The Woman's Gift Guide is, of course, the easiest guide for me to write each year. It is comprised entirely of products that I either already have and adore, or the Good Stuff that I really, really, really want. 

You’ll find options starting at just eighteen bucks, so there’s something for every budget here. Some of these items are offered in our online markeplace, and if not we’ve included links to purchase. In some cases, we may earn a commission for the referral, but the price is always the same for you.

Thank you for supporting our curated marketplace as well we the brands we love! (Our Amazon storefront has even more ideas).

8. Curated Seafood Box

I really want Daylon to get this for me (someone tell him!).

Seafood is so healthy, but it can also be contaminated with a range of toxins; Seatopia is the solution! $225

This is the most powerful red light device we've found for anti-aging (it offers the highest irradiance at ≈140 mW/cm²). I am really busy, and need the biggest bang for my buck since I can't use a red light every day—I use this 3-4 days a week (for 12 minutes a session. $369 (on sale)

13. All Day Age-Delay Emulsion

I'm completely hooked on this bouncy, anti-aging daytime moisturizer with bakuchiol, carnosine, spirulina, and postbiotics. I have been using it every day for months, and you barely need more than a pea-size to cover your entire face so it last forever (I put it on between vitamin C and sunscreen). $125

Buy from Marie Veronique
13. All Day Age-Delay Emulsion

14. Glass Air-Tight Container Set

I'm finally replacing my OXO bins with these stackable, airtight glass storage bins for my pantry. Is the complimentary stainless scoop the best part, or what? $265.50 (on sale)

18. Organic Fleece Waffle Sweatpants

When I was home in Vermont recently, my friend Zoe walked up and down the big hill to my parents' house in these many times a day, and she told me they felt like slippers on her feet.
