Stars, they're just like us. As in, they buy things that are available at popular retailers like Nordstrom, Target and even Amazon. Even better, the products that some of your favorite celebrities love—from the Kardashians to Kate Middleton to Matt Damon—also make for great gifts this holiday season. If it's good enough for an A-lister, it's good enough for your giftee.
Below, we've scoured the internet for 15 popular products that are celebrity-approved and that anyone on your list will appreciate this year. Whether it's the wildly popular Barefoot Dreams blanket that Chrissy Teigen loves or the Veja sneakers Meghan Markle is always wearing, these are some of the best star-worthy picks.

1. Chrissy Teigen's and the Kardashians' Barefoot Dreams blanket
As we spend more and more time inside as the weather chills, everyone is going to want a throw blanket to cozy up with. The Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Throw Blanket is possibly the most coveted one on the market with celebrities like Chrissy Teigen, The Kardashians, and Selena Gomez raving about them. They'll be hard to find in select colors (like the popular animal print), so if you want to get it for someone, act sooner than later. I own one myself and it's seriously the softest blanket I've ever snuggled up with.
Get the Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Throw Blanket from Nordstrom for $147
Get the Barefoot Dreams In the Wild Throw Blanket from Nordstrom for $180
2. Kerry Washington's Diptyque candle
Candles always make for a great gift, and one of the most popular—and most luxurious—brands you can buy right now is Diptyque. Not only did actress Kerry Washington dub the high-end candle brand one of her favorite things, but Meghan Markle also used the high-end candle brand to scent her wedding to Prince Harry. You can opt for the exact one that Meghan used at her nuptials (the Baies Berries fragrance) or splurge on the set that includes the candle along with room spray and a scented oval.
3. Meghan Markle's Veja sneakers
If there's one fashion item that Meghan Markle has become most well-known for this year, it's the Veja sneaker. Made of sustainable materials and sporting a sleek, minimalist design, the cult-favorite sneakers are as comfortable as they are chic. I bought a pair for myself and have been wearing them almost every day since and anyone would love opening up a pair of these.
4. Kate Middleton's favorite Essie nail polish
Kate Middleton isn't the only royal obsessed with Essie nail polish—the Queen apparently loves it, too. While the Queen reportedly only wears Essie's Ballet Slippers on her nails (a pale pink hue), Kate opted to paint hers with the Allure shade for her wedding. Get your royally-obsessed giftee one of these shades and they'll know exactly who wore it first. The famous nail polish brand also has over 10,000 rave reviews on Amazon for being both long-lasting and easy to apply.
Get Essie Nail Polish from Amazon for $7.30
5. Oprah's Breville Barista espresso machine
If an espresso machine is at the top of your or one of your loved ones' wishlists this year, look no further than one from Breville, which made Oprah's Favorite Things of 2020 list. While our experts dubbed the Breville Touch the number one espresso maker you can buy, we also tested Oprah's pick (the Breville Barista Pro) and were very impressed by how easy (and quick) it was to use. It has an intuitive smart touch screen, pre-programmed brew presets for the perfect cup, and a quality built-in burr grinder.
Get the Breville Barista Pro Espresso Machine from Amazon for $799.95
6. Jennifer Lopez's Ugg slippers
With many of us spending more time than ever at home these days, your friends and family will love a pair of cozy slippers from Ugg. The beloved brand is famous for its super soft sherpa lining and long-lasting soles and has plenty of celebrity fans, including Jennifer Lopez, Gigi Hadid, Madonna and Selena Gomez, to name a few. Some of the top options for women include the classic Scuffette—which our experts dubbed the best slippers of 2021—and the trendy Fluff Yeah slide, which our testers also love.
7. Martha Stewart's Amazon Kindle
In a past interview, homemaker extraodinaire Martha Stewart confessed she has over 40 books on her Kindle. At Reviewed, we love the e-reader, too, especially the new Kindle Paperwhite. It will give your giftee a seemingly unlimited library at their fingertips and it's waterproof, so they can read anytime, anywhere (even in the bathtub!).
Get the Kindle Paperwhite from Amazon for $104.99
8. Cindy Crawford's Slip silk pillowcase
If it's good enough for celebrities like Cindy Crawford, Hailey Bieber and Hilary Duff, the Slip silk pillowcase is good enough for anyone on your list this year. Silk pillowcases, like this one, are quite popular right now because they feel very luxurious and will supposedly prevent damage to your giftee's hair while they sleep. The Slip pillowcase, in particular, is very trendy, with hundreds of rave reviews at Nordstrom.
Get the Slip Silk Pillowcase from Nordstrom starting at $89
9. Kate Hudson's La Mer moisturizer
La Mer may be expensive, but it's well worth the splurge, according to Kate Hudson, who is reportedly one of the skincare brand's biggest fan girls. She has previously said that she's been using La Mer for decades—and the high-end moisturizing cream is praised by nearly 6,000 Nordstrom shoppers for leaving their skin silky soft and smooth.
Get the La Mer Crème de la Mer Moisturizing Cream from Nordstrom starting at $95
10. Matt Damon's Yeti cooler bag
We’re big fans of Yeti here at Reviewed, and apparently we aren’t alone. Matt Damon also loves the popular cooler brand, specifically the Yeti cooler bag. I own the tote and can attest to just how amazing it is. Not only does it keep drinks ice cold for hours on end, but it’s incredibly easy and comfortable to carry, has a leak-proof zipper and is very durable.
Get the Hopper M30 Soft Cooler from Yeti for $299.99
11. Reese Witherspoon's Lululemon Define jacket
There are a lot of things to love (and buy) at Lululemon, but one of the best-selling among celebrities is the Define Jacket. Worn by Reese Witherspoon, Jessica Alba, Kourtney Kardashian and more, the form-fitting, lightweight zip-up is perfect for everything from working out to running errands. I wear mine all the time and love that it looks very flattering and it’s warm without being too heavy.
Get the Define Jacket from Lululemon for $118
12. Jennifer Garner's KitchenAid stand mixer
If there's one gift to treat the home chef to this holiday, it's the iconic KitchenAid stand mixer. Our experts deemed the KitchenAid Artisan Series as the best one you can buy, but Jennifer Garner swears by her Deluxe Tilt-Head model. Whichever you choose, fans love the KitchenAid stand mixers for how powerful and durable they are and how there are plenty of attachments to do everything from kneading dough to whipping cream. These iconic stand mixers are sold out nearly everywhere, so you'll want to snag one fast.
Get the KitchenAid Artisan 5 Qt. Stand Mixer from Bed Bath & Beyond for $429.99
13. Hilaria Baldwin's Lele Sadoughi headband
A headband that not only looks cute but also is comfortable enough to wear all day without a painful headache? Your giftee will love one in every color, please. That's why Lele Sadoughi headbands have such a passionate fanbase, including style influencers and celebs like Hilaria Baldwin, Drew Barrymore and Bachelor alum Amanda Stanton. You can snag the designer headbands in a few prints and materials including faux leather, leopard and floral lace.
Get the Lele Sadoughi Abstract Leopard Knotted Headband from Nordstrom for $65
Get the Lele Sadoughi Imitation Pearl Headband from Nordstrom for $150
14. Chris Pratt's Bose headphones
According to our experts, Apple AirPods Pro are the best wireless earbuds out there. But while Chris Pratt's pick (the Bose SoundSport) are a little bit bulkier in terms of fit, our experts say they have fantastic sound and are worth the investment. The earbuds have over 30,000 rave reviews on Amazon, too, with fans praising the sound quality and long battery life. They're sold out nearly everywhere, but you can still get one directly from Bose.
Get the Bose SoundSport Wireless Earbuds from Amazon for $129
15. Jennifer Anniston's Hanky Panky underwear
Upgrade that special someone's underwear drawer with a pair (or two or three) of Jennifer Aniston's favorite thong. The Hanky Panky Original Rise Thong, which is made of a super soft and stretchy lace, has even been dubbed "The World's Most Comfortable Thong." And our Shopping Director can attest to that—she owns the one-size-fits-all underwear and says it's a game-changer.
Get the Hanky Panky Original Rise Thong from Nordstrom for $22
