Best Gift Ideas Under $50

1. Stainless Steel Water Bottle

This water bottle will keep water cold all day long, and be durable enough to last for a long time!​​​​​​​​​​​​​

It is compact and portable and gives long-lasting reading time. It can be taken anywhere and allow for reading in any environment!

​​​​​​​​​​​The LED light has been designed to provide plenty of reading light while being easy on the eyes.​

3. Portable Blender

A portable blender is a great gift for someone in college, or for the person-on-the-go. It can help to easily hold and then blend smoothie items no matter where you are. ​​​​​​​

The blender doubles up as a travel mug to use to enjoy the smoothie once it is ready!

It is portable and easy to wash – and absolutely ideal for the person who needs a quick-fix breakfast on-the-go each morning!​

I bought this for myself because I’m traveling a lot and most AirBnB’s don’t have a blender. It has been a lifesaver!

4. Lip Souffle Matte Cream Lipstick

Omg, I am quite literally OBSSESSED with these lipsticks.​

I love how matte lipticks look but hate how most dry out your lips. I feel like I have concrete on my lips.

These are not like that!

This weightless air-whipped lip cream is gorgeous. They hug the lips with rich color while giving nourishing hydration, with a soft, velvety matte finish.

The Lip Souffle, created by Selena Gomez is available in a few shades, but the bright red is Selena’s go-to shade and an absolute stunner.

My personal favorites are Courage, Fearless, and Transform (for a night out!)

5. Nike Heritage Fanny Pack

Not only are fanny packs all the rage at the moment, but they are so incredibly useful as well.

The bag is perfect for traveling, and for quick trips, and allows you to secure all your essentials close to your body.

The belt is can be adjusted to suit your fit.

This clear Nike bag has to be my all-time favorite fanny pack.

It’s just so chic and bold, while being low-key! Absolutely love it.

6. Sleeveless Wide Leg Jumpsuit

There really is no one who would say no to a comfortable jumpsuit to lounge around in during the day.

This stretch-jersey jumpsuit is styled with slinky adjustable straps, and wide legs to be as comfortable as possible.

I have been living in this during quarantine. It is the perfect lounge-wear outfit that makes for a great gift!

7. Cold Brew Coffee Maker

Give them the gift of endless cold brew coffee with the Cold Brew Coffee Maker! It allows you to make cold brew at home using the mesh of the pitcher to brew their coffee or tea of choice!

It is a super convenient pitcher to use daily for cold brew coffee, and it is also designed with aesthetics in mind.

This is a thoughtful gift, yet one not many people would think of getting. Pair it with a bag of coffee beans for the ideal combination!

8. Waffled Bathrobe

Everyone should have their own bathrobe, hung up in the bathroom waiting to be used. However, we often don’t splurge and buy one for ourselves!

That is why this waffled bathrobe would be such a great gift and one which will definitely be put to use often! Choose between two different colors for the perfect gift.

9. Nike Sports Bra

I swear, this post isn’t sponsored by Nike, I just really like them (LOL)

If you are purchasing a gift for a sporty woman, the Nike Indy Light-Support Sports Bra will definitely be appreciated.

Good beach towels can last years, and you can buy a pair of these gorgeous striped beach towels.

Made with woven fabric and cotton terry at the back and fringed ends, these will be put to good use!

When misted into the toilet bowl, the spray creates a protective barrier on the water’s surface, to trap in unpleasant odors as they happen.
