It’s officially gift guide season! Oprah Winfrey recently revealed her annual “Favorite Things” list and so did Gwyneth Paltrow with her comprehensive Goop gift guide, which is another roundup we eagerly anticipate each year for its fascinating selection of extravagant beauty and wellness finds. Ahead, we’ve highlighted five of the most luxurious picks worth knowing about, whether for holiday gifting inspiration or just for fun.

LYMA Laser, $2,695 We're no stranger to talking about the benefits of the at-home LYMA Laser, which celebrities are no stranger to using ahead of red carpet events like the Met Gala. As previously told to NewBeauty by the brand's founder, Lucy Goff, “the typical at-home devices have around five milliwatts. This is 500 milliwatts, making it 100 times more powerful than LED.” It's marketed as a medical-grade device, meaning it’s supposedly much more comparable to an in-office treatment than other, much more expensive at-home LED options.

SaunaSpaceFireLight Infrared Sauna, $3,900 If you’re a wellness enthusiast, you’ve likely heard the buzz around infrared saunas. The best and most obvious benefit of this one is that you can enjoy a full-blown sauna experience right at home, no membership required. Yes, it’s a major investment, but if you’re planning to use it regularly, it could be worth every penny. This luxe setup includes everything you need to get your self-care sweat on, even a stool and an exfoliating body brush.

Higherdose Red Light Hat, $449 According to HigherDose, wearing the brand's Red Light Hat for just ten minutes a day can boost blood flow to the scalp, “which may lead to decreased hair loss, optimized hair follicle function and increased growth.” While more research is needed to fully validate its benefits, it already has Courteney Cox’s seal of approval. (She debuted it on Instagram over the summer.) And as New York dermatologist Orit Markowitz, MD, previously told NewBeauty, “red light masks have demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties [for skin] while similar wavelengths stimulate hair growth.”
