34 Unbirthday Gifts To Buy Yourself If It's Not Your Actual Birthday, But You Deserve A Treat
A set of Lego sunflowers so cheerful that they'll put a lil' pep in your step every time you see them. Clinique Pop Lip + Cheek Tinted Oil tailor-made for the lifelong fans of the TikTok-famous "universal" Black Honey lippie that sells out time and time again — this ~juicier~, luscious version gives a dewier finish perfect for the lips and cheeks and a tint that lasts, making it the ultimate in your "no makeup makeup" arsenal. It's basically as if Dior Lip Glow Oil, Benetint, and Clinique Black Honey had a baby. A TikTok-beloved "Soft" perfume rollerball that honestly has no right smelling so delectable and layering so well considering it's only five cash dollars. Reviewers are obsessed with the scent's warm sweetness with a hint of citrusy zest, comparing it to waffle cones, lemon pound cake, and warm vanilla scones ... and this $65 bottle of Pink Sugar 👀. Murdle, Volume 1, a true essential for anyone who relaxes to true crime podcasts or Only Murders in the Building. The book is full of 100 mystery-themed logic puzzles with four different levels of difficulty that they can do solo or with pals, and in order or out of order (although if they do it in order, they get the full scoop on Deductive Logico and Inspector Irratino, whose hilarious misadventures guide you through the book). A set of espresso martini instant cocktail tea bags — all the sophistication of tea, the zing! of coffee, and the 😜 of a cheeky cocktail. All you have to do is add three ounces of cold water, 1.5 ounces of hard liquor, and the tea sachet into a glass, and you'll have a delicious (far more AFFORDABLE!!) cocktail in one minute. The Knights of Tayrealm, an Instagram sensation turned into a coloring book that reimagines of all the different eras of Taylor Swift's career. In the magical Tayrealm, you'll find the Holy Bard humming in Red Land, the Lover Archer guarding her castle, and even the Folklore Fairy on a quest to find Woodvale. A pair of luxe retro-style oval sunglasses giving Miu Miu vibes without the $489 price tag. The devil's in the chic details on this one, including the little gold embellishments on the sides and the nostalgic shape of the lenses, which are softer than the typical skinny oval lens. A copy of Burn After Writing, a guided journal that tens of thousands of reviewers swear by — through a series of questions and thought experiments, it encourages people to take time away from their screens to explore their feelings, both new and old, so they can embrace meaningful ones and try to let others go. Or a copy of The Book of Myself: A Do-It-Yourself Autobiography in 201 Questions to help you reflect on your life with thoughtful prompts like, "If I could have changed my profession midstream I would have become ..." and "This present I got from my parents really sticks in my memory." It's a perfect way to organize your own story *and* to make sure it's preserved for people who will want to know it down the line. A set of hair tie bracelets designed to look like *actual* jewelry, so you won't be kicking yourself when you realize you left a hair tie on your wrist for every photo. A NeeDoh "Dream Drop," another release from the *elite* Needoh sensory fidget toy line for anyone who wants to add more calm and focus to their day. This goo-filled, delightfully colorful fidget has a satisfying squish with a "slow rise" before going back to its original shape. Reviewers also love that it doesn't have the kind of stickiness that picks up debris and makes it hard to clean. A mini Bob Ross paint-by-numbers kit for anyone on their "happy accidents" beat — this itty bitty set comes with everything you need to create three tiny masterpieces of your very own. L'Oreal Paris Makeup Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara in a new brown shade so you can have all the *vavoom* of thick, full lashes with that romantic ~softness~ of the more muted shade. Similar to the iconic black shade that made it famous, this mascara doesn't smudge, clump, or flake for alllll day wear, and washes easily to be extra gentle on lashes. Death Wish Instant Coffee Packets so downright (dare I say, DANGEROUSLY) delicious that even the biggest coffee snobs you know might trade in their precious pour-overs. That is, if they can handle the 300mg of caffeine per cup 👀. Sol de Janeiro Delicia Drench Shower Oil to thrill and delight you with its "oil to foam" blend, which lathers like a body wash and leaves your skin feeling silky smooth and nourished. If you haven't already tried Cheirosa 59 body mist, the cult-fave blend of vanilla orchid, sugared violet, and sandalwood this shower oil is based on, you are in for one luxurious treat! A set of flower petal dessert glasses so you can serve up little puddings, ice creams, and yogurt parfaits and decorate them with edible flowers for your Meghan Markle era 🌸. Reviewers also use these for cocktails and juice! A personal popcorn popper from BuzzFeed's Tasty line so compact, affordable, and easy to use that you might just want to equip every room in your home with one. All you have to do is fill the kernels up to the max fill line and let it do its magic. It even has a built-in measuring cup you can use as a butter-warming tray! A Grim Steeper silicone tea infuser to remind you that life is, in fact, too short to skip on your delicious morning cuppa. "The Peckish Pirates," a brand spanking new addition to the cult-favorite Magic Puzzle series so beloved on TikTok. Like the others before it, this isn't just a puzzle, but a whimsically illustrated, colorful journey — there are tons of Easter eggs in it, a collection of miniature scenes full of optical illusions and surprises, *plus* a magical twist at the end. You'll have to solve the puzzle to find out! Touchland Body & Hair Mist in Peachy Lychee — yes, plot twist, the iconic brand responsible for your favorite hydrating hand sanitizers just released a "Power Essence" line of straight-up decadent smells, and this one is top tier. It is soft, sweet, and delicious at the same time, and so well-balanced and alluring that I'm like, girl, please. Stop sniffing yourself in public. An effortlessly chic Nine West watch that not only pairs beautifully with your jewelry, but will help knock you out of that habit of checking your phone for time a thousand times a day and getting distracted by your notifications. Laneige's Glaze Craze Tinted Polypeptide Lip Serum in two *new* flavors — Strawberry Sprinkles and Blueberry Jelly — that are true contenders in the PANTHEON of amazing shades and flavors this line already has. (Shoutout to the ever-sold-out "Raspberry Jam!") This super nourishing, beautifully tinted, and buildable lip line is perfect for anyone who wants a bit of plump and plenty of moisture and shine in their lip routine. An oh-so-snuggly Kindle, iPad, and phone lap pillow holder so you can stream content or read the latest fairy, dragon, and/or "dead girl found in the woods" book in the *ultimate* comfort. This can rotate and easily adjust the angle of the screen, and even comes with a little spot to hold a snack! A cheeky pair of double-buckle slides that look like what happens when a Birkenstock from the 2000s falls in love with a jelly sandal from the '90s in a forbidden time-crossed romance. A cowboy boot vase for the precise floral yeehaw energy we're all going to need to reminisce on Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter Tour. A charming and oh-so-comfortable tennis skirt with built-in shorts — reviewers compare the buttery soft quality to Lululemon's Align Skirt, and love the secret inner pocket on the shorts for stashing keys and tennis balls. Anthropologie's Icon Juice Glass in all kinds of delightfully whimsical themes, because if there is one thing I know for sure, it's you can never have too many of these adorable glasses!! Lip Smacker Rolly Lip Gloss so cooling, so silky smooth, and so darn nostalgic that you'll want to try one in every fruity flavor — just don't come crying to me when you accidentally fall into a time machine and wake up in a Backstreet Boys video. A 5-pound bucket of Crayola Air Dry Clay to let you finally follow your inner pottery dreams without all the mess and effort of taking classes. After you pull the clay out to shape it, it'll harden on its own — no oven or any effort required! From there you can leave it as is or paint over it for a fun vibe. A newly-updated bow throw pillow for anyone whose coquette era is so strong that it doesn't even take a pause when they sleep — these originally only came in solid colors (peep my pink one on my bed at home below), but are so popular that UO just realized patterned versions! A gorgeous statement checkered cutting board designed with deep grooves for juice, hidden handles on the bottom, and end grain to "heal" cuts from knives. A true overachiever considering it's worth the buy for decor purposes alone!! A sheer lacy mock neck top just *begging* to be mix-and-matched with your favorite bras, dresses, and tops to add a dainty layer of ~intrigue~ to even the most run of the mill 'fit. A set of pastel glitter highlighters I saw on Instagram and NEARLY BLACKED OUT from the cuteness. If you like highlighting your planner pages, favorite passages from books, or lines from your journal, please do yourself a favor and purchase these subtle but oh-so-sparkly colors to jazz them up ✨. A set of vinyl coasters to give your coffee table a delightfully retro nostalgic touch *and* protect it from the perils of condensation mid-party.

What to Buy at the Nordstrom Sale, According to Cosmo's Editors
We told ourselves we'd be good this month…but then Nordstrom had to go and drop its Anniversary Sale beauty lineup. Rude—but also, thank you. This isn't just another clearance event—it's the annual retail ritual where Nordstrom flips the script and offers deep discounts (up to 60 percent off) on some of our all-time favorite beauty goodies. That means makeup, skincare, haircare, tools and devices, and ofc, fragrances—all at prices that will make your beauty budget want to praise twerk. The Anniversary Sale has been around since the 1960s (!!!). While it originally focused on fashion, the beauty section has quietly become one of the most covetable corners of the sale, thanks to limited-edition exclusives and bundles you truly won't find anywhere else. The beloved retailer curates over 400 beauty exclusives, and the sets mean you get to stock up on essentials for a fraction of the price. The Cosmo beauty team is already snagging our favorite holy grail items and gifts for our besties, loved ones, and beyond. Therefore, here's a round up of the deals we're most excited about. And as a special bonus, we hit up Nordstrom's National Beauty Director, Autumne West, to see what items she thinks are can't-miss! Shop everyone's favorites below: I'm obsessed with this blush, so the fact that you can get two of them for close to the price of one is a pretty epic deal. I love layering both shades together for an extra flushed, doll-like look. This is my favorite of all the blow-dry brushes on the market. It makes DIYing a 90s bouncy blowout so easy and is excellent at smoothing frizz and flyaways too. I'm buying this now and gifting it to all the special people in my life for the holidays. There's nothing chicer than Diptyque, and these scents are total classics. One of my friends exclusively wears this sweet, strong fragrance when we go out because she says it's a "husband magnet." IDK about that, but it does get me loads of compliments when I spray it on. Makes sense: It's actually the most popular fragrance in the world right now. Which is exactly why it feels so freakin' cool that you can get it for such a great deal during the Anniversary sale! You know those products you use every day and just kinda forget about because they're so integral to your routine? That's me with this curling iron. I genuinely use it at least four days a week, but it's never something I think about when someone asks me what to buy. BUT seeing as this is such a great deal, I'm singing it from the rooftops rtfn. And FYI for everyone embarking on travels this summer, it's dual voltage and can be used in Europe. I was around for the 2010s Benetint craze, and I'm also leading the charge in the 2020s. It's truly one of the best lip and cheek stains I've ever used (and there are about a gazillion on the market now). It has a soft flush that works on a variety of skin tones and stays on lips and cheeks for hours, even through eating, sweating, etc. Having two might seem redundant, but I end up keeping one in my purse at all times and the other in my makeup vanity. Or if you're not selfish, gift one to a friend! Mojave Ghost is really and truly that girl. It's soft but sexy, woodsy but fresh—and this trio has everything: the full-size, a travel spray (for your bag), and hand cream (*chef's kiss*). I swear, people are always asking what I'm wearing when I have it on. Truly a vibe! This isn't 'just deodorant' — it's iconic. In fact, a stick is sold every two minutes. Yes, it's that good! It smells clean and cozy—like fresh laundry and fancy hotel sheets. And it actually works. I keep one in my bathroom, one at the office, and one in my gym bag. Trust me, you'll be obsessed. This skincare trio is straight-up magic—and it's from a clean beauty brand that's perfect if you've got sensitive skin. The cleanser is gentle but gets the job done. The serum is super glowy. That face oil? Whew. My skin eats it up. And the price for all three is wild! I've been using this serum for about a month now, and it's truly a miracle in a bottle. As soon as I apply and let it soak into my skin, my face is automatically glowier and softer. As for the long term results, it's a growth factor serum loaded with peptides, which is proven to promote collagen production and smooth the skin. It's pricey, but it's truly a workhorse formula, and you're saving $120! I always wait until a sale to buy fragrances, because why buy a bottle for full price when you can save $86 with this duo? Nectarine Blossom and Honey is my favorite Jo Malone fragrance, it smells juicy, fruity, and crisp without being overly sweet. If you're looking for a light summer scent (I honestly wear this year-round), this is the one to splurge on. Thank me later. Another splurge item, because why wouldn't you want to save nearly $200 on pricey beauty tools? This set comes with the NuFace Trinity which lifts, tightens, and tones the face for a more sculpted look in just minutes. It also comes with a red light attachment, a lip and eye attachment, and skincare products to use in tandem. If you want to snatch your face at the best price, there's no better time than right now. I can't shop and not get lip glosses. I love them. I layer them. I basically collect them. So, to see Kaja's Juicy Glass Lip Oil in a set I'm definitely snagging it. You get a brownie nude and pink for a perfect finish and shine. Plus your lips will be hydrated and plump plump PLUMP! I know everyone loves this brand's oil, but do not sleep on its body moisturizing serum. It's great for smoothing your skin's texture and has so many yummy ingredients. I use it daily. And you should too! With this iconic you've got to trust the process. My lashes have never looked so good! No extensions or even mascara needed. The serum is part of my daily skincare regimen and I always have one on deck for when I'm traveling and on the go! Shop everything at Nordstrom until August 3 at up to 60 percent off!

Previously, Julee was Beauty Director at Cosmo and Global Beauty Director at Essence and has held various editorial positions at Huffington Post and Real Simple.

A benzene-free, travel-friendly applicator of I Dew Care's dry shampoo powder so easy to use that you can just dab it on your hairline and rub it in for an instant, oil-absorbing refresh. Now your "no wash" days are a secret that you and your roots will never tell. 👀 A painless, mint-flavored teeth-whitening pen reviewers swear by as an alternative to pricey professional treatments and strips. This gets results from the very first use, lightening up years' worth of stains from coffee, tea, wine, or just, you know, existing as a human with teeth. An "Exfoliate & Glow" premium scrub mitt for sloughing off dead skin (one reviewer saw all the dead skin left in their shower floor and dubbed themselves a "Lizard Person" after shedding it).

First Aid Beauty's KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub Exfoliant helps exfoliate and smooth skin by dealing with rough patches or dry bumps at a price point a *lot* cheaper than expensive prescription creams and washes. A lot of reviewers with keratosis pilaris and similar skin textures swear by this for relief, with many noticing a difference after the very first use. Ocusoft Lid Scrub Pads that reviewers with dry, itchy, and irritated eyes swear by — they're designed with a modified version of coconut oil to not only cleanse your eyes, but soothe and refresh eyelid discomfort. Yes, even the "I just spent 12 hours staring at Big, Medium, *and* Little Screen" kind. First Aid Beauty's Facial Radiance Pads, a set of compostable (!!) beauty prep pads you can use before putting on makeup to gently tone and exfoliate your skin, making it the ultimate primer for getting the most out of your foundation. Bonus — unlike a lot of toning products, these are super gentle and sensitive skin-friendly! A collagen coating hair rinse that kicks ordinary conditioners to the curb — this mix of collagen, vitamin E, ceramide, and natural seed oils so thoroughly moisturizes, smooths, and strengthens hair that reviewers compare it to expensive salon brands.

This Iconic Benefit Product Just Had An Update – And It's Better Than Ever
Few beauty products enjoy the same level of fame and success as Benefit's Benetint. While there are lots of lip stains available in 2025, from peels to felted markers, it was Benefit's OG product that put the revolutionary long-wear, budge-proof formula on the map in 1976. 49 years later, the San Franciscan brand's first-to-market beauty product shows no sign of waning and it's got the numbers to prove it. Boasting a whopping one billion views on TikTok, one bottle of this blush sold every 11 seconds in 2024 and three million vials sold that year alone. It seems the buzz around the internet's favourite lip-to-cheek multitasker is about to reach fever pitch, as Benefit introduces two new shades into the fold for the first time ever: Raspberry and Dark Cherry, which are on sale right now for £19.10 at Sephora. Cementing its iconic status, the brand has teamed up with Desi Perkins, mega influencer and founder of @deziskin, to create the DEZI X Benetint Dark Cherry Sunglasses and Lip & Cheek Stain Set, which includes a pair of cherry-pink coated Dezi sunglasses, a custom pink case, and a full-size Benetint Lip & Cheek Stain in the new Dark Cherry hue. While the $95 limited edition kit is exclusively available at Sephora USA, the collaboration has already helped to ensure that Dark Cherry is a sell-out success. Sameeha Shaikh, beauty writer, using Dark Cherry The new colour expansion welcomes hues of ruddy brown in Dark Cherry, and berry pink for Raspberry, giving us a whole new way to enjoy the cult classic. Unlike other Benetint iterations like the Floratint and Playtint, the two newcomers share the same well-loved formula as the original, that being a natural-looking flush of long-lasting, non-drying colour that is smudge, transfer, water and humidity-proof. If you're into a monochrome make-up moment (guilty as charged), the multitasker can be swiftly swiped across lips and cheeks for a lightweight sheer look that can be built up all while guaranteeing a believable second-skin finish, thanks to its barely-there watercolour-resembling stain. Jean and Jane Ford, the twin founders of Benefit, actually created the Benefit Benetint as a nipple enhancer for exotic dancers, but almost 50 years on it's the secret to perking up our complexions. A flurry of A-listers including Winona Ryder, Nicole Kidman and even Rachel Zegler are known to love it, the latter of whom used it to create Snow White's classic red-lipped look in the 2025 live-action remake of the Disney classic. Swatches of Benefit's new Benetint in Raspberry (top) and Dark Cherry (bottom) Sameeha Shaikh, beauty writer, says: 'I am quite serious about blush; I often forgo all cheek products (like bronzer and contour) but will never complete my make-up without a stippling of something flesh-toned across my cheeks, nose, lids, temples and chin. I did say serious, didn't I? To feed my addiction while avoiding blush blindness – there's a fine line, I know – I have long held on to clever formulas that lend a breathable, buildable, natural skin finish, and that's where Benefit's original Benetint comes in. I've used it years and was doubtful that the OG stain could get any better, but I'm happy to report I stand corrected. While the original Benetint promises to stain cheeks with a perky rosey red colour that is perfect for summer, the new shades offer deeper, muted hues that I will likely lean on year-round. I've taken to Dark Cherry, a ruddy brown that works beautifully against my medium, olive complexion. It packs all the staying power of the original, meaning one application in the morning is enough to last me through most of the day, but offers up more options that will work across a plethora of skin tones and make-up moods.' 1. Benefit Benetint Price: £19.10 What the brand says: The long-lasting, non-drying lip and cheek stain promises a smudge-, transfer-, water-, and humidity-proof formula that lends a lightweight, sheer, and natural-looking flush that can be built up. Sameeha Shaikh, beauty writer, says: 'I've used Benefit's original Benetint for years and was doubtful that the OG stain could get any better, but am happy to report I stand corrected. While the original Benetint promises to stain cheeks with a perky rosy red colour that is perfect for summer, the new shades offer deeper, more muted hues that I will likely lean on year-round. I've taken to Dark Cherry, a ruddy brown that works beautifully against my medium, olive complexion. It packs all the staying power of the original, meaning one application in the morning is enough to last me through most of the day, but offers up more options that will work across a plethora of skin tones and make-up moods.' Pros Long-lasting Non-comedogenic Cons Budge-proof, quick-dry formula means there is less play time Sameeha Shaikh is Grazia's beauty writer, covering all categories to bring you insights on the latest trends, industry news and the products you need to know about, viral or not (most probably viral).
