The best gift you can give the people you love most? The guarantee that they'll have clean drinking water, whether they're hitting the trails, camping in the mountains or jet-setting to other countries. Here's the deal: They probably won't pull it out on the day-to-day, but when they run into anything questionable, they'll be glad to have this portable water filter within reach. Just stick the straw in any body of water — no matter how murky — and it'll remove sand, silt, cloudiness and unwanted germs as they sip.

In case the idea of applying a snail secretion to your skin never crossed your mind, take it from thousands of Amazon shoppers — it's effective! This serum has amassed a cult-like following thanks to its lightweight, refreshing feel and hydrating, rejuvenating effects.

Reviewers reported noticing everything from a brighter complexion to a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and dark spots after using. Good skin care can cost a bundle these days, so to find such a highly-rated product on sale for just $14 is a win in our book.
