Self-care looks different for everyone, so it can be a little difficult to find just the right gift for someone with this goal in mind. There is no one-size-fits-all here.

As with any type of present, keep your recipient's specific priorities and interests in mind as you search. If they're into art, you might get them an art kit or coloring book. Or maybe they're a dedicated homebody and would prefer an air purifier, essential oil diffuser, or plant.

We've found more than 40 gifts ideal for anyone into self-care, whether that's your boyfriend, girlfriend, mom, dad, or anyone else on your list. (Hey, it could even be yourself. That's the beauty of self-care, baby.)
