1.  Beats Studio^3 Wireless
   1. The Beats Studio3 Wireless headphones are perfect. I know that AirPod Maxes are beating out the rest of the headphones on the market, but if you don’t have 500 dollars to spare, these headphones are of remarkable quality and come at a much lower price. Beats boasts about their boosted bass, and I have to say that it is as true as can be. They provide solid quality with a range of different sounds, and the over-ear look isn’t bad either.
2. Pit Vipers
   1. Pit Viper is the go-to sunglasses brand for a night out with friends, hitting the slopes, or even running a marathon. These sunglasses are worth all the hype; the durable plastic and adjustable size make sure that you never strain your eyes, even when rowing them up the Potomac.

1.  Hydro Flask mug
2. a.) The perfect gift to welcome the holiday season is Hydro Flask’s new mug. These mugs are perfect for anyone who enjoys drinking hot tea or hot chocolate on the go. Hydro Flasks come in an array of different colors, patterns, and sizes that will suit anyone. These travel mugs top any other brand because they keep things warm for hours and are absolutely adorable. Hydro Flask mugs truly live up to the hype and are the perfect gift this holiday season.

1.  Digital camera 
   1. a.) Digital cameras have been a huge hit in 2023! They allow people to be creative and capture timeless memories in a fun and interactive way. These cameras also provide a vintage feel to pictures and input dates to the photos, so you can remember all the fun times you had. A digital camera is such a thoughtful and fun gift for the holidays that anyone would love!

1.  e.l.f Halo Glow Liquid Filter 
   1. Known as the notorious dupe for the Charlotte Tilbury Glow Booster, you can reap the benefits of that product for a fraction of the price. With minimal coverage, it is meant to even out various skin tones and skin types and provide a glow. It’s a multi-use product that can be used in most steps of your makeup routine, making it the perfect product for the no-makeup makeup look.
2.  Supergoop! Glow Stick SPF 50 Sunscreen  
   1. The importance of sunscreen is often overlooked. Regardless of your complexion; sunscreen should be incorporated into everyone’s daily skincare routine. Day or night, sunny or cloudy, you’re constantly bombarded with UV rays. This is the perfect sunscreen for on-the-go reapplication or even just as an introduction to the habit.

1. Lined Crocs 
   1. These Lined Crocs are the perfect all-around shoes for the winter. Despite their look, they’re a great choice for their capabilities. Designed with functionality and warmth in mind, these soft and lined shoes for men and women are great as slippers but also perfect for running errands. These Crocs are fun to wear inside and out, providing 24/7 comfort and a nice, roomy fit. In short, they’re a solid 10/10 shoe and a perfect gift for the holidays.
2. 40 oz Stanley Tumbler  
   1. Stanley’s 40-ounce Tumblers are all over school, and it’s not hard to see why. This hydrating tumbler blows the competition out of the water and gives a trendy look to whatever outfit you have. Its double-wall vacuum insulation keeps your drinks at the perfect temperature and makes sure you never get dehydrated.
