Less than 24 hours may have passed since we graduated from spooky season, but winter class is already in session; top stores like Nordstrom Rack and Sephora have opened enrollment for their seasonal sales, and even celebs like Gwyneth Paltrow have released delightful holiday gift guides. Today, Oprah Daily released this year's Oprah's Favorite Things List, and if Oprah Winfrey says it's time to start holiday shopping, then it's officially holiday season.
As a beloved show host and shopping queen of all things taseteful, we know Oprah will come through for us with amazing picks every year. While we love seeing the full roundup of her must-have present ideas, we were especially excited to see all the gifts under $50, and we nearly jumped for joy when we found out these items are all available on Amazon. From genius makeup products and wellness tools to delicious food and even pet care, this list is sure to have something for everyone (and fur baby) who made your nice list this year.
