Shop now at Amazon From Amazon For those who are passionate about wine, and don’t want to waste a single drop from an expensive bottle, this is the perfect gift. The Coravin Model Two wine opening system lets you pour a glass of wine from any bottle, without pulling the cork. A special needle punctures the cork, allowing wine to escape without causing permanent cork damage. After removing the needle, the cork essentially re-seals. This preserves wine for longer. Argon gas, an inert gas used in the wine-making process, also helps to protect the remaining wine from oxidation.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon If you’ve never used a mandoline in the kitchen, it can do a myriad of things that will improve the quality of your cooking as well as your presentation. The downside is that they’re often dangerous as heck – subjecting culinary creatives to some seriously dangerous cuts. Not any more. The smart folks at DASH have created this awesome safe slice mandoline.
Your fingers never touch the blades, which is amazing, but this versatile kitchen tool also gives you 30 different cutting options. Your stir fry dishes will cook perfectly. Your veggie trays will look amazing. And you, or anyone you give this too, will look like a total kitchen pro. Grab it in three fun kitchen colors, green, gray, or aqua.
If you’re looking for other fun kitchen ideas that offer quality, affordability, and supremely fun functionality, the DASH 8-Inch Waffle maker, and the adorably cute mini-waffler are awesome gifts for everyone on your list.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Dyson has already revolutionized her vacuum, and now she can use a Dyson product to style her hair. While it carries a premium price tag (like most Dyson products), this hairdryer is worth every penny. That being said, it is quite expensive, and one could likely get results that are just as nice from a less expensive professional hairdryer like the BaBylissPRO Tourmaline Titanium 3000 Dryer.
However, for the woman who wants to have the very latest and greatest in appliances, a Dyson dryer will definitely give her gorgeous shiny locks, with less frizz and more cult definition than others. And perhaps if you want some more choices, check out our recommendations for the best professional blow dryers.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Let’s be honest here. Women over 50 sleep hot. They can’t help it. While their hormones may be causing havoc, you can help them have sweeter slumber with this breathable nightie made from bamboo viscose. This amazing fabric keeps them cool and comfy, so they’ll get better sleep and wake up feeling refreshed. This nightgown is made from a stretchy blend of 95 percent bamboo viscose, and five percent spandex, so no matter which way they turn in their sleep it will move with them.
While we love bamboo pajamas for any woman, if you’re shopping for an intimate partner, consider giving her some equally comfortable bamboo panties.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Once the kids are gone, and quick fix simple family dinners are off the table, this wicked stainless steel pressure cooker is one of the perfect gifts for women over 50. It opens up a world of gourmet cooking, but only uses a fraction of the time to do it. Unlike an Instant Pot, this pressure cooker is a multi-tasker that can be used to cook, can, steam, deep fry and more.
Rated as the top choice by America’s Test Kitchen, this beauty can cook a six pound turkey breast or create the perfect pulled pork in just 25 minutes, with none of that fear of a steamy explosion like older models of days past. We’d definitely recommend the Pressure Cooker Perfection cookbook from America’s test kitchen to make this the perfect gift for your lady.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon What woman doesn’t want to look younger? Give her the gift of turning back the clock. In a clinical study, 80 percent of NuFACE users said their face felt more toned, and 73 percent of clinical study participants saw significant improvement in their skin tone. The mini device comes with a gel primer she can use on her face, but you can also use the device with the company’s collagen booster compound or anti-aging smoothing serum for even more enhanced results.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Sometimes finding the right gift for a woman comes down to a small gift, rather than a showy, flashy present. Shopping for the woman who owns nearly every Le Creuset kitchen item available? If her Le Creuset collections mostly spans cast iron gear, she may not have thought to purchase a stoneware honey pot for her kitchen. This cute little honey pot is ideal for the woman who loves a drizzle of honey in her tea or on her morning toast.
This honey container is designed to resist odors, staining, chipping, and cracking. It has a special opener for the honey dipper, which has an easy-to-clean silicone tip. The container is dishwasher safe for easy cleanup. To make this gift complete, pair it with a selection of rare and gourmet flavored honeys. We recommend this set of four types of honey from Bee Wild, which contains wildflower, sourwood, and tupelo honey.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon If there’s one thing we know for certain, it’s that getting older means your skin is less supple and beautiful. If you’ve got a woman who rarely splurges on self-care, she’s going to love the gift of the La Sirène beauty collagen supplement. This twice daily drinkable will have her skin and nails looking younger and feeling more supple in just a few weeks. Plus her hair will benefit too. Nice, right?
Since we lose collagen as we age, it’s hard to replenish it in a way that produces real results. This supplement relies on marine collagen which your body can easily absorb and puts it to work, stimulating your body’s own collagen and elastin production and delivering anti-aging effects.
Another supplement that’s a great self-care gift for women of a certain age is the Nature’s Bounty SkinElasticity Supplement. This formula features FloraGLO, a patented ingredient derived from marigolds. It’s a lutein formula that serves as a nourishing defense system to help promote her skin’s elasticity. (As an editor’s note, I take both of these and think they make a huge difference in the look and feel of my skin at 62!)

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Even if she already owns quite a few watches, this stylish smartwatch from Fossil will be a worthy addition to her collection. Women over 50 are more concerned about their health and fitness, and this pretty stainless steel watch comes in a flattering rose gold-tone. The bezel is studded with sparkly crystals, so it has an elegant look, but this watch does so much more.
With a customizable face, it features heart rate tracking, Google Pay(TM), GPS, rapid charging, smartphone notifications, touchscreen functionality, Google Assistant, microphone, music storage and controls, custom goal and alarm settings, and multiple time zones.
If she prefers less bling and likes her look a bit more subtle, this watch might be a perfect choice.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon What better gift idea for a busy person than one that can massage away their tension and muscle pain? This cool shiatsu neck massager is an awesome way to help your stressed executive, mom or dad relax, sleep better and feel relief within minutes. With eight deep tissue kneading nodes, this massager can do more than massage their neck and back. It can be used on any part of the body that hurts. To add to the comfort, it has infrared heating that increases blood circulation and relieves pain.
There are many different neck massagers available for pain and stress relief, so if this one isn’t quite right, there are many to choose from.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon When you want to impress in a classy way, get her a gift that encompasses art as well as purpose. That’s how we see this beautiful Star Magnolia candle from LAFCO. With essential oil based fragrances this candle will fill her space with the sweet scent of a spring day. The art part comes in because this candle is made in a beautiful hand-blown art glass vessel. The sophisticated shape and elegant color will ensure she keeps this gift, long after the candle has been burned through.
If you’re buying your lady a gift specifically for the holidays, we love this LAFCO three votive candle set with delicious holiday scents and especially beautiful candle glasses.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon If you’re shopping for a special gift for a lady who happens to love fresh cut flowers, she’s going to be nuts about the Amaranth Smart Vase. So much more than a pretty vase, this clever creation makes it easy to change the water and cut floral stems without messing up her arrangement. The top has a simple twist system that allows her to drain the water from the bottom every day and refill it with fresh. If she wants to snip stems, she can twist it again, to reveal the flower bottoms and trim them, again, while keeping her arrangement intact.
We were given one of these vases to test, and it’s on my dining table right now filled with blooming peonies. Because it’s so well weighted and sizeable, it can handle particularly large flowers and premade arrangments while staying nice and stable. Elegant to look at, it comes in five colors, each of which has a pretty diamond design on the exterior.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Want to get her a piece of jewelry that’s unique, as well as timeless? These upscale diamond accented pearl earrings have an eye-catching diamond above a creamy cultured freshwater pearl – perfect for the woman who likes to stand out. These earrings have a comfortable ear wire that secures so she’ll never lose them.
If you’re looking for something cool for your mom or grandmother that’s a bit more budget friendly, yet elegant too, these vintage looking pearl and cubic zirconia earrings are lovely.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Shopping for a decadent woman who puts a dollop of whipped cream on everything? This professional grade whipped cream canister makes it simple to whip up flavored whipped cream, as well as the traditional stuff. Simply place heavy cream or whipping cream.
This item also comes with three decorative tips, allowing you to customize the dollops on whipped cream on top of pies, cakes, ice cream, and much more. This tool is how the pros at coffee shops and high end restaurants make their whip cream, meaning that this gift will definitely appeal to a foodie.
Note that you should only use standard 8-gram N2O cartridges with this gadget when making whipped cream. If you use a similarly sized CO2 cartridge, the cream will actually turn sour on you. Standard 8-gram N2O cartridges aren’t included with the purchase of the dispenser, so make sure to pick up a couple on Amazon. We recommend this value pack of 50 standard 8-gram N2O cartridges. That may seem like a lot of cartridges, but you’ll go through them pretty fast, and you pay much less per unit when you buy in bulk.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon We love gifts with that retro appeal, and this vintage-style Victrola turntable has it in spades, but only the outside looks old. Inside, this cutie has all kinds of cool technology that makes it ideal for small spaces where your favorite woman wants big sound. Sure, it’ll play her vintage vinyl, as well as her CDs. Bluetooth enabled, it can also stream music from her devices from up to 33 feet away. Plus it has an AM/FM radio and stereo speakers, as well as a headphone jack.
If your lady happens to live in an older home and loves an even more vintage look, the Victrola Nostalgic Aviator Wood 8-in-1 Bluetooth Turntable Entertainment Center looks more like it came from the 30s rather than the 50s.
-
Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Julia Child’s classic two-volume set on Mastering the Art of French Cooking is a must-read for women of all ages.

Whether you’re shopping for someone who loves to cook, or someone who needs a lot of help in the kitchen, this is a thoughtful gift she can reference for decades to come.

Both the book and movie follow the story of a real-life woman who spent an entire year cooking her way through Mastering the Art of French Cooking, and both are quite funny. Pair all three items together, and you’ve got the ultimate gift pack for fans of Julia and French cooking.

This elegant perfume gift set is definitely meant for fans of flowers and botanicals, with top notes of jasmine, orange flower, rose, violet and lily. Powdery musk, amber, and a touch of patchouli round out the delicate scent. This is a floral, mature scent that works well for older women.

Under the seat, a detachable storage tote could hold her garden gloves, bypass pruners, and micro pruner, all of which would make excellent small gifts as well.

It’s also a great gift for the woman you plan to whisk away on a surprise vacation. These polka dot luggage sets are available in pink, blue, and black.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Give the woman in your life a beautiful way to toast to her amazingness. As you know, martinis are a delicate balance of tiny ice crystals and perfectly mixed ingredients. These hammered copper martini glasses will keep her drink cool and icy to the final drop. The ring is polished to a smooth sheen so it will always feel great against her lips, and we’d recommend you learn to make the ideal pink drink – a Cosmopolitan – to break them in since it’s such a festive looking option. Plus, cranberry juice is always festive, especially at the holidays, right?
You can also get her a set of hammered copper champagne flutes if you think a glass of bubbly would seem a better way to celebrate the holidays with her.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon For people with seasonal affective depression (SAD) winter’s waning daylight can cause a flurry of symptoms to descend and really create some havoc with a normally happy person. You can give the gift that will help to counteract dwindling daylight and keep the woman you love in her happy place. The Verilux Happy Light Lumi light therapy lamp is easy to integrate into any setting because it’s no larger than a tablet.
This dandy lamp mimics the sun indoors, helping to improve her mood, sleep, and overall well-being, all without harmful UV rays. The Lumi is great for giving her a morning energy burst or can help her avoid that after-lunch slump. With three light settings, she can customize the light therapy she needs for the results she wants.
SAD and other forms of depression are more prevalent in people from 45-64 according to the medical experts at Johns Hopkins Medicine. While Harvard Health says light therapy can be as effective in treating this form of depression as medication. If you’re shopping for someone who suffers from SAD, the Lumi is a thoughtful and healthful gift.

It’s ideal in a bedroom, or walk-in closet, but it’s such an elegant piece it could easily go in a parlor if she has one. You can get this fainting couch in either left or right side versions.
Fainting couches were a necessity for recovery, especially when Victorian women were often fainting from wearing such tight corsets, per this interesting tidbit of history from Elle Decor.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Speaking of cool, it wasn’t until we got the chance to try out this robot vacuum system from Shark that we thoroughly fell in love with it. It’s really awesome to have a robot vacuum, but not all can keep up with this wicked little cleaner.
It digs deep to remove dust, dirt and pet dander, but what we loved about our demo model was the HUGE dust bin, the largest of any we’ve used. It’s easier to open and empty than many we’re tried, including the iRobot Roomba. (My Roomba has been relegated to the closet.)
But what made us really swoon is that this vacuum is so smart, when it’s time to empty its dust bin it simply heads back to the charging station and does it without our lady lifting a finger! The emptying base holds up to 45 days worth of dirt and debris. This cleaning system features voice control and works with Alexa and Google Assistant.
Not sure if you can swing the price tag on this high-end vac? Get more recommendations from our guide to the best home robots and the best robot vacuum cleaners for pet hair.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Most women we know are dying to have that perfect grab and go jacket that is their go-to choice for a quick trip to the grocery or long flight across the country. Our pick for the best we’ve tried in ages is the Ably 100% cotton travel hoodie. Why would it make an ideal gift for your gal? After putting our sample through the rigors of rain, campfire smoke, and a ten-hour car ride, it stands up to the abuse we dished out.
Though this hoodie is made of pure cotton, it is Filium activated – an eco-friendly process that makes any natural fabric repel liquid, stains and resist odor without sacrificing softness or breathability. The coffee we spilled dribbled right off on our not so resistant car seat, and once home, this hoodie didn’t smell like it had been camping for four days. It’s a great gift for any woman who is constantly on the go and needs a cute hoodie that’s both fashionable and functional.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon When you’re looking for the perfect single serve coffee maker for a woman who truly appreciates a flavorful cup of Joe, the Keurig K Supreme Coffee Maker is the perfect morning companion – easy, quiet, and ho-so-efficient at filling her kitchen with rich coffee aroma.
This K-Supreme has a ton of advantages over some of Keurig’s other models. First of it’s sleek and a lot less bulky than the K-Classic or K-Select, and let’s just talk about the water reservoir – a MAJOR improvement. It holds up to 78 ounces of water, and it can be positioned either at the side or the back of the coffee maker. Super handly. Truly though, the best thing about it is the handle that makes it simple to remove, refill, and replace in seconds.
This coffee maker also lets her set her preferred brew temperature and strength and if she’s sharing the house with others, she can save her settings and there’s room for two more people to set their preferences as well. With 6, 8, 10, or 12-ounce brewing options, she can make the size her heart desires. New multi-stream technology makes every cup smell and taste absolutely amazing. And we don’t want to forget one other feature – she can adjust the strength and cup size, and use the “brew over ice setting” to make the perfect iced coffee drinks as well.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Because turning 50 can be somewhat confronting, you want to find your special lady a gift that not only celebrates her special day but perhaps has some deeper meaning that will speak to her soul. We think this stunning ring strikes just the right tone for her birthday. It features an emerald-cut deep pink tourmaline that’s a full half-carat set in 14k gold. The focal stone is set horizontally, which is super trendy this year, and it’s flanked on each side by two-channel set diamonds.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon Looking for a cool gift for a recent high school grad, a jetsetter, or possibly an engagement gift for some newlyweds? This cool map of the world is covered with a “scratch off” layer, allowing the recipient to mark all the countries, states, and provinces in the world that they have visited. There are a lot of similar maps out there on the interwebs. We picked this particular map design for a couple of reasons. Firstly, we like that the map includes Antartica, which some maps of this ilk omit.
This makes it great for your adventuresome friends who might someday make the trek to the most remote corner of the globe. Secondly, this map includes boundaries for all the US states and Canadian provinces, making it easier to scratch off only the parts of the US and Canada she has actually visited.

Shop now at Amazon From Amazon This WorkPro 20-V pink cordless drill-driver is a great gift for any woman who is serious about DIY projects. It’s also a great gift for a young woman who needs to start putting together her first toolbox. This isn’t some pretty but less functional drill. This baby has a 20V rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery, a keyless chuck, two-speed gear control, an LED light, and a magnetic base.
Pink may seem like a girly color for tools, but we actually know quite a few guys who now own pink power tools. The pink color makes them easy to see on a job site, and the color also makes it perfectly clear when someone has borrowed your tools (although we’ve heard that some guys aren’t man enough to snatch the pink tools.)
So whether she loves pink, or just loves the idea of tools that her coworkers and significant other won’t steal, this pink drill is a great gift for her.
