If we’ve learned anything from the Sex and the City reboot, it’s that the 50s are your golden years as a woman. And just like that…you’ve come into your own with more confidence and wisdom than you had when you were younger. You’re in your prime!

And yet, it’s not so simple to shop for women in their 50s. There are many gift ideas for babies, children, teens, and even 20-somethings. But what do you give the woman who already has everything? There’s where we come in!

How we picked the best gifts for women in their 50s

We did extensive research to discover what products are selling well for women over 50. This included targeted skincare and cozy staples. For some inspiration, we even called our fifty-year-old favorites for advice. Whether you’re treating yourself or someone special in your life, these gifts are perfect for Generation X and Baby Boomers.

Now let’s dive into a deeper topic on a similar subject. According to the Mayo Clinic, the average age of menopause is 51 in the United States — and yet, this natural process is rarely spoken about publicly. “My motherStarted going through, I like to call it ‘the change,’ at 38. So, you know, a lot of people don’t like discussing it,” Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kathy HiltonOnly told Use. “I remember her saying was, ‘I’m melting.’ She’d be putting makeup on and she’d have the fan. That’s not why I have the fan, if you know anything about me with the fan. I can sleep with the fan. So I’ve had not hot flashes, but I am constantly warm. And then my hair gets all curly and I get headache-y and the sleep has been difficult for me.”

We kept this information in mind when we added products to our list that relieve symptoms of menopause for women experiencing discomfort. We’re here for you!

We are pleased to present our gift guide for women in their 50s and beyond. Happy shopping!
