I’m A Shopping Expert—40 Items I’m Pining For On My Holiday Wish List

'Tis the season of giving and spreading joy! As a shopping expert, I love to keep my eyes on products all year long that might make the best gifts for a loved one. While I myself am a BIG gift giver, I've taken the liberty of compiling a holiday wish list of items I'd gladly receive. I usually reserve this list for those in my life who request a little help while on the hunt, but I decided to share it with you in case it inspires any final gift purchases that you've been needing a little help tackling.
From a sultry unisex fragrance and my favorite lip oil to the coolest sneakers on the market, this list is chock full of top-tier product selects that are bound to put a smile on you're loved one's face. Yes, this list is specific to me, but the items are so wide-ranging that they're sure to appeal to everyone from your picky best friend to your cool little sister. Keep scrolling to shop my holiday wish list ahead!
