Update on November 30, 2025 at 7:40 PM ET: I updated prices and checked availability for all products. I also added some excellent new deals, including editor-loved under-eye patches, a hydrating serum, and a water flosser.
Bedsure GentleSoft White Throw Blanket ($12, originally $16)
I love the idea of gifting a blanket for white elephant, because it's something you know everyone already wants. This one from Bedsure is especially cozy, and it's currently on sale for Cyber Monday.
Owala 24 oz. FreeSip Twist ($19, originally $30)
It doesn't matter who you are, everyone needs to stay hydrated. And in my humble opinion, Owala is still the it-girl water bottle to bring to a white elephant gift exchange — plus, there are tons of fun colorways to choose from.
Kendra Scott Elisa Pendant Necklace in Gold, Rose Quartz ($36, originally $60)
If I knew my white elephant group was on the stylish side, this dainty necklace would be such a fun pick. It's classic, it goes with everything (speaking from personal experience), and it's 40 percent off for Cyber Monday.
Clinique Almost Lipstick Tinted Lip Balm ($18, originally $25)
This longtime-famous tinted lip balm is beloved for its "your lips, but better" finish. It glides on like butter, adds the perfect hint of color, and feels so comfortable you'll find yourself reapplying it all day.
Grace & Stella Retinol Under Eye Patches ($15, originally $25)
Our editors (and TikTok) love Grace & Stella's eye masks, and for good reason. They're made with hyaluronic acid, retinol, glycerin, and sea moss, which work to deeply hydrate and plump the skin.
Biodance Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask ($13, originally $19)
Whether you're a beauty pro or a novice, chances are you've seen Biodance's bestselling overnight mask. Just $13 on sale for Cyber Monday, it hydrates your skin and minimizes your pores in one fell swoop.
Apple AirTag ($18, originally $29)
I can't say enough great things about Apple AirTags, the ingenious gadgets that let you track an item's location from your smartphone. This tech accessory is a lifesaver, whether you're keeping track of your luggage, frantically searching for your keys, or even looking for your pet (just attach it to their collar).
Aquasonic Black Series Ultra Whitening Toothbrush ($30, originally $50)
This toothbrush includes 30-second timers and a two-minute automatic shut-off to ensure a perfect brush every time. The powerful motor also offers four brushing modes and 40,000 vibrations per minute, which is pretty hard to beat.
Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Powder Advanced ($36, originally $51)
Jennifer Aniston mixes this collagen powder into her coffee every morning, and now . . . so do I. It contains Vitamin C to promote collagen production for healthy skin and nails, as well as hyaluronic acid to keep your skin hydrated and smooth.
Crest 3D Whitestrips ($33, originally $50)
As someone who drinks way too much coffee and matcha, whitening strips are a must in my routine. Thanks to ingredients like hydrogen peroxide, these Crest Whitestrips lift stains and brighten my teeth without a hint of irritation.
Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence ($13, originally $25)
One of my favorite viral K-beauty finds, the Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence is my go-to for achieving that glass-skin look. It also helps minimize fine lines and wrinkles while giving your skin a natural-looking glow.
Bissell Little Green Mini Portable Carpet and Upholstery Deep Cleaner ($75, originally $95)
Compact and powerful, this handy carpet and upholstery deep cleaner is a must for anyone with pets or kids. It's a powerhouse for spot treatments and a favorite among our editors.
Waterpik Aquarius Water Flosser Professional ($50, originally $80)
This Waterpik flosser boasts 10 settings, so you can adjust to your pressure preference; a massage mode to stimulate your gums; and a timer to help you track flossing time. The results are so worth it.
Apple AirPods 4 Wireless Earbuds ($140, originally $179)
With two listening modes (active noise cancellation and adaptive audio), you can easily switch between shutting everything out or tuning into your surroundings. The improved sound quality and voice isolation also make taking calls in any environment totally doable.
Kitsch Satin Pillowcase ($15, originally $19)
A satin pillowcase is one of those little luxuries I might not buy for myself, but I'd definitely appreciate receiving as a gift. That's what makes it such a great white elephant gift (well . . . that, and the affordable price tag).
Sol De Janeiro Jet Set Travel Shower Kit ($26, originally $34)
As someone who travels often, I swear by this travel shower set. But with three of Sol De Janeiro's bestselling products (the body wash, perfume mist, and Bum Bum cream), I think anyone would love to receive this gift.
Amazon Echo Pop ($22, originally $40)
When in doubt, I think it's safest to go the tech route. This Amazon Echo device can serve as a speaker, set reminders, and even control compatible smart home devices.
Lego Botanicals Succulents Building Set ($40, originally $50)
If budget permits, this floral building set will win anyone over. Not only are the Legos fun to build, but the finished product is pretty enough to display on its own (and it's currently on sale).
Sony WH-CH520 Wireless Headphones ($38, originally $70)
Give the gift of upgraded sound quality — I like that these Sony headphones are light and comfortable, with a long battery life (not to mention nearly 50 percent off for Cyber Monday).
Reacher Wood Grain Sunrise Alarm Clock ($33, originally $50)
For a more wellness-minded group, I'd gift this sunrise alarm clock. It mimics the sunrise to help its recipient gently ease out of bed in the morning, and has 26 gentle sleep sounds to help them doze off at night.
Seenlast Candle Warmer Lamp ($20, originally $30)
This candle warmer is beautiful in and of itself, but it'll also help the recipient's candles last much longer. If I were gifting this, I'd also include my favorite candle (for good measure).
JBL Go 4 ($40, originally $50)
Another tech find I'd feel confident gifting (with a larger budget) would be this JBL portable speaker. It's waterproof, compact, and the sound quality is no joke.
Toloco Massage Gun ($38, originally $60)
I think everyone could use the gift of recovery this year. Whether it's a tough workout class or a long day at work, a handheld massage gun is something everyone would fight over.
The Comfy Store Oversized Blanket Sweatshirt ($40, originally $59)
A blanket I can wear all day long? I'm sold (and I honestly can't think of anyone who wouldn't be).
