Women can be a tough nut to crack sometimes, especially when shopping for mom. Sometimes, it seems like the go-to floral bouquet is becoming somewhat lackluster — though we love flower delivery services.
Whether you’re shopping for your mom, mother-in-law or the mother-in-law you wish you had, we ran through the gamut of gift ideas. From “Mommy and Me” matching jewelry from Zoe Lev to Mother’s Day-inspired picks from Mark & Graham, we’ve searched everywhere to provide our edit of the best gifts for women practically ever. But we’re a bit biased.
We’ve got picks from lululemon, Our Place, and even some pretty jewelry options from Kendra Scott, and Monica Vinader,— can you tell we’re excited?
Our list is filled with practical, everyday items that they’ll come to love, in addition to some of the most sought-after items we’ve seen. Whichever way you go, we’re certain that any of these picks will be adored, cherished, and appreciated.
For even more options, be sure to check out our edit of the best gifts for your wife and the best luxury gifts for women.

Bath and Body Works Diamond Of The Season Candle

COSRX Niacinamide 15% Face Serum
We love a good face serum at The Post, especially one from COSRX. Niacinamide is amazing at minimizing the look of pores, as well as fading dark spots and improving texture. Just a few drops a day is all it takes!
COSRX Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence
And of course, we can’t forget about this bestselling essence from COSRX. Don’t let the snail mucin part give you pause. It’s actually amazing for your skin and doesn’t feel tacky or slimy. Hydrating and lightweight, thousands (like, 85,000) of Amazon shoppers have given it a try, and we think you’ll be a fan of it, too.

For the avid golfer, a classic Kate Spade bag is always a good choice. This adorable crossbody is all she needs for 18 holes of cuteness and spot-on style.

That means they become even cozier with every wash. Available in a multitude of colors and sizes, they have deep pockets and are super breathable, too! Who knows? You may want to grab yourself a set while you’re at it.
Mark & Graham Small Jewelry Travel Case
For a unique gift idea that’s sure to be cherished — especially when traveling — the Mark & Graham Small Jewelry Travel Case is our go-to recommendation. It’s a fairly priced option that you can choose to personalize for an additional $12.50, picking from the brand’s suite of colors and patterns upon checkout.
Its pebbled vegan leather is encased with a soft linen lining and silver hardware to measure up to that high-quality gift she desires. More, its its Commute Clutch ($129) gets packed with us every time.
LANEIGE Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Intensive Moisturizer
You know we love ourselves a LANEIGE product. The brand never fails to impress when giving us something hydrating to treat our skin to. Our pick for this gift guide for women? Its Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Intensive Moisturizer. It has dry skin quenching squalene, plus purified cica to soothe. Your skin will love it.
Trader Joe’s 5 Items or Less Cookbook
Everyone and their mother (and, honestly, grandmother), loves Trader Joe’s. For less than $25 on Amazon, the Trader Joe’s 5 Items or Less Cookbook is probably one of our favorite finds — and one we want to add to our carts stat.
Monica Vinader Mini Nugget Pearl Beaded Bracelet
For sustainably made jewelry designed for the minimalist, Monica Vinader has the most premium of fashions, much like its Mini Nugget Pearl Beaded Bracelet. Specifically, its natural pearls, recycled gold and silver accents and responsibly manufactured process to create it is simply impressive.
Other favorite items to look into for gift-giving include its Intaglio Adjustable Dove Necklace ($195) — featuring a stunning amethyst dove at the center — Swirl Medium Hoop Earrings ($175) and Pearl Scatter Adjustable Necklace ($250), the latter matching the bracelet quite perfectly.
LANEIGE Berries ‘N Choco Kisses Set
If you’re looking for a sweet and affordable gift, you’ll like this pick. The Berries ‘N Choco Kisses Set from LANEIGE has the brand’s infamous sleeping lip mask, as well as a moisturizing lip balm to soothe a dry pucker. Perfect for Valentine’s Day or Galentine’s Day, the set isn’t even $30, and packs a ton of moisture.
Dagne Dover Mara Neoprene Phone Sling
Enter a gift we’re already planning to share with everyone we know IRL. The Dagne Dover Mara Neoprene Phone Sling is a phenomenal gift for less than $100, thanks to its cushion-soft feel and practical charm. In short, it’s the lovechild of your favorite belt bag and crossbody.
We’re not finished raving about Dagne Dover, either. We equally love its Landon Neoprene Carryall Bag ($125 – $245) — a quality duffle bag — and Hunter Neoprene Toiletry Bag ($45 – $65) that makes traveling a snap.
lululemon Chargefeel 2 Mid Workout Shoe
Real talk — the lululemon Chargefeel 2 Mid Workout Shoe is our comfiest pair yet (read our full review for more) and offer incredible movement, support and flexibility. The brand offers the Chargefeel 2 Low Workout Shoe ($138) as well, though we’re too in love with the higher-ups because the additional, moisture-wicking fabric helps prevent blisters even more.
Can’t get enough of lulu? Pick up the brand’s Daily Stride Comfort No-Show Socks ($34) and waitlist-inducing Everywhere Belt Bag ($38) for a more complete gift.
Best for Multiple Initials: 14k Gold Pleated Charm Disc Necklace
Add a diamond halo around this pleated charm disc and place her favorite letter, symbol, or both (up to five!) to showcase her beloved sign or family member.
Our Place Always Pan 2.0
We can’t say enough good things about the Our Place Always Pan 2.0. It’s the elevated version of the brand’s original cookware piece (that we reviewed, BTW) and comes in a bounty of fabulous colors to suit your loved one’s fancy (and her stovetop).
This trusty kitchen staple is said to replace 10 pieces of cookware — yes, you read that correctly — and is all abuzz on social media. “Deep enough to roast a chicken, shallow enough to flip an egg, the Always Pan 2.0 is the gold standard for versatility,” per Our Place.
LILYSILK Pure Silk Belted Wrap Women‘s Robe
A silk robe is one of those things most of us would like but won’t treat ourselves to. Fortunately, that’s where thoughtful folks like you come in. If that resonates, we suggest going with this robe from LILYSILK. It’s currently on sale for Valentine’s Day, ships free, and is made of luxurious 100% mulberry silk. Timelessly classic, we’re jealous of whomever gets to slip it on.
This robe is also available in full length.
NIRA Precision Laser
Skin care is self-care. Too bad in-office treatments are so expensive. Fortunately, it’s possible to bring the MedSpa to your home with the anti-aging skincare devices from NIRA. Our Commerce Updates Editor (who loves skincare devices) adores the brand’s Precision Laser. It’s nozzle is small enough to target fine lines around the eyes and mouth, and it only need to be used 2 minutes a day. According to our editor, it doesn’t hurt, plus it’s FDA-cleared.
Cozy Earth Women’s Oversized Cable Knit Cardigan
Wrap her in warmth and timeless style with the Cozy Earth Women’s Oversized Cable Knit Cardigan. Boasting an oversized fit and classic cable knit pattern, this cardigan is a winter wardrobe essential. Embrace the cozy charm and stay fashionably warm throughout the season.
lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag
Don’t call it a fanny pack! This belt bag from lululemon is popular for a reason and is as stylish as can be. It easily holds a phone, wallet, lipstick — a lot, and comes in a variety of pretty colors. Wear around the waist of as a crossbody. Either way, you’ll look fantastic!
Dyson Airstrait Straightener
Your new favorite hair tool is the Dyson Airstrait — a product we didn’t know could measure up to the bran’d top-rated Airwrap Multi-Styler Complete ($600) but somehow did.
We reviewed the Dyson Airstrait and can attest it’s the quickest hair tool to take your hair from damp to dry. That’s right — no lineup of hair straighteners and curling irons, and no waiting for your device to heat up. It’s available to order from so many spots online, and is a gift we anticipate trending this year.
Kendra Scott Elle Gold Drop Earrings
Our readers adore the Kendra Scott Elle Gold Drop Earrings — and for a good reason. They come in an array of hues, offer the ideal accessory that’s not too big nor too small and will never go out of style.
They just so happen to be a favorite of ours, too. Fairly priced at $60, this best-selling pair upholds Kendra Scott’s signature statement shape and inlaid with a genuine custom-cut stone.
Outerknown Blanket Shirt
Made from organic cotton twill, there’s nothing quite like the Blanket Shirt from Outerknown. Soft and featuring an easy fit, she’ll want to wear it every.single.day! It’s available in a multitude of colors, looks great with jeans, and also has convenient chest pockets.
Gorjana Birthstone Coin Necklace
Best Unique Gift Idea

It’s delicate enough to be layered with other pieces and plated in 18 karat gold for lots of shine. Select your person’s birthstone to go in the center. Or, if you’re feeling lovey dovey, choose your own, so they can take a piece of you wherever they go.
FUTURE SOCIETY OPTIMAL HABITAT PRIMER AND SCENT SURRECTION SET

Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Jet Set
For Those Who Love to Smell Yummy
Because who doesn’t want to be supple, soft and tight in all the right places? We know the beauty cult classic Bum Bum Cream needs no introduction, but this gift set also includes the Pistachio & Salted Caramel Fragrance Mist, as well as the Brazilian Play Moisturizing Shower Cream Gel. Each smells fantastic, is free of sulfates and parabens, and totally cruelty-free! Everything comes in this cute travel bag and makes an awesome gift idea for women for Valentine’s Day, birthdays or just because.
Headspace Meditation and Mindfulness Membership
We reviewed Headspace and deem it to be the gift that keeps on giving. After all, there’s no greater gift than treating the woman you love to some much-needed R&R — a platform that can help quiet her mind, encourage better sleep and aid in lower stress levels.
The particular membership you choose, whether monthly or annually, is up to you and your personal budget. Your gift recipient will also enjoy the brand’s new immersive nature content in its National Park Collection.

For a stocking stuffer or gift add-on that won’t cost you more than $15, the Rifle Paper Co.

Floral patterns are available online, too, and she’ll love its miniature size to take notes anywhere.

- Size options: XS-XL
This isn’t our first year putting together gift guides, and we’re well-aware Lulus coats are always a hit among our readers. This year, we’re glossing over the brand’s Winter Wanderings Plaid Coat — a decadently knitted neutral and muted blue combo that’s picture-perfect for any crisp and cool day.
For more options, check out our guide to the best women’s coats.
Cricut Joy
For Women Who Love Arts and Crafts
For the crafty, DIY-all-day recipient, buying the Cricut Joy is a no-brainer. The brand offers plenty of variations, though this is the most affordable one and designed to handle basic customization tasks, like creating custom cards, simple decals and labels. Even better, it’s compact and can create those dazzling projects in 15 minutes or less, per Cricut.
JBL Go 3 Portable Bluetooth Speaker
For Music Lovers
We would be nothing without our favorite playlists (seriously, we take way too much pride in them), and the JBL Go 3 Portable Bluetooth Speaker is an all-around great gift — especially if you don’t want to spend more than $50. Whether clipped onto her beach bag for an upcoming vacation or work tote for her weekly office commute, rest assured she’ll appreciate it.

This just in — the hottest gift for the zodiac-obsessed gal you know. The Tai New Zodiac Charm Necklace is beyond beautiful and one the woman in your life can wear on repeat. Its lobster clasp, simulated crescent moon charm with simulated opal detailing and pavé cubic zirconia zodiac symbol are nice touches, too.
SPANX Faux Leather Leggings

Let’s all bow down to the SPANX Faux Leather Leggings (we’re not kidding). Still on its viral kick for a few years in the making, these bottoms are perfect for the woman who loves a flattering, put-together look with minimal effort. Not only are they some of the best leggings we reviewed but they look great with anything — be it some shiny white sneakers or an edgy moto jacket.
23andMe Health + Ancestry Service
The 23andMe Health + Ancestry Service is a prime example (literally, thanks to its availability on Amazon Prime) of a gift your loved one is interested in, but may not purchase for herself. Luckily for you, it’s a service we reviewed and have since been super impressed by, thanks to its efficacy in digging through your DNA to provide insights on family history, genetics and more. Hey, you may even meet a new, distant relative like we did.

Shop the Lulu Candles Espresso Bean Luxury Scented Soy Jar Candle if the woman you’re gift-giving to spends a good chunk of her time at Dunkin’ or Starbucks.

We scream, you scream, we all scream for…the Ninja CREAMi Ice Cream Maker.

It’s compact enough to store when finished and — drumroll please — you can even make gelato.

Revlon One-Step Volumizer Enhanced 1.0 Hair Dryer and Hot Air Brush
The Revlon One-Step Volumizer Enhanced 1.0 Hair Dryer and Hot Air Brush is still having her time in the spotlight, and we’re simply going to let it ride. This trusty blow dryer is well-loved for its budget-friendly price point and easy-to-achieve salon look (proof: we reviewed it). It’s also a No.1 Amazon best-seller with nearly 16,000 gleaming reviews from beauty enthusiasts nationwide.
If your budget is a bit wider or you’re interested in a more high-end option, we rank the amika Hair Blow Dryer Brush 2.0 ($100) — that we reviewed, too — the Drybar The Double Shot Blow-Dryer Brush ($155) and the T3 AireBrush Duo Interchangeable Hot Air Blow Dry Brush ($190) highly after using them for years.
Maison Margiela ‘REPLICA’ Memory Box Mini Perfume Sampler Set
Turn her on to a new scent or two by going with a sampler perfume scent. This one from Maison Margiela has rave reviews, and includes the brand’s popular Beach Walk. If none of these sound good to you or the person you’re shopping for, Sephora has a dozen other perfume sets to grab for your lady.

We like this gift idea for Valentine’s Day or anniversaries. The 12 day sex calendar style box set is filled with O-inspiring goodies, including the Bestselling Lovehoney Dream Wand Vibrator, a sleep mask, vanilla scented lube and position cards. Although great for couples, it definitely can be enjoyed alone. Plus, the packaging is so cute!

Fun fact: the SMEG 50s Retro-Style 2-Slice Toaster was the exact pink-colored one that was seen in this year’s “Barbie” movie, but that’s not the only reason we love it and think it’s an exceptional gift. It’s a well-balanced kitchen appliance that marries a blast-to-the-past style with modernity — and it’s easily functional, too.

Some callout recipes include her Everyday Pancake Mix, Oven-Baked Cajun Fries and Penne alla Vodka, all of which we’ve made ourselves. You can’t beat the less-than-$20 price tag, either.

A moment of silence, please. The GreenPan Reserve Blush 10-Piece Ceramic Non-Stick Cookware Set is truly the most beautiful cookware set we’ve seen (seriously, pink and gold?!) You’re kidding.

Anne Klein Sawyer Boot
- Size options: US 6 to 10
For chillier seasons, we love a knee-high boot. This one from Anne Klein comes in three different colors, is perfect for work and play, and features a comfortable block heel. The side zipper makes it simple to slip on and off, and we love the idea of pairing it with a maxi skirt and tights or a pair of leggings or jeans.

The brand’s Tazz Suede Mule Slippers are available at several online retailers, offer a slight platformed design and — the most important part — are undeniably comfy. We love its signature weaving by the ankles, too.
If you really want to go all-out, pick up the UGG Whistler Throw Blanket ($98) for a two-in-one cozy gift. It just so happens to be one of the best blankets we reviewed.
Aerin Cedar Violet Eau de Parfum
If you want to smell like fall and winter goodness, you’ll pick up the Aerin Cedar Violet Eau de Parfum. By far, it’s a fragrance that garners the most compliments (out of the entire perfume tray we have on rotation, may we add) and its warm floral scent notes of violet leaf, Virginia Cedarwood and amber are enough to draw you in.
Don’t want the full size? No problem. The brand also has its Cedar Violet Eau de Parfum Mini Size ($35) that’s even more on-the-go-friendly.

For Women Who Love Their Beauty Sleep
As seen on subway ads and all over Instagram, Brooklinen is a brand with a high regard (among us, too, because we reviewed its sheets — including its cooling sheets — and are one step away from writing a love letter.

Dyson V12 Detect Slim Vacuum
Speaking of Dyson, what would a “best gifts for women” guide be without a mention of everyone’s favorite cordless vac? Seriously, you know you’re an adult when you become giddy over something like this.
And, rightfully so.

The brand’s Portable Charger Luggage Tag ($32) has to be the most genius idea we’re constantly promoting IRL — though it’s currently out of stock (*insert crying emoji here*), but you can join the waitlist so you’re notified ASAP when you can order the accessory.
