Are you still scrambling for a last-minute gift ideas for your friends and family? Subscription boxes are a great way to send a personalized gift to your loved ones based on their interest. I wanted to highlight a few different options you may not have considered.

Gift Guide: Last-Minute Gift Ideas

For the beauty lover: Play! by Sephora or Oui Fresh Beauty Box

I’ve highlighted these beauty boxes before, but I still think these are a great last-minute gift for your friends. The Play! by Sephora box is not only affordable but filled with your favorite brands you know and love from Sephora. Another unique beauty box is the Oui Fresh subscription that is perfect for friends who buy clean/non-toxic beauty products. Each month their subscribers receive 5-7 products (the December box has 2 full-size products!) that you can try out and add to your beauty routine. This is a great way to also introduce green beauty products to your friends too!
Play! by Sephora: $10/month
Oui Fresh Beauty Box: $19.99/month

For the book lover: Book of the Month

Are you friends with a voracious reader? Book of the Month offers subscribers a choice from five new books each month! This subscription guarantees they’ll always have something new on their bookshelf.
Book of the Month: $16/month

For the plant lover: The Sill

If you have any friends or family that loves filling up their home with plants, this is the subscription for them! They have a few different options to choose from: for beginners, low-light plants, and pet-friendly plants. Each month includes a selection of plants to choose from along with a range of planters of your choice.
The Sill: $35/month and up

For the home cook: Hello Fresh

We love HelloFresh in our home, and I think this would be a great gift for any home cook that is looking to expand their repertoire or a friend who is interested in learning how to cook. Their weekly boxes include a variety of recipes you can choose from, and each box comes with a really easy to follow recipe card that you can save and use again later to recreate the dish on your own.
Hello Fresh: $60 and up (depending on frequency)

For the friend who always has hot sauce in their bag: Fuego Box

Do you have any friends who always have a bottle of Shiracha in their bag? This would be a great gift for any friend who loves hot sauce. This quarterly subscription includes 3 small-batch hot sauces per box, so at the end of the year, they’ll have 12 new hot sauces on their shelf!
Fuego Box: $30/month (also available here)
