We may have bid goodbye to Valentine's and Galentine's Day, but the hunt for the best gifts for her continues. With Mother's Day, an anniversary or her birthday likely just around the corner, there's always a need to keep one eye on GLAMOUR's working wishlist.
Yep, the entire girl band has weighed in on this one to reveal the very best presents, whether purchasing for your wife, girlfriend, mum, best friend, sister, auntie, mother-in-law or grandma. And while we don't like to make a habit of present bashing, we're calling time on gift cards and supermarket flowers. Yep, lazy and low-effort gifts are out for 2025.
So, even if you think she already has everything (spoiler: she does not), we've scoured the virtual shelves and sat down with a host of her favourite brands to locate the very best practical gifts — say a chic dressing gown and cashmere bed socks — to luxury offerings that'll earn you a barrage of brownie points (this includes that viral LED light therapy face mask and a designer handbag that'll go with just about everything). Even better news: most come with next-day delivery, too, aiding even the most disorganised of friends, lovers and family members.

Our team of shopping editors – Sophie Cockett, Georgia Trodd, Mayola Fernandes and Sophie Donovan – oversee this gift guide alongside every other gift guide on the GLAMOUR website to ensure that gift-giving is stress-free. We regularly attend press days and product launches to test, try and use the latest in fashion, beauty and lifestyle to ensure you only buy gifts that are worth your money. When gifts haven't been directly reviewed by a member of the GLAMOUR Shopping team, we rely on customer reviews and tend to stick to brands we already know we adore.
Ahead, the very best gifts for her, selected by GLAMOUR's shopping editors:
What is a good gift for her?
It depends on who you're buying for. Think about her personal interests, hobbies and style; is she into fashion? Would she prefer an activity gift? Is she a beauty fanatic? She'll appreciate something that she can tell you've put a lot of thought, effort and time into, so consider her traits before you browse.
From the finest fragrances to wear-forever jewels.

What gifts do ladies love most?
Ladies tend to love being gifted jewellery as it's often the most sentimental and thoughtful present. That being said, she's sure to appreciate anything she'll get a lot of use out of (like a bag, a notebook or some PJs) or that she'll make memories from (like an activity).
'Cos she deserves it all.

What kind of gift do girls like the most?
Girls, particularly of the teenage variety, are notoriously hard to buy thanks to social media. Again, tap into her hobbies and think about her interests for present inspiration. Is there a band she particularly loves? Would she appreciate a camera to take photos with? What about the latest, trending makeup or a new perfume?
