It's more of an idea, not a specific thing, but I love thoughtful gifts more than any material thing anyone could ever get me, and as you guys know, I lost my cat a couple months ago and he was everything to me, my literal soulmate, so for my birthday, my boyfriend got me this necklace. It has a photo of him engraved on there, and then on the back it says love you forever.
It's literally my most prized possession, I love it so much, and I want to say he got it off Amazon, but I would have to ask him for the link for it. (2:33) Now I have my Nugget on my neck at all times, and I literally cried when I opened it. It's the most special gift ever.
On that same topic, after I lost my cat, my grandma took my favourite photo of Nugget and made me a pillow with his name on it, and it's on our bed at all times, I sleep with it every night. I also sobbed when I opened this. Just something thoughtful like this is the best gift you could ever ask for, I think.
My sister got us pillows with our mom after she passed. I spray them with her perfume and squeeze them whenever I need a hug.
Lola blankets. I feel like everybody who makes these videos always mentions these, they really are that amazing. They have so many different colours, patterns. Whether it's for you or someone else, I feel like it is the perfect Christmas gift because who doesn't like a comfortable blanket?
High quality pots and pans. This is literally something they could end up keeping for 20 plus years if you invest in a good piece.
I think a better answer would be high-quality NC headphones... Not necessarily Bose because I know that their prices are way more premium than others. An Anker Space Q45 has excellent noise-cancelling and costs under $100 (tho plastic quality is slightly questionable. Just don't use it as a hammer).
Jewelry boxes. This one is from Heaven Mayhem and it doubles up as a coffee table book which I think is a genius idea.
I have a Philips hue (thrifted) and it is amazing for what I paid (10% of retail) but what does an idea light have to do with it?
A Dyson, of course. I think I've had this one for like three years. I really don't know what I would do if I didn't have it. I think it's so much more convenient as opposed to buying a bunch of different hair curlers and straighteners.
I wouldn't sink that much money into something without being able to test it first.
Kodak digital camera, so many of my friends have this and I was finally influenced to buy it for myself. I bought this for myself for my birthday, but I keep it in my purse, carry it with me at all times. I feel like the quality is so good, it's not as cheap as the digital camera that I had, but the quality is so much better, and it's not G7X expensive, I think I bought it for $130 off Amazon. I love it, it's something I use every day.
Do the pictures go onto the computer easily though? The last digital camera I bought was so frustrating, it took five or six steps to put each and every picture onto your computer. It was horrible. Every digital thing is getting worse and worse and worse.
I feel like teacups and mugs are a very common gift but you can shake it up with the design like this modern silverware set.
Weighted eye mask. I have never slept better than when I'm wearing this.
Free people fleece jackets. I swear they have the cutest most comfortable fleece jackets and pretty much in every color. They are on the pricier side, but I really do believe they're worth every penny because I've been wearing them for over a year. They hold up great and they're just so cute and comfortable.
You cannot go wrong with a little marble trinket tray. They look so chic in your bathroom, on your bedside table.
The Babelash eyelash serum. My holy grail product and it works so well. You definitely have to be really consistent with it. Compared to other eyelash serums, I think it's the best one.
Blue light glasses, which I am wearing right now. These specific ones are from Warby Parker. If you don't know what blue light glasses are basically they help protect your eyes from the blue light from your screen. So I wear them when I'm editing videos at nighttime, watching TV. It could be a good gift for the guys as well.
The blue light from your screen is no different than any other blue light. Meanwhile you are depriving yourself of the benefits of blue light Health benefits of blue light "Exposure to blue light provides several important health benefits. It can: help you stay alert boost memory and cognitive function potentially improve seasonal depression help with some skin conditions" (Healthline. et al.)
The hydra jug. I am a ride or die hydra jug fan. I have been using them since Stanley's was still the big thing. Okay, don't get me wrong, Stanley's are great, but I love the hydra because of obviously the spill proof straw - you could drop it toss it in a bag, in your car, in your purse and it will never spill.
get the 2-gallon / 8 liter version. Comes in handy when you cross the Empty Quarter in Oman
These eye patches. These are my two favourite brands. We have the Luxe unfiltered and the topicals. Both of these are amazing. I myself really struggle with being puffy when I wake up. The luxe unfiltered ones definitely bring down the puffiness more but overall I love both of them and they both do work.
A good perfume.
I bought this for myself for my birthday, but I had gotten a Sephora package and they put in little perfume samples, and this was the best thing I had ever smelled. I immediately ordered a full-size bottle, and actually the other day, my coworker walked past me and I said, "oh my gosh, what are you wearing? You smell so good. And she told me, Paradox Prada. That's the perfume I wear. So I said, "you're telling me this is what I smell like?"
They don't make good perfume anymore. It all fades in two seconds now. Never wasting my money the c**p they make now
It makes drinking water fun. This is truly a low point, even for BP.
The Aritzia sweatsets. I have the Rich Mocha Brown one. Once I bought my first sweatset, I couldn't go back. The sweatpants are literally the best sweatpants I've ever put on my body.
Eberjey PJs. These are another pricier item, but I have never been so obsessed with a pair of pyjamas. We all know and love matching pyjamas, but these ones I swear. I don't know what they're made of or how they're so much more silkier, softer than others. They are so comfortable.
Pyjamas are the worst. It's like being wound up in a boa constrictor.
The Aritzia workout set. The best way to describe this - it's like butter. They're very comfortable to both workout and lounge in, they also have so many different colour options.
If you have a friend that is a card lover, Heaven Mayhem have these really cute card sets and it comes in really nice packaging. It would look really great on a coffee table.
A classic jewelry box, but it's such a stunning design it would look beautiful wherever they decide to keep it.
This seems to be a bunch of clips from an influencer who is stuck 1980's. Some of the references were even outdated. I couldn't participate in the poll because there is nothing on the list I would like and most of the items are somewhat insulting. I mean seriously, how stupid do you think I am?
Adult women selling cosmetics and clothes to pre-teen girls. That's all this is.
