For People Who Deserve Better Than a Candle That Smells Like Beige
It’s that magical time again, the season of forced cheer, Mariah Carey on repeat, and panic-Googling “funny holiday gifts for people I barely tolerate.” Lucky for you, Explicit Essentials has done the dirty work. Our 2025 Holiday Gift Guide is packed with unique gift ideas that actually make people laugh and smell incredible. Whether you’re shopping for your man, your ride-or-die, your mom who swears she’s “not that kind of mom,” or your sister who could probably run a small country, we’ve got you covered
🍆 For Your Guy: The Nutts to Butts Bundle Box
Listen, we love him—but let’s be real, he could use a little help in the hygiene department.
Our Nutts to Butts Bundle Box is the ultimate self-care starter kit for men who still think “soap is soap.” It includes Sweaty Ball Sack Powder (to keep things dry where it matters), our Beard Butter (so you stop getting exfoliated every time you kiss him), and a few extra surprises to keep him smelling like someone you actually want to sit next to.
It’s practical, hilarious, and just the right amount of dirty.
🧖♀️ For Your Bestie: Bath Salt Trio Set
She’s been your emotional support human all year. The least you can do is give her something that doesn’t require therapy to enjoy.
Our Bath Salt Trio turns any bathroom into a profanity-free zone at least temporarily. Each bag smells like relaxation and revenge plotting, and the labels say what you’re both thinking anyway. Pair it with a bottle of wine and a promise not to talk about men till January.
☕ For Your Mom: The F-Bomb Mom Gift Box Set
She raised you. She survived you. She deserves this.
Our F-Bomb Mom Gift Box is for the woman who’s mastered the art of swearing under her breath while pretending everything’s fine. It’s soothing, sassy, and guaranteed to be her favorite “me time” that doesn’t involve hiding in her car. Perfect for moms who love their kids but also love silence.
🎁 For Stocking Stuffers & Secret Santa: The Shower Steamer Set
You can only give so many vanilla candles and gift cards before people start to notice.
Our Shower Steamer Gift Set is the MVP of gift exchanges funny, fragrant, and totally foolproof. Each steamer turns a regular shower into a full-on spa moment, no bath required. Perfect for coworkers, in-laws, or that one friend who “doesn’t like gifts” (lies).
💋 For Your Sister: The Badass Bitch Collection
She’s the boss, the bestie, and occasionally the pain in your ass but you love her.
Our Badass Bitch Collection celebrates her in all her confident, chaotic glory. Think bold raspberry scents, unapologetic packaging, and the kind of vibes that say, “I don’t chase, I attract.” It’s empowering, it’s hilarious, and it smells like ambition and poor decisions.
