1. The Dyson Airwrap Styler Complete: the big wishlist item

Dyson Official Outlet - Airwrap Styler

The Dyson Airwrap Styler Complete is on the top of every woman’s wishlist this year—and every year. It’s not just for women, either. Guys, gals, and nonbinary pals all love the Dyson Airwrap, and it’s easy to see why. Dyson’s use of Coanda airflow shapes your hair around the styling tool using only directional air, so there’s no way for it to tangle or get caught. It works like a magic trick. You can see it in action in my review here

If you have hair, you know that the Airwrap will give you the best hair of your life. These gentle stylers create soft, bouncy hairstyles that last all day with minimal heat application. Not only are they complete kits for smoothing, shaping, drying, and curling, but they minimize the heat damage being applied to your hair to keep it looking healthy and lush in the long run.

My guilty pleasure? Watching YouTubers and TikTokers style their golden retrievers’ hair with Dyson Airwraps. It’s half secret luxury, half silliness, and fully fascinating to watch. This holiday season, the Dyson Airwrap Styler Complete is the ultimate, must-have personal gift for her.

2. A hair straightener… without the flat iron

Dyson Airstrait

Looking for a more specific styler? I’m starting this list off with three heavy hitters from Dyson. Each one performs at the top of its class, but it’s up to you to know what kind of hairstyle the woman in your life loves. 

The Dyson Airwrap is a great all-around tool, but it really shines at creating a bouncy blowout. For sleeker styles, the Dyson Airstrait Straightener is a great option. It looks like a flat iron, but it isn’t: It works using high-pressure directional airflow, which causes less damage to your hair. It’s a quiet, innovative tool that’s the ultimate in luxury for both wet and dry hair. Because the Airstrait is so much gentler than a traditional flat iron, it’s a great gift for people with beautiful hair that’s been damaged by colour processing. In other words, if she bleaches and straightens her hair a lot, she’ll love this! 

3. The Dyson Supersonic hair dryer

The Dyson Airwrap and Airstrait may be cool tools, but they aren’t the originals. That title belongs to the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer, a powerful luxury hair dryer that remains unsurpassed in the haircare market.

Built from luxuriously heavy materials and now available in a beautiful topaz colourway, the Supersonic is the crème de la crème of hair dryers. It reduces frizz, dries faster and more gently than a “regular” hair dryer, and will look amazing on your gift recipient’s countertop. And unlike a styling tool that needs to be used slowly, the Supersonic will help your giftee save time while styling their hair. It’s just as functional (and exciting) of a gift for students as it is for working moms.

4. Braun Silk Expert Pro 5: a long-lasting self-care gift

Braun Silk Expert 5

The Braun Silk Expert Pro 5 IPL Hair Removal System is an at-home product that’s designed for the long term. It uses Intense Pulsed Light Therapy to reduce hair growth in an area for up to six months after one month of treatment. 

The Silk Expert Pro 5 flashes up to 125 times per minute for faster results. It features SensoAdapt technology to optimize the light pulse for different skin tones and comes with two sensitive modes on top of that—both for sensitive skin and for sensitive areas. 

IPL hair removal always comes with a noticeable price tag, but Braun’s Silk Expert line is designed for long-term home use. Just like all permanent and semi-permanent hair removal, this isn’t meant to be a one-and-done product. It’s a sleekly built device that your recipient can use sporadically for years to come on areas like her arms, face, and legs with semi-permanent results each time. 

5. Smooth shaving with the Philips One Blade Pro 360

Philips OneBlade Pro 360

When it comes to wet+dry hair removal, the Philips OneBlade Pro 360 wet & dry face + body trimmer/shaver is a heavyweight. This body trimmer and shaver makes every “best of” list and has for many years. The OneBlade is a precisely-designed tool with a 360 degree blade that flexes with the contours of your face or body. 

The Philips OneBlade Pro 360 features a precision comb with 14 length options and a waterproof design. It charges in one hour for up to two hours of cordless use. It’s great for all areas of the body—and by that, Philips really does mean all

6. Gifts for long days: byTheia LED light therapy beauty mask

byTheia led mask

The byTheia LED Light Therapy beauty mask is a seven-colour LED light therapy mask at a very affordable price point. For skincare lovers who want to add another step to their routine without adding in another cream or serum, light therapy can be a great add-on product. It’s easy to tell if the person you’re buying a gift for might like light therapy: Does she have a bottle of Cetaphil next to the bathroom sink? Or, does she have an eight-step Korean skincare regimen that she follows every single night?

If it’s the latter, she might love light therapy.

What I really enjoy about gifting a light therapy mask is that you’re encouraging that person to take a little more time for themself. The typical light therapy session is 10-20 minutes long, and these masks are unweildy. So, to treat concerns like acne, fine lines, or age spots, your recipient will likely need to sit or lie down for that duration. It’s a great way to encourage mindfulness and rest for someone who always needs to be multitasking. After all, she’s not just lying down and listening to a podcast—she’s also working on her collagen production. 

7. An oil-infused hair straightener

Revlon Smoothstay flatiron

Great hair tools don’t have to come with a high price tag. The Revlon SmoothStay Coconut Oil Infused hair straightener is an excellent example of that. This 1″ iron features 10 heat settings so that you can minimize damage to your hair while maximizing the longevity of your hairstyle. 

The SmoothStay features ceramic plates infused with coconut oil to deliver smooth, sleek styles. Opt for a flat iron like this one for a gift recipient who loves glossy, shiny hairstyles. 

8. Personal care gifts for her health: Waterpik water flosser

Waterpik Cordless Flosser

For gift recipients who love tech tools but don’t style their hair or invest in their skincare routine, a basic wellness device like the Waterpik Cordless Water Flosser is a great choice. Water flossers are awesome for tooth and gum health—but make sure the recipient would want a gift like this. Buying someone a water flosser is very, very similar to buying someone a toothbrush, so it’s your responsibility to make sure your giftee will understand that this gift is an investment in their oral health, not a snide remark about their breath!

I have this exact model of water flosser and I love it. (It was a gift from my partner and yes, I was thrilled to receive it!) Dental hygiene is something that’s very important to me, and both my dentist and I agree that my gums are a little more robust when I’ve been using my Waterpik. The cordless function of this particular model makes it much more pleasant to use than a regular water flossier. I find it to be quieter than countertop models, too. 

9. A Philips Sonicare indulgence in dental hygiene 

Philips Sonicare gift guide

Great self-care gifts for her don’t have to be beauty-related. Sometimes simple luxuries like a fantastic new toothbrush are the best gift of all. They’re a way to say I want every part of your day to feel fantastic without having to put it into words.

I love Sonicare toothbrushes for this. I actually own a few: One in my home, one in my partner’s, and one at my parents’. Nothing gets my teeth feeling clean like a Sonicare toothbrush does, and they’re especially great during the holiday season when sugary snacks may be a nightly indulgence. They truly make tooth brushing feel more luxurious and they’re more effective than a manual toothbrush.

The Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 6300 Electric Toothbrush is an excellent model to opt for. It’s a workhorse product that looks great sitting next to the bathroom sink, works well, and will last for years. The 6300 features three modes and three intensity levels so you can customize your brushing for your teeth, making it a great choice for whitening, sensitivity, and everything in between. 

10. An Oral-B upgrade 

Oral-B iO Series 10

For those who prefer rotational scrubbing from their toothbrush, Oral-B is the way to go. The Oral-B iO Series 10 Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush is a sleek, black toothbrush with micro-vibrating bristles and a round brush head. You can select from seven brushing settings on the iO Series 10, including Daily Clean, Sensitive, Gum Care, Intense Clean, Super Sensitive, Tongue Clean, and Whitening. This toothbrush also features a live coaching system, making it a great choice for gifting to a younger girl or someone who’s ready to up their dental hygiene game. 

A brand new electric toothbrush is an upgrade on a simple tool that your recipient can enjoy every day. That’s what great gifts are about, you know? Creating little ways to bring more enjoyment to the people you love, every single day.
