What’s great about a Goop gift guide is that the list itself is as much a gift as the extravagant, over-the-top offerings that Gwyneth Paltrow and her team curate every year.
More important than whether you can actually afford earrings that cost more than four years of college tuition, or how much use you’d really get out of a 24-karat gold necklace that doubles as a vibrator, are the imaginative conversations each of these Goopland creations elicit: who would spend $2,000 on a rose quartz checkers set they’ll never play, and what room is the best place to light a “Smells Like My Vagina” candle?
In fact, the Goop gift guide might make the perfect conversation to have over a romantic Valentine’s dinner, perhaps topped off by Paltrow-approved Roe Caviar.
Thankfully, there are also more realistic gift ideas on this year’s list — ones that don’t cost more than $100 and will still make you feel like the type of person to have a chic LSD trip in the name of self care.
Below, shop the best pieces from Goop’s Valentine’s Gift Guide.
La Boxer Clasica Trio
There’s nothing sexier than a boxer short when worn in the right way. Made from lightweight Italian cotton poplin that’s somehow both crisp and soft, these are designed with a covered elastic waistband functional buttons, and side slits for ease of movement — perfect for lounging, sleeping and even accessorizing for a full outfit when you venture outside the home.
G. Label by Goop Bella Huggies
Sometimes the best jewelry doesn’t make a bold statement. These Bella Huggies are perfect for everyday wear but have enchanting design elements that give them a special edge. They’re made out of 14-karat yellow gold, and have a tubular silhouette with a fixed bauble at the center. But its standout feature are the rings of white pavé diamonds.
Transparent Turntable
If your partner is a vinyl collector, then this sleek, modern turntable is a no-brainer. You can connect it via cable or wirelessly through Bluetooth (it comes with a built-in phono stage). And the design is brilliantly modular, so it’s easy to upgrade (or repair) components as needed without replacing the whole thing.
Loftie Alarm Clock
Could your partner life benefit from disconnecting from their smartphones before bed for more peaceful nighttime routine? This gorgeous alarm clock is thoughtfully designed, featuring a dimmable display, nightlight, two-phase alarm and content player — all in one. The two-phase alarm gently lulls you awake while the second one actually gets you out of bed. Plus, it’s packed with a high-quality white noise machine and bluetooth speaker to play your own podcasts and music.
HigherDOSE 2-Person Full-Spectrum Infrared Sauna
HigherDose is another one of the other most ubiquitous brands when it comes to home wellness technology. The HigherDOSE 2 is designed to bring the soothing embrace of far and full-spectrum infrared heat into the comfort of your own home, combining low-EMF carbon and ceramic heaters. With a complete array of LED options catering to your individual needs — such as the skin-revitalizing benefits of red light — it offers a holistic wellness experience. Plus, it’s enhanced with Bluetooth and AUX inputs so you can effortlessly set the mood within the cabin with your favorite music or guided meditations. Plus, its chic black exterior effortlessly complements any space in your home, ensuring both style and function seamlessly integrate into your lifestyle.
Crave Vesper 2
You’ll likely have many realizations sifting through a Goop gift guide and today’s discovery, thanks to Crave, may be how much you needed a vibrator that doubles as a necklace. Made out of stainless steel and finished in 24-karat gold, this sleek bullet-shaped pendant has four speeds and two modes so you can transition from a night out to a night in with zero fuss. It doesn’t get more Goop than that.
Vitruvi Stone Diffuser
The Move Diffuser wins for the most practical gift on this year’s Goop guide. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have all the extravagant bells and whistles that earned it a spot on the list. The diffuser is cordless and runs on a rechargeable battery, meaning you can display it anywhere in the house without worrying about finding an outlet, while a long battery life promises four hours of constant diffusing or eight hours of intermittent diffusing.
Trove Mini Trunk
For a daily jewelry wearer, the act of picking out metals and jewels in the morning can be a meditative ritual. Even better if it involves a gorgeous jewelry box, like mini trunk from Trove. The smartly designed box has two trays that swing open to reveal a third, removable tray. They’re each divided into compartments of varying sizes, making it easy to keep things organized, and lined in faux suede to keep your pieces protected. Outside, the highly lacquered wood is finished with delicate gold-tone inlay and brass-plated hardware.
Let’s Get Closer: Conversation Game for Couples
Game night gets a little sexier with this innovative couples card game created to “deepen your connection with the person you love most.” The pack features a series of prompts and questions to ask each other, all based on the principles of positive psychology and language. The topics cover everything from love and dreams to life experiences and thoughts, and the cards are categorized into three levels of closeness: close, closer, and closest.
