Best Gifts For Adults Under $50

The 22 Smartest Gifts For Every Adult in Your Life — All Under $50

As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.

As you narrow in on all your holiday shopping, and cross everyone off your list, finding those perfect presents can be difficult. Often times the hardest people to shop for are adults, because you want to get them a gift that's cool and actually useful. Finding these winners though is easier said than done, so that's where we come in.

Ahead, we curated a list of top picks we think they'll love. From live plants that will deliver to their doorstep to monogrammed mugs and even some relaxing beauty gifts, they will just be happy it's something they can get some good use out of. The best part: it's all under $50, so you don't have to worry about overspending, too. Keep reading to shop them all.
