www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I've been buying these for years. They replaced my Ray-Bans that look identical! Fit great and with the price point, I don't have to worry too much with my kids and being on the go!" —Jessica M

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in 16 sets, as well as two-packs and individual pairs). 

2. Ohora semi-cured nail strips offering a professional-looking manicure, even if your past at-home attempts yielded less-than-stellar results. Apply them like stickers, seal them under a UV lamp, and you're done! These waterproof strips will look and feel like a gel manicure and last up to two weeks. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Love these nails! The picture is them after a week (still going strong)! I put them on for my honeymoon. I’ve been in the ocean for hours, and they are not showing any wear. They took maybe 15 minutes to apply — I did use a gel top coat and I think that helped keep them from chipping this long. Will be buying more!" —Amazon Customer

Get them from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 38 colors).

3. A hotel-style new duvet cover because your old one is looking a little tattered, no? Despite costing less than a room service chicken club, this microfiber cover has over 50,000 5-star reviewers raving. They say it's buttery soft and comparable to ones from high-end brands. 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising reviews: "I am enjoying the comfort, warmth, thickness, and quality of this duvet. No need for a hotel stay when you can have the same comfort and style at home!" —CW

"10/10. Would buy again. I absolutely love this duvet cover. I bought it to replace my West Elm duvet cover and can't believe how much I love it. It is incredibly soft and was easy to put on my duvet with the ties that come built-in. It is a great quality for a very reasonable price. I bought a full-size duvet cover for my queen-size duvet, and it fits perfectly to give that fluffy duvet look." —Laura Baggaley

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes Twin–California King and 27 colors).

4. And a set of extra soft "hotel" bedsheets with so many 5-star reviews (almost 250,000!), you'd think they were capable of permanently curing insomnia. No promises, but some people are saying they never want to get out of bed. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "I never write reviews, but I am the snob of all snobs when it comes to soft sheets, and these make me not want to get out of bed. Nine months pregnant and with complete insomnia, but these sheets make me not want to get out of bed ever. I just can't believe the prize. Seems like good quality. I'm in bed heaven!" —Samantha

"Feel like expensive high-end hotel sheets. I normally use flannel sheets year-round because it’s the only material I like but these are my new favorite. Very soft. Fit our bed perfectly. I purchased both for our bed and our spare room and have only gotten compliments from guests. Great sheets without the huge sticker price." —Anna

Get them from Amazon for $39.97 (available in 15 sizes and 40 colors).

5. And to complete the bedding trifecta, a set of wildly popular "hotel" pillows so you can feel like you're falling asleep at the Ritz. Reviewers rave that these are the perfect balance of fluffy and firm, meaning you can prop yourself up for a good in-bed TV binge. Plus, they're breathable and cooling!

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "These had great reviews, but I was still a bit skeptical. I'm a bit of a pillow snob. These pillows — these amazing, heavenly pillows — are now my favorite part of going to bed. Soft but firm. How does that work? It gives support for me to sleep slightly propped up but I sink into this comfortable personal cloud. Soft but firm. My head isn't sinking through the pillow to rest on my mattress, but I feel comfortably enveloped. Heaven. I bought two but think that would be too much fluff, so now my husband and I each have one. Buy them. Add to cart. Buy now with one click. Stop the research. You've found the pillows you were looking for." —Marissa Urey

"God himself must use these pillows. I have (or had, haha) insomnia, not to mention a bad neck/back *and* hot flashes. The comfort and the cooling is AMAZING (even with a silk pillowcase). Thank you, TikTok, for influencing me!!!!" —Rickie White

Get a set of two from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in three sizes). 

6. E.l.f Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara, which creates tubing around your lashes to make them appear longer, thicker, and darker. The lightweight "extensions" won't smudge or weigh down your actual lashes and — best of all — they fall right off when you wash your face. Priceless! 

Emma Lord/BuzzFeed

Check out a TikTok of the E.l.f. tubing mascara in action. 

BuzzFeed writerEmma Lord loves this mascara and says: "I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact readily spent $26 on the famous OG blend from Blinc every time it needed replacing. I didn't even love it for the length half as much as the fact that tubing mascara like this genuinely never smudges, but can I just say — regardless of price, the E.l.f. tubing mascara formula blows all the others I've tried out of the water. It gives me way more length and volume than other brands, slides on so much more easily, stays put ALL day, and never, ever smudges. My favorite part, though, is how gently and easily it comes off with soap and water. In the past, other mascara removals have felt rough on my lashes, but this comes off so fast that I'm like ??? was I even wearing mascara a minute ago?? Anyway, I hesitate even writing this review because I want to gatekeep the hell out of this before it sells out, but the world needed to know. I'm a big fan of the brown shade (which is what I'm wearing above!), but it also comes in black and soft black." 

Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in three shades).

7. A cult-favorite luxury-scented candle reviewers love for its intoxicating and long-lasting smell (think: Le Labo's Santal 33). It has an impressive throw, meaning you can actually fill your home with its calming jasmine, oud, and sandalwood scent instead of having to stick your nose right up to the flame.

www.amazon.com

If you're wondering what oud is, think of the smell of fallen trees in the woods after a hard rain. 

Lulu Candles is a US-based small business that specializes in scented candles and perfumes. 

Promising review: "I was staying over at a friend's house and sitting next to her coffee table. She had this candle on the table and even though it wasn't lit I could smell it, and it was so delicious that I instantly went online to find it and bought it for myself! If this came in a perfume I would buy enough to last the rest of my life. I don't know how to even explain the scent but if you are an amber/patchouli/vanilla fan, this is absolutely for you. The jasmine adds an unbelievable freshness without a flowery scent. I even bought the shampoo and conditionerwhich I will probably use as more of a body wash and shaving cream but that is how desperate I am to get this scent on me!" —Melissa I. 

Get it from Amazon for$16.95+ (available in seven sizes, in gift box options, in packs of two, and in a variety of scents).  

8. L'Oreal Paris Bright Reveal — a new dark spot correcting serum that aims to be like a professional peel in a bottle. The blue gel uses 25% AHA, BHA, and PHA to chemically exfoliate and help reveal brighter, smoother skin. Expect compliments with words like glowing, radiant, and wellness influencer.  

L'Oreal, Amazon

Of course, this won't literally work like a professional peel, but it'll be a gentle, affordable alternative. Remember to spot check before using on your whole face.

Promising review: "This does not disappoint. I'll admit I haven't been using it long enough to see a huge difference in my hyperpigmentation (I have a few light patches). I am also using this in conjunction with other products that help with dark spots. However, the biggest surprise was how incredible my skin looked and felt immediately after using it — so smooth and even. I have sensitive skin and recommend following all product instructions. I have not had any issues using this product. This is hands down the best new product I have added to my skincare regimen." —Lizzie

Get it from Amazon for $19.99.

9. A pair of whitening gel pens that use carbamide peroxide to remove stains and bring you one step closer to a movie star smile. With daily use, you can whiten your teeth up to eight shades lighter. Reviewers say the process is super easy and doesn't cause sensitivity, unlike professional whitening sessions. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

To use, brush your teeth with the pen, ensuring every section is fully covered. Keep your teeth exposed for 30 seconds, then thoroughly rinse and avoid eating or drinking for 30 minutes. Final stage? Blind everyone with your gleaming pearly whites. 

Promising review: "Let me just break this down for you...I've been using this product for years now, and it, in a word, is a dream. It's a ridiculously easy daily application that you only have to wait 30 SECONDS with. It really whitens without any nonsense, and I have NEVER had an issue with it making my teeth or gums sensitive. Also, let me note that I've had my teeth professionally whitened with the UV light, and that didn't do anywhere near the whitening that AsaVea is producing. I just recommended this to my friend two weeks ago even and she is already noticing results. Get this like immediately!" —Chetty Vendetti

Get them from Amazon for $11.77.

10. A Baccarat Rouge 540-inspired moisturizing body wash offering an affordable solution to your dependence on that beloved (but pricey) fragrance. Thanks to the notes of white jasmine, red currant, and sweet amber, shower time has never smelled better. 

Amazon, Emma Lord/BuzzFeed

BuzzFeed Shopping writerEmma Lord loves this body lotion: "I bought this after being peer-pressured by all the lovely reviews and I'm happy to report it lives up to the hype. The scent is lovely — it has depth with a hint of floral, but it's light and not at all overpowering. My favorite thing about it is how easily it pairs other scents, because I am a body mist gremlin who swaps out her scents every day. The lather is also deeply satisfying, and I feel quite refreshed and squeaky clean without ever feeling dry." 

Promising reviews: "Cremo's body wash is nothing short of exceptional. If you’re a fan of luxurious fragrances, this product will quickly become your new favorite. It boasts an incredible scent that perfectly mimics Baccarat Rouge 540 — a fragrance renowned for its sophisticated and captivating aroma. What sets this body wash apart is not just its stunning scent but also its longevity. The fragrance lingers beautifully throughout the day, ensuring you stay enveloped in that luxurious aroma long after your shower." —Ralph D. Thompson II

"Perfection!!! Seriously PERFECTION!!! I just jumped in the shower as soon as I got it. Let me just add it to subscription." —Quiihw25

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in two scents). 

11. A set of lovely silk tulips that look like the real deal but, unlike live flowers, can stick around for many years to come. Keeping a regular rotation of fresh flowers can be pricey! Spritz 'em with a little perfume and guests won't even be able to tell they're imposters.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I've seen these all over TikTok and had them in my cart for months…ended up buying them and THEY ARE WORTH THE MONEY. Soft, soft, soft and look so real, I’m going to buy more." —Brittney Jackson

12. Synthetic extensions if you want to look like you spent top dollar at the salon. These clip-ins provide instantly perfect beachy waves with zero effort and minimal cash. With over 12,000 5-star reviews — and many citing easy installation, comfort, and ability to style with heat — I'm inclined to think these things are well worth the little you have to pay! 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Okay, so I am very picky about hair extensions. I've spent hundreds of dollars on numerous sets and have never been completely satisfied. UNTIL NOW! These are BY FAR my favorite — and for such an amazing price! If you're worried that this deal is too good to be true (because I was), then stop worrying! And buy these extensions. Also, I have very short hair, and it still looks great! They're very full and luscious. And you can straighten them! I'm very happy!" —Makenzie Long

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in six lengths and 32 colors).

13. A Bodum kettle with the same aesthetic sensibilities as the pricey Fellow Stagg Gooseneck Kettle but at a fraction of the price. While the Bodum doesn't have to-the-degree temperature control or regulation, it still has a large capacity, precise spout, and rapid boil ability (around two minutes!). 

www.amazon.com

I've had this kettle in my kitchen for years, and it shows no signs of age! It boils water super quickly, has a nice cork handle, and pours like a dream. When it comes to boiling water, I don't need a lot of bells and whistles. Being able to press a button, walk away, and come back to hot water in two minutes is all I need from my kettle. I love the precision spout and sometimes even use the kettle as a watering can to reach my higher-up plants. 

Promising review: "I’m a coffee professional too broke for a Fellow to use in my home coffee setup. Been using this baby for a few months, and I’m satisfied! Easy pour control, good size and heft for this purpose, and heats up decently quickly, without annoying sounds. Recommend for someone who wants low fuss performance." —jessica

Get it from Amazon for $39 (available in two colors).

14. Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel in case you've always wanted to not only drink the energizing tea, but also wear it.

Finally, your eyes can look and feel as refreshed as you do after a bottle of White Label — and for roughly the same price! 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Good Molecules is a small business that specializes in affordable skincare products.

Promising review: "I love this product and have noticed a huge difference when using it consistently. I am on the younger side and don’t have the worst under-eye bags, but on those occasional mornings when my eyes are puffy with somewhat visible dark circles, this product definitely does the trick! Honestly, I love all the Good Molecules products." —Hayden Smith 

Get it from Amazon for $5.98. 

15. An 18k gold-plated cherry keychain because dropping almost $100 on the one from Coach is honestly kind of ridiculous. Reviewers say this one is almost identical! 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "When I initially bought it, I was nervous that the brass color wasn’t going to match with my Coach bag, but once it arrived, it was perfect; it looks almost like the real one and doesn’t feel cheap at all, I’m very happy with my purchase, and I'd 100% recommend this to someone looking for an alternative to the Coach cherry charm!" —Veronica G.

Get it from Amazon for $9.99.

16. The Wand, if you insist on drinking two-buck Chuck despite the dire consequences. This mini handheld filter could possibly reduce your wine-induced headaches by removing histamines and sulfites in alcohol, aka the stuff that can potentially cause a nasty hangover. It'll be like you sprang for a really fancy bottle of natural wine! Bonus: It claims to revive oxidized wine, so you don't have to toss an open bottle.

Promising review: "OMG!!!! This works. I love wine, but have terrible allergies to the histamines, sulfites, and preservatives in wine. I actually use one wand for two glasses of wine. I was very skeptical, but it works like a dream! Thank you PureWine. This is really a breakthrough for me." —Penny Froh

Get it from Amazon for $24.70+ (available in six different styles and quantities of one, two, or three).

18. E.l.f.'s Hydrating Core Lip Shinein the "Ecstatic" shade, which reviewers say works as a very good, affordable replacement for Clinique's "Black Honey," the $25 "universal shade" that has a Shakira-level of fame and adoration. This $7 alternative is nonsticky, moisturizes with vitamin E, and melts onto your lips like buttah. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I absolutely love this product. The dark color is perfectly sheer. It also adds the most beautiful color to your lips. I am a Clinique Black Honey lip fan, and this gives me the same look for a fraction of the cost. I love it and have multiple that I keep in various spots. Not sticky either, which is my biggest gripe about lip glosses. My hair doesn’t get stuck in this like some glosses, but I get the shine." —Hamps5

Get it from Amazon for $7+(also available in five other shades). 

19. A pair of Cushionaire cork-bottom sandals that are not only supremely comfortable, they're also an affordable alternative to Mayari Birks. The similarities go past just looks: They also have 100% genuine suede soles, so your feet are still treated to the best. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I bought these sandals before a three-week trip in Europe; I didn't want to pay for Birks but did want something in a similar style with good arch support. I was a little skeptical about the low price but gave them a shot...and they were the MOST comfortable sandals I've ever owned. I walked over 120 miles in them in three weeks on our trip and never once had foot pain. They broke in so quickly and were very supportive from the get-go — and still are! Highly recommend." —Han Lin

Get them from Amazon for $34.98 (available in women's sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and 21 styles).

20. Stained glass window film you might be able to pass as the real thing — at least at first glance. It's also the coolest version of privacy film I've ever seen, so it's worth it even if you don't trick your neighbors. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

The window cling is adhesive-free and easy to remove. 

Promising review: "It's beautiful and installation was really easy. I love it. It is wonderful!!! The pattern changes color as the sun passes throughout the day. Really pretty." —Lily Fred

Get it from Amazon for $18.99+(available in five sizes and eight designs).

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These are absolutely BEAUTIFUL! If I didn't know any better, I would have said these are the Bottega Drop Earrings. I personally love the smaller ones. I have not ordered the larger ones yet. Smaller ones are truthfully the perfect size. We love a good alternative because who has $800+ to spend on the Bottegas." —Brittany

Get them from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 11 colors, two-packs, and an extra large size). 

22. A faux-sheepskin area rug ensuring the first thing your feet feel in the morning is fuzzy heaven. You can use this next to your bed, flung over a couch, or as an auxiliary pet bed. Yes, even Chanel the dog gets a fancy resting spot. 

Amazon

Promising review: "My parents went to Europe and sat outside on furs like these, and now they do the same at home. They live in the mountains in Utah. They put these on their metal patio chairs and then cover themselves with a blanket outside in the winter. The faux furs keep your backside insulated, and then, topped with the blanket, they are able to have a cocktail hour(s) on the deck all year long! It’s honestly pretty sweet, and the dog gets her own to lie on when she’s outside, too." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $13.79+ (available in six sizes and 11 colors). 

23. A classic pleated tennis skort with...*drumroll*...pockets! Pleased reviewers have compared it to reputable brands like Nike, Aritzia, and even Lululemon, saying it's suuuper comfortable. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "I LOVE this skirt! I have the original Nike one and they are identical. The only difference is that it doesn’t have a logo on it, but tbh, I prefer the no-logo look. It’s such a good buy and SO comfortable!" —Tayler

"I was skeptical at first, but once it arrived! WOW! I love this skirt! I need one in every color now. Very comfortable, breathable fabric and the skirts have secret pockets on the inside of the shorts! I really like it, and the length is perfect! Oh, and there’s a super cool thick band around the skirt top. It looks very nice I received a lot of compliments on skirt! Definitely recommend! ❤️" —VM

Get it from Amazon for $25.27 (available in nine colors and XS–XXL and nine colors).

24. A cute set of glass coffee syrup dispensers so you can pretend you have a personal coffee shop right inside your home. If the Seattle Space Needle can have its own Starbucks, why can't you? The kit comes with a funnel and package of labels, but if your coffee tastes are kind of niche, there are also two blank labels. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I absolutely love the look of these dispensers on my kitchen counter. These dispensers have an expensive feel and look. Added so much class to my countertop, and blended perfectly with the current decor and items on the counter. The only change I would make is maybe adding an outline for where the perfect placement of the label should be on the jar. You really want them to be even and at the same height, but once they are on, they are on. I would still recommend this purchase to anyone! 10 out of 10. Gorgeous! These are stunning, and I am in love." —Kevin

Get it from Amazon for $26.95+ (available in three finishes and two sizes).

25. A trio of hydrating lip sleeping masks that 150+ reviewers say offers a Laneige-like experience for just a fraction of the price. The berry extract and vitamin C work to moisturize lips as you go to bed, proving that beauty sleep is a real thing. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

For reference, the Laneige lip mask contains 20 grams of product, while each of these has 5 grams, or 15 grams, for the entire set. So, even with product sizes taken into account, these are a much better deal. 

Promising review: "[Alternative] for the Laneige lip mask. This is the most moisturizing lip treatment on the market. When my lips started getting dry due to the cold season, I was thinking of buying the Laneige lip mask, but it's soooo expensive. This is a fraction of the cost and feels just the same. Very good product." —Riya

Promising review: "I was so excited to turn this lamp on that I placed it on my couch instead of making room on my shelves. The lightweight lamp is funky, and the fun pop of orange adds character to my living room. It’s always a cozy night in with this lamp. A great find to start your lamp collection or add to your existing one." —dana

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Reviewers recommend a strong glue like this one. 

Promising review: "If you’re even considering doing it, JUST DO IT!! I can’t even begin to tell you how easy this was, and the end result is mind-blowing! When people come over (we’re remodeling our newly purchased home built in 1865), their jaws drop. We put this in the sunroom/eat-in kitchen area. We love it so much we’ll be doing it in the bar area of the dining room. When you actually get them on the ceiling and look at your finished product, you’d never guess it’s styrofoam. Caulking between the tiles was crucial to giving its overall look. That was the most difficult part. My advice (from watching hours of YouTube videos and doing research): Find the center of the ceiling and work your way out. It took us two hours to do a fairly large space. We definitely overestimated how many it would take, but I’m glad we had extra on hand in case we messed one up. Also — make sure your blade is SHARP!" —Steven

Get it from Amazon for $31.92+ (available in packs of 8, 48, 96, 144, and in eight colors).

28. A layered necklace set with three classic chains — herringbone, curb, and rope — that'll elevate any outfit, even your dog-walking uniform.

With such an affordable price, I would definitely recommend this to anyone curious about trying it." —Chrissy

Promising review: "I've been drooling over the Ninja Creami ice cream maker, but the price just isn't in my budget…but after buying this, I say save your money and get the Dash! So easy to use and makes yummy ice cream at home! I love making frozen yogurt with Greek yogurt and then add-ins. So delicious!!" —Kat Barber

Get two mugs and a churner from Amazon for $39.99.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I bought this and my daughter immediately tried to steal it because she thought it was the real thing. Ha! This is so easy to use, and a little goes a long way. This will last for a while. And was a fraction of the price of the brand name." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in three shades). 

34. A spandex-blend slip maxi dress that's the closest you can get to wearing a nightgown outside while still looking ready for date night. Reviewers say that this fabric is not only comparable to a certain Skims dress, it might actually be even better. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Reviewers agree that if you want it fitted, size down.

Promising reviews: "I saw this girl wearing this exact style of dress with a Skims tag on the back, and honestly, it made me so grateful that I purchased this dress instead. It looks exactly like the Skims version, and I could be biased, but the material of this dress looked better than the Skims one. If you want it to be a little snug, I would definitely recommend sizing down one size from your normal size. So freaking comfortable and made out of thick material." —Kaitlyn

"I have the Skims dress in black and wanted to look for a cheaper version, but read reviews and some said that it is a bit looser than expected. I would agree that the small is a bit loose. If you want a snatched look, definitely get a size smaller, as it is very stretchy. I'm 5' tall so this is a bit long on me, even when I wear heels. In comparison to the Skims, the material is smoother, while Skims has a ribbed texture. You honestly can't tell the difference. Good bang for your buck if you ask me!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in women's sizes XXS–XL and 10 colors).
