I've been seeing some SUPER good birthday wishlist ideas lately. Especially since Christmas just ended. I've been seeing tons of people make videos about what their favorite Christmas gifts were, and there are some seriously good things that would be perfect to add to your bday wishlist.
I've also been seeing videos about birthday wishlists now that Christmas is over, so there have just been tons of ideas all around. Here are the BEST things to add to your birthday wishlist. These are things either I have, I've heard AMAZING things about, or that I've seen other people get as gifts and really love!
This post is all about the best birthday wishlist ideas.
The Best Birthday Wishlist Ideas
1. Hatch Alarm Clock
I've been wanting one of these for a while, and my roommate just got one for Christmas. He is OBSESSED. There are so many features on this you wouldn't even think of. It's a sunrise alarm clock, so it mimicks the rising sun in the morning to wake you up. It also has some other really cool features like different kinds of ambient noise!
This is an amazing thing to add to your wishlist for your birthday if you're someone who is into wellness at all!
2. Ugg Boots/ Slippers
I think these are going to be my next purchase. I've been wanting them for SO long, and I just got some Christmas money, so I'm thinking I'm finally gonna pull the trigger and get them. I also just went on a trip to NYC and EVERYONE was wearing them. Seeing how cute they are in person and all the different ways to style them made me want them even more!
3. Lip Balm
I always have some kind of nice lip balm on my birthday wishlist. I've heard amazing things about the Summer Fridays lip balm!
My boyfriend was very sweet and got me a trio pack of Glossier lip balms for my birthday this year! I'm obsessed with them.

4. Headphones
If you're someone who likes to listen to things with headphones, a new pair could be a good thing to add to your wishlist!
5. Cute Pjs
Having some cute matching pjs sets makes you feel so luxurious. If you're someone who likes to romanticize life and make everything pretty, this would be a good thing to add to your wishlist!
6. Ember Mug
When I first heard of this product, I thought it was the most genius invention ever. It's a temperature control mug that can keep your drinks hot all day long! Apparently, now you can even control the temperature of your drinks from an app. This is definitely a little spendy for a mug, but I think there are dupes! I've not heard if the dupes are any good, though.

7. Oura Ring
After MUCH debating, I finally bought myself an Oura ring on black Friday as a Christmas gift to myself after wanting one for YEARS. I have been obsessed with it since I got it! It is definitely a splurge, but it's one of the best things I've ever bought.
You can keep track of so many different wellness things with it. It tracks your stress, your sleep, your activity, your body temperature, your heart rate, and more. It even gives you a "readiness" score at the beginning of every day!
I'm currently sick, and the ring detected the fact that I was sick and notified me THE SECOND I started feeling sick! I've heard of it notifying people a few days before they even noticed any symptoms.
Anyway, I could go on all day about how much I love this thing. It's super comfortable and stylish, and for me, much preferable over any other kind of fitness/ health tracker. My roommate just got one for Christmas as well, and he is also obsessed with his. So, definitely something to consider adding to your bday wishlist!
8. Reusable Tumbler And/ Or Bottle
If you don't already have one (or even if you do) a Stanley cup might be a good thing to add to your wishlist! A good tumbler is always a good thing to have. I swear by my Stanley cup!
Owala bottles are also super popular. I don't have a bottle, but I do have one of their tumblers, and I absolutely love it.
9. Skincare Fridge
If you're someone who is really into skincare and beauty, a skincare fridge might be a good thing to add to your bday wishlist!
10. Skincare
Similar to the last idea, if you're into beauty, some skincare products would be a good thing to add to your wishlist! I've heard amazing things about both these products.
11. Shark Flexstyle
I've been seeing people get this for Christmas, and so many people absolutely LOVE it. I've heard it's even better than the Dyson airwrap (and literally a fraction of the price).

12. Hair Care Products
This is another beauty thing you could add to your bday wishlist! I've heard great things about these brands and products as well.
13. Gratitude Journal
This gratitude journal is one of my top sellers on my Amazon storefront, and for good reason! It's a lovely little journal to help you manifest, practice mindfulness, practice gratitude, and overall just feel better about life.
14. Kindle Paperwhite
I got my kindle paperwhite for my birthday a couple years ago, and it's still one of my favorite gifts I've ever received! I also got my boyfriend one for Christmas last year, and he's obsessed with his as well.

15. Jellycat Plushie
I've been seeing everyones Jellycats they got for Christmas, and they're all sooooooo cute! I saw tons in person for the first time when I was visiting NYC, and they're all adorable.
16. Cozy Blanket
A new cozy blanket is always a good thing to add to your wishlist. I've heard really amazing things about this barefoot dreams blanket!
17. Digital Camera
If you're someone who likes to take pics, a digital camera would be a really good thing to put on your wishlist! This pink one is so cute, and it is very affordable. If you're wanting something a little higher quality, the Kodak one on the right has AMAZING reviews!
18. Cute Bag
I love puffer totes like this one. I think they're so cute. You could add whatever kind of bag you think is cute!
19. Perfume
Okay, the Sol de Janeiro perfumes all smell so good. I had smelled several of them and wasn't ~in love~ with any of them, so I hadn't bought one for myself yet. However, I just happened to get this one in one of my Christmas gifts, and it smells SO GOOD. It's definitely my favorite out of all the ones I've smelled, and I've been wearing it every day since I got it.
If you'd rather have a more high-end perfume, here are some great options! The Burberry goddess perfume is super popular, and it smells INCREDIBLE. My little sister was wearing it at Christmas, and I literally had to stop her to ask her what perfume she was wearing because she smelled so good. I personally have the Prada Paradoxe perfume, and I get tons of compliments when I wear it!
I've heard great things about all the ones I linked. They're all really popular and would be perfect to add to your birthday wishlist if you're someone who loves fragrance!

20. Cute Hat
If you're someone who is into fashion, a cute hat like this one would be the perfect thing to add to your birthday wishlist.
21. Makeup
I've heard amazing things about both of these products! I really want to try them both.
22. Good Quality Pillow
This isn't the most ~fun~ birthday wishlist item, but TRUST me when I tell you it's worth it (especially if you're a wellness girly). A good quality pillow was my #1 thing on my bday wishlist last year. I wanted to improve my sleep quality and neck pain and just be comfy in general, so I did a TON of research for what pillow to get. The Coop Eden pillow is what I ended up getting, and when I tell you I am OBSESSED with it.
I used to be someone who would be excited to sleep on cozy hotel pillows while on trips. Well, I went on a 2 week trip recently, and the whole time I was thinking about how excited I was to get back to my own pillow. THAT'S how good it is. It's so comfy and squishy, machine washable, and cooling. I no longer wake up with neck pain, and I sleep so much better!
I highly recommend the Coop brand of pillows because I love my pillow so much, but in my research I also heard AMAZING things about the Purple Harmony pillow. It was a bit out of my personal price range, but it'd be a great thing to add to your bday wishlist!

23. Good Luggage
This is on my own personal birthday wishlist this year. Not the most exciting thing ever, but if you're someone who travels often like me, definitely worth.
I just did a 2 week trip abroad with my cheap luggage, and hauling it around everywhere was SUCH a pain. Before my next trip I will be investing in some higher quality luggage that is easier to get around, unless of course I am gifted some for my bday. 🙂
I asked my boyfriend, who has travelled to over 30. countries, what the best luggage brand is, and he said Away (the luggage linked above) is THE luggage brand.
24. Nice Purse
If you're someone who loves fashion, or someone who is just in need of a nice new purse, this would be a great thing to add to your bday wishlist! These styles of Coach purses are SUPER trendy right now, and all of them would make for the perfect every day purse.
25. Tennis Bracelet
I saw soooo many people on TikTok getting tennis bracelets for Christmas this past year. They're insanely popular, and if you're someone who likes nice jewelry, it would be the perfect thing to add to your wishlist.
This Swarovski one (linked above) is gorgeous and affordable.
If you're wanting something more high end, I've heard great things about Mejuri. Their lab grown sapphire tennis bracelet is stunning and more affordable than most, and their diamond half tennis bracelet is so cute and under $1K.
I've also heard great things about the Brilliant Earth tennis bracelet if you're wanting lab grown diamonds. Any of these would be perfect to add to your wishlist if you're wanting a luxury item!
26. Comfy Robe
There is nothing more luxurious than putting on a plush, comfy robe. I've heard great things about this Barefoot Dreams robe, and I'm putting it on my own birthday wishlist!
27. Sneakers
A new pair of sneakers is the perfect thing to put on your bday wishlist. All of these are super popular and super cute! The New Balance 9060s are on my personal wishlist.

28. Ninja Creami
This was on my personal birthday wishlist for years. Luckily my boyfriend got me one for Christmas! I'm so excited to try out all kinds of ice cream recipes!
29. Coffee Machine
A ~fancier~ coffee maker like these is another birthday wishlist idea that is definitely a little pricy, but if you have someone willing to spend that much (or you want to spend that much on yourself for your bday) why not?! This would be a great wishlist item for anyone who loves coffee!
I've heard/ seen great things about both of these coffee makers. I saw a bunch of tiktok about the ninja luxe cafe that really sold me and led my boyfriend and I to add it to our wishlist. The Breville machine is on my bestie's wishlist!
30. High Quality LED Face Mask
If you're someone who is into skincare, a high quality LED face mask would be such a good thing to add to your wishlist.
Apparently, for an LED mask to be effective, the lights have to be a certain wavelength. So, I hate to inform that if you're looking for actual results, a cheap mask probably isn't going to cut it.
This Shark Cryoglow mask has GREAT reviews, and it ranked at the top of the NYT wirecutters list of LED facemasks. It has settings for anti-aging, an anti-inflammatory acne treatment, cooling-only, and regular skin maintenance.
31. Clothes
If you have certain clothing items you've been dreaming of getting, you should def add them to your wishlist.
A pink lululemon was on my bday list a couple years, and luckily my boyfriend ended up getting me one. I am OBSESSED and wear it every chance I get. It's super comfy, and SUPER flattering. I've also heard amazing things about Aritzia sets, so this hoodie and sweats set is on my wishlist.
