Did you save your holiday shopping until the last minute? Don't worry, I won't tell. Procrastinating probably won't put you on the naughty list, but you may find yourself in hot water with your boo if their gift doesn't arrive until after the holidays. Even if you don't have time to commission a painting or make an elaborate handmade gift, there are still plenty of last-minute holiday gifts to buy your partner for Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa that don't totally suck. They may not be exactly what your partner had in mind, but these clever holiday gifts are still sure to be a hit. The best part: They're guaranteed to arrive soon.

Yes, time is ticking, but there's no need to panic-buy a bunch of candy and infomercial products from the nearest convenience store. And while gift cards and cash are usually crowd-pleasers, I think you can probably come up with something a little more personal for your S.O. For those in desperate need of a gift that's useful, thoughtful, and — most importantly — sure to arrive before the end of the holiday season, then you may want to consider getting your beau one of these perfect last-minute presents.

A Massage Cube

Designed to smooth and soothe, this massage cube is made with organic plant butters and oils and infused with hemp extract, making it perfect for reducing pain in achy joints and sore muscles.

An Instant Pot

Few tools are as useful in the kitchen as an instant pot, and this model (which is available in a variety of different sizes) works like a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, sauté pan, yogurt maker, and warmer all in one.

You'd be hard-pressed to find anyone who doesn't need an oversized hoodie in their life, and this bleach dye hooded sweatshirt is sure to be your S.O.'s favorite new article of clothing.

A Scented Candle

There are few things more luxurious than lighting a swanky candle on a cold night, am I right? With notes of peach, pineapple, and whipped cream, this sumptuous scented candle is sure to make your partner feel lush and loved. (Plus, it’s the perfect way to set the mood on date night.)

Each ~elixir~ is made from all-natural, vegan ingredients and completely delicious. Your partner will undoubtedly enjoy kicking back with one of these drinks, whether or not they’re planning to participate in Dry January.

While I don't encourage procrastination, I do encourage you to consider these perfect last-minute gift picks.
