Help someone keep their skin clean and healthy with this exclusive special-edition set by ELEMIS. It has two Pro-Collagen favorites, which we think anyone would love. To melt away makeup and impurities, start off with the Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm. As soon as you begin working it into the skin, it transforms from a silky balm into an oil, and then a milky cleanser. Rinse, and then go in with the Pro-Collagen Marine Cream. It’s formulated with marine algae, ginkgo biloba, and padina pavonica – anti-aging ingredients that also increase hydration. The cream has been clinically proven to reduce the look of fine lines in 14 days, and in a consumer survey, 95 percent of participants reported that their skin felt smoother. In our opinion, that’s something to be merry about!

Tis the season for a new pair of boots and frankly, we’re obsessed with the ones from Zodiac. They’re well-made, inspired by those who love exploration, adventure, and more importantly, those who embrace a unique, vintage-inspired style. One of our favorite looks are these western-inspired tall boot. It has a gorgeous block heel, which makes it easy — and comfortable — to walk in, as well as a medium width calf to give the leg breathing room. We love the pointed toe — round ones are great, but a pointed one is the way to go if you want a more sophisticated “grown lady” feel — and the shoe is available in several different colors. We love it in black, but also like the latte color, as well as cognac. The boot will instantly elevate a pair of leggings, skinny jeans, or even a midi to maxi-length skirt, making it a must for our wardrobe arsenal.

This packable puffer is so stylish, you’ll be sad to hang it up come spring. Made from a lightweight, compressible blend of premium down and EcoPlume insulation, it can face blizzards and bitter rain like you wouldn’t believe. Our favorite feature, however, is how the hood morphs into a carrying case, so you can easily tote the coat around when indoors.

The Heatbud Ceramic Personal Heater from Honeywell is small but mighty when it comes to heating things up. Although only a few inches bigger than a coffee mug, it packs 250 watts of power. Your tootsies will remain toasty as you work or watch TV, and the no-fuss two heat settings make it easy to use. There’s also a tip-over switch to keep it upright.

Ready to enter the world of red light therapy? The SolaWave is a good place to start. The tiny tool offers big anti-aging results, and takes just five minutes to use. The two-in-one device has microcurrent therapy to lift and stimulate collagen production, and can also be used like a Gua Sha tool for depuffing. It’s small enough to travel with, and is also great for targeting hard-to-reach spots around the eyes.

If you’re looking for a throw that will get you through the winter, the Reversible Sherpa/Mink Heated Throw Blanket from Sunbeam is a great option. It’s snuggly and warm with one side being made of mink, and the other warm sherpa. You’ll like the straightforward three-setting of its EliteStyle II controller, and it automatically shuts off after three hours.

You can’t go wrong with the Phoenix Fleece Pullover Hoodie from Nike. It’s relaxed enough to layer over a tank or T-shirt, and there’s plenty of breathing room around the neck. Great for fitness folks or someone who simply likes comfy loungewear, the pullover is sure to make someone happy. Available in two different colors and goes up to size 18W.

Ditch the sweats for this gorgeous sleep set by Lunya. It’s made from 100 percent washable silk, which is cooling and easy to care for. You can find these pajamas in sizes up to XL3 and in seven color options, and the wide-leg pants come with side slits for added breathability. Welcome to sleepytime bliss!

If you’re looking for a whoa-type gift that doesn’t bend the wallet, this affordable treadmill is a great option. The XTERRA Fitness Folding Treadmill has everything you could want with its 12 workout programs, and easy to operate dashboard. With a belt that’s 28-inches wide, it’s a perfect option for joggers, but also features handlebars for those who prefer walking. It has wheels in the front for easy transport, and more than 11,000 folks on Amazon love how quietly it operates.

If you’re one of the many people who tend to “sleep hot,” you’re probably all too familiar with the toss- and turn-inducing effects of bedding that’s too warm. The Buffy Breeze is the best down alternative comforter with cooling properties, and makes a practical but thoughtful gift. It’s made from 100 percent eucalyptus fibers, which are naturally temperature-regulating. The comforter is also cruelty-free and OEKO-TEX-certified, meaning you won’t have to worry about breathing in any harmful substances.

– $200 off when buying any two bikes with code: RIDETOGETHER

One of the reasons we love the bikes from Blix is that along with being easy to use, they’re simply gorgeous. The Sol Eclipse, for example, has an intuitive design, so even if you’re unfamiliar with e-bikes, you’ll get the hang of it fast. The tires are large and the seat is ride for a smoother pedaling experience, and there’s an LED headlight for evening rides. It goes up to 45 miles on a single charge, has a powerful 750 watt motor, and can be enjoyed throughout the year.

The Brooks Power XR Recliner has a slimmer silhouette, making it a great choice for those with smaller spaces. There’s memory foam within the seats, so it’s comfy like a bed, and there’s also a USB port to charge electronics. Whomever gets this will love kicking back after a long day.

These Under Armour Rival Fleece Joggers have you covered when temperatures drop. Their cotton-fleece blend make them warm but breathable — always a nice combo, because it’s never fun overheating. Available in several different colors, they’re a great gift idea for runners, folks who run cold, or who love the cozy feeling sweats provide. We also like how the tapered ankle keeps the bottom from dragging on the floor.

Not a fan of cycling to nowhere? The Echelon Connect Bike EX5-S will fix that problem. It comes with a 22-inch rotating HD touchscreen that connects to live-studio and on-demand workouts to make workout boredom a thing of the past. The competition seat is extra-large, and has six levels of adjustment to find the perfect position.  There are 32 levels of magnetic resistance to keep things spicy for muscles, and there are also two charging ports to charge electronics. Access to the workouts cost $34.99 per month, but considering that’s less than the price of the average monthly gym membership, it’s a deal.

A blazer is a closet staple, and this one from The Drop comes in a variety of colors, and looks great paired with a skirt, jeans, or leggings. We can even see it with sweats, crisp white sneakers, and a tank for a loungewear meets business-casual look. Goes up to size 5X.

With thousands of 5-star Amazon reviews, this affordable elliptical is one of the best last minute gifts for those serious about their fitness. The compact elliptical fits nicely in corners, and can be pulled out to be used in front of the TV when it’s workout time. There’s a digital display to measure time, speed, distance, and calories, plus the wheels make it a breeze to transport where you please.

Buy from Amazon, $149.99 (was $199.99)

Using a vibration plate comes with a number of benefits, including stronger muscles, and promoting lymphatic drainage. While we won’t recommend trading in your treadmill or dumbbells for one, something like the Mini Vibration Plate from LifePro may be worth throwing into your fitness routine. It has a 200 watt motor and full body vibrations to shake you into better shape. It’s also just fun!

Fine hair is more prone to breaking and damage, which is why it’s important to find a brush that won’t add to the problem. We like this reinforced brush from Raincry. It has dual boar and plastic bristles to evenly distribute the scalp’s natural oils for more healthier looking locks. Although an investment, your mane will thank you.

To minimize the look of pores and dark circles, you need Face Glow. It uses naturally-sourced mica, and raspberry seed oil to make skin glowy, and there’s also some sea buckthorn oil, which has vitamin C and essential amino acids. The recipient of The Beauty Shortlist award in 2021, the primer is not too heavy, doubles as a lightweight foundation, and makes one of the best last minute gifts.

A vacuum that can be scheduled to run every day at the same time? Yes, please. The robot vac can also map an entire house, and be programmed to focus on specific rooms. This is great for high traffic areas of the home, and saves loads of time. The app is very easy to use, and the machine’s self cleaning brush nixes the need to deal with untangling pet hair.

Glossier’s Stretch Concealer does a great job at making under-eyes look like they’ve received an extra dose of sleep. The creamy texture slips over fine lines, and leaves a dewy finish. Give to the beauty person in your life. They’ll love you for it.

If you’re new to rowing, the Magnetic Rowing Machine from Sunny Health & Fitness is for you. Pivoting pedals are anti-slip and keep feet in place, while large handles provide comfortable gripping. The machine has eight levels of resistance, and it can be folded and stored upright when not in use.

Fullmoon Serum from Graydon is a water-based formula made with moth bean, a botanical retinol that promotes cell turnover and collagen growth. It also has peptides and amino acids from hibiscus extract to strengthen the epidermis. It’s a great last minute gift idea for those who love anti-aging skincare but can’t tolerate things like retinol. It also smells fantastic!

The X819 Exercise Bike from Pooboo is like a mini gym. It includes a set of lightweight dumbbells, and has a backseat for days you need a more relaxed session. The X-frame design means the bike is extra stable, and the resistance bands are stationed in the front to be used in a wide range of exercises.

Is there anything Drew Barrymore can’t do? Along with being an incredible actress and talkshow host, the mother of two has a lovely kitchenware collection called Beautiful. If you haven’t had a chance to try one of her pieces, we suggest starting with the Beautiful 9QT TriZone Air Fryer. It can defrost, broil, bake, and roast like nobody’s business. When you think about it, it sort of does it all, just like Miss Barrymore, and we ain’t mad at either of them. The machine has a touchscreen interface — easier to keep clean and figure out — and it adds a lovely pop of color to the kitchen.

Gift plan at Dinnerly!

Even if you’re shopping last minute, you can still think outside of the box when it comes to gifts. We love the idea of sending someone a meal delivery kit. It takes all of the work of planning dinner off the receiver’s hands, turns them on to new types of cuisine, and is something the entire family can enjoy. Dinnerly is one of our favorite services. They have a variety of different plans, so regardless if you’re shopping for a vegetarian, someone trying to trim the pounds, or in need of something kid-friendly, you’ll find a plan that works.
