79 Best Gifts for Women in Their 20s: The Ultimate List

This is the kind of gift that can change someone’s life.

I got a laptop when I was in my twenties, and it changed my life. Sure, maybe your favorite twenty-something already has a laptop, but either way, she’d be thrilled with this Lenovo IdeaPad. Even if she’s not sure yet about her direction in life, this IdeaPad will help her explore new ideas. If she loves drawing or making lists by hand, she can use the included smart pen on the responsive touch screen. She can work easily on any surface, thanks to the 360-degree hinge on the screen.

And when she’s ready to kick back, the 16-inch screen and multiple view modes will be perfect for watching shows or movies.

“Educated,” by Tara Westover, is a wonderful gift for any literary or academically-minded young woman.

Or any woman, perhaps, who is defining her own future against the wishes of her family.

Tara Westover was raised by doomsday preppers in rural Idaho, and did not attend school. But she discovered the value of education, and in pursuing an intellectual life.

This would be a great gift for any woman who sees value in higher education.

This Portable Car Battery Jump Starter Pack is perfect for the independent woman who sometimes has car trouble. (In other words, any woman who owns a car.)

These car starter batteries can really come in handy when you’re in a bind. They come in extra handy when you’re out of cell phone range (like when you’re camping, or in rural areas).

Also, even if your favorite twenty-something has a Triple-A membership for roadside emergencies like this, Triple A has a limit on how many times you can use their service in one year. Yes, that is something I (unfortunately) discovered in my twenties.

“Wild,” the award-winning book by Cheryl Strayed, is a classic read for women in their 20s.

This memoir, ostensibly a story about hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, explores the author’s struggle with losing her mother in her early twenties, as well as her own struggle with addiction.

It’s a story about building resilience and finding yourself. It’s also a story about learning how to be alone — an essential skill for any woman in her twenties who wants to move forward into her own future.

(You might be familiar with the movie adaptation, starring Reese Witherspoon.)

The Fancii Nano Ionic Facial Steamer is the perfect gift for anyone who loves skincare, beauty rituals, and self-care. If you know someone who would enjoy giving herself at-home facials, you can really elevate her relaxation and moisturization by gifting her this awesome steamer.

For many people, steaming is the iconic part of a spa-quality facial. The steam helps open up your pores, so your skin can better absorb moisture and products.

This steamer works really, really well. (Full Disclosure: I received a free unit to test out.) The sheer output of steam is amazing. And it can run for about 20 or 30 minutes before the small water tank runs out. The tank is extremely easy to refill when you’re ready to do it again.

If she enjoys aromatherapy, she can even add essential oils, to elevate her relaxation experience.

Give this to someone who you can picture enjoying at-home facials and aromatherapy. She’ll think of you as she unwinds with her favorite new ritual.

Women in their twenties are usually into decorating their homes, and creating a cozy “vibe.”

A sheepskin rug like this one can fit into nearly any style of home decor. Whether your loved one’s home is rustic, modern, vintage, or feng-shui, everyone has room for a sheepskin rug. Plus, it feels like heaven on your feet.

If she’s already got a million sheepskin rugs, you could try giving her a gas fire pit.

This Luxury Bathtub Caddy Tray is the perfect gift for the woman who loves to take baths.

Especially if she enjoys taking long baths.

Sometimes, it’s easy to get bored in the bathtub. That’s why you need this caddy, which has a spot to prop up your book or iPad. It even has a spot to keep you from spilling your wine glass in the tub.

Elevate her bath ritual forevermore with this thoughtful bath caddy.

This would also be a great gift for a new mom. (New moms need to take lots of healing baths.) For more great ideas for new moms, check out our guide to Christmas gifts for new moms.

This jade roller makes a luxurious gift for the beauty lover in your life.

Jade rollers de-puff the skin naturally, using a jade stone. This natural hack has practically become a sacred creed among beauty influencers. It can be especially helpful after a night of partying — which, um, women in their twenties tend to enjoy. (I’ve heard.)

Help your favorite twenty-something look polished for in time for work, even if she hasn’t gotten her beauty sleep.

This jade roller is made with real jade, and comes from the cult-favorite brand Herbivore, which is always a hit with women in their twenties.

Women in their twenties work hard. Show your favorite hard-working twenty-something that you respect the hustle.

Get this well-reviewed espresso machine for your favorite twenty-something who loves her lattes.

This Home Bartending Kit includes everything your favorite twenty-something will need to start classing up her cocktail game.

As her drinking habits mature, she’ll appreciate this stainless steel cocktail shaker, along with these other tools, which can be easily stored in the stylish bamboo stand.

If she does any outdoor hosting, you could help her seriously host some awesome winter gatherings by giving her an outdoor gas fire pit. (These have become increasingly popular during the era of Covid, when loved ones are forced to gather outdoors.) This one also works as a table, so she can serve her incredible cocktails outdoors by the fire.

This Massage Gun would make a fantastic gift for any athlete in her twenties.

This is one of the more affordable percussion massage guns on the market. It comes with six different massage heads, for massaging different muscle groups.

If you know someone who really pushes herself in her workouts, this would be a thoughtful gift she’ll use often. Why not throw in some topical CBD cream she can apply while she uses it?

This fascinating memoir by Lisa Brennan-Jobs is a great gift for any woman in her 20s who has grappled with modern family challenges.

(In other words, almost every woman.)

It’s a coming-of-age story written by the daughter of Steve Jobs, the late founder of Apple computers.

It’s a little known story of his cruelty to his firstborn, out-of-wedlock daughter, yet it’s also a story of forgiveness, growth, and becoming your own person –no matter what darkness lies in your past.

This gift set of bath bombs makes a great gift for anyone who loves taking baths.

(Basically, any woman in her twenties who has access to a bathtub.)

As many women in their twenties will tell you, staying in is the new going out. Self-care is the new party night.

Even better when your self-care ritual is Instagram-friendly. These colorful bath bombs will create fizzy color, and include dried flower petals, making her bathtub a worthy photo op. Then she can get in and relax, thanks to the aromatherapy scents! For more great gift ideas for the woman who loves self-care, check out our guide to spiritual gifts for women.

Chloe Caldwell’s “I’ll Tell You in Person” is a collection of personal essays that will make any modern twenty-something woman laugh for days.

Chloe Caldwell is relatable and candid about what it’s like to try to become an adult in your twenties.

Most women will find glimmers of themselves in these pages, whether they, too, have struggled with addictions, or cystic acne, or the challenges of pursuing a less-than-lucrative profession.

But don’t worry, you won’t be making any pointed accusations by giving someone this book. It’s just a book of hilarious essays any woman will appreciate. (For examples of those other, less-appreciated sorts of books, check out my guide to the worst Christmas gifts ever.)

This “Nevertheless She Persisted” Feminist T-Shirt would be a perfect gift for any woman who supports women’s rights.

The phrase “nevertheless, she persisted” is actually something MItch McConnell said about Elizabeth Warren, when she was fighting against the confirmation of Jeff Sessions as Attorney General.

Today, the phrase has been widely adopted by the feminist movement.

Show the woman in your life that you understand what she’s fighting for, by giving her this T-shirt.

This Selfie Ring Light with Tripod Stand would make a wonderful gift for any woman who’s ready to take over the internet.

Even if your loved one is already creating fantastic content, it can feel self-indulgent to invest in equipment for furthering your online presence.

But it’s not self-indulgence. In today’s world, developing an online persona isn’t just a plea for attention. It can be critical to professional development (and not to mention lucrative deals).

Help the woman in your life get ahead with this kit.

This Antique Handmade Vintage Leather Journal is the perfect gift for any woman in her twenties who loves a vintage aesthetic.

If she isn’t already into journaling, you might want to give this along with the book we reviewed below, called “Life’s Companion.”

She’s not going to want to miss out on detailing and processing her life experiences in her twenties. In a time of so much growth, it really helps to keep a journal. She can write down her goals and her complex feelings as she navigates this wild, turbulent decade of her life.

Plus, it helps to have a gorgeous journal with an inviting vibe of its own.

This beautiful coffee table book by Justina Blakenay has become a favorite among women in their 20s, who are often decorating their own homes for the first time.

Or maybe they move into new apartments frequently, and are looking to cultivate “good vibes” in each new place.

Even if they only have a bedroom to decorate, in a home with many roommates, this book will give them ideas for plants and decor to cultivate their own space.

This classic book by Christina Baldwin would be a perfect book for the woman who wants to start journaling, but doesn’t know how to start.

Actually, even if you know she already keeps a journal, this book will help her find new ways to chronicle her life’s journey.

The book encourages the reader to use journaling as a spiritual practice that helps us explore our memories, values, inner questions, and lives. It includes example journal entries (which are anonymous, but inspiring), as well as practical tips to get even the most analytical thinker writing creatively.

Give this to the woman who is spiritually inclined — maybe with the leather journal reviewed above!

Every 20-something woman needs a Kindle. She can read in bed, during her commute, or even in the bathtub. (Throw in some bath bombs for a gift that shows you really understand her!)

The Kindle Oasis has an adjustable warm light, so she can read before bed without screwing up her sleep schedule by exposing her eyes to blue light. (Blue light, the kind normally emitted by computer screens, can interfere with the body’s production of melatonin.)

This makes the Kindle Oasis a particularly thoughtful gift for anyone who has trouble falling asleep.

This vintage-style laptop backpack will be a perfect gift for a young woman on the go.

Whatever her goals, you’ll help her achieve them with this backpack, which can fit laptops up to 16 inches. Shockproof padding will keep her computer safe, and the convenient outer pockets will help her stay organized on the fly.

Plus, this vintage canvas and leather look will match all her outfits. And carrying her laptop in a backpack won’t cause her to need chiropractor visits in her thirties (unlike a more one-side bag, like a messenger bag, which can lead to spinal injuries over time).

This Macrame Plant Hanger Shelf is perfect for the woman with many plants. 

If she loves tending to her green indoor friends, she’ll love this shelf.

If the twenty something in your life doesn’t own Apple Airpods yet, she will be delighted by this gift. All young people love airpods. (Of course, they’d make a great gift for older people, too.) These bluetooth headphones are comfortable and easy to use. She’ll be listening to music and her favorite podcasts wherever she is — and silently thanking you for such a thoughtful gift.

Luxury home goods connoisseurs know that an authentic Pendleton Wool Blanket is the best blanket money can buy.

Show them how much you care with the gift of a timeless, classic blanket that they can treasure throughout their twenties — and beyond.

A Pendleton is a lifetime keepsake.

This Soda Stream Sparkling Water Machine is perfect for the woman who loves her LaCroix.

If she crushes a few cans of seltzer a day, she’ll be forever grateful to you for saving her big bucks. Now she can just make her own seltzer at home.

Bonus: These machines are also perfect for anyone who mixes cocktails at home. Or anyone who’s sober, or who has sober friends over. It’s nice to be able to whip up a seltzer and lime for your friends at a moment’s notice.

This Bar Serving Cart is perfect for the woman who hosts parties, gatherings, shindigs, girls’ nights, or other events.

Help her host chic, grown-up gatherings with this bar cart. Even if she’s not mixing up cocktails, it will be great for serving snacks and other beverages.

This GENIANI 2-in-1 Humidifier & Essential Oil Diffuser is perfect for the woman who loves both maintaining a healthy indoor environment and aromatherapy.

If that’s the case, she will seriously love this unit. She may even toss her old humidifier: most humidifiers can’t accommodate essential oils. (If you add essential oils to a normal humidifier, you’ll probably break it.)

But this GENIANI unit has a separate chamber for essential oils. And it’s so easy to use.

This would be a particularly thoughtful gift for anyone who lives in a drier climate (or, as we’ve seen in the extreme this fall, a wildfire zone).

Full Disclosure: I received a free GENIANI humidifier to test out, and I’m obsessed. With my old humidifier, I had to remove the entire tank (and turn it upside down in the bathtub) to refill it. But with this top-fill unit, if I notice my humidifier’s water levels are getting low, I can just fill up a container in the sink, walk over to the humidifier, and pour it in.

This might not sound like a big deal, but it’s making my life way easier. Your favorite twenty-something woman will probably feel the same way!

This doTERRA Essential Oils Kit is perfect for the woman who likes aromatherapy.

Even if she doesn’t talk about her love for aromatherapy, everyone loves pleasing scents. It’s human nature.

But it’s important to use high-quality essential oils. DoTERRA is known for producing some of the highest-quality essential oils available right now.

With this kit of the most, um, essential essential oils, she can also experiment with making her own blends.

Bonus: Give this as a package gift with the diffuser included below.

This Palo Santo is better than incense. It’s a natural wood that falls to the ground in Peru and ages for four years.

Palo Santo is beloved for its calming scent. It’s often used for meditation, yoga, and reflection.

Get this for the woman who loves to set the stage for her self-care rituals.

These Chic Ceramic Indoor Planters are perfect for any woman who loves keeping plants in her home.

These planters will match most home decor, due to their simple ceramic design.

Whether she’s cultivating an indoor jungle or a lone cactus, she’ll love this planter.

Get this stylish office accessory set for the woman who gets stuff done at her desk — and loves a pop of color.

Whether she’s starting her own business or working a 9-to-5, she probably spends a lot of time at her desk.

Whether she works from home or in a traditional workplace, she’s going to love these thoughtful office accessories. 

A Le Creuset Stoneware Canister Set is perfect for the woman who likes keeping her kitchen tidy — and Instagram-worthy.

With these canisters from the legendary French kitchenware brand Le Creuset, she can keep her coffee, spices, and dried goods safely stored on her countertop, while helper her kitchen look super chic.

Even if she hasn’t settled down into a long-term housing arrangement, these canisters are nice enough that she’ll tote them from apartment to apartment.

This Logitech Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard is the perfect gift for the woman who has recently shifted to working from home.

In our twenties, we start to realize that hunching over a laptop may not be good for our spine health.

With this keyboard (widely considered one of the best Bluetooth keyboards available today), she can elevate her monitor or laptop to eye level, helping her work from home with better posture.

This LEVOIT Home Air Purifier is widely considered one of the best air purifiers you can buy on a budget.

And it would be a particularly thoughtful gift for anyone who lives in the areas hit by wildfires, which are now devastating air quality across California, Oregon, and Washington (and sometimes Colorado) on a near-annual basis.

We have not seen the end of poor air quality due to raging wildfires. Get this well-reviewed air purifier for someone who wants to breathe healthy air in their bedroom. (It works well in large rooms, too.)

This Slip Pure Silk Sleep Mask stands out among sleep masks because of its luxurious silk fibers, which are designed for anti-aging properties. (This mask won’t pull on delicate facial skin.)

Plus, pure silk feels amazing on your skin.

If you know a woman who loves using sleep masks to get her z’s, this is a thoughtful gift she’ll use often. (And even if she doesn’t wear an eye mask nightly, they’re invaluable during travel.)

These fluffy slip-on slippers are a perfect gift for any woman. They’re especially thoughtful in the era of stay-at-home and safer-at-home ordinances.

No matter how many slippers you own, it’s always the easy slip-on slippers that end up being your go-to pair.

And with the faux-fur on these, her feet will be lounging in comfort.

These super luxurious 100% Egyptian Cotton Sheets stand out because of their 800-thread count, and their ridiculous number of positive reviews.

Do you know a woman who prioritizes her sleep?

Nothing will upgrade her life like a set of brand-new, ultra-luxurious sheets like these.

Fun Silk Pajamas are something she probably wouldn’t buy for herself — but will absolutely love.

Plus, this set of PJs is a one-piece jumper, scoring double the points with women in their 20s.

Get these for the twenty-something woman who loves lounging at home and watching Netflix, while looking cute.

This amethyst crystal would be an incredible gift for anyone who loves crystals.

People who use crystals for healing believe that amethysts can rid a space of negative energy, creating a more peaceful environment.

Other people just love crystals because they make for beautiful home decor.

Either way, if you know someone who places crystals around their home, they’ll be thrilled with this beautiful, authentic specimen.

This stoneware dinnerware set is perfect for the twenty-something woman who loves nesting — and simple, understated elegance.

In our twenties, we don’t always have the money to invest in classic basic home goods like this. Help her class up her home (and replace that ancient, mismatched dinnerware scraped together from thrift stores) with this simple but lovely set.

It includes four dinner plates, four smaller dessert plates, four fruit bowls and four artisanal bowls.

Experts say that women are more likely than men to experience sleep problems like insomnia.

Help the twenty-something woman in your life get better sleep. This pillow has adjustable memory foam. You can easily open the pillow and take some out, and get the pillow to your desired height.

It would be the perfect gift for any young woman who needs a better night’s rest.

This Spa-Style Terry Cloth Cotton Bathrobe would be the perfect gift for any woman who loves self-care.

Maybe you haven’t heard her use the exact term “self-care.” But most twenty-something women enjoy taking baths, lighting candles, and indulging in relaxing rituals at home.

And this is the perfect robe for anyone. While plush robes may look appealing, they’re not as pleasant after bathing or showering. This terry style cotton, however, is perfectly absorbent. She’ll enjoy it for years to come.

This would make a great combo gift with the bath caddy, bath bombs, facial kit, or other self-care gifts included on this list.

A heated mattress pad is a perfect gift for any woman who loves to be cozy. And this Sunbeam heated mattress pad is one of the best-rated options for a dual control mattress pad.

So it’s perfect even if she sometimes (or always) shares her bed with a partner — now or in the future.

Give her the gift of total comfort under her sheets — even on the chilliest of nights.

Do you know a woman who was crushing the banana bread craze during quarantine?

Help her boost her banana bread game, and maybe even step it up to the other quarantine classic: sourdough bread.

She can experiment with new recipes (pizza dough from scratch! carrot cake!) with this fantastic Aucma Stand Mixer. It has thousands of positive reviews, and will also look cute in her kitchen.

This luxury scented candle set includes four aromatherapy candles, which are sure to delight any 20-something woman spending time in her home.

Plus, they’re soy, vegan, and cruelty-free.

And reviewers love them!

This Facial Steamer is the perfect gift for the woman who’s interested in skincare (and self-care).

The steam helps open the pores, allowing for greater penetration of skincare products, as well as deeper cleansing. In recent years, these facial steamers have taken over as one of the most popular skincare wellness products available.

When you receive a facial treatment at a spa, the facial steamer is always an essential part of the aesthetician’s process. It’s a step that has always been hard to replicate at home.

Plus, sometimes the best gift is an indulgence she wouldn’t buy for herself.

This Bathtub Spa Pillow is perfect for any woman who likes to take baths.

And it only takes one scroll through Instagram to see how much women in their 20s appreciate a good bath. (Hashtag self-care, anyone?)

Combined with one of the books on this list (or the bath bombs!), this would be an extra thoughtful gift.

This Acupressure Mat and Pillow Set is a great way to help your loved one relieve pain and release muscle tension in their back and neck.

It has thousands of positive reviews, and makes a perfect cheap yet thoughtful gift!

This Vanity Table Set with Drawers, and Cushioned Stool is perfect for the woman in her twenties who’s creating her own self-care routine.

Whether she enjoys a morning or bedtime skincare routine, she’ll love having a designated space to take some me-time. This table comes with a cute cushioned stool, and a makeup mirror with a built-in light.

Herbivore Botanicals Coconut Milk Bath Soak has received rave reviews from beauty and self-care bloggers.

And everyone loves coconut. And baths.

If your favorite twenty-something enjoys baths, you can’t go wrong with this luxury bath soak, which will make her bath smell delicious while making her skin silky smooth.

Drawing Without Dignity – A Twisted Funny Adult Party Game is perfect for that twenty-something who loves to host game nights with her friends. It’s especially perfect if her friends have a raunchy sense of humor.

If you get it for someone who loves to draw and sketch, she’ll probably appreciate it even more.

Many twenty-something women enjoy a well-made cocktail. Plus, it’s always fun to shake up a cocktail for a friend or visitor.

Bonus: A cocktail shaker can add a certain degree of fanciness to any alcohol-free “mocktail.”

She’ll love how just owning these pieces of barware can class up her home.

The iRobot Roomba 675 Robot Vacuum is the perfect gift for anyone who likes to keep their home clean — but doesn’t want to spend that much time vacuuming their floors.

This version even responds to voice commands.

Every twenty-something wants their home to be welcoming and grown-up. But twenty-somethings are also very busy.

She will love how this saves her time!

The Osprey Renn 65 Women’s Backpacking Backpack is one of the best packs for outdoor adventures out there.

Osprey takes care to make women’s packs with the waist strap and chest strap adjusted for our comfort.

And your favorite twenty-something may take up backpacking soon — especially if you give this gift along with Cheryl Strayed’s “Wild” (the book reviewed at the top of this list).

The young woman in your life might not be backpacking around Europe anytime soon — but, after 2020, she may be ready to hit the trails.

A hot water bottle with a cute cover is a great gift for anyone, but especially any woman who loves to be cozy. It’s perfect while she’s bingeing Netflix, or even working on her laptop in bed. (I’ve heard.)

Of course, a hot water bottle is a great treatment for menstrual cramps or back pain, too. It’s somehow cozier (and definitely cuter) than getting a heating pad as a gift. Plus, unlike a heating pad, you can take it from room to room, or even fall asleep with it. (A heating pad, meanwhile, has to be plugged in, and it isn’t advisable to leave one turned on while you fall asleep.)

Pair this gift with a great CBD cream, for the ultimate at-home comfort!

The thing about being in your twenties is that you will soon, inevitably, be in your thirties. (And you’ll suddenly wish you’d worn more sunscreen.) If you’re looking for a gift for a woman in her later twenties, chances are she has been facing this reality already.

If you’ve heard her voice concerns about premature aging, help her out by giving her this NuFACE Petite Facial Toning Device. “Microcurrent sends soft, gentle waves [of electricity] through the skin, down to the facial muscles,” licensed aesthetician and NuFACE co-founder Tera Peterson told the website Well and Good (which is beloved by twenty-something women). These waves stimulate the growth of collagen and elastin — the proteins we need to fight the signs of aging.

Get this leather travel duffel bag for your favorite adventurer who loves a vintage look.

Women in their twenties need solid luggage for their adventures. They need it to have plenty of room for everything the trip might require, but also look great.

This Roc Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board would be an amazing gift for any woman who lives near water!

That doesn’t mean she needs to live near the coast. SUP boards are also perfect for lakes and rivers. Here in Colorado, we sometimes even take paddleboards down whitewater rapids! In fact, I once broke my thumb this way. In my twenties.

But I’d still recommend this for any woman in her twenties. Paddleboarding is an incredible way to explore any body of water while getting a great workout. Some people even do yoga on paddleboards. Some people even bring their dogs. If this sounds like a young woman you know, get her this incredible gift!

Your favorite 20-something needs her sleep. But she probably also spends a lot of time staring at screens.

And research has shown that the blue light emitted by screens can interfere with our normal sleep cycles. (It interrupts the body’s production of melatonin, the hormone that helps us fall asleep.)

So get here these blue-light blocking glasses. That way, she can continue to work on her laptop — or binge Netflix — at night, without it keeping her up too late afterward.

And if she’s still struggling to fall asleep, get her some CBD capsules for sleep, too.

These Bluetooth Wireless Earbuds would be an amazing gift for anyone. Everyone needs wireless earbuds. (Even if she already has some, it’s good to have a backup pair — these tiny pieces of technology are easy to misplace.)

So snag these earbuds for her. Their comfortable over-ear design ensures they’ll comfy to wear, and they’re also waterproof and sweat-proof. They also come in fun colors, making them an even better gift than most earbuds. They have great audio, and are easy to pair with your devices with a simple one-step process.

This juicer will immediately improve any health-oriented 20-something’s life. Its spiral masticator and reverse-function ensure that you get the most juice possible out of your fruits and veggies.

(Many cheaper juicer machines waste too much of your valuable produce.)

Plus, this machine is quiet, while cheaper juicers are noisy. (And if your gift recipient lives in an apartment building, her neighbors might not appreciate it.)

And this juicer won’t take up too much of her counter space.

If she’s ready to live the super-healthy juicing life, this will be an amazing gift.

This SereneLife Portable Infrared Home Sauna would be a thoughtful gift for anyone who’s been missing their pre-Covid sauna habit.

Help her turn her home into her own personal spa, with this gift!

If you’re curious about whether people actually like this odd-looking contraption, check out the tons of happy customer reviews.

Help your favorite 20-something stay organized when she’s on the go. This kit has room for all her makeup and travel essentials. Plus, it hangs conveniently on the door of her hotel room — or wherever she finds herself.

If your loved one has long, thick hair, she probably has to spend a lot of time drying it. (Especially in the winter, when you don’t want to go outside with wet hair.) Help her speed up that process while also saving her hair from heat damage with this Professional Ionic Hair Dryer.

Is this a super expensive gift? Yes! But it’s actually significantly cheaper than the Dyson hairdryer, which is on many twenty-somethings wish lists. And most people agree that it works just as well as a Dyson.

“Dare to Lead” is a book by Brene Brown, the academic who went viral with her TED Talk about the value of vulnerability. If you want to encourage the next 20-something female leader in your life, this book would be an excellent gift for her. She might already be a fan of Brown’s podcast, which returned to Spotify after briefly being removed in protest of Joe Rogan’s presence on the platform.

This gift will show that you understand how she’s prioritizing her career — without sacrificing her personal growth.

These cocktail syrups are perfect for both drinkers and non-drinkers alike.

This could be a great gift paired with the classy cocktail shaker set above. (Assuming, of course, that your favorite twenty-something is of legal drinking age.)

If she’s a non-drinker, give her these delicious simple syrups along with a seltzer-making machine, for a gift that will make any sober person feel seen.

This Luxury Towel Warmer makes a perfect gift for a 20 something female person who enjoys taking showers. (Um, that’s all of us.) There’s nothing better than relaxing in a long hot shower, and stepping out to wrap yourself up in a warm towel. She will literally use this after every shower.

I received one of these as a gift about six years ago, and I’ve probably used it more times than any other gift I’ve received. So I recently gave one as a gift to my friend, who is now using it after every shower SHE takes. If you want to give a gift that brings someone joy and comfort on a daily basis, this is it.

The Angel Kiss Gold Bar Facial Massager Tool is actually an affordable knockoff of a much more expensive skincare tool. Despite the price difference, the tools may be nearly identical.

When celebrities from Alicia Keys to Patrick Dempsey started posting videos of themselves massaging their faces with a vibrating 24-Karat gold T-shaped bar, the beauty media breathlessly covered this innovative yet simple device. Of course, the celeb favorite came with a celeb-worthy price.

But now you can get the simple device for a fraction of the cost. Get this for a twenty-something who loves to level up her skincare routine, or who just loves pampering and self-care.

This Mushroom Monotub Kit by Surfin’ Spores is perfect for the budding mycologist in your life.

If you know a woman who appreciates gourmet mushrooms (or any other kind of mushrooms), she’ll be thrilled that you got her this kit. It also works well in small spaces, and can be deflated for easy storage.

Plus, next time you go over for dinner, she’ll probably treat you to some homegrown Oyster mushrooms or Shiitakes. (Or, if she lives in Colorado or Oregon, she might try growing some other kind of mushrooms.)

Either way, if she loves mushrooms of any kind, she will totally appreciate this thoughtful gift — and you may even spark a lifelong hobby. Someday, she might even upgrade to a larger-scale mushroom fruiting chamber.

This Cleaning Pen for Airpods is perfect for your favorite busy, chatty twenty-something who uses ear pods religiously. Ear pods get dirty, and this is a great stocking stuffer to show that you understand her daily life. 

Do you know a twenty-something who loves a soft, warm glow? Or who hopes to cultivate a romantic ambiance in her apartment?

This is the gift for her!

The jury is still out on whether salt lamps actually provide mood-boosting health benefits.

But they certainly provide warm lighting. Which, sometimes, is all you need for a mood boost.

Your favorite 20-something is probably frequently on the go. Help her travel in style — especially to remote destinations. Whether she loves celebrating “van life” or checking out hip hotels, show her that you get it, with this top-of-the-line Patagonia duffel bag.

Everyone needs a foam roller. If you know a twenty-something who likes to stretch, a foam roller can really take their self-care and workout-recovery game to the next level. This one is textured to help release muscle tension even further.
