25 Secret Santa Gifts Under $25 Anyone Would Be Delighted to Receive

While as children we all used to dread a pair of socks in our Christmas stockings, as adults they’re some of the best gifts one can receive. These from Barefoot Dreams are oh-so soft for lazy wintry weekends.

Your giftee will be delighted to finally have a set of travel-friendly fragrances (with scents like Wood Sage & Sea Salt and Peony & Blush Suede) to take the next time they’re OOO. They might just find a new signature scent, too.

A satin pillowcase allows anyone to rest easy knowing they’ll wake up with smooth hair and no creases on their face from their deep slumber. This one comes in 15 different colors and patterns.

We all have that one person in our lives who’s liberal (maybe even progressive) with the flaky sea salt. So, give them what they’ll use: A truly magnificent tub of the stuff. It’ll add depth—and class—to everything from a batch of cookies to a reverse seared steak.

Everyone should have a set of blank stationary to grab when they need a thank you note, love note, housewarming gift, or birthday card in a pinch. This one from Rifle Paper Co. is bright, warm, and inviting.

The best kind of Secret Santa gift is one that they’ll actually use, not something that will just take up more space in their home. This collapsible travel cup from Stojo is great for warm and cold beverages alike, whether they want to sip their morning latte or tote a smoothie to work.

Here’s a sleek, pint-sized ultrasonic essential oil diffuser that they can put anywhere in their home when the space needs a refresh. Because it’s so small, they can travel with it, too.

With so many niche cookbooks out there, it’s tough to find one that feels accessible for simple, everyday meals.

As the seasons change, a moisturizing sheet mask like this one from Dr. Jart works wonders on any skin type to save it from dehydration and dullness. Go ahead, buy them two.
