Peta and Maks are also a real-life couple — married since 2017, with three young sons — so it’s safe to say they know a thing or two if you’re still looking for a great gift for your wife or girlfriend. If that sounds familiar, we’re highlighting some of our favorite gift ideas for her from the duo’s list below. Peta, in particular, has partnered with Walmart to share her favorite fashion, beauty and wellness products for a while now, so I definitely trust her guidance in this realm!
Peta and Maks’ Best Gift Ideas for Her From Walmart
Good Molecules Skin Prep Essentials Kit
No matter her skin type, this trio of skin prep essentials from Good Molecules will transform her daily skincare regimen with simple, clean ingredients and a quick and effective 1-2-3 routine. The kit includes Hyaluronic Acid Serum for deep hydration, Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel to reduce any under-eye puffiness (not that she has any, of course!) and a Lightweight Daily Moisturizer to nourish her skin. I can personally attest to the greatness of Good Molecules’ Hyaluronic Acid Serum — it’s a must-have for hydrated skin, especially in these cold, dry winter months. And the best part is that the brand is very budget-friendly, so when she runs out and wants to buy more (and she will), it won’t cost an arm and a leg like other brands.$17.97 at Walmart.com
Avia Women’s ScubaKnit Quarter-Zip Pullover
This quarter-zip pullover delivers the ideal combination of a cozy feel with a polished look. The elevated loungewear is made from soft, smooth, double-knit scuba fabric, which is both structured and a little stretchy to provide comfort for any activity (or inactivity, for that matter). Plus, the neutral color and banded hem keep things sleek and easy to pair with matching joggers and sneakers, or denim and boots. Whether she’s headed to the gym, to brunch with friends or just working from home, this is bound to become an everyday staple in her closet. $19.98 at Walmart.com
Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle
There’s a high chance that some of your girlfriend’s favorite Gen-Z and millennial content creators have been singing the praises of relaxing hobbies like “cozy gaming” in recent years. Whether she grew up with a Game Boy and never looked back, or you’ve noticed she may be interested in picking up gaming as a new hobby, the Switch 2 would make an epic gift this holiday season. From co-op and party games you can play together to narrative games she can curl up with like a good book, there are tons of Switch 2 games to suit her play style when she needs to unwind from a long week. This bundle even comes with one of the best, and it’s a smart buy too; the brand-new Switch 2 sells for $449 and the Switch 2-exclusive “Mario Kart World” goes for $80, so getting them both here saves you about $30.$499 at Walmart.com
Joyspun Women’s Suede Moccasin Slippers
Who couldn’t use a cozy moccasin to shuffle around the house during these cold winter months? The memory foam interior is soft and cushy for maximum comfort, and they have durable rubber outsoles for solid traction, both indoors and out. It also doesn’t hurt that this pair is super stylish, so she can pop out and get the mail without worrying about the neighbors spotting her in some silly or unfashionable slipper.$20.98 at Walmart.com
KitchenAid Deluxe Series 4.5-Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer
If she loves to bake, the iconic KitchenAid Stand Mixer is a pivotal upgrade to her kitchen setup. The durable metal mixers are designed to hit a whopping 59 touch points around the included stainless steel bowl, saving time and frustration as she doesn’t have to keep stopping to make sure every last bit gets incorporated into her dough or batter. The dishwasher-safe, 4.5-quart bowl can also mix up enough dough for eight dozen cookies at once (so yes, you can probably sneak a few without her noticing). It also has thoughtful details like 10 different speeds, a convenient tilting head and the ability to add attachments to increase functionality in the future. It’s still a bit of a splurge, but the current sale brings the price way down — making this a smart buy that will really impress this holiday season.$279 at Walmart.com
