The 20 Best Gifts For the Ambitious, Successful Women in Your Life

PS Eucalyptus Shower Steamers ($7)

If the only "me time" they get is their shower routine, give them a calming experience with these eucalyptus scented shower steamers. The essential oils in each of the tablets will work their magic to create a soothing, refreshing atmosphere — all they have to do is place one tablet in the corner of their shower, but close enough that the water from their shower head sprinkles on it. Plus, the steamers can last longer if they let each tablet dry in between uses. See the full product details in our review of the PS Eucalyptus Shower Steamers.

Editor Quote: "The steamers are made with invigorating ingredients like eucalyptus-scented essential oils, which are designed to help calm the senses and even clear sinuses. Within under a minute of placing the steamer in my shower, a refreshing eucalyptus scent immediately begins to fill my bathroom space, creating a relaxing ambiance that resembles the environment of a spa. I love that with these shower steamers, I can enjoy a luxurious and soothing experience at home, all without having to spend a ton of money on a proper spa treatment." — Kyley Warren, assistant editor, Shopping

The Good Patch Fan Favorites Travel Size Pack ($10)

Some days you just need a little extra boost — which is precisely what this set of patches aims to offer. Each of the patches work to provide a different sense of calming relief. And they're so effective, one editor even said could replace her CBD — as detailed in this The Good Patch Set product review.

Editor Quote: "As the mom of a toddler, I don't get out a ton, but I did have one evening recently where I was up quite late with my little one, who was dealing with a stomach virus. The Rescue patch came in handy there, providing the remedy I needed to get through the following day." — Cynthia Puleo, former copy editor

The Five-Minute Journal ($28, originally $30)

For a fun and effective way to get their mind working in the morning, they can try writing in "The Five-Minute Journal." If they set the day's intentions, it'll make them that much more excited to tackle them. Plus, it's a great way to practice gratitude — something all of us could use a little more of. And the wellness journal is even a favorite of PS editors. Read our 5-Minute Wellness Journal product review for more inspiration on how to become a morning person with this cool tool.

Editor Quote: "It's a great way for me to set an intention for my day, start with gratitude, and remind myself of what's really worth prioritizing. I find that when I write down my intentions, I really am more mindful throughout the day, and I use the nighttime prompts as a way to reflect on the good, and bad, parts of my day. It truly is a five-minute (max!) commitment, and I have seen my gratitude levels markedly improve since I started using it." — India Yaffe, former associate editor, Shopping

The Headache Hat ($35)

Days spent working desk-side and staring at a computer screen can be a serious stressor — and headache perpetrator.

Sure it looks quirky, but reviewers claim its life-changing. Don't take our word for it — read this Headache Hat product review to learn about the benefits for yourself.

Editor Quote: "While this cooling hat is no replacement for a good pain reliever — or even a prescription medication, if your doctor recommends one — it's become an essential part of my headache toolkit. I would recommend it to anyone. Now how do we petition for this to be acceptable office attire?" — Karen Snyder Duke, managing editor

Revlon One-Step Volumizer Plus ($35, originally $70)

A useful hair tool like the Revlon One-Step Volumizer Plus is the gift she'll thank you endlessly for. It will cut their getting ready time in half, and make it incredibly easy to get a salon quality blowout in the comfort of their home. We even put it to the test to see if it's worth the hype. One of our editors says, "the biggest difference I noticed between this brush and others I've used in the past is how well my hairstyle stayed put...My flipped-in ends lasted even after a night of sleeping on them." Read her review of the Revlon One Step Volumizer Plus Hair Dryer for more.

Editor Quote: "When wash day finally arrived, I prepped my damp, clean hair with a leave-in conditioner, hair oil, and a heat protectant. I then waited until my hair was about 85 percent dry, and I separated it into sections. I started out by running the brush through my ends, then curled and flipped the hair under. I repeated those steps for the middle and top sections, and in the end, I was left with a perfect blowout." — Renee Rodriguez, staff writer and social producer

The Book Club Blue Light Grime in Banishment Glasses ($40)

One PS editor gave her honest review of the product in this Vitruvi Stone Diffuser product review, and admitted that it did help to make her feel less stressed.

Editor Quote: "This diffuser is made from a porcelain material with a stone finish, and the terracotta color reminds me of my love for Southwestern design and goes well with my terracotta planters and vases. I'd describe my apartment as minimal, and I love that this diffuser isn't excessively large and that it doesn't look like a traditional diffuser; instead, it reminds me of a simple piece of pottery." — Tamara Pridgett, former associate editor, Fitness
