This holiday season, we’ve found the gifts that feel great to get and even better to give. Shop Well-Received, our collection of editor-approved holiday gift guides, here and shop this gift guide on Pinterest here.

As a Gen Z editor, I've heard it all — especially that us 12 to 27-year-olds are hard and intimidating to shop for. But fear not, because I’ve curated gift ideas that Gen Z won’t hate, and dare I say… actually like. I’ve fully harnessed all of Gen Z’s tech-savvy, self-deprecating yet confident, and passionately outspoken attributes to curate the ultimate gift guide.

Take notes: We like sustainability (because we were born into a dying planet), we live on TikTok (no explanation needed), AND we definitely love a good gift (just like everyone else). Flip through the following slides for a lesson in which presents are at the very top of my generation’s wishlist. There's everything from viral celebrity perfumes and cutesy tech to delicious drink sets and statement shoes — in other words, there's bound to be a thing or two worth buying for your youngest and coolest giftee.

So I present you with the best gifts for Gen Z that won’t gain an eye roll, and will grant you best gift-giver status.
