For Peak Hydration

1. Stanley Quencher Tumbler

Stanley

Everyone needs water. True. All water bottles are created equal. False. And the Stanley Quencher tumbler can prove it. The cult-favorite, stainless steel and dishwasher-friendly tumbler is travel-friendly, holding up to 40 fluid ounces of your favorite beverage thanks to its double-walled vacuum insulation that keeps drinks cold for up to two days or hot for up to seven hours. Basically, your coffee can stay piping hot and your ice can keep from melting all day long. Plus, it’s designed to fit in your car’s cupholder by incorporating a wide shape at the top that narrows at the base of the cup. It also comes with a screw-on lid that can be used in three resting positions, as demonstrated in this TikTok. Oh, and let’s not forget to mention the unmatched comfort grips on this baby. Thoughtful and functional in its design? Your current water bottle could never. Hurry up and snag one to gift now because the Stanley Quencher tumblers nearly always sell out, especially when they come in dreamy, muted hues like this Magnolia collection.

3. Brightland Awake Olive Oil

Brightland

This best-selling olive oil from Brightland is made from Arbequina olives harvested in November 2022 from small family farms located in California’s central coast. Within 90-minutes of harvest, the olives are cold-pressed and the result is a fresh and flavorful bottle of Awake. Whether you have homemade soup on the stove or grandma’s pasta recipe at the ready, this particular olive oil is suitable and safe to use for roasting or sauteing. The extra virgin olive oil has a robust and bold flavor profile that’ll brighten up your dishes with hints of nutty, peppery and buttery goodness. Mike was one of many reviewers who was astonished by the quality and taste of Brightland’s selections. “I love olive oil, but like a lot of folks, I suspect, I’ve never been exposed to artisan oils. These oils are delicious. I never thought to put olive oil on my eggs but here we are. I tried one of the recipes—I modified just a bit on the tomatoes [and] added olives all on a bed of spinach. The packaging and presentation are first rate. I’ve seen other reviews talk about the price. I agree it is a bit on the high side, but perhaps it will go down over time.” He suggests trying the Pizza oil ($32) next. Bring on the fried eggs, crispy potatoes and roasted veggies, courtesy of Brightland’s Awake.

GAP

Sick of seeing the man in your life in the same old workout clothes? Gift him this classic sweater, for a look you can both get on board with—in fact, we’re almost positive you’ll want to steal this and wear yourself every chance you can get. “My son bought one of these sweatshirts when he was in San Francisco with his aunts a couple of years ago,” writes one reviewer. “He wears it constantly. It has continued to be his favorited sweatshirt because even after all the times he’s worn and washed it, it remains to be the softest and coziest sweatshirt that has kept its shape and integrity. A very well-made sweatshirt. So, I bought him two more and surprised him for his birthday. He smiled huge!” There’s a reason for that next-to-none comfortable fit, so allow us to break it down. It is made of a cozy terry knit, so it's as comfy his 10-year-old sweats, and is both machine-washable and dryer safe.

It’s made with a water-repellent material and features an exterior zippered pocket and roomy interior compartment that can feature your essentials the next time you hit the trails. “This belt bag has so much space,” raves one lululemon reviewer. “That I normally store in it is my phone (it’s an iPhone 13, so it’s pretty big—like all phones these days), my lip gloss, my various cards and some hair ties, and there is still enough room for [about] three more phones, another couple of lip glosses, cards and [around] 20 more hair ties—and that’s just the main compartment!

But I thought it was a minimal risk, pricewise, to just get this sampler kit. These little bottles lasted a LOT longer than I thought they would, and in that time (six weeks maybe) my 56-year-old dry, eczema-prone, rosacea-prone face was legitimately transformed. My favorite product is the lactic acid (Good Genes). I have no idea how it works, but together with the CEO brightening serum and Luna night-time oil, I am telling you my face has cleared up and looks bright, fresh, and healthy.” If you’re new to Sunday Riley’s products like O’Connor or want to snag pricey luxe beauty products at a discount, this box sampler is the way to go.

It’s no secret Anthropologie has some of the best candles around.

This gorgeous vintage wallpaper-inspired tin candle comes in a swoon-worthy pomegranate cider scent with notes of crisp apple cider, mulling spices, sweet peach and a velvety mix of praline, santal and musk. It has a 15-hour burn time that’ll feel like the coziest addition for your coffee table, nightstand or bathtub. Here’s a hot tip form the Anthropologie experts: If you want your candle to burn at a full, even pool and avoid a wax buildup around the glass, make sure you allow your candle to burn until the wax pool melts all the way to the edge. Apparently, candle’s wax has a memory that prevents and allows it to burn to how it’s treated on the first light.

From the uber-popular chef and food journalist, Molly Baz, comes New York Times bestseller Cook This Book, a modern guide to creative cooking.

In true Baz style, the recipes and layouts are easy to follow, engaging, amusing and aesthetically pleasing enough to display on your kitchen countertop. It just might put your other cookbooks to shame, like it did to one Amazon reviewer. “This is the first cookbook that I want to cook my way through. (I probably own a hundred cookbooks so that is saying something). I have made about half a dozen dishes so far and they have all been very tasty and come out looking fairly like the pictures in the book. So far, our favorite dish is the swaddled chicken thighs which are so good! The broccolini with dates did not sound appetizing but are actually amazing, so I suggest trying everything once even if the flavor combinations seem different or unappetizing.” There are even dozens of QR codes throughout the book leading you to short videos of Molly demonstrating proper techniques and kitchen skills. Suddenly, whipping up chorizo and chickpea carbonara and perfecting the famous Molly Baz Cae Sal (aka, Caesar salad) doesn’t seem nearly as daunting as it previously did.

You know that friend who keeps crystals in their bra or always seems to be saging their bedroom (because, um, bad energy)?

Oh, and reviewers claim that it’s not just easy to use, but it’s easy to assemble, as well. Himalayan salt lamps don't just add a warm, pink glow to any space; they’re also said to have several health benefits like cleansing the air (but more on that in a second), helping soothe allergies and boosting mood and sleep. That’s because they’re considered a natural ionizer, boating properties that claim to neutralize positively charged articles. The result? More purified air. This one is specially hand-carved from 100 percent pure Himalayan salt found in Pakistan and is pretty to boot. And that amber glow is hands-down relaxing, so it won’t hurt to flip this on when you’re hoping to reduce stress or anxiety.

62. REFY Lip Sculpt Lip Liner and Setter

sephora

“I’ve always had an affinity for lip products, probably because my lips were one of my biggest insecurities growing up—thank you, to the middle school boys who used to tease me. One day, I decided to embrace my full lips, and I’ve never turned back,” says Associate Fashion Commerce Editor Stephanie Meraz. “The REFY lip sculpt liner in Blush is one of the prettiest, most natural hues I’ve come across. It applies like butter and has a twist function, so you won’t have to deal with a pencil sharpener that seems to never shave down one side. (IYKYK.) If you ask me, it’s the best everyday lip that’ goes on matte and has a light pink undertone. Oh, and this product is dual ended, so if you pull it apart, you’ll find a setting brush that’ll make this baby last all-day long without smudging or coming off when you eat. I know I just bought myself two of the shades, but this is a great gift idea…hint, hint, mom, sister, anyone!”

63. 100 Affirmations to Manifest Love, Abundance, and Confidence by Jennifer Worman

Amazon

“If you are into self-care and manifesting, this journal is for you! I’ve gone through many journals but what I love in particular about this one is that it has space to journal daily along with inspirational affirmations. Whether you’re just getting into affirmations or [are] years into your self growth journey, this journal will help bring you closer to your goals,” says one reviewer. Jennifer Worman—a social media influencer, blogger of Red Soles & Red Wine and single mom of two boy—wrote a workbook on how to become the CEO of your life. For less than three minutes of your day, you’ll read an affirmation designed to help you attract confidence, abundance and attract love. The idea behind the manifestation technique is thought as one way to reprogram your subconscious through repetition, eventually leading you to seek out and attract more positive experiences. As manifestation and mindset coach Lea Fuentes previously told us, it's a step further from idealizing. In fact, “It’s actually saying, ‘OK, I am asking the universe for this thing,’ and as a result the universe puts together the pieces to bring it to you,” she says. So what’re you waiting for?

For an At-Home Facial

64. Mount Lai Gua Sha Facial Lifting Tool

Mount Lai

Curtis has their eyes on this Gua Sha tool from Mount Lai. “It’s a wonderful and affordable way to give yourself an at-home facial,” they say. “Mix with your fav serums or facial oils for instant relaxation.” Here at PureWow, we love a Gua Sha tool for many reasons besides the fact that it’s just so dang soothing. For instance, did you know that it can help move lymphatic fluids and breaks down muscle tension? Or that it reportedly helps your skin rid itself of dirt and oils that might be the culprit of those pimples? As you can tell, investing in a good one is crucial, and this one comes in an iridescent rose quartz hue and is shaped like a heart to hit pressure points and reach all points and crevices of the face. Pink Moon will also send an instruction card along with your purchase that’ll arrive in the cutest reusable pink velvet pouch for protection. Just make sure to invest in a good serum or moisturizer to get a nice slick on your face before tugging at your skin.
