YOUR LIST.
