As a Senior Shopping Writer at BuzzFeed, I specialize in a broad range of topics, including beauty, cleaning, fashion, personal care, home, fitness, and my beloved “TikTok made me buy it.” My work has been featured across lifestyle and writing publications during my ten years in the digital media space, including Bustle, HuffPost, HelloGiggles, and The Washington Post.

1. An affordable cult-favorite luxury-scented candle with a scent reminiscent of Le Labo's $92 Santal 33 version, and a throw so satisfying that reviewers can't stop gushing about it. If you're in the market for a signature scent to keep your space relaxing and cozy, look no further than this jasmine, oud, and sandalwood blend.

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

Promising review: "This is such a great candle that fills the room quickly with a really nice, strong smell that is soothing and relaxing. I was looking for a less expensive Le Labo Santal 33 scent candle, and this one is very, very close! It's a bit stronger, but I love it! The shipment arrived fast, and I just love how fast it fills up the room without being lit for so long!" —Cristina Bertolotto

Get it from Amazon for $17.95+ (available in three sizes, in gift box options, in packs of two, and in a variety of scents). 

2. Play-Doh Blooms Bouquet Making Kits, aka PLAY-DOH FOR GROWN-UPS. This delightfully therapeutic design kit is a crafter's dream, whether you're a beginner or a pro — you can use the flower maker tools to press petals and create your own custom flower bouquet, and even use the included finishing spray to help it last over time.

Promising review: "I bought all the bouquet sets to make with my daughter and son's girlfriend. We had so much fun making these and the quality was amazing. Even came with a vase to place them. Will definitely be buying the other sets I've seen out. You won't be disappointed buying these." —Angela

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in two sets). 

3. A perilously soft, decadently thick Ugg Whitecap Throw Blanket so out of this world comfortable that one reviewer said it "basically feels like being hugged by a baby alpaca that just got out of a luxury spa." If you are in dire need of an emotional support blanket to keep you cozy and wozy, you can't do any better than this. 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "Buy it for life! Seriously, these are probably three to four times thicker than your average fleece blanket. They're heavy in a good way, soft on both sides, and so warm and cozy. These are worth every penny! These should last you ten to twenty years, I bet. Color is great, washing is easy, obviously very durable, and high-quality. I don't write reviews about blankets, but this one deserved a review. I'm so impressed with these." —J

Get it from Amazon for $108 (available in three colors and also in Twin-King sizes for beds!)

4. Murdoku, a set of murder mystery logic puzzles inspired by the smash hit Murdleseries. These "immersive mini murder mysteries" are a more visual version of Murdle, with 80 (!!) crime scenes that can take place anywhere from a bakery to a casino to a chess tournament to a farm to the opera. Plus, these clues are sometimes so funny that you'll be like, "Wow, I've been laughing about fictional humans in peril a lot." 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Amazing! These puzzles are so fun. It’s nice that they start easy and get harder, so you can get used to the format first, then continue to be challenged as you learn how they work. Fun, visually appealing, and sprinkled with humor. I finished this one in about 1.5 months (of fairly dedicated work) and ordered Volume 2 before I was even done with the first one. It’s a higher price point than many puzzle books, but you get high quality for what you pay." —EN

The best part?? Once you finish this version of "Murdling," you can try a whole BUNCH of other themed Murdle books — PLUS a Murdle board game! 

Get it from Amazon for $15.19 (and check outVolume 2 and Volume 3if you're in the mood for more murrrrderrr). 

5. Swiss Miss Salted Caramel Flavored Hot Cocoa Mixfor anyone who loves their cozy cuppa with a little extra sweet and salty ~oomph~ to it. Reviewers are so obsessed with this particular flavor for cutting some of the sweetness with the salt flavor, with one even claiming it's better than Starbucks. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I drink hot chocolate year-round, so when I say this is the best hot chocolate I have ever had, I'm serious. It's not overly chocolate, has a nice salty caramel flavor. It's not too sweet. It's just perfect. This is now my preferred hot chocolate! I definitely recommend. I have already bought several boxes after only finding this a few weeks ago." —Jim Linton

Get a pack of eight from Amazon for$4.19. 

6. Still & Slow, a monochrome coloring book for adultswhere you literally just use *one* color per page. The page indicates where the one color should go, resulting in a deeply satisfying end result image without having to interrupt your ~flow~ by choosing new colors for everything in the frame. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "SUCH a great introduction to color by numbers! Lots of cozy, peaceful scenes to pick from, and the book size is great for carrying around with you. All you need is a small packet of Artistro black acrylic markers,and you're set! They don't bleed through either, thanks to the thick, one-sided paper. It's also super fun to slowly reveal the whole picture by coloring in only the areas with the 'O.' I can't wait to work through this one and invest in more of these books! Well worth the money if you want a relaxing new hobby!" —Sabrina

Get it from Amazon for $24.90.

Emma Lord/BuzzFeed

Check out aTikTok of the foot masks in action. 

I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days! 

Promising review: "Very soothing. My husband and l used these on our European vacation, and they definitely felt good on our feet!" —KS2018

Get a set of three pairs from Amazon for $11.97. 

10. A reviewer-beloved ocean-projecting shower lampto set the most relaxing, downright ethereal tone for all your beloved "Everything Showers" — all you have to do is turn the lights off in your bathroom, turn this gorgeous lamp on, and you'll be immersed in all kinds of beautiful (and dimmable!) light patterns based on your mood. 

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Probably my favorite purchase of the year. I like to shower with the lights off, using candles for light. Of course, they smell nice but don’t provide enough light. With the adjustable brightness of this lamp, I get just the right amount of light to enjoy my relaxing shower, but also be able to see what I’m doing. It has a ton of settings with all different colors, and when you take off the top, it has this cool water effect on the ceiling. I thought I would only use it in the bathroom, but now I use it in my bedroom before I go to sleep. It provides a relaxing glow, unlike the other bright lamps in my room. It looks and feels high-quality. I plan to purchase this as a gift for all of my friends and family, seriously." —Tanya

Get it from Amazon for $26.99. 

11. Dr Teal's "Autumn Comfort" Epsom salt magnesium soak, a ~limited edition~ blend of citrus, soft spices, and cedar essential oils so perfectly *fall* that you'll close your eyes and feel like you're bathing in the middle of the woods at the peak of the most beautiful foliage. 

Amazon

Promising review: "I have used several different scents of Dr. Teal's Epsom salts, and this is by far my favorite! I hope I can still get it when the autumn season is over!" —neon sock

Get it from Amazon for $5.87.

This lets you build oh-so-cozy little setups like bedrooms, bakeries, and even amusement parks with blank canvases and sticker sheets. 

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Check out a TikTok of the 3D sticker bookin action. 

Promising review: "This sticker scene was so much fun to put together and surprisingly relaxing. It kept me entertained and gave me a nice break from constantly scrolling on my phone. The stickers are cute, the scenes are enjoyable to create, and it feels rewarding to see everything come together. If you’re looking for a simple hobby that helps you unwind and stay off social media for a bit, I highly recommend giving this a try!" —Michico 

Get it from Amazon for $9.98. 

13. A ridiculously cute microwaveable stuffed animal that doubles as a heating pad to get you through the chilliest months of the year (or the crampiest times of the month!!). These bubs are also lavender-scented, which may help with anxiety or insomnia if you need a soothing way to calm down. Many people gifted these to loved ones who have had surgeryand haveused them to ease the grief after the loss of a pet (speaking of, many reviewers mentioned their cats and dogs loved these so much they claimed them as their own!). 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

These are each filled with all-natural grain and dried lavender, so you can microwave them to use them as heating pads or pop in a sealed bag in the freezer for two to three hours to use them as a cold pack.

Promising review: "Chronic pain approved. Calling all cow lovers because this microwavable stuffed Highland cow is so it! Not only is it super cute, but it’s a very slightly above average size and super easy to use. I will also say, as an ethical vegan, I also love that it is made with all-natural products, and the price of it is honestly a steal compared to other similar products. While I got it for myself for chronic pain, it is definitely able to be used for any adult or child as a gift." —Becca

Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in 11 animal styles). 

14. A bag of gloriousNutella biscuitswith such a perfect crispy/creamy texture ratio that you'll be in buttery, chocolate-y, hazelnut-y bliss from the first bite. A lot of reviewers mention that they taste like shortbread! 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These cookies exceeded my expectations. They have the perfect texture — crispy on the outside with a creamy Nutella filling inside that tastes just like the original spread. Perfect for pairing with coffee or as a sweet treat. The package comes with 20 cookies, and they all arrived in great condition, none broken. Definitely a great choice for Nutella lovers. I’ll be buying them again!" —Angie CZ

Get it from Amazon for $5.17. 

15. A Disney Mystery Color-By-Number Book where you genuinely have NO idea what you're coloring until the numbers and colors start to form an image right in front of your eyes. Are you coloring a sassy Megara or The Evil Queen herself?? Better whip out the colored pencils to find out! 

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Another great Disney Mystery coloring book. The spaces in this book are larger than in some of the others in the series, but they make for amazing pictures when they're completed. I've been using Languo acrylic pensto complete mine. I love how the images come together and how detailed they are. I've included pictures of all of the images included in the book." —Matt Hamblin

Get it from Amazon for $17.56. 

16. And a holy grail heated throw blanket so perfectly cozy wozy that it will be a miracle if you ever deign to come out from under it again. Reviewers love that this also becomes a pet cuddle magnet, since doggos and kitties love to snuggle up against the warmth with them. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This blanket is soft and of quality! I sleep with it every night. I love all of the settings and rarely set it over two. There is a timer, so it shuts off on its own. It’s lightweight and plush all at once. The heat is just enough to soothe achy joints, and the lightweight feel allows room to breathe, so you still get the effects of the heat without becoming too warm. So far, I have not had any problems with it! The cord is removable, so you can wash it as well. I am 5’9” and it is big enough to cover me completely. I highly recommend this blanket." —ENVYGRL8

Get it from Amazon for $33.29+ (available in six sizes and seven colors). 

17. "The Spooky Shire," a brand spanking new addition to the cult-favorite Magic Puzzle series so beloved on TikTok.

18. A PopLite personal popcorn maker with a built-in serving bowl that will give you eight cups of movie theater-quality popcorn in two mere mortal minutes. Reviewers especially love that the popcorn doesn't burn, and the machine doesn't leave unpopped kernels like the usual microwave brands. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Check out aTikTok of the popcorn makerin action. 

Promising review: "This little popcorn popper is perfect! No fuss, no mess, no chasing popcorn kernels!! Fabulous! Easy to use — the popcorn maker part fits into the bowl part for easy storage. This is one perfect unit!" —Chrystal

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These are adorable! It's a great little size, so you don’t feel overwhelmed. I bought several of these for my mom when she was in the hospital. They looked so cute that I bought myself two. Watch the video on how to do it first, though. There is a QR code in the instructions that takes you to a video. Watch that first. These are so fabulous, especially for this price." —RR

Get it from Amazon for $13.66. 

20. A pair of ~Dreamlux~ leggings made with an oh-so-buttery soft material reviewers compare to Lululemon's Align ... but WAY cheaper. If you're looking for a reliably squatproof, comfy, compressive legging, look no further than these. 

Amazon

I bought these on Prime Day, which is the only day I will buy leggings because I hate wearing leggings with a burning passion. My "I'm not like other girls" bit is that, for some reason, I am always more comfortable in jeans than leggings. BUT NOT THESE!!! They slide on. The fabric is so lightweight and breathable that it feels like a whisper. The band is so deceptively comfortable that sometimes I'm like, "Am I still wearing them??" I use them to run outdoors because that is the only circumstance I'll wear leggings, and I'm happy to report that after several washes, they are durable and compressive enough to withstand workouts. They would be excellent for lounging if I weren't wired in this odd anti-legging way. I have already bought two more pairs and made my friends buy them, too. 

Promising review: "Super comfy. I usually don’t write reviews, but I tried these first before buying Lulu, and these are the most comfortable leggings for everyday and even for workouts. Highly recommended!" —Criselle Johnson

Get them from Amazon for $28 (available in women's sizes XXS–XXL, two inseams, and 22 styles). 

21. A Buddha Board, aka the original water painting board that reviewers swear by for de-stressing and unleashing their creativity in a screen-free, mindful way. This paints beautiful brush strokes that fade like a gorgeous Etch-A-Sketch, making every piece of art low-pressure and "of the moment." A lot of reviewers mention that it's fun for kids and adults alike, and therapists mention using it to help clients open up! 

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I bought one of these many years ago and love mine. I just bought this one for a friend as a gift. She loves it! This item is of great quality. Perfect size to do quick, creative work. This board helps a person come into the present. Let the world melt away while they use it. Before you know it, time has slipped by, and the calm has set in. It may be perfect at the office! Definitely would have people stopping by to chill for a minute! (Just a thought.) I would imagine this would be calming for kids, too! Get one for yourself. Leave the world behind." —ClearlyLiving

Get it from Amazon for $37.95. 

22. A neck and back massager that will take you from 😤 to 😌 in mere minutes. This deep tissue kneading massager comes with custom speed and heat modes, and is lightweight and oh-so-cozy for long massage sessions. Bonus: you can even use it on your waist and shoulders for extra relief! 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I liked it a lot. It is easy to use, and the heat helps make the massage more pleasant and relaxing. I use it especially when I feel tension in my neck and shoulders. So far, I am very satisfied with the purchase, and I recommend it since it helps a lot with stress." —Guisela

Get it from Amazon for $28.99.  

23. A gorgeous vintage-style microwaveable soup bowl to grant you absolute supreme coziness at every level. Reviewers are in love with the ease of the looped handle and how versatile it is for oatmeal, yogurt, and all kinds of snacks. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "What a beautiful piece! IT'S GORGEOUS!!!! I can't say enough about the quality; the colors are just incredible. It's perfect for your portion of cereal, soup, casserole, mac 'n' cheese, ice cream, or cookies, and you can even put a beverage in it. I thought it was small, it's not large, but it can take a generous helping of whatever you decide to put in it." —Teri Breci

Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in 11 styles). 

24. A tablet pillow stand complete with a lil' snack and beverage station so you can read your Kindle or stream your latest "who kidnapped the young hot girl??" show without leaving the comfort of your own bed. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Totally worth every penny! The base is a beanbag made of a soft yet high-quality material. The beanbag makes the table portion very comfortable and also conforms to your lap, sofa, or other surface, ensuring its stability. The stand itself is also very sturdy and easily adjustable. It does not get flimsy over time or loose, so you don't have to worry about it holding your Kindle or iPad and then eventually sagging. It can even be removed from the table if you wish, making the table even more functional for other uses. It is very easy to use, lightweight, easily adjustable, and strong!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I am not an artist, but this is fun! I keep it on my nightstand along with some sketch pencils and draw when winding down for the night. Yes, some of the prompts are a bit odd, but I just go with them. Sort of tests the imagination! My 10-year-old granddaughter loves it, too." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $8.96.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I LOVE this women’s matching lounge set! It’s one of those outfits that looks put together but feels like you’re wearing pajamas. The fabric is soft, lightweight, and comfortable. I wore this as a travel outfit, and it was perfect — comfortable enough for a long day in the car or airport, but cute enough to wear out for errands, coffee, or lunch. The neutral color makes it look more elevated than a typical sweatsuit, and the pieces are easy to mix and match with other basics." —Sarah L. Nibarger

Get it from Amazon for $36.99+ (available in women's sizes XXS–XXL and 29 styles). 

27. A pair of wireless sleep headphones to play white noise or the music of your choice as cozily! as! possible!! without your ears getting sore. This is also an excellent option for side sleepers  👀. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These are great! I've struggled with insomnia for the past couple of years. I wish I'd found these sooner. They are extremely comfortable. When I fall asleep, I rarely sleep for more than an hour straight. These allow me to comfortably play a podcast or meditation to get myself back to sleep. I'm only two nights in on using these, and I know I don't want to be without them. Battery life is great. I probably played them for a total of five hours during the night and woke up with them still having 70% battery remaining. I probably won't use these for a workout because I don't have to wash them all the time, but for insomnia or anyone who just likes to fall asleep listening to something, these are amazing." —Jesse Brown

Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in 27 colors).

This also makes for a lovely gift for family members, so you can all preserve each other's memories. 

Promising review: "My niece gave this book to me for Christmas, and I filled it out gradually in a few months to give back to her. The process of filling it out was enlightening and took me through sad times and glad times. A few questions left me with a blank, and others made me wish I had 50 pages instead of one, but overall, it was a good experience for me. My niece seemed thrilled to get it and read it, which was even better. I just bought a copy to give as a gift to someone who had told me of a wish to tell his children more about his life and experiences, perhaps in writing." —L. Skellings

Promising review: "It’s honestly just a really nice material to work with! If you want to create things with clay, this is definitely a good choice! It’s definitely not for professional use, but I feel like that’s a given? I mean, it is Crayola. But all in all, great for those who want to use it for fun!" —Amazon Customer

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "For a first-time trier at linocut, this was a perfect set. It had everything I needed to trace, carve, and stamp. The tools aren’t amazing, so don’t expect to get incredibly detailed images, but it’s excellent for an introduction to the craft, and I was able to create some fun pictures! It’s easy to use, but be careful when learning to carve and watch your fingers because the pointy end of the instrument is sharp! Overall, I feel the money I paid was worth the items that came in the kit, and it’s given me more of a desire to do more detailed work with finer tools in the future!" —Jen

Get it from Amazon for$25.99.
