I'm a resident writer, cat mom, and obsessive online shopper who is passionate about quirky pet products, home decor, size-inclusive fashion, and, above all, perfumes.

1. Maybelline Lifter Glaze Oil Balm to hydrate your lips *and* give them a pop of color at the same time. It's infused with hyaluronic acid and a blend of deeply moisturizing oils for a nongreasy, nonsticky finish. Plus, the "Acai Glaze" shade is a darn near perfect match for the $25 Clinique Black Honey "universal" shade beloved by TikTok.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "I love this tinted lip balm! It gives my lips the perfect wash of color while keeping them super soft and hydrated. The texture is smooth and lightweight — not sticky at all — and it feels like I’m just wearing a nourishing balm, but with a natural lipstick look. The tint is buildable too, so I can swipe once for a subtle glow or add more for a deeper pop of color. It’s perfect for days when I want a little something without doing a full face of makeup. Plus, it’s great for touch-ups on the go. Highly recommend if you want moisture + color in one easy step!!" —J.P. 

Get it from Amazon for $6.97 (available in eight colors). 

2. A pair of oval acetate sunglasses that are an affordable alternative to the viral Miu Miu sunnies without compromising on style or ~lavish~ vibes. It's a total deal, too — you can stock up on several of these instead of shelling out the big bucks for *one* designer pair. Never let your budget stand in the way of you being a baddie.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Oh, and FYI: Reviewers are saying that these work very well for small heads and faces. If you struggle to find sunglasses narrow enough to stay put, these are for you!

Promising review: "I originally purchased because they looked so designer-inspired. When I received them, I was so pleasantly surprised at how good they are! Great quality, fit nicely, and have a great weight to them! I love that you get two pairs for such an affordable price. Perfect for spring break, vacation, and everyday [wear]. Makes a great gift as well." —D'Arcy Vandenberg

Get a pack of three pairs from Amazon for $18.98 (also available in packs of one or two).

3. A Cartier-lookalike cubic zirconia ring so you can save yourself $1,200+ and spend just $10 instead. It looks *gorgeous* by itself as an elegant statement piece, but you can also stack it with the rings you already own.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "The perfect nonname-brand ring you can find honestly. I wasn't looking for a Cartier knockoff when I found this ring, but I have had people ask me if it's the real deal. I honestly love this ring though, the sizing was accurate, it is weighted well, none of the 'diamonds' have fallen off, and it hasn't tarnished! I've worn it daily for almost a year now and it has held up well. It has some very small scratches on it, but that's typical of most rings. For the price, I am super happy with this ring and I honestly can't believe how well it has handled everything I've put it through." —Eva Richterkessing

Get it from Amazon for $7.49+ (available in ring sizes 5–12, three finishes, and two styles).

4. A Bounce Curl 5-in-1 EdgeLift Brush featuring an innovative curl-defining design with side grooves that separate curl clumps into even sections so you no longer have to spend an hour finger-coiling your curls, coils, and waves. Your hair is sooo worth the all of the work that goes into wash day, so wouldn't it be nice to have something that could guarantee your hard work results in consistent curls every wash day?

Promising review: "Best brush hands down, I am a mixed girl with thick curly hair, and when I run this brush through my hair wet, it does magic. My curls after using this in the shower to detangle are amazing, then I use my choice of product to style it row by row, and it gives me bouncy curls that help cover more scalp but separate effectively. It's extremely sturdy. I break brushes all the time, and this one lasts!!!" —Janay K 

Get it from Amazon for $30 (available in five colors).

5. A wall-mounted coat rack that also doubles as a stunning abstract art piece, so you don't have to sacrifice the aesthetics of your teeny tiny entryway to the Gods of Utilitarianism. It has five flip-down coat hooks, and each one can hold up to 5 pounds for a whopping total of 25 pounds.

Promising review: "I bought one and was so in love with it that I immediately ordered a second one. I love the design when not in use, and when in use, it is sturdy and versatile. I get a lot of compliments from visitors." —Femke

Get it from Amazon for $50.01. 

6. A set of cylindrical wineglasses giving very Crate & Barrel chic (without the price tag).I couldn't help but wonder...if these will be the finishing touch your aperitif arrangement needs for your SATC watch party.  

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Joy Jolt is a small business that specializes in modern and pop culture-themed drinkware and kitchen accessories. 

Promising review: "Crate & Barrel look for less. These look and feel very high-end — almost like a thin crystal." —Lauren

Get a set of two from Amazon for$16.23+ (available in three styles). 

7. A set of hair-tie bracelets, so even if you forget to take them off your wrist in all of your vacation pics, they'll still look intentional. They're soft nylon, so they're tangle-resistant — and they won't leave creases in your hair, either.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Check out a TikTok of the hair tiesin action. 

Promising review: "I love these! These add the cutest touch to any outfit. They make you feel better about wearing a hair tie on your wrist. And they function great as both a hair tie and a bracelet! Not too tight to wear as either. Love them!" —Tiara Scheurell 

Get a set of 20 from Amazon for$6.79 (available in nine styles). 

8. Aprojection alarm clock if you're prone to waking up in the middle of the night — this can be an unusual and easy way to keep track of the times you most frequently wake up. All you have to do is look up!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "The projection on this clock is sublime. If I am sleeping on my side and turned away from the clock, I merely have to cock my head to see what time it is rather than waking up to turn over and look at the clock. I am buying a second clock for my second bedroom. The design is nonintrusive and takes up very little space on my nightstand." —Sheryl S. 

Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in five styles).

9. A shaker of edible cocktail glitter, which will cement your place as the host with the most among your friends and family. I mean, what's better than a house party with mixed drinks? A house party with ✨ SPARKLY ✨ mixed drinks. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Bakell is a small business established in 2016 that specializes in edible glitters for food and drink. 

Promising review: "Don’t think any further and just buy it. This was so cool and everyone loved it! I got the clear one because it will go with any drink. I will be the one to put this in all my friends' drinks. Also had no taste so it was just the look. Sooooooo cool!" —gigi

Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in three sizes and in 27 colors). 

10. A can of whipped 30 SPF sunscreen from Vacation that's SO much more than its (admittedly very cool) packaging. Its light, airy texture makes it easy to smoothly and evenly apply it all over your body for a full 80 minutes of water-resistant sun protection. Plus, it's enriched with hydrating ingredients like coconut oil, vitamin E, and aloe vera for an extra boost of moisture.

Note that the AAD recommends using at least SPF 30 and reapplying as needed for skin protection. You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information! 

Promising review: "This SPF was fun + easy to apply, super blendable, did not feel oily or leave a white cast + smelled amazing! I will definitely be repurchasing." —Anonymous 

Get it from Vacation or Sephora for $22.

11. A retro-style Comfort Pro rocking camp chair with a sturdy steel frame that can hold up to 250 pounds... in style, of course. This cult-fave chair is available in the most adorable colorways, so no matter how you're enjoying the great outdoors, you can always keep it cute.  💅

www.amazon.com

BONUS: The drink holder is big enough for larger water bottles like Stanley Cups!

Promising review: "I have had this brand of chair since they came out because your girl loves to rock. A camping chair that rocks?! Yes please! Now this one is wider, easy to fold, comes with a comfortable strap to carry it by, and this color combination is all my dreams come true. I have gotten so many compliments already. Highly recommend these chairs, always. Also, my daughter poured water all over it, and it dried quickly." —Allyson S. 

Get it from Amazon for $75(also available in six styles and 14 other patterns). 

12. Welly's Color-Changing Bandages that change color in the sunlight and will make getting a boo-boo a little less sucky, no matter how old you are. Welly bandages are also beloved for their high-quality construction, which includes a durable, woven fabric outside and a sterile, nonsticky cushion inside. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

This pack also comes with glow-in-the-dark bandages!

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says, "Hello, I am OBSESSED with Welly's bandages. I am a runner and also a klutz, so I am always blistering and scraping and then wiggling all over the place and losing bandages in the process. But Welly's stick on me like nobody's business. They're truly waterproof — like, long hot showers and big sweaty runs levels of waterproof — and stay in excellent shape for days. Yet somehow they are very gentle to remove, too. A lot of my parent friends swear by this for their kiddos for all the same reasons (plus they're just plain adorable)."

Promising review: "I often have allergic reactions to the adhesive in bandages, but have not had any adverse reactions to these! They stay on wonderfully, and they even stayed in place without issue while showering! Oh, and the color changing in the sun is an added bonus! Wish they came in more sizes!" —Stephanie S. 

Get a set of 140 from Amazon for $21.99. 

13. A brilliantly designed "Candle By The Hour" beehive candle  that can get you up to 70 hours of burn time and is self-extinguishing due to the genius clip attachment. Plus, it comes with little bees you can decorate the "hive" with, as if it couldn't get any cuter.  

www.amazon.com

This is made of beeswax and designed to burn for a total of 70 hours! 

Promising review: "I bought two of these candles, the bigger one and the small one. They are so freaking cute! They look and feel 100% like the pictures! My daughters and I had fun decorating the wax with the toy bees. I lit them for the first time because the lights went out and I was scared at first because I didn't think they would go out, they 100% go out and I was so relieved I lit some more and went to bed. I am just so glad I got these." —Melissa Gray 

Get it from Amazon for $39.66.  

14. A vintage-style 6-in-1 record player so you can use just *one* machine to play your vinyls, CDs, cassettes and even the radio. Plus, with the modern tech of Bluetooth, you can connect it to your phone and play all of your curated playlists from your streaming apps. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I bought this as a gift for my husband. He truly loved it. The needle is very good, and the sound quality is wonderful. It can play records, cassettes, CDs, and the radio. It can also connect via Bluetooth. So many ways to play music. It is easy to use. The value was amazing. It is a little heavy, but the box is very sturdy, and I expect to last a long time." —MAREBARE

Get it from Amazon for $198 (available in six colors).

15. Paper Mate InkJoy Bright Pens that pack a huge, colorful punch with the vivid ink inside those inconspicuous little vessels. Reviewers note that these pens write with a satisfying smoothness and dry down super quickly to prevent smudging those brilliant hues. One reviewereven bought a black-paper notebook to test the bright colors — with great success, might I add. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These are so neat! I bought black sticky notes to go with them. All of the colors are very vivid and show well on black paper." —Sarah Moran

Get it from Amazon for $9.18 for a 10-count (also available in six). 

16. A simple faux diamond tennis bracelet with all the timeless beauty and sparkle of a Swarovski bracelet at a surprisingly affordable price point. It's such a classic piece that you'll be able to wear it literally everywhere — from the beach to date night to your sister's wedding.

Amazon

Emmasays, "For what it's worth, Pavoi — the company behind this piece — has gone TikTok viral time and time again for its classic, modern, and expensive-looking pieces. I personally own almost all my 'daily wear' jewelry from Pavoi and swear by it. Everything is so easy to accessorize and makes my outfits look and feel so much more put together, and the pieces are so durable that they're easily worth twice what I paid. Check out the rest of Pavoi's line of jewelryfor more options, including earrings, bracelets, and anklets!"

Promising review: "This bracelet is gorgeous. I haven’t taken it off since it was delivered. I’ve been asked several times if the stones are real diamonds. The clasp is strong. I’m ordering a different bracelet from the same company." —Becky from Maine

Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in four colors, two styles, and three sizes). 

17. And an understated gold-plated station necklace, so you can rock the ~quiet luxury~ look...while being really quiet about how you didn't pay luxury prices.

Amazon

Promising review: "I bought this before I was gifted the Dorsey necklace and they are almost identical. If you don’t want to spend $$$ on the Dorsey necklace, this is a great option." —Bianca

Get it from Amazon for $14.95 (available in yellow gold, rose gold, white gold, and three other styles). 

18. A color-coded Cuisinart knife set to slice up all sorts of tasty treats while adding a little bit of ~rainbow~ goodness to your knife block.

www.amazon.com

It includes a chef's knife, paring knife, bread knife, slicing knife, utility knife, and santoku knife. Psst — the knives don't come with this a holder, but you can snag an easy-to-install magnetic bar for knives on Amazon if you want to display them like this reviewer did! 

Promising review: "This is my best buy of the month, and best knife buy of the year. Yeah, I've had sharper, better-quality knives in the past, but for hundreds of dollars more. For basic kitchen use, this is the set to buy. I like that they're colorful, because I've already been able to familiarize myself with which knife is which color and what I need to use them for. I haven't had to sharpen them yet and I've been using them pretty steadily for about a month. The blade cases they come with are extremely handy. I like that I don't have to use a knife block. These fit nicely in my drawer. At this price, they are worth every penny. I wouldn't have a problem spending $40–$50 for these knives." —GWP

Get a set of six knives with covers from Amazon for $23.99.

19. A reviewer-belovedsparkling crystal suncatcher so you can have a dazzling array of twinkly light without installing any fancy shmancy LEDs. With the way the room will sparkle, it'll be like you're living it up inside the world's biggest disco ball. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Soooo pretty and makes the room dance with glittery disco spots. It’s such a whimsical little addition to the plant window." —KB 

Get it from Amazon for $12.98. 

20. A set of cheerful Lego botanical "happy plants" to brighten your day, even if you can't keep a real plant alive. You'll have fun building these little cuties before proudly displaying them on your desk or anywhere else in your home. You'll proudly say, "Yup. I made those."

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "As an avid Lego enthusiast, I've had the pleasure of building numerous sets over the years, but this one stands out as a masterpiece. From the moment I opened the box, I was impressed by the thoughtfully organized bags and clear instructions, making the build both enjoyable and manageable. I love plants, so the attention to detail in this set had my heart!" —Jami

Get it from Amazon for $18.39. 

21. An enormous and oh-so-soft "marshmallow cloud fleece" blanket you can snuggle up with and pretend you're napping on a cloud. It's so fluffy that if you looked up the word "cozy" in the dictionary...I'm pretty sure this thing would be there.

Urban Outfitters

Promising review: "If you’re willing to splurge on a blanket, this is the one. My favorite blanket that I’ve ever owned. My dog and cat love it too!" —UO Reviewer

Get it from Urban Outfitters on sale for $149 (originally $169; available in two styles). 

22. Amarble board wire cheese cutter that makes one of the most needlessly tedious kitchen tasks (getting even slices of cheddar, hello!!) a breeze. This slices both soft and hard cheese easily, and it even looks fantastic while doing it. 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Check out a TikTok of the cheese slicer in action. 

Promising review: "My mother-in-law had purchased one last year, and I tried hers at Christmas and fell in love with how easy it was to use. We have a lot of get-togethers with friends, and cheese is a staple appetizer in our house. So I purchased my own and have been using it weekly since. It cuts easily and it's mostly easy to clean. Sometimes cheese gets stuck in the crack, but some scrubbing with a small brush usually does the trick." —Jessica

Get it from Amazon for $22.91 (available in two colors). 

23. A set of Anthropologie-inspired icon glasses featuring a "witch and princess" duo...something about these is wickedly familiar, right? 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Adorable and durable glasses!! Came in great condition." —Jay 

Get a set of two from Amazon for$24.99. 

24. A ceramic popcorn bucket vase with a delightfully vintage design for any lover of maximalism who wants to add just onnnnne more pop of personality to their space. 

Emma Lord/BuzzFeed

Ban.do is a US-based small business that specializes in quirky accessories, home products, and stationery.

I am on a mission to make my living room space as un-boring as possible, and this may be a small piece, but it's got a BIG personality. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun piece of decor!"

Get it from Amazon for $28.95. 

25. A set of silicone teacup cupcake liners to take tea parties to the next level. These are awesome, because after your kids are done roleplaying Sofia the First, you can re-use them to roleplay Bridgerton. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Perfect size and color — so cute! My cupcakes did not stick. I did NOT spray the cups with anything. They were the perfect size. Fluffy. Nonstick. Lightweight. I received several compliments. The cupcakes popped right out of the cups. This brand was perfect! I’m truly impressed." —Denise Mendez 

Get a set of six from Amazon for $9.99+ (includes six cups and six saucers; available in pink and white and in larger sets).

26. A disco ball bar cart — if you're looking for a bar cart that blends in, look elsewhere because this maximalist dream is going to STAND OUT! It's like you put the club in a capsule; bring this delightful lil disco ball out at your next party and watch as the drinks start flowing. 

Glam Globes / Etsy

Glam Globes is a UK-based Etsy shop that specializes in disco-ball themed homewares. 

It can hold three average-size spirit bottles and ten small bottle/tin mixers on the inside. Plus, on the bottom, it can hold six average-sized spirit bottles or six average-sized drinking glasses.

Here's what BuzzFeeder Maitland Quitmeyer has to say about it: "This is the best product I bought this year, actually! It's from a small biz based in the UK and while it did take a while to arrive (as I expected), it was *well* worth the wait. The light bouncing off the mirror fragments and onto my walls is just dang beautiful. Between the bottom tray and the space inside the globe (yes, the globe OPENS UP!), there's a nice amount of storage for bottles and glassware. And unlike regular bar carts, the things you keep inside the globe will actually stay dust free. I bought the 'champagne' color (which is a nice neutral cream-beige) but it comes in tons of colors that'll go perfectly with your home decor."

Get it from Glam Globes on Etsy for $345.77 (available in seven colors). 

27. Birdie, which is an indoor carbon dioxide monitor with a fondness for the dramatics — she'll stand up right when the air quality in your house is safe, and flip over and play dead to signal that you should open a window to get some fresh air in. 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "Super easy to set up, and it works! We set ours up, and after charging it and mounting it, the bird fell down. We opened the windows, and about 10 minutes later, the bird went upright. People have commented how cool it look, going to buy as a gift for a family member as well." —M English 

Get it from Amazon for $199 (available in three colors).

28. A deeply adorable retro-style portable Bluetooth keyboard to bring a little bit of personality to your WFH setup. Maybe you'll actually spend some time at your desk if it *looks* like a fun place to be. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I got this keyboard because of its aesthetic. The look did not disappoint. Love it! Super easy to connect to my iPhone and iPad. It makes my typing and note creating on my phone quicker and cuter. I will purchase another for an upcoming friend’s birthday. I know she’ll love it as well!" —NT

Get it from Amazon for$26.99+ (available in 10 styles). 

29. A three-tiered ring floor lamp, which is the perfect middle ground between the uber-popular modern aesthetic and your desire to have a home that isn't super boring. It's sleek, it's chic, and it's basically begging you to take a peek.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Brightech is a California-based small business that specializes in home lighting. 

Promising review: "The light is nice! It’s a unique looking light. I love how it has three different settings so you can adjust the brightness. It fits perfectly with my reading chaise and goes well with the rest of my living room decor. The only con I have is I wish the cord was clear instead of black, it sticks out. Other than that, I love the light. I’d definitely recommend it to others." —Carmelita Joy

Get it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in four styles).

30. A pair of high-waisted"Secretsculpt" biker shortsthat you'll feel SO cute and confident in. There's no front seam AND there's some butt-sculpting technology in the back to make your junk in the trunk look FIRE. Plus, they're cheaper than the $64 Lululemon Align shorts, too.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "I am actually really impressed with the quality of these. I’d compare them to Lululemon Align. Not too thin, not see-through, plenty of coverage, but also soft and super comfortable. The butt scrunch isn’t super noticeable, which I love, but still gives you a nice shape. I wouldn’t say the fit is like compression, but they aren’t going anywhere. I’ll def get them in more colors, I’m so impressed." —Megan Lindsay

Get it from Amazon for $26(available in women's sizes XXS–XL and eleven colors). 

31. A cloud-shaped magnetic key holder because it's 1) extremely cute and 2) way easier to mount than other key holders: Just peel off the back adhesive, press it to your wall, and your keys will magically — I mean, magnetically — stick to the bottom of the cloud. Now your endearingly Type-B self will have somewhere to specifically put your keys... instead of showing up to every event 20 minutes late because you lost them somewhere in your house again.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I’ve had this key holder since 2017 (it’s 2025 now) and it’s moved with me to every single residence. Somehow, this $8 key holder is one of the best things I’ve ever purchased. After nearly 10 years, my keys hang magnetically still as if it were just purchased — it holds three sets, and all three aren’t light. Obviously, the stickiness of the adhesive on the back wore off after a couple of moves, but that’s easily fixed with superglue or more adhesive. I get compliments on it all the time as well. It works with every decor decision I’ve made as well. I’m actually making this review because I’m buying another as a housewarming gift for a friend and only then realized I’ve had it for so long." —Caitlin

Get it from Amazon for $7.98. 

32. A heart hands statuette you can use to display jewelry (like the super cute friendship bracelets from Taylor Swift concerts that you want to treasure forever) in a uniquely adorable way. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This was perfect for displaying my Eras tour bracelets. Love the color and the quality." —MyLisaSerena

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 10 colors).

33. A set of ruffled pajamas made to resemble the $99 Piyama set. It's giving Sabrina Carpenter — very dainty, very cutesy. 🧸🎀 Tons of reviewers love these for bridal events like showers and bachelorette parties, and even to wear when getting ready on the morning of their wedding.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "So comfortable and so, so cute! From a pajama lover — I think these might just be my new favorites. I’ve tried all brands (designer and otherwise) and these top my list without a doubt. The ruffles are such a cute touch! Highly recommend!" —Melissa 

Get it from Amazon for $25.99 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 16 colors).
