A roundup for procrastinators and anyone who hates shopping IRL. 

Putting off holiday shopping is pretty universal, but like other tasks we tend to procrastinate on, it doesn’t get better or easier the longer you wait. In fact, delaying the process usually results in an anxiety-addled scramble to find a gift at the last minute. Think of all the times you’ve locked eyes with another desperate, sweaty dasher scanning the crowded outdoor winter market mere days before the deadline. Instead of giving your loved ones a random artisanal soap you panic-grabbed in the 11th hour or socks you picked up from the sad “seasonal” aisle at the drugstore, you can turn to the internet to find a thoughtful — but quick-shipping — gift.

Log on to Amazon to take advantage of its massive selection and free two-day shipping for Prime members. Whether you’re shopping for a picky partner or a mom who appreciates self-care like Katie, there’s always a good idea to be found among the thousands of products listed on the site. It’s a double-edged sword, though — the sheer volume of items available can be overwhelming to sift through. That’s where we come in.

We searched page after page to curate a list of the very best items that Amazon has to offer. From the latest gadgets of 2024 to UGG slippers up to 40 percent off, here are 15 useful, indulgent, and downright creative gifts on Amazon right now.

Best Holiday Gifts on Amazon for 2024

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask

Amazon

If you want them to have kissable lips, this is a one-way ticket to get them there. Laneige’s cult-favorite lip mask is packed with berry fruit complex, murumuru seed, and shea butter to hydrate and heal lips that have gone through a hellish winter and leave the regular wearer with a softer pout.

Kindle Paperwhite

Amazon

Bookworms, unite! Chances are that your favorite reader is tired of scanning e-books while hunched over their phone in the “shrimp” position. A new Kindle will ensure that they can read for longer — especially given the warm light (to reduce eye strain) and the 10 weeks of battery life.

Apple AirPods 4

Amazon

Better sound quality, new controls, and tracking updates make Apple’s newest AirPods 4 a lavish surprise for any occasion. It took years for the tech giant to drop a new version, and this style is noise-cancelling and can even be used as a hearing aid. Give them to an audiophile, a podcast obsessive, and everyone in between.

Tapper 925 Silver Plated Rope Chain for AirPods

Stanley Quencher H2.0 FlowState Tumbler

It’s safe to say that the Stanley cup is the hydration vessel of 2024, and we can confirm that the newer, 2.0 version is all it’s cracked up to be. The stainless steel tumbler is vacuum-sealed to prevent leaks and insulated to keep your beverages either hot or cold, and it’s very much worth the hype it has received on virtually every social media platform. As one happy buyer reports, “This is easily the best water bottle I’ve ever used. It holds me down for a good portion of the day and the straw actually makes me inclined to drink more!”
