This post is about the best gifts to mail for christmas.
How many times have you gone to buy a thoughtful gift or even a last-minute gift during the holiday season, all to feel like you still have zero options by the time you get done searching? I’ve been there and it sucks. Not only is it your money you’re spending, but you want the person on the receiving end to know it was one of the best christmas gifts they could’ve gotten!
Good news friends, this post is all about finding the best gifts to mail for christmas, instead of just a gift card or subscription services! Your best friend or family member will be thankful in knowing you got them a meaningful gift!
The Best Gifts to Mail for Christmas:
1. Pillow Slides Dupe
While I have the Pillow Slides brand, these BRONAX Cloud Slippers are rated five stars on Amazon and are also a number one seller.
Regardless of which brand you choose, these are by far the softest and greatest things I’ve ever gifted myself. Lol. Reason why these are number one for online gifts to give as the perfect gift.
These no slip shoes – which make for great shower shoes – are made of a thick rubber sole that provides extreme cushion. I prefer to wear these around the apartment as house shoes, but I’ve seen others where them out and about. Pillow Slides or Cloud Slippers would be a great addition to spa gift sets.
Another high ranking cushioned slide sandal is the rosyclo cloud slipper – coming nineteen different color choices.
2. Adventure Book
The Adventure Challenge Book is one of the most perfect christmas gifts ever!! It is such a unique christmas gift and one of my favorite things to do!
There are different versions of this challenge which makes this book one of the best personal gifts; The Adventure Challenge Friends Edition, The Adventure Challenge Solo Edition, The Adventure Challenge Couples Edition and The Adventure Challenge Family Edition. It’s such a good idea for any scenario that your loved one may be in!
How it works: It’s basically an adult scratch off book. You have no idea what the “game” or challenge is until you scratch it off to do the activity.
Each page of activities gives you the estimated time it’ll take, a dollar amount range and what time of day is best to do it – evening, rainy days, etc! It also gives you hints as to what it entails.
Get this for your friends or family so they can Pick a Challenge, Scratch it off, Do the Adventure and Capture the Memory!
The best part… don’t forget your portable polaroid camera, like this Fujifilm Instamax Mini with Fujifilm Instant Mini Film, to snap a photo of your experience! Tape it to the day of the activity to look back on.
3. Dyson Air Styler
The Dyson Airwrap Complete Styler is an all-in-one that includes a smoothing brush, a volumizing brush, a pre styling dryer and curling wand attachments.
Perfect for creating smooth and voluminous curls without the damaging heat compared to other hair tools.
While the Dyson Airwrap styler is on the higher end of the price spectrum, you have to consider the quality and longevity of the products Dyson produces. This all-in-one hair tool provides quick and beautiful curls or a blow out look.
While this Canbrake 5 in 1 Hair Styler is similar to the pre-styler of the Dyson, there are no curling aspects to this styling wand, other than the roll brush attachment. However, it is way more affordable and has 4.5 star reviews on Amazon! Definitely worth taking a look into.

4. Revlon Volume Brush
This Revlon volume hair dryer changed my hair game! I have long, thick hair. So having volume at my roots does not come natural for me!
The first time I used this volumizing brush I was sold.
It’s exactly like having the combination of a roll brush and your hair dryer – which I don’t know about you, but I cannot blow out my hair like the hairstylist’s do lol. It’s so hard! Having this combo makes it a thousand times easier and more efficient!
The Revlon Volume Brush seriously decreases my styling time and dries my hair with more than half the frizziness gone with three different heat settings! Low, High and Cool. It smooths your hair as you’re gliding it through the bristles. I’ve tried other high dollar volume – like the Le Volume 75mm from Lange – and I personally returned it and went back to my Revlon.
To each their own though! The Le Volume volumizing hair brush has 5 star reviews out of 37,000 ratings! Take a peak at the Le Volume 75mm 2-in-1 Brush Dyer here. It comes with a protective storage cover and a cleaning brush to get all those hairs out. One thing I can say the Revlon, does not.
I also recommend this Hot Tools 1.5 inch Curling Iron to finish off your styling process!
5. Multi Device Charging Station
Okay how aesthetically pleasing and organized is this Fuel Wireless Charging Station?! While you can find some alternative options on Amazon, this power station has a five star review and holds up to four devices all at once.
That means no ugly cords sticking out everywhere! Lol.
Charge up your iPhone, iWatch, AirPods and even a fourth device via a USB hub. The iWatch sits on a magnetic attachment, so no worries of it falling off.
This sleek design is eye catching and doesn’t take up much space on a night stand. It isn’t sold in stores though, so you’d have to utilize Target’s free shipping and 30 day return policy.
6. Rechargable Hand Warmer
Okay how freaking cool is this gift idea? I’m not entirely sure when someone decided to create an electronic version of Hot Hands hand warmers, but I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT.
These rechargable hand warmers come in 14 color options and have prime one day shipping!
The polished exterior gives a smooth feel for max comfortability, double sided heat and there are three adjustable heat settings with the click of a button.
3 levels of temperatures: 95-107°F, 104-118°F and 118-131°F.
Rechargable hand warmers are a perfect gift for anyone really. I mean, how many times do we catch ourselves out in super cold temperatures with our hands shoved in our pockets?! They’re great for those with arthritic hands and joints that hurt in the cold temperatures (raising my hand here! lol), outdoor sports fanatics and also for those outdoorsman who hunt and camp.
You can’t beat these OCOOPA’s with their almost 5 star review out of 22,000 votes!
7. Apple Watch
I feel like by now, the people who don’t have an Apple Watch are trulyyyy missing out. I use mine every single day.
The technology on these Apple watches have come so far. It of course has a fitness tracker, but also an ECG and blood oxygen monitor. Not to mention, have you seen the really awesome commercials where the person leaves their phone behind while they’re surfing? The incredible safety features of crash and fall detection automatically connect you to emergency services.
It also tracks your sleep cycles! LIKE ( insert mind blown emoji ) why have we not gifted this sooner?!
The Apple Watch Series 8 – which is the newest model – comes in two sizes 41mm and 45mm ( which is the size of the “face”).
Take a peak at your shopping options below. Those who receive iWatches are 10/10 ecstatic!
8. Seamless Beanie
Hellllllo beanie season! Not much to say about beanies really, except that they look cute as hell and hello bad hair days 😉
This is by far the most trendy beanie style you’ll see for 2022.
9. Weighted Eye Mask
This is a five star gentle pressure sleep mask that blocks out light while you sleep or travel! It’s filled with small beads that contour to the shape of your face. It’s machine washable and comes in 11 different colors!
The Nodpod has two sides, one for warmth and one for a cooling sensation. If you want it even cooler, you can toss it in the freezer.
The best part, there’s a pull through strap that allows you to lay in any position without it falling off.
10. Air Fryer
Air Fryers are seriously one of the greatest inventions of recent times. Being able to get crunchy foods without having to through them in the oven is such a convenience! I also love how you can crisp healthy foods too!
Any foodie would LOVE this as a kitchen gift! It’s for sure one of the best gifts to mail for christmas.
11. Maelys B Tight
Seriously, stop what you’re doing and buy one of these for you and your friend. I stay stocked up on Maelys B Tight firming cream! I’m always a skeptic when it comes to “firming” creams and lotions. But I have seen a huge improvement on my thighs and butt since I started using this!
I apply it to my thighs and butt before work. I do it in the day time because a slight burning sensation occurs after you rub it in. ( *so make sure you wash your hands after the application* ) The warming sensation doesn’t bother me because I know that means it’s working to waken up my cells to produce tightening.
I have used it at night before bed! It’s not terrible if you’re not distracted by the burn and can’t fall asleep. I just like to sleep cold lol. So anything warm throws me off.
10/10 recommend this product!!!
12. LED Light Therapy Mask
Five stars and WAY more affordable than the thousand dollar light masks. LED light therapy is extremely beneficial for the skin as it’s anti aging, prevents fine lines and wrinkles, lifts and firms the skin, diminished black spots, acne spots and uneven skin tone. Results can be seen in as little as two weeks.
This LED light therapy mask comes in seven different colors for different skin problems. Read more about those benefits here!
13. Electric Wine Opener
My electric wine opener is a life saver. No more worrying over broken pieces of cork falling into the wine from a manual opener. This rechargeable electric wine opener is easy to use and doesn’t take up alot of space.I love the LED light as the corkscrew moves down into the cork and then retracts. The foil cutter is GOLD. I can’t tell you how many minutes I used to waste trying to peel apart the foil. One quick twist of the cutter and the top foil pops off.
14. Glass Art
I adore these glass art music gifts. Capture a special moment with someone special and send them your memory in a beautiful piece of art. This specific album cover music plaque is made through Etsy and lights up with an LED base. They are made of acrylic panels for better shipping. Note that this is just a display, no music is projected from the art.
15. Vanity Planet Exfoliating Wand
One of my favorite personal care items that I own. This microdermabrasion wand exfoliates the skin as it suctions to rid pores of any dirt and impurities. This is perfect for blackheads, acne and clogged pores. You’re walked through a four minute routine to purify all areas of the face. The miniature screen shows you the area of your face to work on and which direction to pull the wand.
This one of the best beauty gifts as it works to lighten hyperpigmentation, stimulates collagen production and reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
16. Hammock
Literally five stars out of 45,60 reviews. This single or double hammock is perfect for camping, a relaxing afternoon outside, under the stars or by a fire. It’s portable, folds down to the size of an eggplant and comes with carabiners and tree straps. The Wise Owl Outfitters hammock comes in fifteen colors and is made of nylon. The single hammock holds up to 400lbs while the double hammock holds up to 500lbs.
17. Mixology Tool Set
This gorgeous gorgeous mixology tool set comes in black, silver, gold and rose copper! The black is actually my favorite aesthetics wise. It comes with so many tools and is organized in a bamboo stand. There are 23 pieces in all and is dishwasher safe and rust proof!
Such a great gift for home bars and happy hours!
18. Cold Brew Coffee Maker
Cold brew is one of the best versions of coffee in my opinion. I think it’s because the flavor steeps for so long. And anything beverage that’s cold is better 😉
This #1 Best Selling Deluxe Cold Brew maker holds 1 quart of coffee. There’s a fine metal mesh in the center to fill with your coffee. Let brew for 24 hours and then store in the fridge.
This Cold Brew Coffee Maker has been featured in Martha Stewart, People Magazine and The Today show, among many others!
Adding this to my personal Christmas gift list!
19. Cross Body Fanny Pack
Cross body fanny packs are back baby! One of my favorite trends from the 90s being back in style. This specific mini fanny pack has an adjustable strap and comes in so many colors I couldn’t count them all. Lol.
It’s light weight, durable and holds all your essentials for a run, hike or for a casual outfit.
If you don’t like the basic look due to it being unisex, take a peek at this one I just bought for my Disney World trip! It comes in THIRTY EIGHT colors! Lol.
20. Theragun Muscle Massager
I know I say I love a lot of these but it’s because I truly do!! Bringing a theragun into my life was one of the best things I decided to do. Whether my muscles are sore from a workout or just posture pain, these muscle massaging guns are the ideal way to loosen up knots and allow your muscles to recover faster.
The different attachments allow you pinpoint your muscle groups in different ways with varying speeds.
If you don’t gift this to someone else, gift it to yourself. Can we keep a secret? I actually bought this for someone else and kept it for myself!! Hahah. SO worth the investment!
21. Carbonated Beer Growler
This stainless steel GrowlerWerks carbonated growler is a perfect gift for beer lovers! It holds 64 oz and keeps your beer fresh for weeks! The growler comes with two CO2 tanks and you’re able to see the level so you know when to replace the carbon dioxide. Such a neat gift!
22. Bocce Ball Set
Okay, so I’m 29 and up until this summer, I had NEVER heard of bocce ball! Call me crazy, I know. But my friends and I played it out on the beach during one of our beach days and it was soooo much fun, y’all!
The idea is one person throws the white ball and out of four players (one getting each color ball) you see who can get closest to the white ball in only two shots!
Whoever wins that round gets to toss the white ball to another location. This is SUCH a fun way to spend a day out in the sun!
23. AirPods Max
I am not opposed that over the ear headphones have come back. Between having a trendy style, multiple color options and the noise cancelling quality that AirPods have – these are BOUND to be a hot commodity for this year’s christmas gifts!
24. Velvet Caviar Wallet Phone Case
This is my current phone case and I am OBSESSED. Not only is it extremely cute with the design, but it holds 3-4 cards in the back slot. Which means, no lugging around a wallet! This has been my best investment yet as far as phone cases go. Before I head out of the house, I just make sure I have my ID and cards loaded in the back! Since there’s no pop socket or loop ring, I also got this metal grip ring for the back! It attaches with a peel and stick adhesive. Both the phone and case have held up for months now!
This is the same design but not in a wallet form!
25. Hoka Running Shoes
Hands down the best running and fitness shoes known to man! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen and heard of people raving over these Hoka Running shoes. The Hoka Bondi 8’s have the best reviews when I did my own personal research. They’re lightweight, yet durable and give great cushioning for those who run or do exercises that needs cushioning!
This post was all about the best gifts to mail for christmas. Best of luck on your holiday shopping!!
