I’m a Shopping Fellow who has scored a lot of holy grails from BuzzFeed Shopping over the years, and I’m eager to pay it forward.

1. A copy of Burn After Writing, a TikTok-famous guided journal chock full of questions and prompts to help you unpack the thoughts scattered across your Notes app and the 20-minute voice notes you keep sending to everyone you know. Consider it a private little dumping ground where you can vent, reflect, and maybe get to the bottom ofwhy you are the way that you are.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This book is a fantastic way to dig deeper without having any worries of being judged. It's a book you can vent to, be 100% honest with, and find out more about yourself. I love it and need more books like it!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for$8.31.  

2. A "Soft" perfume rollerball, because you've always wanted to smell like a very ambitious bakery that makes its own waffle cones. It's a gourmand scent with notes of soft rose, vetiver, amber, and vanilla that dries down to a powdery lemon cake, with some even saying it smells like this $45 bottle of Pink Sugar. And for only $5? Yummmm.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have been obsessed with this scent! I like the feel of the oil on my skin; it's sweet and lemony, and as it fades, it still holds some scent. I always get compliments when I walk by and get second looks. Legit went through my first one so quick (kept applying it everywhere :D) I ordered 2 this time and did an overnight delivery lol." —Nina

Get it from Amazon for $5.50

3. A decadent strawberry milk body cleanser that turns washing the day away into a sweet treat thanks to its creamy texture and berry scent. It’s gentle and moisturizing too, so your skin can emerge feeling soft and refreshed rather than like you just powerwashed it.

Amazon

Promising review: "Very, very good, I love it. Smells like strawberries, but not sweet strawberries. I totally recommend the strawberry girlies who like strawberries but not too sweet. I had no skin irritation. I think it was worth my money. Very moisturizing." —Sofia Ochoa

Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in seven other scents, including the cult-fave banana). 

4. A sparkling crystal suncatcher to hang in a sunny window and scatter tiny rainbows all over your walls as it catches the light. Suddenly, a room filled with piles of unfolded laundry is awash with a dreamy technicolor glow.

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 $15.19

5. A set of pastel rainbow wineglasses that look like they were plucked from the prop table of an extremely glamorous '70s dinner party. Pour in wine, sparkling water, apple juice, whatever. The aesthetic glass has already done the heavy lifting.

www.amazon.com

Check out a TikTok of the rainbow wine glasses in action. 

The Wine Savant is a New York-based small business established in 2017 that specializes in unique, quality drinkware and accessories. 

Promising review: "Love these hand-blown crystal wine glasses. The rim is thin for easy sipping. The colors are sheer and not opaque, which I prefer. They are beautiful. Packed well!" —Cheryl B. Howard

Get a set of six from Amazon for $49.95 (available in 12 styles). 

6. AnEOS Marshmallow "Super Balm" lip treatment from the brand's secret menu, which is a little dramatic for lip balm, but also makes me want it more. The thick, cushiony formula really moisturizes dry lips, while the marshmallow scent makes reapplication a ~gourmand~ experience.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

You can watch a TikTok of the marshmallow lip treatmentto see it in action. 

Promising review: "My new must-have! My number one go-to for healing lips was Carmex. This beat it. I love the consistency (very creamy/smooth), it’s not heavily flavored or goopy, and it obviously smells amazing. It isn’t overbearing and also doesn’t keep coating your mouth like the Eos stick balms (still great, but more wax)." —Breanah Shirazi

Get it from Amazon for $5.79 (also available in Strawberry Acai). 

7. A set of lightweight ruffled pajamas inspired by the pricier $89 Piyama version, with fluttery sleeves and sweet little trim that make it look like something the ingenue in a '90s rom-com would wear while dancing in her kitchen. 

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 19 colors). 

8. A set of pastel glitter highlighters that will make crossing off errands, marking textbooks, and circling “RENT DUE” on a calendar considerably prettier. They’re the stationery equivalent of putting sprinkles on something you were going to do anyway.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These are amazing!!! Beautiful colors, and the sparkle/shimmer is more than I imagined it would be. Mr. Pen did it again! If you don’t have these pens, you need to get them!! Great addition to my journaling supplies!" —FBJH12

Get a set of eight from Amazon for $5.99 (available in four color sets).

9. AnEOS Vanilla Cashmere Whipped Oil Body Butter, aka the wildly popular Vanilla Cashmere lotion's fluffier, richer sibling. It smells like vanilla, soft musk, and caramel, and has a whipped texture that will make moisturizing your legs feel like icing a cake, which is exactly what I ask for in my body butters. 

Amazon

Promising review: "If I could give this 10 stars, I would. The consistency is perfection. It's thick, silky but not greasy, and the scent is dreamy. I think my skin cried when I put it on. I have only used it three times, but I have already ordered another jar so I don't run out!" —The Flying White Boxers 

Get it from Amazon for$12.98

10. A set of flower-shaped dessert glasses with fluted petals around the rim that can make pudding, parfaits, and a scoop of sorbet straight from the freezer look like something catered for a garden party in Marie Antoinette. ✨

Amazon

Promising review: "Stunning! I have been seeing a lot of fun drinkware at stores recently. However, the glass is always paper thin and looks too fragile to be used. So I gave these ones a try. Yes, these are it! The glass is thick, the stem it sturdy, the colors are fun, the shape is interesting. I am obsessed. You'll find me sipping my lemon water out of these from now on!" —Amanda

Get a set of two from Amazon for $21.99 (available in two styles and colors). 

11. A Bob Ross "Paint with Water" book, which requires only a brush and a little water to bring some happy trees to life. It’s a wonderfully low-stakes, mess-free way for you (and your kids!) to do something artistic without scrubbing acrylic paint out of a cup, because you don't even need paint! The colors come out as you brush water over the pages, which feels more than a little magical.  

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Who doesn't love Bob Ross and the ease with which he would paint a spectacular landscape? This is a great way for a person like me, with no artistic ability, the opportunity to paint a beautiful picture. You will get 24 watercolor/painting pages and 12 color pages with your own pencils or markers. A paintbrush does come included with the book, so you can start painting as soon as you get it. It is very calming to dip the brush in water and, with a few strokes, create a watercolor scene." —Erinn

Pro-tip: You can also snap up aBob Ross mini paint-by-number kitand a Bob Ross paint-by-number coloring book if you want a more hands-on activity! 

Get it from Amazon for $10.84

12. Ajewel-studded ring that reviewerssay looks just like the Cartier Love Ring, but this one won't dip into your savings. It’ll give your hand that tiny flash of expensive-looking sparkle every time you pick up your phone, press an elevator floor button, or anything else you'll now be finding excuses to reach for.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "The perfect non-name-brand ring you can find, honestly. I wasn't looking for a Cartier knock-off 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 $7.99+ (available in sizes 5–12, five finishes, and two styles).

13. A daintygold-plated station necklace dotted with tiny stones that give it the same subtly expensive look as diamond versions that can run hundreds of dollars. It's just sparkly enough to make a plain tank and jeans earn a second glance in the elevator mirror without making you look like you're headed to the Tony's circa 1987.

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 rose gold or white gold, and three other styles).

14. A bag of Dr. Teal’s Hawaiian Bliss Epsom salt soakinfused with red sea salt, papaya, and hibiscus, ready to make an ordinary bath smell like you have temporarily relocated somewhere with cabanas and glassy water. Add hot water, lock the door, and let everyone else in the household develop some independence.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

According to the Cleveland Clinic, an Epsom salt soak or bath can help with stress and muscle relaxation.

Promising review: "I bought this product hoping for a fresh, divine scent, and wow, it completely blew me away! I’m usually not one to purchase scented products without smelling them first, but I took a leap of faith, and it paid off. Hawaiian Bliss is everything I hoped for and more. The scent is absolutely heavenly; rejuvenating, relaxing, and somehow energizing at the same time. After using it, I feel calmer, refreshed, and even a little happier. I genuinely look forward to using it. I’m already planning to order more, not just for myself but to include in gift baskets for friends and family. If you’re on the fence, go for it. Highly recommend!" —K. Marie

Get it from Amazon for $5.87 (also available in Spring Rain and Vanilla). 

15. APatchology "Rosé Toes" moisturizing foot mask loaded with shea butter and strawberry oil for the moment you look down and realize your heels have entered their Dickensian era. Ten minutes in these little booties can get them feeling much softer, which is conveniently about as long as it takes to pour a drink and decide you're doing absolutely nothing else tonight.

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Patchology is a small business that specializes in themed beauty products. 

Promising review: "Super hydrating for my feet! You can usually see when my feet are dry, but when I use this, they stay hydrated for a week after use! Love these!" —Michelle 

Get it from Amazon for$8

16. A reversible quilted throw blanket covered in cheerful prints so you can flip between two completely different looks whenever the room starts boring you. It's 100% cotton, lightweight, and one reviewer says it feels like a "muslin baby blanket," rating it 10/10.

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Wow wow wow!!! 🤩 This blanket is so soft and the colors and image is so vibrant! The material is great. Lightweight but also snuggly weighted, I don’t know how to describe it. I almost bought the one from Anthropologie, but this is exactly like it way less price! I think I’ll be gifting a few of these because they are so nice!" —Amy

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in six sizes and 41 styles). 

17. A hummingbird projection lantern to cast a glowing pattern around your porch or walkway when it's dark out. Your yard can have a little storybook magic without needing to install a koi pond, cultivate wisteria, or build a fairy garden. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

You can also get shepherd hooks to hang the lanterns.

Promising review: "Bought this solar lantern with a cutout design for a dear friend who loves hummingbirds and has a small air force of them enjoying the feeders in her yard. This will add some after-dark cheer to their backyard patio oasis. She was very excited when she opened the gift at a birthday celebration dinner. Am looking forward to seeing it in action this spring and summer. It's a very clever idea to have the solar lighting capabilities with all of the precious cutout design of the body of the lantern. The metal body is a neutral color that goes with many garden styles. —SoCal Nana

Get it from Amazon for $15.98+ (available in 21 styles). 

18. A Kitsch metal claw clipwith a sturdy grip and rounded teeth to keep your hair up when you've got approximately 40 seconds before you need to be out the door. The shiny metal finish makes the resulting twist look suspiciously chic, even when your entire creative process was essentially "get this hair away from my face immediately."

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Kitsch is an LA-based, self-financed, woman-owned business established in 2010 that specializes in hair accessories. 

Promising review: "Coming from someone who has broken many plastic clips, I can honestly say that this clip is me proof! I purchased this clip to use at a wedding. I love that it’s metal, which does make it durable; it is elegant; and it securely holds my thin/medium-thick hair." —DiDi

Get it from Amazon for $6.39 (also available in a silver color). 

19. A Tree Hut vanilla hand wash containing hyaluronic acid and ceramides, which combines the humdrum business of washing your hands with the much more exciting business of making the bathroom smell delicious. It’s the kind of soap guests use once and immediately pick up the bottle to investigate.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Love this product! It was extremely easy to assemble, and I think it looks beautiful. I put polished rocks on top with some water in them, and the butterflies enjoy it. I think it’s sturdy and pretty heavy once you plant flowers, especially because it is kind of ornate. I would say it’s small to medium in height." —Kristine M. Cook 

Get it from Amazon for $45.99.

21. A moon-shaped wine bottle holderso you can add a touch of whimsy to your kitchen countertops or table, à la Betty Draper hosting a dinner party. Its premium bamboo finish will complement your favorite cabernet sauvignon, the one with the very aesthetic label.

www.amazon.com

This beehive is really made of beeswax and is designed to burn for 70 hours! 🐝

Promising review: "I bought two of these candles, the bigger one and the smaller 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% went 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

23. Aflower-shaped velvet chair with plush petal cushions and a gloriously retro silhouette that looks like Samantha Stephens could have conjured it into the living room with one nose twitch.

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This chair surprised me! The chair is much more lush and sturdy than I expected and has some nice weight to it! All you do is attach the legs to the top portion, and you are done.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have given up on trying to keep real plants alive, so I decided to give fake plants a try. This is my first one. I am happy with the way it looks. It was easy to put together. I placed the moss in the pot, and that gives it a more realistic look." —Darlene Tangedahl

Get it from Amazon for$19.99+ (available in two sizes and two planter colors). 

28. A vintage-style jewelry catch-all made out of high-quality resin that looks just like porcelain, because your favorite rings and earrings deserve better than being tossed next to a roll of CVS receipts, two rusty bobby pins, and some pesos from that trip to Cancún.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Reviewers recommend checking the measurements and making sure it fits your needs, because it's a bit smaller than you might assume.

Promising review: "Charming and elegant. This looks so expensive. I gave it to my mother for her birthday, and she was quite impressed. She uses it as a place to put her rings when she is doing things in the kitchen. It’s the perfect size, and she was very impressed. I didn’t want to tell her how inexpensive it was, but isn’t that what you want in a gift? A big bang for your buck?" —NMW

Get it from Amazon for$8.39+(available in five colors). 

29. An undated floral plannerthat's almost too beautiful to scrawl "dentist appointment" on, but that shouldn't stop you.

Since it's undated, you can return without the planner judging you.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "EVERY page is unique and so beautifully illustrated! Yes, that means there are 48+ different illustrated layouts. Just enough to keep my adhd entertained with keeping up with a habit. A5 is the perfect size for me: not too small to write everything down, and not too big to carry where I need to. The price was so cheap considering this is one of the few planners on this app with different colored pages." —Frederica Shih

Get it from Amazon for$9.59

30. A pair of barrel-fit sweatpants, because oversized pockets and soft, breathable fabric can soothe the soul whether you're lounging around the house or traipsing through Rome. Some reviewers love them so much that they're buying every color.  

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These pants are so comfy, functional, and cute! The fabric is a nice texture that feels good to the touch. The waistband isn't too tight, and the length is just right. I love that I can dress these down or up (to an extent) and still feel comfortable in the process. They wash fine in the washer, barely get wrinkled, and are heavy enough to wear in the winter. The cut makes them breathable enough to wear in warmer weather as well!" —Carly Dargitz

Get them from Amazon for $26.24+ (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and twenty colors). 

31. APride and Prejudice–inspired book vase that lets a few stems appear to be growing directly out of a beautiful old book, which is an extremely efficient way to suggest that your home life involves much more flower arranging and classic literature than it perhaps actually does. Tuck it onto a bookshelf, nightstand, or dinner table and enjoy your brief transformation into someone with a conservatory.

Amazon

Promising review: "I love this book vase. I added some faux silk flowers, and it looks great. The size is just right on my dresser." —Rachel

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in six styles and in sets of two or three). 

32. A bouquet ofsilky faux tulips with bendable stems you can coax into that loose, floppy arrangement real tulips develop when they're at their absolute prettiest. Unlike the real ones, they'll stay in that charming stage indefinitely instead of spending three days looking glorious and then beginning the grim march toward brown water and dropped petals.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These tulips are very unique and look real! I liked them so much that I immediately ordered another color! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!" —J Gleason

Get a set from Amazon for$9.99+ (available in 22 shades). 

33. A green floral bath matcovered in tufted blooms so stepping out of the shower feels a little like putting your feet down in a tiny cartoon garden. It’s soft, cheerful, and just whimsical enough to distract from the fact that you are still, technically, standing next to a toilet.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "I bought because i'm going for a fairy vibe in my room. It's cute, and pretty much exactly as pictured. It also vacuums easily. I have a cat, who has scratched at this. No shedding. It's nice and plush and overall has stayed in great condition. I love it." —Cc

Get it from Amazon for$16.99+ (available in seven sizes and a pack of two).
