An Instant Pot disguised as a nice practical gift for your love, but it’s secretly a gift for you too, because you’ll get to eat all the delicious food that they make in this ingenious gadget.

The Insta Pot with silver outside and black base and handles with an interface on the front


Amazon

It’s a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, sauté pan, yogurt maker, and food warmer all rolled into one nifty appliance. Plus, it comes with the stamp of approval from more than 140,000 5-star reviews (!!!!). Check out our full review of the Instant Pot!

Promising review: “I am a guy not too fond of cooking and cleaning up. I like working out and eating clean. I bought the 6-quart last weekend, and I can say my life is now on a different trajectory because of this product. Cooking and cleaning up is now a breeze. It cooks amazing foods. (I suggest getting a recipe book.) I can cook in large batches for the whole week without too much fuss. The best part is cleaning up. Due to the deep bowl, it doesn’t splatter everywhere when cooking. I use it to sauté a lot. It has replaced my electric stove and even my microwave. I just ordered the nonstick bowl for it as the food seems to stick to the stainless-steel bowl when searing or sautéing. It’s an amazing product.” —TK

Get it from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in four sizes and three styles).

A Revlon One-Stop Hair Dryer & Volumizer designed to be the gift that keeps on giving — great hair for 365 days a year. They’ll be so thankful they can finally try the mind-~blowing~ device they’ve seen alllll over their TikTok For You page.


amazon.com, Amazon

This brush has hype with more than 95,000 (!!!) 5-star reviews, and it really does live up to it. The oval brush design smooths the hair and the round edges create volume — leaving you with a salon-worthy blowout at home. It also has two heat and speed settings and a cool option.

Promising review: “I love this hair dryer!! I bought it because I broke my shoulder and only have the use of one arm. Before my shoulder was broken, I used a very expensive hairdryer and the best brushes. This hair dryer works better than all of my high-end products. I’ll never go back. The brush is big and I was concerned that it would be too much for my short hair. It will work great on any length of hair. The bristles grab even the shortest hair and dry it smooth and soft. My hair is naturally curly and before trying this dryer, I’d dry my hair, straighten it and then use hot rollers. I am now achieving the same results with the Revlon dryer. I haven’t written a review on a product in years but needed to share my experience with this dryer. It’s worth every penny!” —M J

Promising review: “I have 4C African American kinky-coily hair. This dryer cuts my drying and straightening time to just 20-25 minutes! I part my hair in 4 sections, apply my heat protectant, and use this dryer and in no time my hair is straightened! This hairdryer is comfortable and practical to use. Highly recommend for Black or textured hair!” —Lisa

Get it from Amazon for $41.99+ (available in five colors).

A Slip silk pillowcase here to make sleep feel even more like a ~dream~, especially when they wake up with frizz-free hair. (Not to mention their skin looking great too!)

Model hugging a pillow with the silk pillowcase on it in black


Slip

The pillowcase is made from 100% silk, which is less absorbent than other fibers. This means that all those products you put on your skin and in your hair stay where they belong. Plus, silk reduces friction, causing less pulling on both your hair and skin — leaving both looking and feeling better when you wake up in the morning.

Promising review: “This is an investment, and it is so worth it. I have curly frizzy hair, and this has been a lifesaver. I actually wake up with my curls looking okay. The pillowcase is soft and no doubt good for my skin. You do have to hand wash it, which isn’t too difficult and it dries super quick too.” —Peanut13

Get it from Nordstrom for $89+ (available in two sizes and in eight colors) or from Amazon for $89 (available in two sizes and 12 colors) or a similar style from Amazon for $20.98 (for a set of two; available in four sizes and 14 colors).

A box filled with farm-fresh flowers that also doubles as a fun activity, because your partner gets to use their creativity to build their own arrangement of beautiful blooms and display them all over their home.

A bouquet of fresh flowers in white and pink in a black vase


Postal Petals

Postal Petals works directly with farmers to handpick fresh stems that are shipped out within 36 hours of harvest. This Black woman-owned small business ships to all 48 states (and parts of Alaska, but sadly not Hawaii right now). The Beanie Box is the smallest size, but you get six to eight bundles of flowers in the box. With this, you can make either one large or two medium arrangements. You can select your theme of flowers from a selection of six or just have it be a surprise. Plus, check out to see what’s in bloom right now and the featured flowers in the box currently.

Promising review: “I had never received flowers by mail, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I received my Beanie Box on time, and I could not believe how many flowers I received for the price that I paid. I was able to make several full arrangements. The flowers were beautiful and smelled AMAZING. I’ll definitely order again!” —Tennille Wright

Get the Beanie Box from Postal Petals for $89 (available in seven styles).

A soft sided carry-on suitcase built to be spacious enough to fit their essentials while still being about to fit under a plane seat or without taking up the whole trunk of a car for your next adventure together (and the adventure after that). Plus, it has two wheels *and* a trolly sleeve so they’ll never have to weigh down their shoulder to carry it. Oh, the luxury!


Calpak

Promising review: “This bag has definitely exceeded my expectations. It’s far more spacious than the photos do justice and it’s super convenient to slip it over the handle of my suitcase to roll as one. Also, as a person that travels frequently and hates to check bags, this has solved that problem for me on longer trips because every airline allows you one carry-on (suitcase) and one personal item (which used to be a book bag for me and I’ve now replaced it with this Calpak)! I can fit my dopp kit, a pair of shoes, one outfit, my laptop(!!), and other miscellaneous items. It’s been an unexpected game-changer for my travels when I bought it only expecting to be used once!” —TAYLORK

Get it from Nordstrom Rack for $69.97 (originally $98; available in three colors).

Promising review: “I have had these for a while now, and they still look brand new. They have not tarnished. I was worried that it was just a chain, and it would feel weird in my ears, but it’s actually really comfortable. Sometimes I forget I have them on. I like that they are simple but still can look dressy to wear to dinner.” —Mila

A collection of teas from around the world so your ~cu-tea~ can enjoy different flavors of tea. When the days are short and cold, there’s nothing like a delicious hot cup of tea to warm their spirit (after a snuggle from you, obv).

The ten thin tubes of tea with green labels saying what the kinds of tea are


UncommonGoods

The collection has ten tubes of single-estate teas from around the world. Each one has enough to brew a 6- to-8-cup pot. Plus, it comes with a booklet with information on all the teas plus brewing tips.

Promising review: “I received this set as a Hanukkah gift from my parents, and so far, it has been a real delight. Each tube comes full of a different type of tea, unique in its characteristics, and not ones that I would normally have picked out for myself. With the help of the guide book, I have prepared several pots of the most delicious tea for myself and my roommates (because as everyone knows, tea is best when shared). Each tube contains enough tea for more than one (small-ish) pot, so I look forward to experiencing each one again. In all, I would heartily recommend this product to anyone looking for a lovely, relaxing, and heartwarming experience or gift.” —thesongfactory

Promising review: “My boyfriend and I aren’t in an LDR, but we both suffer from anxiety and let me tell you, these bracelets were practically made for our relationship! I get very busy, I don’t really use my phone so I don’t text a lot. The bracelets really help in those moments when I don’t want to text, or when I really need his hugs and support. It’s the closest thing I have to feeling his touch. He’s going to Peru soon, so for a while we will be LDR! These bracelets will definitely be a lifesaver when that happens.” —KittyKen

Model wearing the circular stud earrings with different colored stones and flowers


J. Crew

Promising review: “I love these earrings! I originally purchased the crystal to be able to wear with multiple outfits, but I caved and also purchased the multi-color pair as well.

A smart wallet with a quick card access mechanism, RFID blocking, and a tracker to keep the valuables they take with them safe and protected, even if they’ll be a bit peeved if they accidentally leave their wallet in an Uber…again.

The rectangle-shaped wallet in light brown leather in a model's hand with cards coming out of the top and the card-shaped tracker in the other hand


Ekster Wallets / Via instagram.com

The wallet fans out cards with a click of a button — making it super easy to grab the card they want in seconds. Plus, the RFID blocking helps protect against skimming, and the tracker makes sure it’s never lost for long.

Promising review: “This is truly a unique and extremely high-quality wallet that takes into account how we really use this everyday necessity. The push-button reveal of credit cards not only makes access easy but keeping the cards fanned till you return them to your wallet makes it almost impossible to forget your card and with the tracker, you won’t leave your Ekster behind either. I’m a wallet freak who’s not easy to please… and I’m in heaven.” —Sam Egan

Get it from Ekster for $71 (originally $89; available in six colors).

Glossier

The set includes the Milk Jelly Cleanser, Priming Moisturizer, and Balm Dotcom skin salve (available in eight scents).

Promising review: “OMG — this set is a lifesaver.

I have combo skin, leaning toward oily, and this stuff makes my skin look and feel amazing. Love it!” —Kels

A pair of faux fur slippers actually lined with microfleece fabric (that absorbs any moisture *cough, cough* sweat) to keep their feet at a consistent cozy temperature all day and ward off any ~cold feet~. Plus, with the multi-layer memory-foam footbed, they’ll feel like they’re walking on little soft clouds.

Model wearing the slippers with brown bottoms and white fuzzy shearling fabric on the top and sides


Acorn Footwear / Via instagram.com

Promising review: “Like most of us, I’ve had many different types of slippers, almost all of which I liked. But I no longer want my feet in ‘sweat boxes’ that I constantly have to kick off to cool my feet down. I want a comfy, casual, cool-looking slipper that not only keeps my feet warm, but are comfortable to wear around the house with a decent support. And this pair of Acorns fits that bill and then some. I can go to the mail box, walk around the yard, vacuum the floors, and never do my feet overheat. They’re soft yet sturdy, and have a similar look to deck shoes. They’re very comfortable. Looks like I’m going to want another pair soon, they’re so pretty I just love them.” —MonaD

Get them from Amazon for $44.95+ (available in women’s sizes 5-12 and 23 colors and patterns).

A Waterpik water flosser, which may seem like a not-so-romantic gift to some, but most will really appreciate something practical that lasts so much longer than flowers *and* will get their dentist off their case about flossing at their next visit.

The pik with a cord wrapped up and sitting in its base with a container to fill with water


Amazon

It uses water to remove 99.9 percent of plaque and is 50 percent more effective than flossing for your gums. It features 10 pressure settings and a timer to keep track of flossing time.

Promising review: “I love this product. It makes your mouth feel so clean. After using it for several weeks, I noticed several things: no more bad breath, no more bad taste in my mouth, my gums are much healthier, no more bleeding, and my teeth are less sensitive at the gum line. This is, by far, one of the best buys I’ve made this year. This Waterpik has two settings and variable pressure, which is great. The pressure setting goes from very light to heavy pressure on a scale of 1–10. Start out on mild setting and work up to a level of comfort. It has a gum massage setting that is wonderful for sore gums or for a person who grinds their teeth. It’s very soothing. There are a variety of tips, such as for plaque or deep pockets, which are worth looking at and buying if they fit your needs. I highly recommend for folks with a lot of crowns, receding gum lines, pockets, or if you are not great at flossing due to bleeding or teeth so close that it’s difficult to floss. It is a good size so storing it is a problem in my very small bathroom, but I don’t care. Other issues — well, there is a learning curve in using it. Everyone I have talked to, who has one, has asked me if I have shot water across the bathroom and the answer is yes. My cat flees the bathroom as soon as I turn on the Waterpik now. So use only warm water until you get the hang of it. I wholeheartedly recommend this product. I like it so much that I’m buying the portable one for travel, and it’s on my Christmas list for family and friends.” —JS

Get it from Amazon for $69.74 (available in two styles and five colors).

An acrylic Squatty Potty your S.O. might think is a slightly strange Valentine’s gift until they put it to use and realize that this thing ~clearly~ helps them go number two. And you’ll be the ~number one~ person in their life for helping them achieve that.

The clear step stool with a rounded side against a toilet


Amazon

Promising review: “This thing is SLEEK! I bought this for my new home’s main floor guest bath. We wanted to provide guests with the convenience of ‘squat pot’ without the eyesore of the white 7-inch one. I feel like if Kim and Kanye had a Squatty Potty, it would be this one. I find it’s shaped SLIGHTLY different than my white 7-inch one, and I like that. I also find no squeaking noise as I pull or push it from the basin of the toilet, unlike my white one. My guests didn’t notice it was there until I pointed it out. Go with the ghost acrylic, you won’t regret it!” —Durga D

Hand holding the thin rectangle-shaped charger with a cord connecting to a phone, showing that it's charging


Amazon

It weighs about the same as a can of soup yet will charge the iPhone 8 almost seven times, the Galaxy S8 five times, or the iPad mini 4 twice.

Promising review: “I’ve had the PowerCore 20100 for a couple of months now, and I love it! It is a wonderful, portable charger that even inspired my wife to pick up an Anker charger. I’ve charged both my wife’s and my iPhone X simultaneously, was able to get a pretty good charge on an iPad Pro, charged my Apple Watch, and even my Bose QuietComfort headphones (obviously, not all at the same time, there are only two ports). The two ports are very convenient, especially when I have to carry my personal cell phone as well as a cell phone for work.” —Joshua N Nichols

Promising review: “I am thrilled to have found this. I needed a replacement for a different very expensive bag that I finally got fed up with for various reasons. This is just what you want in a bag! It’s a roomy tote with a top zipper to keep things private (something I needed), and it looks so much more expensive than it is.” —Amazon Customer

A pair of truffle-based sauces, or in other words the only two sauces that’ll they need in their life to add flavor to any kind of food they eat — from french fries to pizza (yes, pizza) and more. If their love language is sauces (like mine is), they’ll def appreciate this super nice set.

Plus, it’s dishwasher-safe on the top rack.

Promising review: “This aerator works well, does not take up too much space, is not fragile, and is easy to clean. The screen filters out sediment or that occasional piece of cork. It’s also very good for an inexpensive weeknight bottle of red. We think it makes a $10 bottle of wine taste like a $15 bottle and so on…” —SuSu2

The Adventure Challenge: Couples Edition — a book filled with scratch-off date items to ~spice~ things up, no matter what stage of the relationship you’re in.

The book with a photo of a happy couple


The Adventure Challenge

The book is filled with 50 date ideas that are only revealed once you scratch it off. Some of the dates included are to cook an apple pie blindfolded, recreate your grandparents’ first date, or even paint a masterpiece on a unique canvas. Plus, there’s a space to write about the experience *and* place a photo of the two of you doing the activity together. Then when it’s complete, you can look back on all the great times you had. How sweet is that?

Promising review: “I got this for my boyfriend as a present for us to have adventures as a couple and also to enjoy time with each other in creative ways. We are going into our third challenge/date, and so far we’ve loved it! It has enough information for us to choose which adventure we want without knowing what exactly we’re getting ourselves into. The book offers various sections such as baking, double dates, expensive, and inexpensive dates, etc. The book itself is very quality. I would recommend buying a retro camera or retro printer because ordinary pictures will not fit on the page. Overall, I’m very happy with our product and looking forward to finishing every challenge in the book. ” —Angela

Amazon

Promising review: “Instant cameras are making a comeback and the Instax is a great little camera to buy. Great for parties, weddings, and other social occasions. I’ve bought this as a gift for parents and friends. The novelty of it is a lot of fun! Easy to load and start using right away. It’ll give you the lo-fi, saturated, vintage look people try to accomplish through filters on Instagram at the click of a button. Polaroid has even brought back their one-step design but for the price, Instax is the way to go.” —Evahnsan

Not only is it size-adjustable to accommodate different tubs, it comes equipped with a wineglass holder, edges that safely prop up a book or tablet, a candle holder, and extra space for whatever else their cozy heart desires.

Promising review: “When I placed my order for this tray I looked at the pics but did not realize how really cool this piece is. The ability to change the size is great, but I just love the different trays that are removable as well as the ability to put my phone and a Kindle in ‘safe’ areas of the tray. I found a perfect place for my TV remote should I want to watch TV and not read. I just got it and used it last night but it appears to be well-made, balanced, and offers versatility for the things you may want at your fingertips when taking a luxurious bath!” —SindiMcG

It also comes with four stainless-steel knives, two ceramic sauce bowls, two white markers, two black slate labels, four small forks, one wine opener, and a cheese board.

Promising review: “I bought this for my best friend as a gift to celebrate her moving to a new house. She loves it!!!! She was surprised with how great the quality is and how much room it has to decorate with all the food. The additional fruit tray definitely helps with holding extra fruits to serve a larger party. Besides that, it’s also extremely easy to clean since all the drawers are removable. Everyone was so amazed and wants to get one after the party. I had recommended to all of them, and I’m getting one for myself too!” —Yu-Chieh Lee

Promising review: “I have a $120 faux-fur throw, and this one is so much better! I was concerned the lining would be rough, but it is super soft.

A pair of pair of wireless earbuds to ~cancel~ the noise around them so they can actually listen to their music. If you’ve spent a good chunk of the past year in the same small apartment together, you’ll know the importance of some good peace and quiet to keep the peace in the relationship. These true wireless earbuds have soft silicone ear tips, so they won’t fall out of their ears in the middle of a song (or even a phone call).


Amazon

Not only does the design of the earbuds help balance bass for a natural and authentic sound, but the charging case and earbuds have a combined 24-hour battery life. The earbuds work for 6.5 hours on a single charge. You can even select a quick charge function where you get three hours of use in only 15 minutes. The earbuds also come with three additional pairs of ear tips in different sizes.

Promising review: “I am in the Esports industry, so I’ve tried my fair share of headphones and earbuds — and these are not only comfy, but they are also some of the best quality earbuds (let alone the fact that they are wireless) that I’ve ever worn/used. The battery life is great and on top of that, the charging case gives me a full-day security of being able to listen nonstop to music/phone calls without having to worry that they’ll die. I’ve tested the 15-minute fast charge and it works incredible. I am beyond impressed. The music quality is top-notch and the volume is so impressive that I couldn’t even get it to full volume. I also love that I can use them ONE earbud at a time. This means I can have more comfortable listening options and more accessible phone calls. Already planning on buying these as gifts, I would recommend them to everyone.” —Don Goode

Get them from Amazon for $79.99+ (available in four colors).

A beard wrangler mini crate filled with gentle products to help them care for and maintain those luscious face locks you love to love (or love to hate, no judgment) so much.

The three products, towel, and a brush and the wood crate that they all come in


Man Crates

All the Renegade products in the crate are handcrafted in the US with 100% natural organic oils and seeds. It includes:

-beard shampoo

-beard balm

-grooming oil

-boar-bristle beard brush

-hand towel

Promising review: “I bought the mini create for hubby as a gift. He was so curious since the packaging was interesting enough that I didn’t have to wrap it. I tied a bow around it and stuck it under the tree. After he used the crowbar to open the wooden box (which he thoroughly enjoyed in itself, and was worth every $ watching him do so) 😂 He immediately started using it every day. He stores it right in the box it shipped in and comments about how much he loves the product. He spends more time in the bathroom than I do now, and he’s already asking how to get the refills! He had a lot of trouble training his beard to grow one direction and this stuff just works, no other words for it — it just works and works well!” —Candice

Promising review: “I ginally bought one for myself, and I love it! Even in the Arizona heat, it keeps the wine cold outdoors. It’s a great alternative to having to use a bucket or got back to the fridge/freezer. It’s a great gift for a wine lover, and Vinglace boxing is very classy.” — Stagg

We’re looking forward to making another batch.” —Pete

Amazon

Promising review: “I got this for my dad for Christmas. He LOVES it. He kept saying he couldn’t believe I found one (a record player) because he’d been seeing vinyls popping up in stores everywhere but couldn’t find a player. It’s easy for him to fold up and put away when the grandkids come over. He also liked that he can hook it up to his phone and listen to Pandora. AND it’s loud enough that he can play it in his bedroom and hear it in the kitchen.” —Pennie Sims

Animalist

I fell in love with these posters last year and actually got one a couple of months ago. It arrived SO fast after I placed the order, like in days. And the style is so simple yet chic. I customized the breed, design, and color, but you can also change the orientation and add text (it’s super easy to do after you click on the link. They have all the options there to pick from). I did it based on my English Lab who sadly passed last spring. I gave it to my mom, and she had it framed and hung in our entryway as a nice subtle reminder of our favorite girl. It makes me smile every time I walk past it.

Get it from Animalist for $67+ (available in three sizes).
