63 best Christmas gifts trending in 2025, curated by an in-the-know editor
Featured in this article
I've been quizzed on the same questions every day for the last month: What are the best Christmas gifts for 2025? What's trending, what's not and what can be delivered in time of the festivities? For context, I should know the answer to all the above, having been a gift guide writer for three years. Plus, with five siblings, nearly all with kids of their own, finding something unique for each is an annual challenge I've come to enjoy.
So, brace yourself for spoilers, as my carefully crafted edit of perfect gifts skips gift cards and useless novelties. Instead, you'll find viral beauty and wellness buys that actually work — we're talking silk sleep masks, electric diffusers and beauty crackers packed with quality supplements to stash inside their Christmas stocking.
But I've also tracked down a host of unique experience gifts, fail-safe stocking fillers and Christmas hampers that satisfy every craving. If that's not your vibe, what about silk pyjamas and hotel-style dressing gowns and flower subscriptions to drag out your giftee's euphoria all year long?
In terms of what's trending this year, it's a slightly different story. Think matcha, Korean skincare gift sets from the likes of Laneige and Biodance, and grannycore activities like knitting kits, jigsaws and LEGO sets.
Yep, I've shared unique festive gift ideas for every single person on your list — including Christmas gifts for her, gifts for men, even people who have everything — in a bid to spare you frantic scrolling. Welcome to the GLAMOUR Gift Shop 2025.

… because there's no way to bring out your inner Scrooge than stressing over late-arriving gifts.
How I chose the best Christmas gifts for 2025 & why you can trust me:
To make it onto this curated list, each Christmas gift was recommended by myself, Sophie Donovan, or another member of our team of in-house shopping editors – Sophie Cockett, Georgia Trodd and Mayola Fernandes and Shani Cohen. Over the past year, we’ve attended various press days, reviewed a wealth of products, and covered the latest launches in fashion, beauty, lifestyle and interiors.
When reviewing products, I consider them all against the following criteria:
| Design | Is it practical, fit for purpose and aesthetic? |
| Price point | Would I be willing to spend that much? Is it good quality? |
| Delivery | How quickly did it arrive, and what were the associated costs? |
| Giftability | Would this make a suitable birthday or Christmas gift? Is it something the recipient actually wants, needs and would enjoy? |
For those we haven’t had the chance to test ourselves, we’ve sifted through reviews and consulted experts to bring you the very best recommendations for everyone on your gift-giving list. Essentially, you can also be reassured that only products and brands I genuinely love and would recommend to friends make it into the Glamour Gift Shop.
Ahead, the best Christmas gifts for 2025, hand-picked by Glamour editors.

Who doesn't want a restock of their favourite must-have beauty sitting under the tree? But even better is finding that wonder buy sat alongside a host more bestsellers. These are our editors' favourites for autumn 2025.
Best gift hampers for stress-free gifting:
Take all the graft out of Christmas shopping by asking someone else to choose your presents and wrap them. These Christmas hampers from the likes of Harvey Nichols, Fortnum & Mason's and Selfridges are an ideal way to treat your parents or Christmas day hosts.
What's the last date you can order gifts to arrive in time for Christmas?
The last dates for ordering gifts to arrive in time for Christmas vary. For example, brands like Amazon and ASOS offer next-day delivery. However, for standard shipping, you should order by December 19th. But with the increased demand on delivery providers, we suggest ordering early to allow for delays or lost post.
