Tis the season! Welcome to my first Holiday Gift Guide of 2020 – some of my favorite things under $30! While I will give Thanksgiving its respect, I know a lot of us have already started shopping or will soon for Christmas. I love giving gifts and finding something that is perfect for a particular person. I get a lot of joy out of it whether it’s big or small. However, I know it can be stressful for some, so I am hopeful that my holiday gift guides will be helpful for you.
I am starting off with a whole gift guide dedicated to lower priced items. All of these are some of my favorite things under $30. Most of these items are even under $15. I have and love all of these products, except two (Santa take notes). I know budgets might be tighter this year so I wanted to make sure there were quality items for very reasonable prices.
This Favorite Things Under $30 Gift Guide is great for many types of people, a girlfriend, coworker, sister etc. It also has some good stocking stuffers.
- Dr Jart+ Cryo Rubber Mask – This mask is perfect for colder weather. We all need some extra hydration during the winter and this one packs the punch. It makes a great gift because it’s a little more luxurious than a sheet mask and might be a little more than your loved one typically spends on themselves.
- Scrubee by Lush – Treat someone to this delicious honey smelling scrub in bee form. The Scrubee is a combination of ground almonds and coconut shells with softening honey, cocoa and shea butter in alternating exfoliating and moisturizing stripes for the smoothest skin. Lush makes yummy handmade, ethical and cruelty-free products.
- Laneige Lip Mask – Keep those kissers hydrated. Comes in a variety of flavors and is extra thick. Great for at night and for during the day too.
- Snoozies Slippers – Endless coziness in these. These are the best nonslip slippers. They come in all colors and designs. I am partial to my dogs because they make me smile.
- Zodiac Book – One of the items I don’t have, but I think it would make a great gift. While I don’t read my horoscope often or always identify with what it says, I do enjoy learning more about astrology. Find out what’s written in the stars.
- 52 Lists for Calm Journal – Raise your hand if you could use some more calm in your life? (insert endless girl with hand raised emojis). This would be a thoughtful gift for anyone, but especially someone who may be struggling extra.
- Fresh Soy Face Cleanser & Sugar Advanced Therapy Treatment Lip Balm Duo – Two of my holy grail products I will always buy. Fresh is a clean beauty brand that I have been using for years. This cleanser can even remove mascara and the lip balm is incredibly hydrating.
- Verb Energy Bars – Know anyone addicted to caffeine? These would make the best stocking stuffers. Perfect for on the go when you don’t have time to grab a coffee or for an afternoon pick me up. They have as much caffeine as a shot of espresso.
- The 5 Love Languages – Do anyone you know, who hasn’t read this, a favor and get it for them. Everyone could benefit from learning about love languages.
- Stars Above Pajama Set – Give me all the comfy sets! This brand from Target is unreal. Everything they make is so incredibly soft. I would never be disappointed with anything from them or another cozy outfit to lounge in.
- Slip Scrunchies – An Allure Best of Beauty winner in 2019, these silk scrunchies are gentle on hair. They are designed to avoid creases and prevent breakage.
- WoodWick Candle – I don’t always love candles as a gift because I feel like a lot of us have a lot of them. However, if it’s an extra beautiful jar, meaningful in some way or has a crackling wick then I think it’s an exception to the rule. Woodwick candles sound like a fireplace when lit and give off the hygge vibes. If you don’t know what that means check out this post.
- Alex & Ani Charm Bangle – I love the meaning behind these bracelets. Each charm has a special meaning with relationships to words like strength, luck or love. A perfect way to make a gift personal to someone special.
- Lululemon Bow Scrunchie – I will always be happy with a gift from Lululemon. This scrunchie comes in lots of colors with a cute little bow.
- Claw Clip Set – This is the second item I don’t have but they look beautiful. These clips are coming back in style and could be broken up into 3 separate gifts. I love the tortoiseshell type look.
- Lululemon Underwear – Okay, I realize this depends on your relationship with the recipient, but I promise these are the most comfortable chonies. They are a bit of a splurge, but so worth it. and what makes them a great gift. I have heard the mens are also extremely comfortable if you are shopping for your man.
- Opalhouse Diffuser – Such a pretty decor piece even when it’s not on. A great alternative for someone who doesn’t love candles.
- Opaline Brut Rose – Another great Trader Joe’s find. I tried this on a whim because I loved the bottle and was impressed. Not only is the bottle beautiful, but it’s also under $10 and tastes really good. A great festive gift.
That’s a wrap on this Favorite Things Under $30 gift guide. I hope you can find something great or get inspired as you shop for holiday gifts this year. I will be coming out with other guides this month including one specifically for men, gifts that give back, items that support small business, things for a homebody and more!
