ICYMI, the holiday shopping season is already well underway (50% of us started before Halloween, actually). But what do our loved ones want most? Holiday gift sets are BIG this year, and no, thankfully they don’t all have to come from Bath and Body Works. If you’re ready to check people off your list, then look no further than shopping our favorite holiday gift sets for 2023, all under $100.
Want to buy your loved one perfume…but don’t know her favorite scent? Don’t worry, Sephora’s got you. For $85 not only will you get 16 perfume samples, you’ll also get a certificate to take to any Sephora store and trade in for a full size version of your favorite. (And hey, even the ones she doesn’t love can be demoted to a tiny bathroom spray.) ($85)
What’s better than a scented candle at the holidays? A scented candle for every room. We love the rich scents of Diptyque–and think you will, too. Included in this set are five mini candles in Baies (Berries), Roses, 34 Boulevard Saint-Germain, Ambre (Amber), and Feu de Bois (Wood Fire). ($100)
A gift that’s both adorable and helps protect the planet? Sign us up. This set of reusable bags from Baggu will each hold 2-3 plastic grocery bags worth of stuff. They also come in a variety of fun prints–everything from Hello Kitty to Needlepoint Fruit. ($42)
Picture it… snow is falling outside, you’re under a cozy blanket and sipping on a hot of tea. This fancy set features a mix of 24 of Vahdam’s best selling teas (everything from Sweet Cinnamon to Earl Gray)–just add hot water. Plus, we absolutely adore the tiny tins the tea comes in… we smell a handy purse-sized pill case once all the tea is used up 🙂 And pro tip: we’ve heard this tea is the perfect bevvy to drink while relaxing to your favorite episodes of the HerMoney Podcast. ($59.99)
The perfect gift for the person who needs to wind down and get a good night’s sleep… Because who doesn’t need more of that? These Dreamland holiday gift sets from Lush include a selection of products made with their “sleepy scent” of tonka and lavender. An added bonus–it’s packaged in a musical tin. Wind it up, and drift off to dreamland. ($84)
For the men in your life who haven’t tried Bombas, let us just say: it’s time. These gift sets include four pairs of dress socks. Yes, we know socks are historically “boring” gifts, but we promise that these aren’t. ($78)
It’s called the “World Coffee Tour”…need we say more? Keep your BFF in beans for the better part of 2024. And if you’re lucky, maybe they’ll invite you over for a cup. ($94)
For the book lover in your life. All of the bestsellers from “BookTok” that went viral on TikTok in 2023, packaged up in an adorable boxed set. Millions of eager readers can’t be wrong. ($47.96)
Some of the HerMoney team says if you haven’t tried Graeter’s ice cream, you haven’t lived. Their “Happy Holidays Gift Selection” includes 6 seasonal favorites, including Eggnog, Peppermint Stick, Cinnamon and ohers. They’re delivered right to your recipient’s door, dry ice and all. ($79.95)
Now, some socks for the ladies, too. Barefoot Dreams is known for their blankets…but did you know they make apparel too? Enter these socks, which will envelope your tired feet in their signature softness. Treat your loved one (or treat yo-self) to some cozy comfort. ($58)
Here at HerMoney, we have our fair share of Stanley stans. This gift set features not one, but two 20oz tumblers for just $50. Give the set to a friend, or, keep one for yourself (we won’t tell). ($50)
A cult favorite for years, Smith’s Rosebud Salve is used for everything from soothing chapped lips to taming flyaways. This gift set from Anthropologie includes three squeezable tubes of their product. Scents include Strawberry, Original Rose and Mocha Rose. ($16)
What’s better than a pasta dinner? Three pasta dinners (and don’t forget the bottle of red). This gift box from Eataly includes all you need to prep three of Italy’s “most iconic regional pasta dishes.” ($74.90)
For the gal who knows wearing sunscreen is a non-negotiable. This kit from Supergoop includes water and sweat resistant sunscreen products for face, body and lips. It also includes a travel bag, with plenty of room for your other essentials. ($50) PS, check out Supergoop CEO Amanda Baldwin’s recent appearance on the How She Does It podcast, here.
ICYMI, claw clips are having a moment. (Yes, unfortunately for those of us who already lived through it, the 90s are having a moment… But there’s a whole new generation of gals who haven’t yet waded across campus in soaking wet bell bottoms. Godspeed.) This set from Scuni features 6 clips of varying sizes. Plus, it’s only $10! ($10)
