Editor Quote: "It truly is a five minute (max!) commitment, and I have seen my gratitude levels markedly improve since I started using it.

However, if you're someone who just wants their hair to be dry, the Revlon One-Step Flat Brush Hair Dryer & Styler will be the best $34 you spend on a hot hair tool. Trust me." — Ariel Baker, assistant editor, Beauty

One editor noted that, despite their compact design, you're still able to "fit plenty of items into each piece" in this review of the Monos Compressible Packing Cubes.

Editor Quote: "In my experience, the softer the packing cubes, the better. Oftentimes stiffer cubes can be a pain to try to squeeze into a suitcase, especially if you're dealing with a hard-shell model that's less flexible — which is precisely why I love these Monos packing cubes so much. The travel organizers are made from a tear-resistant nylon material that molds with whatever you're packing, so you can squeeze a ton of clothing, shoes, and even accessories into each one." — Kyley Warren, assistant editor, Commerce

If you're gifting a woman in her 20s, you simply can't go wrong with an initial pendant necklace.

It doesn't get more comfortable than this cozy robe. It's soft and oversize and feels like you're wearing a blanket. If you know a 20-something who can't get dressed without at least 20 minutes of robe time, lives in a place with chilly winters, or spends their days bundled up while working from home, this is a winning and thoughtful gift. Complete with a hood for extra-cold nights, this robe is ideal for cuddling up in and comes in four color options. Read our review of the Unhide Shleepy Robe for more.

It is great for overnight trips and was a dream to use on my quick weekend getaway. The dimensions of this bag fit most airline requirements for a personal-item bag." — Anvita Reddy, assistant editor, commerce

Our Place Always Pan 2.0 ($150)

If you have an Instagram account or find yourself regularly scrolling through the #CookTok hashtag on TikTok, chances are you've probably seen Our Place's famous Always Pan splashed all over your feed — and for good reason. This multifunctional pan eliminates the need for a ton of cookware, as its nonstick composition allows users to cook up just about anything they'd like. Plus, it recently got an upgrade, and one POPSUGAR editor detailed her love for the tool in this Our Place Always Pan product review.

Editor Quote: "If you enjoy cooking, investing in quality cookware is always worth the splurge. From the convenience of versatility to its quality and care in manufacturing, Our Place has proved time and time again that it doesn't cut corners. Plus, the brand is so stylish; who wouldn't want to romanticize meal prepping with such cute colorways!?" — Anvita Reddy, assistant editor, Commerce

Bearaby Knitted Weighted Blanket - 10 lbs ($199)

Weighted blankets don't all look like plain, quilted comforters.

Learn more in this Carbon38 High Rise Full-Length Legging review.

Editor Quote: "Frankly, these leggings tick just about every box imaginable for me — they're ultrasoft but not particularly sleek, meaning they hug my body perfectly and I never have to worry about them sliding down or not holding their shape during a workout. The bottoms have a contoured design that accentuates curves and keeps everything feeling supported and in place, but they're also not too snug to the point that I feel constricted or like I'm unable to move around in them." — Kyley Warren, assistant editor, Commerce

Hats are a great accessory, but when you're traveling, they can be a pain in the you-know-what to carry. Meet the Frontier Wool Felt Safari Hat, a hat that can actually be packed in a suitcase.

Read our review of the brand's Sierra Crushable Wool Safari Hat for more.

Editor Quote: "Not only is this hat crushable, but it's stylish, too. The hat's made of premium lightweight wool felt and is detailed with a leather stitch band that adds the perfect amount of character. It is weather resistant and even includes a sweatband for your forehead on hot days." — Haley Lyndes, former assistant editor, Commerce

Birkenstock Boston Soft Clog ($145-$160)

The Birkenstock Boston Clog is a great shoe to slip on and head out the door in. We love how its footbed shapes to your feet for maximum comfort and how it's available in a range of finishes.

If you know someone in need of self-care, get them the Hatch Restore 2. This product is a smart sunrise alarm, sound machine, and meditation app all in one. It will be their ultimate sleep helper, whether they need something to help them fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up refreshed.

Editor Quote: "Waking up in the morning has never been easy for me, but with Hatch's built-in sunrise alarm clock, it's as easy as day. The alarm slowly eases me into my morning with faint sounds and lighting rather than waking me with a harsh and disruptive alarm. I also love that I can meditate and listen to soothing sounds like rain and ocean waves whenever I please." — Haley Lyndes, former assistant editor, Commerce

Maison Miru Everyday Nap Earrings Trio ($230, originally $245)

For the fashion-lover, these nap earrings will be the ultimate gift. Unlike other studs or earring styles, this accessory features a flat-back design that prevents the metal from poking into your skin. They're incredibly comfortable to sleep in and one POPSUGAR editor even said that they were "worth every bit of the internet hype" in this review of the Maison Miru nap earrings.

Editor Quote: "I had my skepticisms about these nap earrings, especially considering how much pricier they are than the accessories I'm usually drawn to.

It's the workhorse of the kitchen, getting used at practically every meal." — Laurel Niedospial, contributor

TheraFace PRO Percussive Skin Care Device ($329, originally $399)

If they love using the Theragun massage gun on their body, then they'll definitely appreciate this percussive skin tool. The beauty essential combines everything we love about a body massager into a (gentler) tool that's designed to help depuff your face. One POPSUGAR editor even said she replaced "six different beauty devices" with this singular tool. Check out our TheraFace Pro Device review to learn more.

Editor Quote: "In my opinion, this tool is 100 percent worth the splurge and the hype. It's essentially six beauty devices in one, which means you can spend the money once rather than spending it six different times on six other devices. When weighing out the cost for myself, I thought about the fact that a suitable microcurrent device would run me anywhere from $300 to $500, and an LED mask could cost anywhere from $150 to $200, which meant that it was worth it just for those two attachments alone." — Renee Rodriguez, staff writer and social content producer

Bartesian Cocktail Maker ($370)

If you want to splurge on something big, give this at-home cocktail maker a chance. Its mixology skills are immaculate, and it works as simply as a Keurig — aka add a capsule, mix in water and booze, and the machine will work its magic.
