S’Well Bottle Gift Collection
For the fitness enthusiast and eco conscious
A s’well gift: Designed with 18/8 highest-grade stainless steel, S’Well water bottles are ideal for your eco-friendly workout fan. They keep drinks cold for 24 hours (and hot for 12) without that irritating condensation on the outside of the bottle. The brand’s current Gift Collection comes with a trio of bottles of equal or various sizes, in multiple finishes (we’re currently obsessed with the slightly rustic-inspired “Into the Woods” and glam “Host with the Most” sets).
Currently on sale, collection starting from $67.50; swellbottle.com
For the fitness enthusiast and fashionista
BitterSweet Bracelet
A bit of practical bling: Fashionable and functional, this BitterSweet bracelet does double duty, acting as both a piece of jewelry and as a place to hold your elastic hair tie. That means you can feel as comfortable wearing it at the office or a night out with friends as you do at the gym. Several styles of this sterling silver bracelet are available; you can order them engraved with a special message as well.
Starting from $45

The Carry On Cocktail Kit
For the jetsetter
Cheers: Raise your glass to The Carry On Cocktail Kit, which your jet-setting loved one can tote on his or her next flight. The kit comes with all the tools necessary to craft two drinks (choose from the Old Fashioned, Moscow Mule, Gin & Tonic, or Champagne), excluding the alcohol, which needs to be purchased in flight. We love the thoughtful details, too—from the cute tin packaging that’s small enough to slip in a carry-on bag to the recipe card and linen coaster. Perfect for a stocking stuffer or Secret Santa gift!
If you choose to splurge, order the Cocktail Kit Travel Pack, which comes complete with three varieties of The Carry On Cocktail Kit and is enclosed in a handmade canvas and leather bag.
The Carry On Cocktail Kit; $24
The Cocktail Kit Travel Pack; $90

Body Drench Duo by Skin Authority
Merry moisturizing: We love waiting for what Skin Authority, a brand favored by celebs like Olympic Gold Medalist Kerri Walsh Jennings, releases each holiday season. This year doesn’t disappoint. Its Body Drench Duo is excellent for keeping skin uber-moisturized come winter, with a bamboo ginseng body scrub that preps, followed by jasmine-, sage-, and citrus-infused body butter that hydrates.
In addition, Skin Authority’s Stocking Stuffer Sampler is great for Secret Santa exchanges at work, stockings, hostess gifts, or as a “just because” present. Filled with four small-sized products; Hand Foot Body Restoration, 0.7 oz; Olive, Fig, Shea Butter Body Cream, 0.7 oz; Sunscreen Moisturizer SPF30, 0.7 oz; and Daily Cleanser, 0.7 oz—it’s also a great introduction to the Skin Authority brand.
Body Drench Duo, $50
Stocking Stuffer Sampler, $25
