If it’s good enough for Oprah, it’s good enough for us—at least that’s our motto when it comes to gift-giving. Every year, Oprah manages to find the most unique, fun and unexpected presents on the market, and 2022 is no different. All of Oprah’s picks are available on Amazon for easy shopping, and you can filter by categories like “gifts under $50,” “women-owned businesses,” “travel,” and more to find the perfect present. 

Here are the top 12 picks for travelers from Oprah’s 2022 Favorite Things list.

Relax anywhere (even in coach) with the Asutra Sleep Mask Set. Made from 100 percent silk and filled with lavender buds and flax seeds, this eye mask blocks light and provides a cooling sensation to soothe tired eyes.

Capri 2-n-1 Garment and Duffle Bag

Bring your suits and dresses along wrinkle-free with Capri’s multitasking duffle bag. It converts from a garment bag into a duffle bag to accommodate whatever you’re packing. Two interior side pockets keep shoes separated and your clothing clean, and an outer zipper pocket provides extra storage.

Look more pulled together (even when you’re living out of a suitcase) with the Nori Press. This tiny gadget doubles as a steamer and iron to easily eliminate even the most stubborn wrinkles. The Nori Press weighs just 1.4 pounds and measures 14-inches, making it extremely portable.

The cashmere makes the wrap incredibly warm without being bulky, and the stripe design keeps things stylish.
