In case you didn’t know, we share inspired shopping finds every day over in our must-read morning newsletter, Girlboss Daily. (Ahem, are you signed up yet?) So, for this gift guide, we pulled a year’s worth of data on the most-clicked and best-selling products that were hand-selected by the Girlboss team. From a jaw-dropping pair of hoops to a high-tech skincare tool and winter-proof jackets, these staff picks will win you “best gift giver” status for even the pickiest people on your list (sorry, Aunt Sue!). Did we basically just save Christmas? Perhaps.
The Scent That Does the Flirting for You
Phlur Vanilla Skin Eau de Parfum
“Your flirting game could be a 10/10, but if you smell irresistible? Baby, you don’t have to say a word. There is nothing sexier than a signature scent that makes a hottie want to lean in closer. This intoxicatingly sensual juice from Phlur has a heavenly vanilla base that you know and love but is elevated with notes of pink pepper, sugar crystals, rich cashmere, and cozy sandalwood. ‘It’s developed to have a longer wear time that leaves a lingering, delectable trail in your wake,’ according to the website. Spritz responsibly.” — Victoria, executive editor

The Earrings I Haven’t Stopped Wearing
“You know what earring style doesn’t get enough love? Huggies. They always get overshadowed by their more popular older sister: hoops. But today, I’m writing a mini love letter to these preciously petite bbs from Mejuri that I’ve worn every single day since they arrived in the mail (almost two weeks now!). I love the chunky, pillowy look and how the clicker closure snaps shut for a secure and comfortable feel. As with all Mejuri pieces, these huggies are such good quality (unlike the cheap $10 hoops I’ve fallen for in the past). The gold vermeil gives off the same look as 18K gold (but for a lot less $$$). They also come in sterling silver for $68 if you’re more of a silver gal. Best purchase of the year already!” — Victoria

Whether you’re horizontal on the couch watching the latest cheesy Netflix holiday movie or answering emails from 30,000 feet, you need tech accessories that work as hard as you. Exhibit A: this magnetic iPad case, which snaps into nine different angles—six for viewing, three for writing—and comes with an ultra-stable stand (think wide support brackets that magnetically lock into the base, even when it’s balancing on your lap). And if your iPad takes a tumble? No stress. This sturdy case delivers 360° protection. Now the only thing left to debate is which of the eight colors you’re going with.*

The Movie-Night Upgrade
Cheerie Lane Flavor Variety 5-Pack
“Cheerie Lane has become my new go-to when I have a popcorn craving and want my at-home movie night to feel a little extra special because it takes all the measuring and guesswork out. All you have to do is toss it in a pot and pop! Plus, they use heirloom kernels, cacao butter, and fresh herbs and spices that are all perfectly portioned out and packaged as an adorable corn-shaped pod; it seriously feels so elevated. I plan on giving these to my friends as hostess gifts. I have a feeling they will be as obsessed as I am.” — Lara, contributing writer
The Jacket Everyone’s Wearing
“Wondering what the fall jacket of the season was? Vintage-style barn jackets. This one from Uniqlo comes in five different colors and features a cozy corduroy collar and relaxed silhouette (perfect for layering over chunky knits). It’s a subtle nod to the workwear trend that won’t go out of style by next season. Plus, it has practical utility pockets that will easily fit your phone, lip gloss, and even your sunnies. Not bad for $70.” — Lara
The Satisfying Pore Unclogger
Caudalie Pore Minimizing Instant Detox Mask
“Whenever I accidentally fall asleep without washing my face (or God forbid, with my makeup on), I always slather on this Caudalie clay mask in the morning for a mini skin detox. After just 10 minutes, the hydrating formula (made from pink clay, upcycled grapes, and natural caffeine) hardens, and you can literally see every single pore getting unclogged and tightened. It’s so satisfying! I wash it off with a warm face towel, and my skin is noticeably brighter looking and feels baby-soft. For my instant gratification girlies, you’ll love how quick the results are. Bonus points: The packaging is fully recyclable.” — Victoria
The Glassware That’s Too Damn Cute
Anthropologie Icon Juice Glass
“Okay, I have a confession: I can’t stop buying these. It’s like an addiction. These Icon Juice Glasses from Anthropologie are so freaking cute, I’ve officially replaced every single drinking glass in my apartment with them. They’re perfect for iced drinks (I’m always snapping photos of my iced coffees and matchas for Instagram), and honestly, they elevate everything. The delicate, pressed bead design makes my drinks look like they belong in a café, and I'm such a sucker for aesthetics, so these are everything to me.” — Cheska, social media specialist

The Cool-Girl Tinned Fish
Fishwife Albacore Tuna in Spicy Olive Oil
“One of the many reasons I adore tinned fish? No cooking required! My current hyperfixation is this Fishwife Albacore Tuna in Spicy Olive Oil, which I’ve been slapping on everything from salads to sandwiches because it’s so tasty, packed with protein, and means I don’t have to turn on my stove. Over the weekend, I actually mixed it together with some Kewpie mayo, Sriracha, green onions, and furikake, and then I made onigiri with it! It was sooo damn good, I might just have to make it for lunch again today.” — Lara

The Slick-Back Savior
Dae Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 Styling Cream
“TikTok made me buy this Dae styling cream! I’ve been influenced by my fave blonde slick-back queens @emiliekiser and @lindsey_teaches, and, surprise to no one, it lives up to all of the social media hype. Not only does the dreamy, creamy formula tame flyaways and create a smooth look for a clean-girl bun, but it also works as a pre-blowout treatment and defines natural curls. I also need to take a second to talk about the scent—it’s citrusy, sweet, and seriously addictive. Is it totally disgusting that I actually look forward to greasy hair days now?” — Victoria

The Delightful Squishy Candy
“Mochi is one of my all-time favorite desserts, so my curiosity piqued when I came across these squishy mochi gummy candies. They come in so many fun flavors (mango, yuzu, and green grape, to name a few), and the candy has the perfect bouncy bite that I crave. Plus, I love that it’s an Asian woman-owned business that uses simple ingredients and natural flavors.” — Lara

The Beginner-Friendly Face-Shaving Kit
“Last night, I treated myself to a facial at my go-to medi spa, and after seeing dozens (no, hundreds!) of TikToks of women dermaplaning their faces (it’s a special scalpel that gently removes peach fuzz and dead skin cells, and exfoliates the skin), I decided to finally do it. And guess what? My face has never felt softer. The girlies were right!!! Rest assured, though: your hair will not grow back thicker or darker. To keep up my baby-soft skin at home, I need to get my hands on beginner-friendly dermaplane razors—and this kit from Billie seems to be the safest, easiest, and best-reviewed option. Want to learn more about the woman who started Billie? Right this way.” — Victoria

The Nearly Indestructible Tights
Sheertex Black Classic Sheer Rip-Resist Tights
“The main reason why I don’t wear skirts or dresses in the winter is not because of the frigid temps (well, that too) but because I’m tired of constantly buying new pairs of tights. My nail gets caught one time and boom… it’s ripped. Another $13 down the drain. But not with these bbs. I finally decided to buy a few pairs of Sheertex tights because I’ve heard nothing but good things—and no surprise, they live up to the hype. They’re the most resilient sheer tights on the market, made from the world’s strongest polymers. Every pair comes with a 90-day no-rip, snag, or tear guarantee. Bless!” — Victoria

The New-and-Improved Lippie
Rhode Peptide Lip Tint in Lemontini
“I’m a huge fan of rhode’s skincare, but I’m not going to lie, when I first tried their Peptide Lip Tints and Treatments (my first ones were Ribbon and Watermelon Slice), it was pretty disappointing—the color was gorgeous, but I just couldn’t get over the graininess! So when I heard that they reformulated the product, I was excited to give it another try. I recently picked up the new Lemontini Peptide Lip Tint, and I’m obsessed! The scent is fresh and citrusy, the formula feels so much smoother, and the color is stunning. It has little speckles of gold that catch the light in the prettiest way! It has become my go-to, and I carry it with me everywhere (it’s attached to my phone case!).” — Cheska
The Spin-Friendly Sports Bra
Knix Momenta Racerback Sports Bra
“Confession time: every time I hop on a spin bike, I’m terrified that my n*pple is going to pop out. All of my sports bras were purchased during my yoga era, and with C/D cups, I had no right to be high-speed peddling in a low-impact, scoop-neck bra. I was going to give myself a black eye from t*tty whiplash. I recently snagged this full-coverage, medium-impact bra from Knix, and I feel so much more supported! I also love that it’s longer than most sports bras, and the mesh underband provides much-needed ventilation. There are also three other cute colors to choose from.” — Victoria

The Multitasking Mist
Naked Sundays Hydrating Glow Mist Setting Spray SPF50+
“This is a sunscreen, setting spray, and skin refresher all in one ultra-fine mist. It’s perfect for reapplying SPF throughout the day—especially over makeup—without ruining your look or dealing with that sticky, greasy feeling. It’s packed with skin-loving ingredients like kakadu plum (a superfood rich in vitamins C and E), hyaluronic acid (for hydration), and antioxidant-rich watermelon extract. The mist is super lightweight, leaves zero white cast, smells great, and won’t sting your eyes! Plus, it's small enough to keep in my purse for easy touch-ups!” — Kamela, content marketing manager

The Most Comfortable Crewnecks
GAP VintageSoft Wedge Crewneck Sweatshirt
“Because I WFH five days a week (a privilege!), I am constantly cycling through different combinations of crewnecks and leggings. (My chiffon blouses and tailored dress pants are collecting dust in my closet.) Over the weekend, I did a mini closet purge of my loungewear because some beloved pieces had holes, rips, and stubborn stains, or they were two sizes too small. Was I just doing it to make room for these colorful cotton-blend sweatshirts from GAP? Maybe. I love a good saturated shade—and I have my eye on the orange, hunter green, bright blue, and red. I can’t wait to debut my new crew on Zoom!” — Victoria
