Must read

Stuck on what to buy your loved ones this year? No need to get your tinsel in a tangle because Oprah’s here to help. Every year, we count on Lady O to kick off the holiday shopping season with her annual gift guide — and Oprah’s Favorite Things List of 2024 just dropped.

She’s back with a curated assortment of gift ideas for the whole family, ranging from the latest and greatest in tech to cozy must-haves and clever kitchen tools. There are fur-lined slippers, touchscreen-friendly gloves, ultra-soothing body butter and satin pillowcases to make hibernation season more bearable. Sure, Oprah appreciates the finer things in life, but she’s also included tons of affordable picks that make great stocking stuffers or add-ons for the hard-to-shop-for people on your list.

Keeping that in mind, we’ve sifted through her faves to find the most accessible products — I’m talking $50 or less on Amazon — so you don’t have to break the bank to live like a celebrity. Oprah has a lot of pull (clearly), so grab any standouts ASAP since they’re sure to sell out in the lead-up to Christmas!

We are barreling toward winter, which means it’s time to stock up on all the cozies — flannel pajamas, plush throws and warm slippers. 

“Give a knit slipper with a faux-fur cuff and a memory foam insole —and you’ve just delivered relaxation-in-a-box to your nearest and dearest,” Oprah said. This isn’t the first time Dearfoams has made Oprah’s list, but these slippers perfectly merge comfortable and cute — and they come in 12 colors and prints.

It’s easy for sunglasses and jewelry to get jumbled in your luggage — even for the most savvy adventurers. This accessories organizer keeps things compact while you’re on the road, and lays it out nicely when you’re not. It comes in 11 rich and eye-catching colors from a classic navy to a flashy gold. 

“Travelers will appreciate how this vegan leather case has dedicated space to keep glasses and jewelry from getting scratched, tangled, or lost during their adventures,” said Ms. Savvy Traveler herself.

This talc-free powder is made with zinc and oats to relieve redness and chafing and magnesium to prevent odor. This No. 1 bestselling set of three includes the highly-rated Sandalwood, Lavender and Rose scents, but you can also buy them individually — or you can snag some one-off fragrances like Jasmine or Vanilla.

Oprah says the powder “will leave skin feeling cool, silky and soft.”

When you really want to get your beauty sleep, reach for a satin pillowcase, which are hailed for having loads of beautifying benefits. They are touted for leaving skin crease-free and for keeping hair smooth.

“Satin pillowcases are famous for preventing hair frizz and breakage, and also for sliding right off the pillow, but this silky version has a hidden zipper, so it stays put,” Oprah said.

Not only does this body butter have an uplifting scent, but it’s also packed with good-for-skin ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin A and antioxidants to protect your skin and keep it soft and hydrated. 

“I love a good body butter, and this one comes from a family farm in Petaluma, California. It’s a rich and luxurious moisturizer and comes in a light citrus or verde fragrance,” Oprah shared.

This is the kind of mug you want to sip steaming tea from all winter long. Each one of these ceramic pieces is handmade, so each is really special — for gifting and for keeping for yourself. That can sometimes mean that tableware needs to be handled delicately, but these also happen to be dishwasher and microwave-safe. They come in sets of two in four cozy color options. 

“Ayesha Curry, founder of Sweet July, understands that some of us want our hot coffee (or hot chocolate) to be just that — hot. And is there a better-looking option than these 16-ounce hand-thrown ceramic mugs,” asked Lady O.

No one likes gummy mashed potatoes and this set practically guarantees fluffy potatoes for Thanksgiving and beyond. It also comes with a beautifully displayed and artfully designed recipe for mashed potatoes. Not a mashed potato fan (who hurt you)? They have kits for garlic-lovers, for turkey and for hot cocoa

“Friends or family who value a job well done will appreciate this mashed potato tool set — a peeler, masher and spatula will help ensure the perfect spuds every time,” Oprah shared.

Inspired by her BFF, Oprah picked out these fun 18K gold-plated baubles for your fingers. They’re made with hypoallergenic nickel, which also happens to be cadmium- and lead-free (read: supremely non-irritating) — and they’re size-adjustable, so they’re a slam-dunk gift that will always fit just right.  

“Gayle loves anything with an initial on it, and she’s not alone. Nieces, aunties, friends — they’ll all delight in one of these adjustable personalized rings,” Oprah said.

Not only will sliding your hands into these ultra-soft gloves protect your fingers this winter, but they’re also touch-screen friendly so you can tap and scroll on your phone without having to expose your fingers to the cold. These come in five luxe colors. 

“Send a friend a pair of these luxurious faux-leather gloves with elegant stitching, because there always comes a time when they’ll lose theirs — and that time is always before winter ends,” Oprah wrote.
