Honestly, who cares about Valentine’s Day when the day before is so much less stressful? Galentine’s Day (AKA February 13) is the freakin’ best. It’s the ultimate day to show your gal pals how much you care about them and how much you appreciate the fact that they always answer your anxiety-induced texts at midnight. If you want to pamper your BFFs, give them a Galentine’s Day gift that they’ll obsess over for the rest of the year. I mean think about it, nothing beats giving someone a gift they’re actually overjoyed to receive.
We all get gifts that we don’t actually like. It’s part of life. But when those gifts come from our best friends? Ouch. Finding a gift that’s actually useful to a person is an important skill because it rarely happens anymore. People don’t want a bunch of random stuff that’s just going to collect dust in their apartments; they want things that are meaningful. Lucky for you, I’ve taken my vast gift-giving knowledge and applied it to Galentine’s Day. Here are a few Galentine’s Day gifts that are actually cute and useful.

Beyond Yoga Spacedye Cropped Tank
Beyond Yoga Spacedye Lost Your Mind Cropped Tank
Buy Now $70
I never thought I’d be a gym girlie, but last year when I started going to pilates with one of my besties, I realized how fun it is to do something with a buddy besides sipping co*cktails at a bar. This top has a built-in shelf-style bra, and the perfect length that touches the top of the waistband of your leggings. Show your gal pal you appreciate her support and motivation by gifting her a new workout set for your next barre class. We also can’t stop staring at this pair of Sprinkled Hearts PowerShine leggings that have literally thousands of cute little shiny hearts all over. It’s just subtle enough to be worn year-round (yet still make a statement at the gym!).

Sol de Janeiro Delicia Drench Body Butter
Sol de Janeiro Delicia Drench Body Butter
$48Buy Now
Okay, this may have rose to viral TikTok fame when a bunch of influencers claimed that this body butter was so delicious that it attracted spiders, but a) that hasn’t actually been verified, and b) anything yummy-smelling is bound to attract bugs. It is what it is! What we know for sure is that this is the best-smelling body lotion of the year. You will want a few tubs of this stuff, we promise. Not only is the scent divine, but it leaves skin supple for hours and hours, healing and nourishing that dry, cracked winter skin. It’s the best gift.

Fall asleep faster, and stay asleep longer— plus, it tastes delicious (like blackberry lemonade).
