The wellness gifts we’d happily keep for ourselves

Over the years, we’ve become a little more mindful of the presents we’ve been giving. Now, before ushering in the new year, wellness has shifted from being a “nice-to-have” to something we actively prioritise in our everyday lives. And with the festive rush in full swing, finding a present that genuinely supports rest, balance, and well-being might just be the most thoughtful choice of all. To help you tick that off your list, we’ve rounded up a curated selection of wellness gifts that encourage slowing down, tuning in, and practising self-care in ways that feel realistic and intentional.

Happie Vitamin C Shower Filter, $69, Happie 

It’s time to elevate your shower routine with a filter like these ones from homegrown label, Happie. Designed to attach easily to your showerhead, it helps filter out impurities and chlorine, so you’re showering in cleaner, fresher water. Infused with Vitamin C that’s kind to your skin, it turns a simple rinse into a spa-like moment, without ever leaving home.

Revive Eye Serum, $78, Bareness Skin

We’re all diligent with our skincare routines, but how often do we forget to care for one of the most delicate areas of the face — the undereyes? If you’re guilty of skipping eye serum, it might be time to invest in a good one, like those from Bareness Skin.

Formulated with a unique blend of skin-loving ingredients, the serum features a vibrating massage tip that helps work the product into the skin, fade visible signs of ageing, and boost circulation, which in turn, helps to reveal eyes that look smoother, firmer, and more luminous.

Advent Calendar 2025, $89, Morning 

Who doesn’t need a little pick-me-up? If you’re looking to refresh your coffee capsule stash, Morning’s latest Advent Calendar is a great place to start. Featuring 24 speciality coffee capsules sourced from top roasters around the world, each cup offers a different flavour experience. From rich, toasty notes to brighter, fruit-forward profiles, this advent calendar will definitely make any curious coffee drinker look forward to their morning cuppa.

Calming Chews, $13.90, Hues 

Think you know someone who needs to take a chill pill? Well, now you can (quite literally) with hues’ Calming Chews. These blueberry Earl Grey tea–flavoured chews are genuinely addictive (though it’s recommended to stick to two to three a day) and are designed to help soothe the mind and support relaxation, making it easier to manage everyday stress and anxiety.

TriAction Sleep Formula - Tri-layer Sleep Technology (60 capsules), $92.50, LAC

What could be better than the gift of good sleep? For anyone who struggles to fall asleep at night, this sleep formula helps promote better-quality rest by easing the body into relaxation and preparing you for deeper sleep. Having tried it multiple times myself, I can genuinely vouch for the difference it’s made — my sleep quality has noticeably improved, and it’s changed the way I rest.

Signature Pyjamas Set in Hot Chocolate Avenue, $118, Selenight.Co

Speaking of sleep, the holidays are also the perfect excuse for cosy pyjamas to snuggle up in with loved ones, especially while catching up over your favourite festive films and cups of hot chocolate. One PJ set already sitting high on our wishlist is this one from local brand Selenight.Co.

Designed just for the season, the set features a matching green-striped shirt and shorts, dotted with pink hot chocolate mugs. It feels luxuriously soft against the skin, yet light and breathable enough for Singapore’s warm weather. And if you love a coordinated moment, the brand also offers matching sets for the man in your life, the kids, and even your little furbaby.

Therabody Mini Massage Gun, $279, Amazon

Body aches tend to creep up more often as we get older. Whether it’s sore muscles from a workout or an unexpected strain from simply climbing a flight of stairs, this massage gun is one of those tools you’ll be glad to have on hand.

Emrald Labs Protein Water, $59.90, Emrald Labs from Elite Supplements 

You won’t have to dread chugging protein shakes when you have a lighter, tastier alternative like this protein water from Emrald Labs. One of the brand’s bestsellers, it’s a dairy-free, non-heavy way to boost your daily protein intake.

Formulated with collagen, it also supports skin, hair, and nail health by improving strength and hydration, while helping to enhance joint function, maintain cartilage integrity, reduce joint discomfort, and promote flexibility. What more could you ask for? 

10 Session Credit Pack, $450, Shelter by RF

Cold plunges, saunas, and warm magnesium pools are just some of the wellness trends everyone’s been hopping on in 2025. And if you know someone who could really use some proper R&R, a 10-session credit pack to the newly opened Shelter by RF might be just the thing.

Moleskin x Blackpink, $37.99, Moleskin from Amazon

Taking care of our health goes beyond the physical. For anyone who needs a little space to jot down their thoughts, investing in a proper journal can make all the difference. Moleskine has reimagined one of its classic notebooks for BLINKs, making it perfect for fans of the girl group, or for anyone simply looking for a sleek, stylish journal to use every day.

Owala FreeSip Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle, $42.63, Owala from Amazon
