Oprah's Favorite Things 2019: Holiday gifts under $50

Beloved annual list focuses on health and wellness lifestyle products.

CBD spa treatments, white truffle oil and on-demand cocktails are a few of Oprah’s favorite things.

The queen of all media has released the 23rd annual list of holiday must-haves with a heavy emphasis on wellness and treat yourself-inspired gifts to help everyone live their best life. This year’s list features 79 items, with 25 of them under $50 all available on Amazon.

“There’s a focus on sustainability, healthy living and wellness,” Adam Glassman, the creative director at O, The Oprah Magazine, told FOX Business. “There’s literally something for everyone at every price point.” O recommends a glass straw set over plastic, a streaming spin class subscription service and grapeseed cooking oil to name a few healthy options, a nod to the booming $4.2 trillion wellness industry. This year’s list, featured in the December issue of O, The Oprah Magazine, on newsstands Nov. 19 and on OprahMag.com, has 51 brand new vendors, and the vetting process started as early as March.

“Every single item has to be something Oprah personally likes and would either own herself or give it to someone in her life.  She smells everything, she tastes everything and she tries everything on.”

- Adam Glassman, Creative Director at O, The Oprah Magazine

NEIMAN MARCUS UNVEILS 2019 FANTASY GIFTS

Oprah's annual list has catapulted small businesses over the years.  New York City-based Michael Bagley's hybrid pastry the Bruffin, a muffin and a brioche, was discovered by O's team in 2015 and earned a spot on the coveted list. Now, it's available nationwide, and the brand has since expanded to include jumbo cookie cakes and other snacks.

Jewelry maker Emma Johnson was just 16 when her line of keychains with letter initials Em John catapulted to success after making O's list. Glassman said she was able to pay her way through all four years of college at Boston University from earnings she made through the business.

"I like people to think of it as the icing of on the cake for their fourth quarter," Glassman said. "It’s a fabulous branding and marketing opportunity for them moving forward."
