I’ve Been a Shopping Pro for 6 Years, and These Are the 13 Target Gifts I’m Giving This Year for Under $15

I’ve been a shopping editor for six years, so as you can probably guess, treasure hunting for holiday gifts is kind of my strong suit. Seriously, I’ve seen it all and tested a ton, so I’m well-versed in what’s worth the money and will likely garner praise when it’s time to exchange presents. 

Honesty hour: I’m on a tight budget this year. But I don’t want to let that stop me from picking up something small for friends and family who bring so much joy to my life. That being said, I scoured Target’s virtual shelves to find thoughtful items at refreshingly reasonable prices. Keep reading to shop my favorites this season — they’re all under $15.

Threshold 4-Pack Candle Gift Set

I’d be lying if I didn’t say a candle is a no-brainer holiday gift, but to really make the most of my budget, I’m grabbing this four-piece set. It’s a wonderful option for anyone on my list who appreciates a nice-smelling home, and I can give all four to one person, or split them up among multiple people. The four scents included are: Rainwater Lily, Marine Moss, Desert Amber, and Charcoal Black Teak.

Being Frenshe Lip Mask

Stocking stuffers are arguably the most fun to unwrap, and this year I’m gifting others (and myself) this Being Frenshe Lip Mask that smells like a yummy vanilla cookie. It’s packed with hydrating ingredients that one shopper said “saved my winter lips.” I personally own this already and can’t say enough good things about its long-lasting moisturization and scent. 

Mondo Llama Pressed Flowers Resin Coaster DIY Art Kit

Some of my favorite memories with friends are getting together with a bottle of wine and doing an activity. This resin DIY coaster kit is fun, affordable, and a find we can enjoy at our next girls’ night. It comes with flowers, coaster molds, and resin. One person said it’s a “great way to preserve special moments in time.” 

Open Story Hardside Dopp Kit Case

I’m always a fan of a reliable travel pouch for storing makeup, tech accessories, and jewelry. This hardside case comes in a handful of stunning colors, including an elegant tortoise-shell print. It has a spacious main compartment and a central zipper closure for extra security. Pro gifting tip: Grab one of these in the recipient’s favorite color and fill it with some of your favorite mini beauty products.
