61 Best Gifts for Women That’ll Arrive Before Christmas

Shopping for a wellness-minded best friend who needs a moment, or a coworker you don’t know super well? A guided journal like this one is a meaningful present that provides prompts to help her create some space for gratitude and self-care. It’s designed for the person who doesn’t have a ton of time in their day or who finds journaling intimidating. In minutes she can fill out short lists that finish such bite-size prompts as “What would make today great?” and “Highlights of the day.” It’ll also be to their doorstep in no time if you’re an Amazon Prime member.

It’s made the rounds on TikTok thanks to the adorable print, and this gift set includes three zippered organizational bags for her makeup, toiletries, or any other supplies. Each quilted pouch is patterned with dainty bows, cherries, or flowers. It’s a sweet gift for any teen girl who totes cosmetics in her bookbag.

We’ve been testing the best LED masks for over a year now since they’re just about the biggest craze in skin care. We were dubious of how expensive they are too, but our reviewers (and the dermatologists we spoke to) confirm that the benefits are legit, and the HigherDose LED red light therapy mask has gotten the highest marks from Glamour senior commerce editor Jenifer Calle. “While it is pricey, I found that the HigherDose LED Red Light Therapy Face Mask is actually worth it,” she says in her review. “I saw results after only two weeks of use—a visibly brighter complexion.”

Pavoi is one of the most affordable jewelry brands on the market because of its chic but cheap styles (and now you can shop them on Amazon). These versatile huggie hoops are perpetually popular with our readers. They look like Mejuri dupes and are, wonderfully, under $15.

If she (like Rihanna, the Hadids, and virtually every other celeb) can’t get enough of Uggs, go for these best-selling plush slippers—they look equally cute with leggings or sweats.

The Owala has risen to the top for the most popular water bottle you can gift this holiday season—it comes in plenty of pretty colors, keeps her drinks cold for hours, and can be sipped either via straw or mouth. Plus, it locks in place (no leaks in her bag!) with a feature that doubles as an easy-carry handle.

La Chatelaine is a favorite among Glamour editors (and Oprah, who put it on her Favorite Things list one Christmas), because of its ease and high impact. The packaging and fragrances feel high-end, but this is a gift you can buy on Amazon for under $30. (So yes, it makes a great gift for daughters, especially if you waited until the last minute, since it ships quick.)

If they’re a coffee lover they’ll appreciate this subscription that lets them try freshly roasted beans from around the world. Choose a 3-, 6-, or 12-month subscription for your giftee and they’ll receive bags from places like Columbia, Brazil, Kenya, and more. Plus, each order includes a postcard explaining the flavor with brewing tips.

Hunting for an extremely last-minute gift that doesn’t scream “I didn’t know what to get you”? We got you. This subscription to MasterClass gives her access to hundreds of fun virtual lessons of her choosing from icons like Martha Stewart, RuPaul, Joanna Gaines, and Mindy Kaling. Best of all, you can buy and email it to her within minutes of purchase—no shipping necessary.

These cute, frilly slippers made with an ultra-comfortable memory-foam sole will transform her into a 1940s film starlet padding around her movie trailer. Sure, she probably already has a pair of slippers, but these are especially great for the ’gram, and they’re a terrific last-minute gift. “I treated myself to these recently, and they”re the most delightful slippers I ever did see,” says Glamour commerce director Brie Schwartz. “Trust me, your wife wants a pair.”

Add a jolt of energy to her morning with a set of TikTok-trending ice globes. The glass globes are weighted with blue liquid and get stored in the fridge or freezer. When rolled along the face, they can decrease puffiness, bring down redness in the skin, and assist with lymphatic drainage. They also just feel good for any worn-out person—like a mini massage that only takes minutes—making it a grab gift for truly any woman.

One of our favorite last-minute gift ideas, TikTok’s viral Kitsch heatless curling set is adored by Glamour editors and readers alike. Your giftee can wrap her damp hair around the satin headband, secure the ends with scrunchies, and let her strands dry into soft waves. “I like my heatless curlers because the fabric feels luxe, the set is easy to use and comfortable to wear, and it actually does curl my hair and reduce frizz—plus, it’s packable,” says Glamour reader Katherine Howell-Kiser, a graphic designer. And the cute candy-cane spin makes this beauty gift even more special.

Whether she lives alone or with a house full of kids, this robot vacuum can help keep her space clean and dust-free—all without her having to touch it. (And it happens to be one of the trendiest gifts this year). The independent operator can be scheduled via phone, and it’s a godsend for anyone who lives with furry pets. Want to go the cordless route? The Dyson V8 stick vacuum is lightweight, powerful, can be mounted on the wall, and lasts for up to 40 minutes on a charge.

Keep the flame going (both literally and figuratively) with this custom-printed matchbox from Etsy. It’s personalized with two initials and a year, making it a perfect anniversary gift—especially if your favorite woman is a candle person.

Shopping for a woman who is incredibly picky—who jokes that she’d rather you just give her money? Message received. If you’re running out of time, you can also go the e-gift card route (the fastest delivery of them all).

“An Aura digital frame was one of the best gifts I’ve given my mom,” Glamour commerce editor Malia Griggs says. “It sits on her piano, and I’m able to upload photos to it via its app, so even though I live far away, I can still surprise my parents with moments from my life without them having to do a thing.” It’s also a fab gift for long-distance couples.

Inside the pages of our brand-new book find 85 years of fashion, celebrity, and politics. It’s a beautiful celebration of boundary-breaking women over the decades—and it looks glamorous on any coffee table.

One of the best gifts for your BFF or your wife, we’re shocked that this Kate Spade bracelet will ensure that she always has a reminder of how much you appreciate her heart of gold thanks to the inscription on the inside.

If your Secret Santa is Little Miss Organized, help her get ahead on planning in the new year with this pretty appointment notebook from one of our favorite brands. We love that while it’s under $20, it still looks and feels way more expensive, making it a great gift for your Secret Santa if you’re working with a price cap.

The best gifts are often the most meaningful, and there’s nothing more so than your affection spelled out. Fill the pages of this blank book with your story—how you met, your favorite memories together, and what you love most about her. It’s a lovely anniversary gift. (Need more structure? This $8 version has fill-in prompts to get your creative juices flowing.)

Spare her the unnerving task of having to untangle all of her necklaces whenever she travels. If she’s a frequent flyer, she’ll need a place to store her baubles, and this cute monogrammed jewelry box makes the perfect personalized gift.

While diamonds get all the praise, I happen to think that bows are a girl’s best friend, and these delicate earrings are the perfect way to help her get a taste of the jewelry trend. “My Secret Santa knows these are on my list,” says Schwartz.

At the end of a long day or a tough workout, she can lie on this mat, which is loaded with prickly points meant to target and release tension from acupressure points along her body.

One Glamour reviewer calls this sex toy her “forever standout” for how it massages the G-spot and clitoris. Your special someone can use the vibrator solo or with a partner (you, perhaps?). Either way, she’s in for a good time.

Shopping for the woman who seems to practically have everything already? Slip this neck massager (a favorite gift among Glamour readers) into her pile or birthday gifts. It drapes around her neck for hands-free use, massages her sore spots, and is heated. It’s just what anyone who needs some self-care deserves (and is much cheaper than a one-time-use gift card to the spa).

An especially good gift for new moms who really need their beauty sleep, a high-quality silk pillowcase can improve skin and hair, plus it just feels great—and for around $20 a pop on Amazon, you don’t have to send your credit card running for the hills. This washable silver option is beloved by Glamour editors, but there are 14 other colors to choose from if you want to match your gift to her bedroom decor.

The person who permanently runs out of charge—well, on their phone or iPad anyway—actually needs this charger. This Anker charger can cleverly turn into a stand so she can FaceTime or read comfortably while it wirelessly and magnetically charges. It’s small enough to fit in her pocket or purse and can provide up to 17 hours of extended use. “It might not be the sexiest gift, but trust me, it’s the most useful. I love that I can just stick it on my phone without carrying around an extra cord, and it charges fast. I’m buying this for all of my forgetful loved ones as a safety precaution so they never run out of juice,” says Schwartz.

If she swears by her horoscope, she’ll love wearing her sign on her, er, chest. This pretty necklace is a fab gift under $25 (it looks a lot more expensive than it is), and personalized pendant jewelry is having a real moment among astrology enthusiasts. She can also layer it with her other beautiful baubles, and you can get it with two-day Prime shipping.

She can bid farewell to cold feet (in the literal sense) with this foot massager, which deeply kneads tired soles. Did we mention it’s heated for some extra relief? If she’s always on her feet (looking at you moms), this one’s for her.

You can never go wrong with a personalized gift, especially one as cute (and cheap) as this monogrammed journal. Adorned with a floral cover, a contrasting ribbon, and lined pages, this is a perfect stocking stuffer or little token of appreciation for a coworker or friend.

Though you probably can’t give her the gift of a better night’s sleep, a gentler wake-up is the next best thing. This sunrise alarm clock will help her rise with the sun and without glaring beeps. It functions as a night light, too, and has a range of colored lights.

A fab gift for your best friend, if their BFF is, in fact, their dog (or cat, or…lizard), this Etsy shop will create the cutest embroidered rendering of their ’lil face. All you have to do is some IG sleuthing for the best pic, then share it, and you’ll have the most unique personalized present that they’ll cherish.

Grace her coffee table with this gorgeous book filled with iconic cinematic fashion moments and their histories—like the story behind Audrey Hepburn’s chic LBD in Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Meryl Streep’s looks from The Devil Wears Prada.

Our Place’s viral Always Pan is a modern-day kitchen staple, combining a pan, a pot, and a steamer into one compact body. If she’s the one responsible for washing up after, it also cleans like an absolute dream so she won’t have to worry about spending hours soaking it after she cooks.

If she already owns a stainless steel Yeti tumbler for her car cup holder, she knows the brand’s powers in retaining heat or cold for hours—and will get much use out of this smaller size, which is ideal for holding steaming hot cider or acting as a wine glass. As a thoughtful touch, you can get the cup customized with her name or monogram when you buy through Yeti’s website. If she’s a soccer mom who likes to have a glass of…something on the sidelines or a gal who loves a picnic, she’ll appreciate this popular gift.

One of our all-time favorite under-$25 gifts to give, this cute decorative monogrammed mug is great for any woman, whether she’s in her 20s or 60s. It’s an especially safe choice if you’re shopping for your boss or coworker whom you don’t know a ton about…besides their first initial, of course. “Drinking coffee out of this mug just makes me feel instantly more festive,” says Glamour commerce director Brie Schwartz. “It’s a rare find that’s equal parts useful, special, and (relatively) cheap.”

Forget phones. This retro instant camera captures memories right on the spot—no editing needed. We love giving this to college students since it makes decorating their dorm-room walls easy, but it’s also fun for adults. “I had one of these out on the table at my birthday party, and it was a huge hit,” says Schwartz. “Everyone got a souvenir to take home at the end of the night.”

A quarter of a century since her passing, Carolyn Bessette Kennedy remains an endless source of sartorial inspiration for minimalists and cool girls. This new coffee table book explores her unique fashion POV—and provides a blueprint for figuring out one’s own personal style too.

If she’s the consummate host, this record player with vintage vibes will help her set the mood every time she entertains. “It’s what I’m personally asking Santa for,” says Schwartz. Plus, the beauty of this gift is that the next time her birthday rolls around, you’ll know exactly what to get her (a new record, of course).

A luxury gift, for sure. We know it’s a splurge, but Glamour editors almost universally agree that this popular styling tool, which effortlessly acts as a curling iron and hair straightener, is absolutely worth it (just read our review). It’s basically like giving her endless trips to the salon.

The beauty of this perfume is that the smell varies on everyone–it’s kind of like your very own mood ring. “I got a whiff of on it a very glamorous friend and I instantly fell in love,” says Schwartz. “It smells different on me, but I still love it.” There’s also currently free expedited shipping if you spend over $70 at Glossier.

“Our beauty editor first turned me onto Rare Beauty, from Selena Gomez, after she and the Glamour team put the highlighter to the test on different skin tones, and I’m as enamored as she is now,” says Schwartz. “I’m really bad at doing my own makeup, despite growing up in a hair salon, so what I love about this is how foolproof it is to look a little bit more radiant. Whether you’re shopping for a teen or a woman in her 40s like me, she’ll appreciate a little piece of this buzzy brand.”

If her bag is ludicrously capacious, and she’s always rooting around to find her keys, or if she works in an office or dorm that requires a badge entry, this cute wristlet comes with two zippered pouches that’ll help her stay organized. It’ll clip to the outside of her purse, gym duffel, you name it, or she could, as the same suggests, wear it around her wrist.

If she exudes quiet luxury (or would just like to), this classic bag from one of our favorite designer brands will go with absolutely any outfit, and while it’s still a splurge, we’ve never seen it for this much off before. We love that the straps are adjustable and it’s large enough to hold a novel (truly, something worth considering).

Why settle on one Sunday Riley bestseller for your favorite woman when you can treat her to them all? This already discounted set is on even deeper sale for Black Friday, giving you the most bang for your skin-saving buck. (Plus, you can break the set apart as stocking stuffers or little treats for everyone on your list.)

This water flosser levels up her oral hygiene, is fun to use, and is totally cordless so she can travel with it, and trust us: She wants one. It’s one of the most requested gifts this year.

Glamour beauty editors are massive fans of Korean skin-care brand Tatcha’s gentle, plumping products. This starter kit gives her access of brand’s bestsellers, including our favorite hype-worthy Dewy Skin Cream, Essence, and Silk Serum.

Adidas Sambas are the It girl sneaker (celebs like Anne Hathaway, Sophie Turner, and Jennifer Lawrence would agree). They’re sporty and casual enough to pair with jeans yet dressy enough to wear with a slip skirt. Gift the trainers to the woman who likes to stay current with trends. (Another popular pick? The Puma Speedcat.)

If she complains of dry hair, or would appreciate an upgrade from her drugstore bottles, she’ll get good use out of this gift set of cult-favorite hair-care brand Olaplex’s bestsellers. The festive box features travel sizes of its reparative shampoo, conditioner, hair oil, and No. 3 hair mask (a go-to for Emma Stone).

This gorgeous satin robe has romantic Old Hollywood vibes with its flowing cut and feather-trimmed sleeves—a perfectly appropriate gift for the wife or girlfriend worthy of a throne (or a vanity, at any rate).

She probably won’t think to ask for a bidet, but by god will she thank you (for years) once she’s experienced the pleasure of a heated toilet seat on a cold day—one that slowly closes so there’s no slamming in the middle of the night, cleans her booty with warm water, and has a built-in night light.

A thoughtful, romantic gift idea for the wife or girlfriend is this set of scratch-off cards that feature ideas for date night. It’s an easy Amazon gift idea for women that ships quickly and promises memory making to come.

An enduring gift idea that checks the box for every type of woman in your life, from girlfriend to grandmother, is a cashmere sweater. This crewneck is luxuriously soft, warm, and—as one of our editors says, “divine.” If you order fast, it’s still eligible for free shipping on Nordstrom, and it’ll arrive in time for Christmas.

We named the Apple Watch Series 10 one of the best wellness products of 2024—it’s a quality-of-life upgrade for the busy woman (and the lightest, sleekest Apple Watch yet). It’ll organize everything for her, from phone calls to workouts to sleep, and has some seriously impressive features like advanced menstrual cycle tracking and water temperature sensing. Its battery also lasts for days.

This gift is totally me—er, her—espresso. If the caffeinated cocktail is her drink of choice (or if she’s a Sabrina Carpenter fan), all she has to do is add water and liquor to this premade mix and she’ll have one in the comfort of her kitchen, or she can make it a mocktail. Cheers!

Though it looks like a string of pearls, this gorgeous gadget is actually a charging cord for her phone. It’s such a pretty, unexpected addition to her desk or nightstand. Necessary? No. Joyful? Absolutely. It’ll also deliver in days.

Is she still sleeping in a T-shirt from college? Listen, that has its place, but throw these beautiful silky PJs into the mix for the nights when she wants to feel decidedly more regal. They’re also quite cooling, should she sleep hot. (To make it a complete set, pair the shirt with the matching pants, both of which should arrive by Christmas if you order now.)

“I suffered from perpetually cold hands during winter until a friend gave me rechargeable hand warmers like these,” says Griggs. Each patterned, pebble-size device slips into a pocket so she can hold them while chilling (literally) outside. Your loved one can choose between three temperature settings and each warmer stays hot for up to six blissful hours.

A good brush cleaner extends the life of her cosmetic tools, and this one is all the rage on TikTok. Each of her brushes fits into the handle, which then spins it at a high frequency in water to give it a thorough wash. It’s an unexpectedly useful present for the person who values taking care of her products.

If she has trouble sleeping (who doesn’t?), this top-selling weighted fleece sleep mask is designed to function like a soothing hug that blocks the light and alleviates bedtime anxiety.

This gift comes personalized with a scent to match the day she was born, plus an inscription about her astrological sign, personality, and best attributes. It’s one of our favorite bespoke presents that, believe it or not, you can get with Prime one-day shipping if you order from Amazon.
