Fail-proof gift ideas for anyone (and everyone) on your list
< FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM, TIKTOK OR PINTEREST >
The pre-holiday stress is real and when it comes to finding the right gift(s) for those on your list, it can certainly be very overwhelming. A few days ago, I got a text from a good friend who asked if I can suggest a few lists that will work for multiple people on her list; “it’s just way more efficient that way,” she wrote, “but they still need to be good and thoughtful gifts.” And so that conversation led me to write this post!
Scroll down to find a few of my picks that make great gifts for anyone and everyone on your list — no matter how well you know them. And yes, that includes your co-worker’s son, your husband’s manager’s wife, your neighbor’s daughter-in-law… and more.
100% Leather Valet Tray by Jeff Wan
An elegant and simple yet practical gift for both him and her, this 100% goatskin leather Valet Tray by NYC-based fashion brand Jeff Wan makes a great addition to any home or office space.
The tray also comes in black.
The Quintessential Journey Gift Set by Aerangis
Candles are always a good idea, especially when they are sustainable and clean. This gift set by Aerangis is a great one because it includes 3 mini candles — featuring the brand’s signature scents (and my favorite No. 1 Beginning scent — as well as a wick trimmer.
If your budget is limited, you can consider just getting one mini candle, although the set gives you a good discount.

Compression Socks by Ostrichpillow
A perfect gift for both men and women, the Bamboo Compression Socks by self-care brand Ostrichpillow from Spain is designed to keep your legs active even when you’re not moving. As many of us are still working from home, long hours of sitting naturally leads to inactivity and slower circulation.
I love that the socks are sustainably made of bamboo and recycled polyester, too.
The brand also has travel-friendly products that made great gifts as well.
Bian Stone Body Gua Sha Tool by Yina
While a lot of people thought gua sha facial tools are mostly for women, gua sha was originally mainly done on the body for everyone, both men and women. When my dad used to have really tight shoulders, for instance, my mom would use a ceramin spoon to do gua sha to help release tension.
I love this gua sha tool because it’s made of Bian stone, which has powerful healing properties.

James Shearling Home Slipper by Freda Salvador
These soft and cozy home slippers by Freda Salvador are the best winter gifts to give — you can get a pair of ivory and black for a couple or for you and your BFF!
Made in El Salvador, the slippers do good, too because a percentage of the profits are donated to a school located on the factory campus.

Non-toxic nail care products by sundays studio
You’re very wrong if you think nail care products are just for women! A good nourishing clear, base coat and a hydrating cuticle serum, for instance, would make great gifts to both men and women.
The polishes are 10-free and safe for pregnant women to use so the only hard choice would be which color(s) to pick from the wide range of beautiful scadavian-inspired hues.

Travel Soap Bag + Organic Soap by Elena Scarlata (available on pinkmoon.co)
This Travel Soap Bag is sustainably handmade in Sicily, Italy, and comes with an organic soap. The pouch makes transporting the soap stress-free and allows it to breathe, so it can dry out effectively.
Once the soap is used up, replace it with your own soap bars or use the pouch as a makeup or face mask pouch.

Kindly Restore by State of Kind
I personally am a big fan of this 100% natural and vegan overnight skincare product — and my husband is, too!
Kindly Restore is a multi-tasking sleep concentrate that is formulated to deeply nourish and hydrate your skin as you sleep. It also helps reduce the appearance of inflammation which is a skin concern both my husband and I have.
