The other beans will have nothing on your cuteness.
1. A set of limited edition wildflower Band-Aids so the next time you get a little ouch, you can be like, "wound care, but make it fashion."
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "If you're looking for a cute Band-Aid that has flexible fabric, these are it! I only use flexible fabric Band-Aids because they're way more comfortable and stay on better. Bonus that these are a cute design!" — Jessica
Get a pack of 30 from Amazon for $3.77.
2. A pair of luxe retro-style oval sunglasses giving Miu Miu vibes without the $489 price tag. The devil's in the chic details on this one, including the little gold embellishments on the sides and the nostalgic shape of the lenses, which are softer than the typical skinny oval lens.
Promising review: "I absolutely love these sunglasses! They suit my face beautifully and elevate any look with their stylish design. The gold details on the sides are such a stunning touch — reminiscent of high-end Miu Miu sunglasses but at a fraction of the cost. They're lightweight, comfortable, and feel durable. I've received so many compliments already. Highly recommend these for anyone looking to add a chic accessory to their collection!" — Arsalan sheikh
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in five styles and two or three packs).
3. Laneige Lip Glowy Balm, which unsurprisingly went just as TikTok viral as everyone's beloved Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask — the glowy balm has the same delightful flavors (including the iconic Gummy Bear) and hydrates lips with the *chef's kiss* lightweight, moisturizing blend that doesn't get all sticky and goopy-like competitors.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Laneige lip balm lives up to the TikTok hype. The Gummy Bear scent is awesome. Don't need to constantly reapply because the formula is moisturizing. Definitely will order other scents." — Charlotte T.
Get it from Amazon for $19 (available in eight flavors and multipacks).
4. And Maybelline Super Stay Teddy Lip Tint gives you an oh-so-pillowy matte pout that refuses! to! quit! no matter what you throw at it during the day. Reviewers mention that this is a great "everyday" matte, giving a velvety, well-pigmented look without being too dramatic.
Promising review: "I have been on a hunt for The Lipstick for my 20 plus years of wearing makeup. Regular lipstick comes off in minutes because I'm chugging water all day. Matte long stay just settles into every lip crack and looks terrible. This is the first and only long-stay lipstick that doesn't settle into cracks and dry down. I think because it's a slightly thicker consistency — not quite glossy, more like a thick balm so it glides over lip cracks. I have just about every color — I'm really hoping they come out with a rusty red." — Kate Lynch
Get it from Amazon for $9.97 (available in ten shades).
5. A coquette cocktail print so your bar can be every bit as cutesy, demure, and mindful as the rest of your life. (Well, so long as that espresso martini isn't in the picture.)
Honey Island Studio/Etsy
Each poster is made on lightweight, uncoated classic matte paper.
Honey Island Studio is a California-based Etsy shop established in 2019 that specializes in funky, trendy digital prints for your home.
Promising review: "Looks just like the image! I bought a frame for it and it fits perfectly, I love it. If you're thinking of buying this item, I highly suggest you do so! :)" — Allison
Get it from Honey Island Studio on Etsy for $16.11+ (available in 13 sizes).
6. A little rose-shaped straw topper for your emotional support water bottle so you can remind yourself everything's (literally) coming up roses every time you pluck it off to take a sip. This is an excellent way to keep your straw safe from germs in between sips!
Promising review: "I get compliments on these all the time! They are so cute and functional! They are easy to clean and help keep your straw clean, help with accidental spills, and keep bugs out in the summer! They are a must-have." — Amazon Customer
Get a set of two from Amazon for $5.99 (available in six colors and larger multipacks).
7. A cheerful, ridiculously roomy corduroy tote bag that you'll want in every pattern. This lightweight number is strong enough to handle your groceries but also adorable enough to demand that you stick a little Trader Joe's bouquet in them to peek out the side. Also ... it has an inner POCKET.
Promising review: "I love this bag. It holds everything. I even used it as my extra allowed personal item on the plane, and I had all I needed tucked right in this bag. Even my water bottle and reading materials fit well. It's got cute style. It's easy to locate in the house because of its bright colors. Washes up fantastically. The snaps work great, so things do not easily spill out. The inside pockets are perfect for phone and small wallet and provide easy access to them." — L.
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 38 styles).
8. A set of pastel glitter highlighters I saw on Instagram and NEARLY BLACKED OUT from the cuteness. If you like highlighting your planner pages, favorite passages from books, or lines from your journal, please do yourself a favor and purchase these subtle but oh-so-sparkly colors to jazz them up ✨.
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 $6.85+ (available in four versions).
9. A mini ruffled swing dress with a sweet little bow detail to remind everyone that of all the gifts this year has to offer, you just might be the cutest of them all.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I'm obsessed with this dress! I have it in three different colors and can't get enough! The fabric is light and airy, which is great for where I live! The bow detail and ruffles are adorable. Super fun dress that can be worn casually or dressed up! Perfect for a date night or vacation! Extremely comfortable!" — Mrs.Camacho
Get it from Amazon for $36.47+ (available in women's sizes S–XXL and in 20 colors).
10. A set of freckle makeup pens to give you an oh-so-realistic sunkissed constellation of freckles in different shades and sizes even when your makeup is covering your actual freckles. (Nice TRY, foundation!!)
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "The lightest color works well for me for a natural look. I use this to accentuate my nose freckles if any makeup is over them. It stays pretty well, too!" — corabro
Get a set of four from Amazon for $8.99 (available in two sets — a chestnut and dark brown set and a light brown and natural coffee set).
11. An oh-so-sweet hummingbird lamp with three brightness levels and a touch sensor that reviewers love using as a reading light, a wind-down light, or a nursery light. Bonus: it also functions as an aroma diffuser if you add 3–4 drops of essential oil to the top of its head.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Check out a TikTok of the bird night-light in action.
Promising review:"This little bird is truly a gem. You tap on its head to get three different brightness of lighting. Works great as a night-light or to have on during the day as a decor for your table or end table. I love that it comes with a charger. No need to worry about having the right battery size. Will buy as gifts for friends and family!" — Linda S.
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors).
12. A set of retro-style novelty socks perfect for anyone whose plans are, "Be cute, sleep, repeat." Reviewers note that these are delightfully soft and hold up well in the wash!
Amazon
Promising review: "I loved these socks so much I went and bought a second pack. They are soft, fit great, and the quality is really good. They're not too thick, either." — veda moynihan
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $11.19 (available in 23 other sets).
13. A "float-tea unicorn" to make steeping your tea downright magical every morning, no matter *how* much caffeine you need to get yourself across today's rainbow.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"No matter how your day goes, if you are a tea drinker, put this lil' guy in your cup of tea and he's sure to make you smile! He works as expected to steep your tea ... the smile and brighter mood are decided bonuses! He's very easy to fill with tea leaves, and after your cuppa, he is really easy to clean! I have a number of different infusers for tea. This cute lil' unicorn is already my fave. ❤️🦄❤️" — Vicky S.
Get it from Amazon for $15.99.
14. A flowerpot-shaped lemon juicer designed to flex on all your other kitchen tools — it's not only really good at its job, but it looks gosh darn adorable doing it.
Amazon
Promising review: "Cute, quirky, and fun to use! Lemonade is quickly made. It looks so good, I leave it on the counter." — Stephaniep
Get it from Amazon for $14.90.
15. A sheer lacy mock neck top just *begging* to be mix-and-matched with your favorite bras, dresses, and tops to add a dainty layer of ~intrigue~ to even the most run of the mill 'fit.
Promising review: "Obsessed with this lace top!! I have it in brown and am ordering in more colors. Perfect to wear on its own with a bralette/tank or can be layered so many ways! Such great quality and super affordable! Runs true to size! Love the sleeves and neckline of this one!" — Becca
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and 11 colors).
16. A set of dainty but surprisingly strong bow-shaped hair clips to pair with all your frilliest dresses or to add a soft touch your more structured work outfits.
I own a ton of these in different colors now because it is SO easy to comfortably secure my hair in them, and they're so strong that the hold lasts all day. People are always asking me where I got mine — it's such a sweet little subtle touch to an outfit!
Get a set of four from Amazon for $8.99 (available in eight sets).
17. A dimmable flexible clip-on mushroom light so versatile that it'll become your Emotional Support Shroom — this gizmo clips to desks, cribs, bedside tables, and computer monitors to give an ambient, soft glow that's easy on the eyeballs when you're trying to focus. (Also, it's just so darn precious??)
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Reviewers especially love this lamp for small spaces, since it doesn't take up valuable surface area!
Promising review: "I love the way the light looks and the many colors, but honestly I love the flexibility of the neck. I can manipulate it to fit the function of what I am doing. I have used it as reading light and mood light by the bed. I had no problem reading my book at night. I have used it as a task light to do arts and crafts. More recently, I have used it at work and it now has a permanent spot at my desk. The light was a great value for the money for me." — Terese
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in two colors).
18. An iconic spaghetti strap sundress with built-in shorts perfect for romping around *and* for saving a few bucks — this compares very closely to a more expensive mall brand version.

Promising review:"Love this piece! Super comfortable and soft! Color was spot on! Love the fit and it has pockets 🙌. Not too thin or thick! Material is just right. Washed and dried and it didn't shrink!" — Jocelyn Lamley
Get it from Amazon for $26.98 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and 20 colors).
19. Lip Smacker Rolly Lip Gloss so cooling, so silky smooth, and so darn nostalgic that you'll want to try one in every fruity flavor — just don't come crying to me when you accidentally fall into a time machine and wake up in a Backstreet Boys video.
Amazon, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"This stuff is not only nostalgic in flavor, style, and smell but this has truly healed my lips. My lips are always so dry and I get little pieces of skin, but this has made my lips completely normal again. This is also a fantastic mood booster for me. I can be having an overwhelming day at work and put this on and the fragrance and flavor just takes me back and boost my mood! " — Tina Laray Bessler
Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (available in Strawberry, Peach, Grape, and Watermelon).
20. A pair of gold-plated butterfly huggie earrings to add a subtle, charming nod to gardens to any of your outfits.
Amazon
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 jewelry for more options, including earrings, bracelets, and anklets!
Get it from Amazon for $12.95+ (available in three styles).
21. A daisy-shaped dish brush with a lil' vase holder so cute that, fair warning, you can't use it without accidentally bursting into an iconic Disney princess song. (Dibs on all of Tangled.)
www.amazon.com, Amazon
Check out a TikTok of the flower scrubber in action.
Promising review: "Love having this on my kitchen sink. I t's happy and cute and makes me happy. One leaf did twist off after a few weeks of use, but it's still cute, and I could've been more careful holding it. Not a super stiff brush, but works well for most hand washing and quick rinses. Brush rinses well and food doesn't get caught in it. I was happy to find it has a hidden scraper edge on top of the brush. Will def buy again when this one gets gross since it brings so much tiny joy into my kitchen." — Hannah Jo Wilson
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in two colors).
22. A flower-shaped pill organizer so cute that taking your medication will suddenly feel like the most ~~aesthetic~~ main character part of your routine. These feature a surprisingly large capacity, and the days are detachable so you can take pills on go!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Travel with ease!! Before this product, I would take all my supplement bottles with me in my purse which took up an unnecessary amount of room. Now with this product I can travel easily with all my daily supplements. Takes up minimal space in my purse and actually encourages me to take my daily supplement s. Not to mention I love the color and style. Can fit up to 9 of my largest size capsules." — Kaci Allen
Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in four styles).
23. Touchland Body & Hair Mist in Peachy Lychee — yes, plot twist, the iconic brand responsible for your favorite hydrating hand sanitizers just released a "Power Essence" line of straight-up decadent smells, and this one is top tier. It is soft, sweet, and delicious at the same time, and so well-balanced and alluring that I'm like, girl, please. Stop sniffing yourself in public.
Emma Lord/BuzzFeed
Touchland is a small business that specializes in hydrating hand sanitizers and body and hair mists.
Touchland sent me samples of all of the scents in the Power Essence line, and I've truly never been more impressed by body mists. I'm not a big perfume wearer because I am incredibly picky and find a lot of scents too overpowering, or detect something ~off~ about the way they settle that I can't explain. But this collection of lightweight, scrumptious, and creative scents was just full of hit after hit. Peachy Lychee is my absolute favorite right now because it just feels like it bottled up the smell of happiness. Every time I put it on I get a lil' spring in my step!! (But vanilla-loving friends — you do NOT want to sleep on the Vanilla Velvet scent, either!)
Get it from Amazon for $20 (available in eight scents).
24. An absolutely darling satin ribbon bow bookmark with such irresistible Belle vibes that it'll be a miracle if all your local pots and pans don't start singing to you as you pass.
All Smiles by Amber Inez/Etsy
All Smiles by Amber Inez is a Minnesota-based Etsy shop that specializes in book accessories.
Promising review:"This seller truly went above and beyond. The packaging that the bookmark came in was so beautiful and safe for mail. I loved opening it. The bookmarks are so cute and exactly as pictured and described. It also came with two color matching stickers. So fun! Highly recommend! Thanks so much!" — Becca Schae
Get it from All Smiles by Amber Inez on Etsy for $8 (available in 12 colors).
25. A daisy-shaped egg separator so the next time you're getting your protein in, you'll have some legit "flower power" on your side.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I use this when I'm making hollandaise sauce. It makes a tedious task more fun — who wouldn't get a smile when looking at a cute little daisy? It's much more interesting than a boring normal egg separator! I love this company's products — they bring fun into mundane tasks like cooking, cleaning, and more!" — Shelly Smithson
Get it from Amazon for $12.90.
26. A pair of bow-knot satin heels that are both dainty *and* show-stopping in a way that's giving "I traveled here by bubble." 💕 Psst — reviewers compare these to the $300 Loeffler Randall version!

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 $36.54+ (available in 14 styles).
30. A dainty pickleball paddle set so even if you're the worst players on the court, you'll at least be the cutest. These come complete with a chic carrying bag and four balls!

What Life Was Like In The Early '90s And Early '00s

A few months back, I stumbled upon this TikTok by tiktoker @officialdpainclain, where he genuinely and hilariously asked how people in the '90s used to get "updates on news and pop culture" as compared to the speed we get things today. He's clearly young and didn't live through that era, so it's understandable that it's hard to imagine a world without access to the internet literally in the palm of your hand. But it also got me thinking: for those of us who did grow up in the late '90s and early 2000s, the way we stayed informed, entertained, and connected was truly a completely different world. So, in the spirit of nostalgia, I put together a list of what everyday life was like for Y2K-era teens and kids — way before smartphones, social media, and 24/7 internet access shaped the way we interact. This post isn't about saying growing up back then was better, but more about how different things were, and how much effort it actually took to stay connected, make plans, or just find out what was going on. But somehow, we still made it work: Nobody really owned cellphones. Yes, by the late '90s and early '00s, they were becoming more common, but they were still incredibly expensive, and most parents weren't giving them to their kids. And if you did have a phone as a teen, you used it sparingly because there were strict monthly minute limits, and going over them could get very pricey. You shared an entire landline with everyone in your house, but if you were lucky, you could get an extension in your room so you could talk in your bedroom (which, of course, also meant your parents could listen in or demand that you get off when they needed to talk). And if you knew someone who did have their own private line, then not only would you be jealous, but you would also go over to use their phone if you wanted to talk to a crush, etc. Talking on the phone for long periods of time with your friends was VERY much a thing. And if you and your friends had three-way calling, then you could add extra people to the conversation (as seen in Mean Girls). If you had internet, then you would also use AIM to talk to your friends, especially as soon as you got home, so that you could catch up with as many of them at once on what the day's gossip was. Also, you'd leave cryptic "Away Messages" if you were in the mood to start drama. Most families shared one computer, and it was usually in a home office or "computer room." Also, fighting between siblings over who got to use it so they could get on the internet was an almost everyday occurrence. Aside from the computer lab, no classrooms had computers. And if they did, it was probably for the teacher or for very specific you weren't doing anything on a computer. Once you left the house, you'd literally had no idea what the weather would be like unless you read it in the newspaper or saw it on TV beforehand. If your parents were going out for the night, it wouldn't be unusual for them to leave the number to the restaurant they would be at or the number to the house where the dinner party would be* with the babysitter or you (if you were old enough to stay home alone). *Especially if it was a house they hadn't been to before and didn't already have the number saved in their address book. It also wouldn't be unusual for your parents to have the phone numbers to all your friends' homes, and call and ask to see if you were there or ask to talk to you. If you had a crush or made a new friend and wanted to give them your phone number, you'd have to write it down on a piece of paper, give it to them, and hope they didn't lose it. You likely owned a telephone book or spiral notebook where you wrote down phone numbers, home addresses, and email addresses of everyone whose info you hadn't already memorized. And if you needed to call a store or restaurant, you'd look them up in the Yellow Pages. You had to call and actually talk to someone on the phone when ordering pizza, and then had to wait around for them to show up. Listen, I am not saying that doesn't happen today, but back in the day, you didn't have a contactless delivery option, and you couldn't track where your order was. Online shopping was still in its infancy, so you were pretty much limited to whatever stores were physically around you. If you lived in a small town or a rural area, your options were slim, and chances are, a real shopping trip meant piling into a car and driving to the nearest big city just to find more variety. You or your parents would "special order" something if the store didn't have it in stock. Basically, the store would order it directly from their headquarters and have it sent to the store; they would then call you when it arrived (usually a week or two later). Again, back when you couldn't buy everything online. You'd schedule your week around your favorite TV shows. If you weren't home and missed it, you literally had to wait until summertime to watch it again in reruns*. *DVRs weren't super common, and the only other way not to be home was to program your VCR (which could be a bit tricky to figure out how to do sometimes). More likely than not, you were pretty dependent on TV Guide or the newspaper television guide to see what shows were on, which shows were reruns, and which ones were new episodes. Likewise, looking in the newspaper or alt weekly paper to see what movies were playing and their times, what concerts were happening in both large and small venues, and what other events were happening around town. You'd pick up a magazine at the grocery store checkout (if you didn't have a subscription) and read it cover to cover — sometimes more than once. It was how you got your celebrity gossip/interviews, behind-the-scenes photos from movies and TV shows, learned about the latest trends, etc. Then you'd take the glossy pages, tear them out, and tape them to your bedroom wall. Usually, if an artist you liked had a new single coming out, you found out about it from radio stations hyping it up and announcing the date and time of its premiere so you could tune in. Similarly, MTV VJs would just announce a premiere date and time for a band or artist's newest music video. Or they would premiere them on shows like TRL,120 Minutes, and, later on, Making the Video. If you wanted to learn the lyrics to a song you liked, you would read the lyrics from the CD's liner notes or, if it didn't come with lyrics (🙁), you'd listen to the song over and over and write down the lyrics on a piece of paper. If you weren't already heading together to the mall or some other place with your friends, you'd agree to meet up at a particular time and spot. Truly, you just trusted people to show up. You always carried around change in case you needed to use a payphone if you were out. As I said before, most teens, let alone kids, didn't have cellphones, and if you, for example, wanted your parents to come pick you up from the mall, you needed to make sure you had change to call them. If you visited a theme park like Disney, waiting in line meant actually talking to the people you were with — no phones to scroll, no apps to distract you. And grabbing a paper park map was a must. It was your go-to for everything: ride locations, parade and show times, dining spots, restrooms, and whether an attraction was temporarily closed. You waited in long lines for popular movies. There was no assigned seating, so if you and your friends wanted good seats, you'd have to wait in a line before being let into the theater (sometimes the wait would be almost as long as the movie itself). You wrote out invitations and then handed them to your friends at school if you were having a more "formal" party. This was also super awkward if you were handing them out in front of classmates who you weren't invited. You couldn't fact-check someone on the spot. Most of the time, you either took what they said at face value or made a mental note to look it up later — maybe in a dictionary, an encyclopedia, or by asking someone older who might know. Debates could last for days, and proving someone wrong required actual effort. You had to research schoolwork in encyclopedias and books in the library. And there was no worse feeling than getting late to the library and finding out that someone else had already checked out the book you needed. You had to make sure you got to the video store early on Fridays if you and your family wanted to rent the newest movie released. They'd run out of copies if it was a popular movie, and it wasn't unheard of for people to drive from store to store trying to locate a copy. And you'd watch movies at home in a subpar way compared to theaters. Not only was the TV resolution standard definition (480p), but most people watched full-screen cuts of movies meant to fit the 4:3 aspect ratio of the TV screen. And finally, sharing photos with friends meant asking for double prints when you got your film developed — one set for you, and one to hand out to whoever was in the shot.

10 TV Characters Who'd Be TikTok Influencers In 2025

1. Moira Rose (Schitt's Creek) Haul of vintage wigs, overly dramatic lip syncs, and cryptic "life advice." Her bio? "Former soap opera star. Now educating the masses. Caw, caw!" 2. Rue Bennett (Euphoria) No thirst traps. No trends. Just POV videos set to obscure music and cryptic captions like "it's all a simulation." 2M followers. No explanation. 3. Blair Waldorf (Gossip Girl) Soft-launching Chuck every other week and posts sponsored by high-end skincare brands. She definitely writes long captions like it's Tumblr in 2010. 4. Michael Scott (The Office) Would go viral weekly for saying completely unhinged things at work. Accidentally creates a meme without realizing it. 5. Sydney Adamu (The Bear) Her TikToks would be stressful, intense, and weirdly inspiring. "Yes, chef," but make it girlboss. 6. Steve Harrington (Stranger Things) He thinks he's posting for the boys but is unintentionally a thirst trap king. The comments are feral. 7. Penelope Featherington (Bridgerton) Secret soft-launches, gossip threads, bookish thirst traps. Starts with regency-core vibes, ends up being your favorite messy narrator. 9. Nate Jacobs (Euphoria) Posts shirtless videos with moody lighting and Nicki Minaj audio. The comments are unwell. 10. Spencer Reid (Criminal Minds) Nerdy facts, introvert vibes, accidental thirst traps. "Here's a fact you didn't ask for" turns into a fan account war in the comments. Quiet king of TikTok. Are there any other TV characters you could see ruling our TikTok screens? Let me know in the comments!
