Of course, you can never go wrong with a Hydro Flask. This bestselling water bottle is also stainless steel and vacuum insulated. It comes in more than a dozen colors and makes for a great eco-friendly accessory she’ll use on a daily basis.
Vivitest Ceramic Essential Oil Diffuser
This essential oil diffuser is perfect for anyone trying to add more relaxation to their life. It has a sleek ceramic design with a light at the base that can change colors, and it can run for up to five hours (however, the auto-shutoff should begin when the water runs out).

Minute Mimosa Sugar Cube Trio
Pair these with a bottle of her favorite bubbly and she’ll be prepared to host brunch (or at least the beverage portion) on the fly. Choose from the citrus trio if she’s a mimosa girl or the peaches and berries trio if Bellinis are more her speed. These also have a neat backstory: They’re the brainchild of Allison DeVane, a female entrepreneur who used to sell tea from a bicycle cart in Phoenix.

Everyone can appreciate a nice candle, but this unique candle from Uncommon Goods has a special touch. You can select a variation for her birth month that will be outfitted with the respective flowers and gemstones. It’s a personalized gift that is almost too pretty to burn.

When it gets dirty, she can simply vacuum the mat or toss the pieces in the dishwasher for an easy clean.
Our Place Always Pan 2.0

Barry’s E-Gift Card
Shop TODAY editor Vivien Moon is planning on gifting her friend a Barry’s gift card. “My best friend and I love to do a workout class together but between our busy schedules and how pricey they can get, we hardly end up coordinating anything which is why I’m gifting her a gift card to Barry’s so that if she wants to, she can go alone and know that I wanted her to go with her even if I can’t make it or next time we go...” she says. “It’s like saying ‘this ones on me’ without actually saying it.”
