The Goop 2022 Christmas Gift Guide: 10 things we'd actually buy

Ever since its launch from Gwyneth Paltrow's kitchen in 2008, Goop has always championed curiosity and breaking taboos through pop-ups, products, podcasts and more. But every year we look forward to the Goop Christmas Gift Guide marking the start of the Mariah-season.

From thoughtful pieces to extravagant expenses, it's safe to say the range of gifts is quirky to say the least.

Gifts from a porcelain Oyster plate (as you do) and a £1,999 portable skin laser, to a £402 crystal whip (which I don't think is for horse riding) and a £4,345 home Pilates Machine, land in 10 categories such as The Ridiculous but Awesome, The Wellness, The Under-£100, and The Forward-to-Your-SO.

Elsewhere, Goop's sex-positive approach is evident in The Lover category, where remote-controlled couple's vibrators sit alongside the brand's famous This Smells Like My Vagina Candle.

Whilst these Christmas gifts might be on your or your loved one's wishlist, the likelihood is that your budget is slightly more reflective of the current economic climate, and, like me, dropping four grand on a reformer pilates machine just isn't in your future.

Of course, there are some down-to-earth items, including make-up and pyjama sets (perfect for Christmas), jewellery, kitchenware, and Paltrow's own wellness products, on the list too.

Below, we've rounded up 10 of our top picks from the Goop Christmas Gift Guide - including the coveted vagina candle, which is now back in stock - that are actually worth adding to your basket ASAP.
