36 Products Poised To Become Your New Favorites
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. A Baccarat Rouge 540-inspired moisturizing body wash infused with white jasmine, red currant, and sweet amber that reviewers swear by for a cheap alternative to keep that delectably luxe scent on them all day long. Nothing wrong with smelling a lil' ~~expensive~~! A buildable Lego cherry blossom reviewers love for a small but thoughtful way to add a touch of whimsy to their floral displays, or to gift to a fellow Lego enthusiast as a cheerful lil' pick-me-up. L'Oreal Paris Makeup Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara in a new brown shade so you can have all the *vavoom* of thick, full lashes with that romantic ~softness~ of the more muted shade. Similar to the iconic black shade that made it famous, this mascara doesn't smudge, clump, or flake for alllll day wear, and washes easily to be extra gentle on lashes. Death Wish Instant Coffee Packets so downright (dare I say, DANGEROUSLY) delicious that even the biggest coffee snobs you know might trade in their precious pour-overs. That is, if they can handle the 300mg of caffeine per cup 👀. Clinique Almost Lipstick Tinted Lip Balm in Black Honey you're definitely going to want to stock up on *now*, before TikTokers go feral again (guilty as charged). This cult-classic, lightweight, slightly glossy shade is beyond "holy grail" status — it matches skin tones so beautifully that I'm personally starting to suspect witchcraft, after seeing so many TikToks of it subtly transforming entire beauty looks with just a few swipes. A TikTok-beloved "Soft" perfume rollerball that honestly has no right smelling so delectable and layering so well considering it's only five cash dollars. Reviewers are obsessed with the scent's warm sweetness with a hint of citrusy zest, comparing it to waffle cones, lemon pound cake, and warm vanilla scones ... and this $65 bottle of Pink Sugar 👀. A shaker of Thin Mint seasoning you need to buy as a favor to all your taste buds immediately. Allow me to paint a picture for you: Thin Mint coffee, Thin Mint pudding, Thin Mint popcorn, Thin Mint anything your dessert gremlin heart desires. A mini Bob Ross paint-by-numbers kit for anyone on their "happy accidents" beat — this itty bitty set comes with everything you need to create three tiny masterpieces of your very own. A set of hair tie bracelets designed to look like *actual* jewelry, so you won't be kicking yourself when you realize you left a hair tie on your wrist for every photo. Murdle, Volume 1, a true essential for anyone who relaxes to true crime podcasts or Only Murders in the Building. The book is full of 100 mystery-themed logic puzzles with four different levels of difficulty that they can do solo or with pals, and in order or out of order (although if they do it in order, they get the full scoop on Deductive Logico and Inspector Irratino, whose hilarious misadventures guide you through the book). A cheeky pair of double-buckle slides that look like what happens when a Birkenstock from the 2000s falls in love with a jelly sandal from the '90s in a forbidden time-crossed romance. 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." A NeeDoh "Dream Drop," a beloved member of the *elite* Needoh sensory fidget toy line for anyone who wants to add more calm and focus to their day. This goo-filled, delightfully colorful fidget has a satisfying squish with a "slow rise" before going back to its original shape. Reviewers also love that it doesn't have the kind of stickiness that picks up debris and makes it hard to clean. Spring Moments, another beloved stress relief coloring book from Coco Wyo, a brand that's made itself famous on TikTok for its cozy, relaxing, easy-to-draw themes. This one is full of happy little animals frolicking in springtime shenanigans. 🌸 An oh-so-snuggly Kindle, iPad, and phone lap pillow holder so you can stream content or read the latest fairy, dragon, and/or "dead girl found in the woods" book in the *ultimate* comfort. This can rotate and easily adjust the angle of the screen, and even comes with a little spot to hold a snack! A pair of pretty pastel wireless over-the-ear headphones crafted to look like AirPods Max, so you can still enjoy the comfort and chic style of their iconic headphones without shelling out hundreds of dollars. These feature premium cushion padding, a built-in mic with the ability to take calls, 10 hours of playtime per charge, and surprisingly decent noise blocking for the price. The TikTok-viral Nooni appleberry lip oil that more than earned its spot on the MVP List — this K-beauty staple not only tints your lips for all-day wear, but helps moisturize and plump lips, so it's your one-stop shop for lip color *and* care. A set of cowboy straw toppers to add some much-needed "yeehaw!" into your hydration regimen, and keep your straws safe from germs out here in the wild, bacterial west. A three-pack of vintage-inspired polarized sunglasses for anyone who needs to stock up on a few "these look like Ray-Bans, but I won't cry into my Baja Blast if I accidentally leave them in the Taco Bell parking lot" pairs this year. These are especially handy because you can match the subtle prints to whatever 'fit you're wearing! Built's "Puff Protein Bars" that are basically chocolate-covered marshmallows that also, by some witchcraft, have 17 entire grams of protein in them?? And NO weird aftertaste. If you are also someone who is in a perpetual state of "I need protein or I will bite someone's brain off," I am telling you, nothing in this WORLD will feel better than pulling one of these out of your bag. 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. A light up solar frog figurine for your garden or porch so when you come home from that "just one drink" dinner past midnight, this croaky lil' fella can lovingly judge you for it. A goth popcorn maker and bowl for anyone who wants an extra side of spook with their saltiness.

Yellowbird's Small Batch Garlic Shiitake Hot Sauce, the beloved brand's *hottest* sauce yet. Those brave enough to ride the burn will love the combo of umami mushroom and spicy garlic and the fresh, slightly floral top note of habaneros. Bonus — this hot sauce is vegan and gluten-free! An affordable, elegant gold-plated paperclip-style necklace to instantly give any outfit a touch of sophistication without also making it a little, well, *boring*. Elegance, but with a bit of a modern edge. 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??) A compact, beginner-friendly watercolor palette that comes with everything you need to start creating your own masterpieces you can use to decorate your walls in the coziest, most colorful way imaginable — especially with 100 (!!) colors to choose from. A set of book-shaped sponges, aka what happens when Cinderella and Belle collaborate on your birthday gift. A set of itty bitty ceramic rice ball vases that all onigiri lovers deserve to have on their desk as a delicious aesthetic. LOOK AT THESE HAPPY BUBS. A set of retro-style novelty socks perfect for anyone whose plans this summer are, "Be cute, sleep, repeat." Reviewers note that these are delightfully soft and hold up well in the wash!

32 Things You Can Buy Because You're An Adult And Make Your Own Decisions
A shaker of Thin Mint seasoning for the person who stocks up on Girl Scout cookies every year but always runs out pre-maturely. This fairy dust will make anything from milkshakes to popcorn taste like your favorite elusive treat. A somewhat rude sticker to make your commute feel a little more like Mario Kart. Leave those slow-driving jerks in the dust! Promising review: "I put this on the driver-side mirror of my car. The instructions were clear and simple. It came with two decals, but I only used one because my passenger mirror has the usual writing about objects in the distance. I've been through a few car washes, and so far, it's stayed in place. I love that it is subtle, but gives me a chuckle when I remember that it's on my mirror." — it from Amazon for $2.22. A jar of black truffle "caviar" for when you want to feel tuxedo-level fancy, but don't have the funds (or heart) for the real deal. These truffle pearls are made with squid ink, so they still have an ocean-y kick without any sturgeon endangerment. A pack of colorful Starface pimple patches — hydrocolloid stickers that protect open pimples while slowly sucking out gunk from your skin, potentially speeding up the healing process. Bonus: On top of their classic star shape, they now have these really cool fruit sticker designs so you can do your best apple-at-the-grocery store impression. A shaker of edible cocktail glitter, because what drink wouldn't benefit from a little razzle dazzle? The halal- and kosher-certified glitter is exactly what you need if you're going for "my bartender is a fairy" type vibes. A pack of glittery highlighters for people who want some extra ~oomph~ when they highlight a really juicy part of their textbook. A wind-up toy shaped like a cat riding a robot vacuum. We've all seen the videos — it's time to recreate it at home. A working claw machine you can fill with any tiny treats you'd like, from squishy toys to candy Now you can say, "we have claw machine at home." Chatter mouth silicone grips for a somewhat unsettling cooking experience. These pot holders can withstand up to 450 degrees and double as a tool to torment your guests with lil' nibbles. >:) A "Bling Thing" calculator with rhinestone buttons offering a new definition for "girl math." Sure, your phone has a calculator. But is it this cute? A NeeDoh Dream Drop that even comes with its own little stand to really sell the appearance of a droplet of magical goo. The mesmerizing glitter is already a treat, but you'll be in love once you feel how satisfyingly SQUISHY this is. A pair of chandelier earrings for an over-to-top, iconic look that will make everyone's eye light up when they see your earrings light up. They don't just look swanky: They're made with flexible oxidized silver and clear Czech teardrop crystals. An enormous, five-pound bag of gummy bears, because you're financially independent and can buy your own candy, Halloween be damned. Listen, I'm gonna leave a short review here, but click through and read some of the dang novel-length reviews some people are leaving. People are passionate about these gummies! Maybe it's because they're softer than other brands and have 11 (!!!) flavors. Promising review: "As a gummy fanatic for more years than I care to admit, I have tried all sorts of brands, both popular brands and generic, domestically and internationally. In terms of taste, moisture, aroma, and variety, Albanese gummy bears are unmatched. Yes, they're pricey, but if you prioritize quality over quantity, this is the purchase for you. Treat yourself to absolute quality and go for Albanese." —trev rogersGet it from Amazon for $17.76+ (available in various pack sizes and 11 flavors). A "Grievance Journal," aka a "burn book for the discerning misanthrope" for people who use complaining as their main form of communication. There are 52 prompts and "darkly funny" quotes to guide you through a thorough vent sesh. Your only complaint when you get this will be, "Why didn't I get this sooner?" A pack of merit badges for the modern adult who needs a little encouragement. Congrats on flossing — it's a big accomplishment! Promising review: "These badges are beautifully made, high quality, with vivid colors and no fraying — looked just like the pictures. Very easy to adhere. I used these to personalize my work bag, which is made out of heavy canvas. Highly recommend it, will buy more." —M SimonGet a pack of three from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in 28 sets). Mystical Flames — a cool invention that turns your boring old fire into a rainbow fire. Camping has never felt so rave-like. Just don't use these packets if you're planning on roasting food. Promising review: Mystical Fire Colorant is amazing. For a really fun experience, get some of these for your next camping trip. As if a campfire needs improvement... but this stuff is really neat. I'd say the adults love it even more than the kids. We only used one packet, and the colors were so good — it seems like they lasted at least 20 minutes. There was even color left in the ashes the next day. We will never go camping again without several packs of Mystical Fire on hand." —TeNeGet a pack of six from Amazon for $7.20+. An "ugly" custom pet pillow offering a hilariously warped version of your scrunkly companion. Just send in a photo that you think could be distorted into something perfectly meme-able. A mini Bob Ross paint-by-numbers kit that comes with three different numbered canvas designs, seven paint pots, a mini brush, and an easel to display your tiny masterpieces. It's perfect for adults and teens looking for a quick project and kids working on their fine motor skills. An infectious disease coloring book oozing with hours of gross relaxation. This purchase is nothing to sneeze at. A ransom note sticker book so you can spend less time cutting up old magazines and more time sending threatening letters. With fewer magazines in print these days, it's getting harder to kidnap people the right way. A Grim Steeper silicone tea infuser that doubles as a useful reminder to people not to bother you until you're done with your morning cuppa. Nostalgic bath pearls for anyone who misses taking a truly fun bath. Throw a couple into your tub, put on "Candy" by Mandy Moore, and recapture some '90s magic. A set of cowboy straw toppers that add a little "don't mess with Texas" vibe to your water bottle by protecting the drinking straw from strangers bumping into it. Look how cute this bottle looks with a lil' hat on! It thinks it's people. :') A Lego cherry blossom kit for decor you can build yourself. The 430-piece set comes with everything you need to build two stems, and at less than $15, it's a steal compared to most Lego kits. A Skin1004 Zombie Pack to bring your skin back to life in a good, non-horror movie way. The mask tightens as it dries, creating a fun undead look (just like the more expensive Hanacure). When you wash it off, you might be pleasantly surprised to see bouncier, more hydrated skin. A teeny-tiny board game (like Operation, Connect 4, and Hungry Hungry Hippos) with working pieces for the competitive mouse in your life. A pack of six giant catnip joints so you can get high with your cat. That's everyone's dream, right? The "Meowijuana" is made of catnip rolled in Raw rolling papers. Instead of smoking it, your cat can bat it around. A mini desktop dog park because dog parks are the best places on earth so having one nearby could only help. A "Gracula" garlic crusher that ironically helps you with one of the most tedious chores in the kitchen. Just throw in the peeled cloves, twist, and feel grateful you Let the Right One your kitchen. An unbelievably cute tomato lamp so you can bathe your home in a saucy red glow. Reviewers say it's just as cute as the more expensive one you might've seen on Urban.

An enamel pin shaped like a stamp from a magical realm. You may never get the opportunity to visit Emerald City or Hyrule, but you can dress like a letter that's been posted from there!

51 Gifts For Your BFF That Shout 'I Care About You"
A copy of The Book of Myself: A Do-It-Yourself Autobiography in 201 Questions if they've ever told you, "I should write a book one day," but have no clue where to start. This gives them fun prompts to write and reflect on the past, present, and future! A set of book-shaped sponges so their love of literature can make the task of washing dirty dishes just a little bit less miserable. Food residue, better read it and weep! A rotating disco ball diffuser that blends your BFF's two personalities of wellness and "Wanna go out tonight?" into one cute little home decor item. They can put in their fave essential oil and choose what color they want (it has various light settings and four mist functions) for whatever vibe they're feeling. A cold brew coffee maker so they can fuel up with a refreshing caffeinated drink while saving time *and* money in place of those all-too-frequent Starbucks trips.

This flameless, windproof lighter makes lighting candles safer and easier — no more worrying about singed fingers.

A buildable Lego cherry blossom that they can enjoy building with a friend (aka, you) or just on their own. Seriously, whoever thought of these just gets how much we all loved Legos as kids and ingeniously combined it with our love of flowers (minus the usual upkeep of real flowers, phew, thank god). A pair of "floating" air conduction headphones if they tend to sweat in places that they didn't even know they could sweat (in this case, it's the ears). These sit right over the ears, so they can still enjoy their tunes without always having to readjust their buds every 0.2 miles. And these help them be more aware of their surroundings, unlike other in-ear earbuds. A shaker of Thin Mint seasoning because everyone's favorite Girl Scout cookie deserves to be enjoyed year-round, IMO. I mean, Thin Mint coffee, Thin Mint brownies, and Thin Mint ice cream?

A mug-shaped ice cream maker — just freeze the single-serve mugs overnight, chill the ingredients for two hours beforehand, and with the press of a button, they'll have delicious, creamy goodness in minutes! This reviewer loves that it's super quiet, which is a constant complaint for those who have the Ninja Creami. A two-slice touchscreen toaster featuring seven touch-activated browning settings so they won't burn their morning fuel. Not only will they want to keep this on their countertop because it's so beautiful, but this toaster also has a clever crumb tray to help avoid messes and options for other things like bagels, English muffins, and waffles. A set of cat-themed tarot cards that comes with a guidebook, making it a perfect beginner-fuurriendly way for your bestie to dip their toe into tarot. I'm getting a sense that these need to be added to your cart immediately! A ring holder necklace so they can keep their beloved ring close to their heart (literally and figuratively).

It's designed to work with their existing charger and adds a playful vibe to any nightstand, because who says tech can't be cute? A miniature book hair clip so unique and gorgeous that they'll want to burst out into a poetic song about how lovely it is. Their love for literature runs deep, like deep enough that they'll wear this more than once a week. A heated eye massager to help relieve stress and let them listen to their favorite playlist while they rest, thanks to the five different massage modes and built-in Bluetooth speakers.

With the many compartments, they can keep all those Hudson News snacks, water, and their phone all in a secure spot without having to annoy their seatmates when they get up for the fifth time to get something from the overhead bin. A "huggable" squishy gummy bear night-light if your BFF wants to spice up their room decor with something that is bear-y cute.

Reviewers say it's super plush and you can use it as a body pillow, a napping pillow, or just as a fun piece of decor. A guided visual "breathing partner" since your friend needs a little mindfulness to get through the day or help them fall asleep at night. It'll guide them through calming breathing exercises and hopefully help them feel a little less stressed and more relaxed, thanks to the soothing changing colors. A little popcorn bucket vase for adding a fun *pop* of color to their coffee table or nightstand. Bonus points if you bring them flowers already in it when you gift it to them!
