We called this holiday gift guide for him a roundup of “wellness and grooming” presents because self care is not necessarily a word that resonates with men.
But don’t be fooled! The gift ideas below are all intended for guys to take more time for themselves and pay attention to their body, mind, and spirit.
Expect to find sneaky self care gifts from an at-home sauna to a daily gratitude journal.
This holiday season, you’ll find stylish picks here on Style Girlfriend that will have you (and your loved ones) looking and feeling like a million bucks.
Think: skincare and grooming must-haves, cozy loungewear, and ways to remind yourself daily of the good things going on in your life.
Whether you’re an OG part of the SG community, or new around here (welcome!), get ready to knock out your wish list and your shopping list.

Check out men’s wellness and grooming gift ideas:
Aquafit water bottle, $20 (on Amazon)
Why it’s a great gift: This is not just any water bottle. It’s the Instagram-famous water bottle all the girlies went crazy for this year.
So yeah, it’s sort of obnoxious. But also, it helps you drink a crap ton more water every day.

It’s especially useful if you’re working from home, as you won’t be embarrassed when you have to go pee every twenty minutes.
Joon x Moon bubbling bath fizz, $10
Why it’s a great gift: This is the year guys get into bubble baths.
Seriously, we’re calling it now.
The Ordinary retinoid emulsion, $10
Why it’s a great gift: You may have heard the term “retinol” thrown around, and if so, it means it’s time to start using some.
Add this anti-aging step to your skincare routine with this surprisingly good for how affordable it is serum from The Ordinary.
Higherdose infrared blanket, $499
Why it’s a great gift: Infrared saunas are the sh*t. That’s a fact.
This at-home version gets you nice and toasty chez vous.
.
O’Keefe’s healthy feet mask, $4
Why it’s a great gift: If you buy this for yourself, consider it a present to your significant other as well.
Because without checking personally, we can say there’s a 95% chance your feet could use a little softening.
Or a lot of softening. These single-use socks with their intensive moisturizing will help.
.
The Five Minute Journal, $34
Why it’s a great gift: Starting our day by picking up our phone is almost never a good idea.
In 2022, swap mindless scrolling for intentional journaling with this fast and easy way to start your day in a good and grateful mood.
Philips Norelco OneBlade trimmer, $40
Why it’s a great gift: When it comes to grooming gift ideas, a body trimmer is a great go-to.
Any guy will feel good knowing his most intimate areas are well-cared for by this face and body electric trimmer and shaver.
For the Love of Men, by Liz Plank, $16 (paperback edition)
Why it’s a great gift: NO, we will never stop trying to get guys to read books that help them better understand why they are the way they are.
So, please, stop asking.
Nike yoga mat, $48
Why it’s a great gift: Has your significant other been stealing your yoga mat because he “doesn’t need” his own despite working out from home the last nine months?
Time to remedy that.
NuFace, $288
Why it’s a great gift: Grooming gift ideas can be tough for guys because they (you!) loathe to try new things. Especially things that hum and beep and light up from your bathroom cabinet.
Try thinking of skincare tools like the NuFace as a video game console controller! Something to become adept at handling, not something to shy away from.
And yes, it actually works to make your skin look better, too.
J.Crew Factory blue light glasses, $20
Why it’s a great gift: Here at SG HQ, we’ve been turning to J.Crew Factory for their blue light-blocking glasses for awhile now.
They’re affordable. They look good. They’re not listed as unisex, but they basically are.
Everybody wins!
Old Navy sweatsuit, $95
Why it’s a great gift: Oh, did you think we were done talking about the Old Navy gender-neutral sweatsuit?
Think again.
This bad boy is perfect for a day spent using all the present ideas before it!
