15 Nordstrom Gifts You Won't Believe Are Less Than $50

L'Occitane Shea Butter Citrus Holiday Hand Cream Trio ($33)

For the hand cream lovers in your life, this trio of hand creams in limited-edition holiday scents is a must. The set includes one-ounce tubes of hand cream in kumquat, combawa, and citron kuminciana. Slather it on nails, cuticles, the backs of hands, and palms.

Nodpod Sleep Mask ($34)

For a twist on the traditional sleep mask, this version takes a cue from weighted blankets and applies light pressure to relieve tension and stress, blocking the light. Our editor tried it out and even converted her husband after he slept with it for one night. For more details, read her Nodpod Sleep Mask review.

Editor quote: "As someone who has always wanted a weighted blanket but never truly felt like splurging, this product is a great middle ground." — Murphy Moroney, former associate editor, Family

Volo Hero Hair Towel ($35)

If you didn't think a towel could amass a cult following, you aren't familiar with the Hero Hair Towel from Volo. Made from incredibly soft Nanoweave material, it's shockingly absorbent and the perfect thing to wrap your wet hair in after showering. It features a strap for tucking the end of the towel into so that it stays in place and helps to cut drying time in half.

BP. Oversize Cozy Mock Neck Sweater ($37, originally $50)

Soft and extra cozy with its mock-neck style, this sweater has relaxed shoulders and sleeves for a comfy feel. The slightly boxy and cropped fit makes it ideal for pairing with high-waisted pants.

Aire Whirlpool 53mm Aviator Sunglasses ($39)

If you know someone who has been searching for a pair of retro-inspired aviators, they'll appreciate these. They come in two colors: this tortoiseshell pattern with a khaki lens and a black frame option with a gradient brown lens. Our editor tested these out and gushes about them in this Aire Whirlpool 53mm Aviator Sunglasses review.

Editor quote: "I've tried on pairs of aviator sunglasses under $20 that definitely looked their price — I blame the high-gloss shine of the plastic, the thin frames, and the all-wrong lens shapes — but these look much more expensive than they are. When people compliment them, I'm almost giddy to share the price. At less than $40, I honestly consider them a steal." — Angela Elias, contributing editor, Shopping

Kendra Scott Addison Stretch Bracelet ($40)

This stretch bracelet features rhodium-plated beads and a bar filled with cubic zirconias for a touch of bling. It's the perfect bracelet to wear alone for a delicate look or stacked with other bangles.

Dior Lip Glow Oil ($40)

This oil delivers the shine of a gloss without the sticky, greasy feel or the drying effect some lip glosses have. This Dior option is packed with hydrating cherry oil, so lips feel nourished. It even has color Reviver Technology that reacts differently based on the moisture level of your lips for a customized color.

Brushed Cashmere Fingerless Gloves ($41, originally $55)

These fingerless gloves offer a slice of luxury while keeping your hands toasty and your fingers free. They're perfect for slipping into a stocking or you can opt to wrap them up. They come in four different colors.

Ettika Long Zodiac Charm Necklace ($45)

This zodiac necklace is the perfect gift for someone who loves reading their horoscope. Made from 18-karat gold, it features two charms on a 30-inch chain with a lobster clasp.

Pura 4 Smart Fragrance Diffuser ($50)

Forget reed diffusers — this smart diffuser with a seemingly endless array of fragrance options takes the cake. You can pair it with your smartphone to customize the intensity levels, put it on a schedule, choose a lighting option, and more. Our editor tested it out and writes all about her experience in this Pura Smart Fragrance Diffuser review.

Editor quote: "I also love that I can put my Pura Smart Fragrance Diffuser on a schedule. Since our device is in our living room where my family spends the most time together, I've programmed it to diffuse a brighter, crisp scent in the mornings and a warm and soothing scent in the evenings, and then it shuts off during the day when we're all at work and school. If I'm expecting company, I'll schedule the diffuser to kick in just before they arrive so that our house smells amazing without me having to run around lighting candles. It's also a relief not to have to worry about fire hazards with my 3-year-old and 6-year-old running around — something I still get anxious about with candles." — AE
