As a mom, I’ve been given plenty of gifts over the years. But it can be tricky to find the perfect gifts for the women in your life. This gift guide has holiday gifts for moms, sisters, aunts, wives, BFFs, and every other woman on your list. While you’re at it, don’t forget to get a few for yourself too!
Best Gifts for Women
The best gifts are ones she’ll use and love. I don’t stay on top of all the trending gifts, but I’ve discovered some tried and true presents over the years. Christmas gift ideas don’t have to be hard or complicated. Often it’s the simple things, like handmade items or DIY beauty gifts that are the most treasured.
While I love making DIY products to give out, it’s also nice to buy loved ones’ other thoughtful gifts too. And of course, they have to be as natural and healthy as possible! That leaves out gadgets like Bluetooth AirPods or chemical-filled beauty products. Thankfully there are still plenty of quality gifts I can feel good about giving to friends and loved ones!
Christmas Gifts For Her
The list below contains a lot of practical gifts that I’ve appreciated getting over the years. Coffee makers and blankets may not be sexy, but I’ve really enjoyed getting and using them. You’ll also find items to pamper her and have some fun (like a massage or art supplies). Some of the gifts are more of a splurge (ahem… husbands), but there are some cheaper options too.
Plus we can’t forget the stocking stuffers! I’ve included plenty of ideas for those below. With nearly 50 ideas, there’s sure to be something for every woman on your list.
Skincare and Beauty
- Queen of the Thrones – Quality castor oil for all things beauty and wellness.
- Purity Woods Dream Cream – Let mom pamper her face with this divine cream. From 11/21 to 12/5 save an additional $5 off each bottle of dream cream, up to 38% off!
- Alitura Clay Mask – Or really anything from this brand. I love the clean ingredients and I really feel like I’m pampering my skin. Their clay mask features nutrient-dense ingredients that exfoliate dead skin, reduce pore openings, stimulate blood flow, and encourage new skin cell growth.
Food and Drink
- Organifi -These green juices boost energy all while tasting delicious. Gift her their new apple crisp flavor.
- Everbella – Liquid collagen that tastes like caramel. Use it on everything from homemade pancakes to ice cream… or eat it by the spoonful.
- Real Plans Membership – My biggest time saver – this plans all of my meals and shopping lists and can handle allergies, bulk prep day, and more.
- Hydro Flask Water Bottle – The water bottle I use that keeps water cool (or hot) for days.
- Purity Coffee – If you’re looking for a perfect cup of joe, look no further. Team this up with a coffee maker and you have a perfect gift set for any mom, wife, or best friend.
- Dry Farm Wines – If she doesn’t like coffee, maybe wine is the way to her heart. I can’t recommend their natural wines enough. They’re keto, paleo-friendly, sugar-free, lower alcohol, and organic. Don’t forget to throw in some wine glasses.
- Dream – Healthy hot cocoa for sleep that also comes in a white chocolate peppermint flavor. Improves sleep and helps you wake up refreshed.
- Sip Herbals – Great replacement for coffee if you’re searching for something different!
- Organic Tea Subscription Box – Give her the gift that keeps on giving. Choose from green tea, herbal teas, black teas, and more in this monthly tea subscription from Pique.
- Windowsill Garden Kit – She can grow organic herbs or flowers, even in a small space. This windowsill kit includes seeds and a beautiful planter. Hamama is also a great option for a growing kit.
Kitchen Essentials
- Caraway Bakeware or Cookware – I have the full cookware set from Caraway as well as some of their bakeware. These are non-toxic pots and pans that have been tested safe, with fun colors to match your kitchen colors.
- Le Creuset – Incredible (but pricey) cookware. I’ve been collecting a few pieces over the years and resisting the urge to buy them all!
- French Press Coffee Maker – Make wonderful coffee with this classic method that preserves coffee’s aromatic oils. (And see above for the perfect coffee to use with this.)
- Instant Pot – Revolutionize dinner! This electric pressure cooker makes roasts in about an hour and turns tough cuts of meat into deliciously tender meals. Plus it can cook beans, rice, and so much more in a fraction of the time. There’s even an option to make your own yogurt.
- Air Fryer – These are wildly popular now because of how fast they can cook a meal (without making it mushy). Most air fryers have toxic non-stick coatings inside, but not this one.
- Always Pan – This is your all-in-one pan that makes cooking and cleanup a breeze. It comes in different colors and brings some fun into the kitchen!
- Yogurt Maker – Homemade yogurt tastes so much better than store-bought and is simple to make.
- Ice Cream Maker – Make any kind of ice cream: dairy-free, sugar-free, etc.
- Glass Electric Tea Kettle – Make tea in seconds with this glass electric tea kettle.
General Wellness
- LeelaQ – Harness the power of quantum energy for better health.
- Amazon Gift Card – Need I say more?
- Shiatsu Massage Pillow – Seriously rivals an actual massage for half the price.
- Wake-up Light Gentle Alarm Clock – Wake up gently to gradual light and sound. Help her get up on the right side of the bed!
- Himalayan Salt Lamp – These beautiful lamps have a soothing, warm, orange glow at night that really adds to the home decor. I like this one because it’s unique and pretty to look at.
- Blue Blocker Glasses – I wear these after dark for better sleep (some studies show avoiding blue light after dark helps melatonin levels). There are some fun colors and patterns to play with.
- 10,000 Lux Light – Feel blue in the winter? I use this super-bright light for self-care to keep my cortisol levels healthy.
- HigherDOSE Sauna Blanket – I’ve shared many times how sauna use can impact our health. If you don’t have the space for a full sauna, these sauna blankets are an easy and great option. BON CHARGE also has a really good sauna blanket.
Relax and Unwind
- Grown-up Coloring Book and Markers – Coloring isn’t for kids anymore and studies show it may reduce stress levels. Try a “grown-up coloring book.”
- Music – I love to fill our house with Christmas music this time of the year. Whether it’s on while we decorate or when we’re opening presents, it’s a must-have for our family.
- A good book – Just off the top of my head… maybe The Wellness Mama 5-Step Lifestyle Detox or The Wellness Mama Cookbook? ? Okay, I’m biased, but it’s a great way to have all of the best recipes and health hacks on the site at your fingertips. I also put this post on my podcast guests’ most recommended books.
- Blanket – I like this GOTS-certified organic cotton throw blanket. Winter is a time when I find myself curled up with a book and a cup of tea, and a good blanket is necessary during these colder months.
- Journal – Journaling has been such a great way for me to organize my thoughts for the day. These gorgeous lined journals come in plenty of colors for her to write down her thoughts and create.
- Knitting Kit – Does she love trying new hobbies? Get her a learn-to-knit kit, complete with yarn, knitting needles, and a how-to-knit book.
- Art Supplies – I’m a big fan of painting and drawing and love to do it with my kids. Here’s an acrylic art painting set, or you can get this watercolor paint set that comes in a gorgeous tin.
- Foot massager – This wooden foot roller massager is an affordable and easy way to get a foot massage.
- Cork Yoga Mat – One of my must-haves for working out.
Clothing and Accessories
- Fabletics Leggings – I love wearing a pair of cozy leggings at home, plus they’re great for working out in (see the yoga mat above).
- Cozy Clothes – If leggings aren’t her thing, then maybe some cozy loungewear or sweats are? Or maybe she’d prefer a long sleeved cashmere sweater or a cardigan? Beat fast fashion and get quality second-hand clothing from ThredUp. Or buy new from an eco-friendly sustainable clothing brand.
- Rose Gold Stud Earrings or these jade stud earrings make a great gift. Get her a jewelry box to store them in too!
- Tote Bag – These stylish reusable canvas tote bags are great for shopping, on the beach, or as a carry-on bag. Or make your own from a repurposed T-shirt!
- Crossbody Bag – This small canvas crossbody bag is perfect for tweens, teens, and older. There are tons of designs to choose from and it has zippered compartments to keep things organized.
Just Because
- Gift Box – This isn’t a gift in itself, but this reusable gift box is an elegant way to package small gifts. She can keep it for storage, or re-gift it.
- Keepsake Book – This story prompt program sends one thought-provoking question to mom or grandma every week for a year via email. At the end of a year, or whenever they feel ready, they will compile all their stories into a beautiful keepsake book. This personalized gift is also great for last-minute because it doesn’t require shipping!
- Essential Oil Diffuser – There are some really affordable diffusers that make a unique gift. Don’t forget a few essential oils to go with it! Plant Therapy also has some nice essential oil gift sets for the holiday season.
Stocking Stuffer Ideas For Her
- Annmarie Gianni Skincare – This trial pack is one of my favorite stocking stuffers for teenagers, friends, and anyone in between. I use the facial cleanser every morning, followed by their facial serum.
- Just Thrive – Our family loves their probiotics and probiotic gummies – use code wellnessmama15 for a discount.
- Wellnesse – My personal care line has everything from shampoo to hand sanitizer to toothpaste! And have you seen the new cinnamint toothpaste?
- Vibrant Blue Oils – There are plenty of great essential oils out there, but Vibrant Blue’s parasympathetic blend is unique. Just smelling it helps you shift into parasympathetic mode and a more relaxed state. The holidays can come with their own stress so help her chill out and enjoy the day!
- Plant Therapy has some amazing lotions, body butters, and essential oils! They create everything with high quality essential oils and are one of the most transparent brands I know.
- Spring + Mulberry – Delicious chocolate bars sweetened only with dates. These come in a variety of amazing flavors like lavender rose and mango chili.
- Pique Tea – So many great tea options from Pique. We’ve had the founder on the podcast and are impressed with the level of purity and testing they have in place for their teas. These are my favorite teas to have on hand.
- Toups Organics – They have an incredible line of clean cosmetics, lotions, and even a baking-soda free deodorant for sensitive types.
- Magnesium Oil – Spray on for relaxation, detox support, and even deodorant. I also love this magnesium lotion (two birds with one stone!).
- Massage – Sometimes it’s also nice to get a massage from a professional. She’ll love a gift certificate for a local massage therapist!
- Fontana Candles – I really like these non-toxic candles as they don’t have any petroleum byproducts, stabilizers, fragrance oils, or harmful dyes. You can also get non-toxic wax melts, bath salts, lip balm, and more from Fontana.
