Amazon, Béis
If we’re being honest with ourselves, there is really only about a week left (maybe less) to buy holiday gifts online and ensure that they arrive in time for Christmas, which means the pressure is on. Frantically parsing through the entirety of the internet is a fool’s errand, and we simply don’t have time for it at this stage of the game.
To help ease the strain, we’ve compiled a list of universally-beloved gifts that will make literally anyone happy. Below, you’ll find all the best gifts available this season, from skin care must-haves to wellness gadgets, home items, kitchen essentials and more. They’ll come in handy for everyone on your list, so you can rest easy and knock out the rest of your shopping in one go.

A Lifestraw
While you don’t have to be an outdoorsy person to to have one (it's great to have for travel to places where you aren't sure about tap water), buying a Lifestraw really makes sense for avid hikers and campers. It can remove microplastics, bacteria, parasites and more (including E. coli, salmonella and giardia) from just about any water source. One single filter has a long lifespan, providing about 1,000 gallons of clean and safe drinking water and making it well worth the price tag.
