1. A strapless knit topΒ that looks equally as good on its own as it does with a cardigan over it. The knit fabric and neutral colors still give the outfit a fall vibe, even if the weather hasn't entirely picked up on the fact that the seasons are changing.
Promising review: "This a staple for the summer, fall, and spring!! I love this top. The material is thick, so you can go braless if you want! I love the fit and the knot in the front. I want it in every color!!!" βAmanda Musumeci
Get it from Amazon for $19.99Β (available in women's sizes XSβXL and 21 colors).

Get it from Natural Anni Essential on Etsy for $19.Β
3. AΒ sun milkΒ about to be your new BFF because it's basically the only thing you need to apply to your face first because it acts as a sunscreen *and* primer. It also works to help even your skin tone and create a smooth base for makeup. Plus, it has a double-layer UV-blocking system that can last through sweat and water. WOW!
In the photos above, the reviewer shows their skin before applying, after applying, and then with a layer of makeup on top.
Promising review: "For me, this goes on almost like a primer, which I really like when I have to apply makeup to my already oily skin during the hot, humid Texas summers. I can reapply later on top of what's already on my face, and it still looks and feels matte and slightly moisturized with the sun protection I want." βchristine
Get it from Amazon forΒ $17.30.
4. A set of silicone trivetsΒ you can use to protect your table from hot pots and pans after you cook a fabulous dinner. Plus, you won't mind leaving them sitting out even after you're done eating.

5. A lace layering shirtΒ capable of transforming a simple look into something super fun and interesting β just by wearing it under a graphic tee. This is a great way to get in the fall spirit, even if you live in a warm climate.
Promising review: "I love this shirt so much β comfy and looks absolutely adorable, can wear under shirts and dresses or with a tank top underneath. I got my regular shirt, and I love the fit. A little delicate, but thatβs to be expected. I bought it in another color β thatβs how much I love it." βDEANNA

Brighttia is a New Yorkβbased small business established in 2018 that specializes in industrial and modern interior lighting and decor!
Promising review: "These brass cable organizers are beautiful and high quality. Iβm using two of them to keep a plug-in sconce cord attached to the wall and to direct the cord to the electrical outlet. These little gold pieces add a touch of functionality and glamour to the sconces. Exactly what I was looking for." βEtsy reviewer
Get a set of two from Brighttia on Etsy for $11.98Β (available in eight colors).

Promising review: "Super cute baseball cap for fall. I did put a rounded towel into it for two days to fully fill out a fold from where it was hanging. Soft material. I see myself wearing this a lot this fall/winter. No regrets." βanonymous
Get it from Old Navy for $10 (originally $19.99; available in four colors).Β
10. A teeth-whitening pen because you can only call them your "pearly whites" if they're actually white... This pen will be a simple way to help remove discoloration. Each one can be used around 20 times and can lighten your teeth four to eight shades with consecutive use for a fraction of the cost ofΒ fan-favorite Crest Whitestrips.Β
Promising reviews:Β "Throw your expensive Crest Whitestrips away!Β Being the son of a dental hygienist, clean bright white teeth have always been important to me. Though I had my reservations about the whitening pen, it certainly didn't disappoint and works far better than the Whitestrips I've been using for the last several years, not to mention it's a much better deal for your money. I'm a total coffee connoisseur, which has always made having a bright white smile all the more challenging, but the Pen is giving me the upper hand." βFranknsd
"We like these better than Crest Whitestrips and for a fraction of the price!Β The Crest Whitestrips make my teeth way too sensitive, these work JUST AS WELL and no tooth sensitivity." βTravis Sheveland
Get a two-pack from Amazon forΒ $18.95.
11. AΒ retro radio tissue holderΒ because who knew that you could transform one of the most boring things in your home into something so precious and cute?!? I sure did not. But now I need to go add this to my cart asap.
Just an FYI β it's compatible with tissues that are in a small cube box or tissues on their own. It doesn't fit a full-size box.

Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in three colors).Β
12. An asymmetrical ruched satin skirtΒ that looks so much more expensive than the price. No matter if you wear this out with friends or to an event paired with a jacket, you'll feel like a million bucks.Β
13. A spoon holderΒ that'll ~stick~ with you long after Halloween is over because once you use it to hold your spoon with ~witchcraft~, you'll never want to go back. Get you ~potions~ ready because this witch is ready to go.
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and just had to get it. It arrived very fast and looks adorable! I have a gas stove with grates, so there is no room for a spoon rest. This takes care of that hassle!" βA Power Mama
Get it from Amazon for $11.95.
14. A trio of hydrating lip sleeping masksΒ resembling the Laneige lip mask you may have seen a million TikToks about. You can either use them all yourself or even split them up between friends so you can all have soft and moisturized lips.
Promising review: "This is the most moisturizing lip treatment in the market. When my lips started getting dry I was thinking of buying the Laneige lip mask, but itβs soooo expensive. This is a fraction of the cost and feels just the same. Very good product." βRiya
Get it from Amazon for $9.90 (available in four combos).Β
15. AΒ foot peelΒ reviewers love for helping with calluses and cracked skin. All you have to do is leave the bootie-shaped masks on your feet for an hour and then wash your feet. Over the next 7β14 days, the dead skin will peel off, leaving your feet feeling brand new.
Promising review: "I was more than a little skeptical when I bought these as I have tried similar products in the past. I put them on with socks overtop and slippers over that. I kept them on longer than it said because I lost track of time. About a week later, I noticed the top of my foot peeling. I actually forgot I had used this. As the days progressed, more and more dead skin sluffed off, on the top of my foot, between my toes, and even my cuticles. Before I used it, I had calluses on my big toe area so thick they were numb. Two days later, it stopped peeling and after using a pumice stone for the last bits all dead skin was gone and my thick calluses were back to normal. It really was a miracle. Highly recommend." βTowanda
Get it from Amazon for $17.69.
16. AΒ silicone popcorn maker that'll basically revolutionize the way you make popcorn for said movie night. You'll get delicious, homemade popcorn with fresh butter in a matter of minutes and won't have to keep buying the microwave bags over and over again.
I've been using a similar one for years, and I still swear by it. It's so much cheaper than buying microwave popcorn all the time, not to mention better for you. It's super easy to use and makes delicious popcorn in minutes. Plus, it's collapsible, so it won't take up a lot of room in your cabinet. You *can* use it as its own bowl, but it's usually pretty hot after coming out of the microwave, so I usually just transfer to another bowl so I don't have to wait for it to cool.
Promising review: "Absolutely amazing! I am throwing out my old popcorn maker because there is no need for it anymore. I cannot believe how easy it was to make perfect popcorn and use the same bowl to eat it out of. I've already told all of my friends to buy this!" βCindy Suy
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in 20 colors).
17. *AND* someΒ popcorn saltΒ to transformΒ your microwave popcorn into the delicious creation that attacks your nostrils as soon as you step into a movie theater.Β With so many movies hitting streaming services now, this is a great way to recreate the theater-going experience without leaving your home.
Promising review: "I am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn (I have no self control). This has by far been my favorite 'TikTok made me buy' item. My at-home popcorn is now my favorite thing to make, and I don't need to go the theater for popcorn. Very much worth the purchase and this will last me such a long time." βS Martinez
Get it from Amazon for $9.60+Β (available in two sizes and four styles).
18. A corduroy cosmetic bagΒ for a ~happy~ place to store your makeup or any other essentials you want to have with you. Reviewers love the size and say it's roomy enough to fit all their makeup, even brushes.Β
19. Reusable microfiber pads specifically designed to fit your Swiffer WetJet, so you can just throw them in the wash (instead of the trash) when you're done wet or dry-mopping the floor. Reviewers confirm that these pads actually work better than the disposable ones and pick up wayyy more dirt and dust from the floor.Β
Turbo Microfiber Store is a small business creating microfiber reusable mop pads and other cleaning products.
Promising review: "Ok, so I was never skeptical about this product, but it has really WOW'd me. It works better than the traditional disposable wet and dry Swiffer pads. I think it has everything to do with the texture. I have long hair, and my bathroom gets pretty hairy, just did a quick sweep of my bathroom using this thing and it pretty much picked up everything. I also used it as a 'mop' in my entryway, and it worked very well." βatstrmn
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $17.75.

Get it from out Goodful store forΒ $14.
21. AΒ terrazzo rugΒ composed of different colors and textures to add a bit of whimsy and depth to any room you put it in.Β
Promising review: "The rug looks just like the pictures. It's pretty and a little boho. There was a bit of 'shedding' here and there but not much. I would recommend a rug pad as it does slip around on hard floors. The size is perfect for in front of my kitchen sink as it's longer than a standard mat." βJM
Get a 2x3 foot size from Amazon for $19.99.
22. An everything bagel mugΒ to start your morning off right β just pour your coffee into this, grab an actual bagel, and I can pretty much guarantee you're going to have a great day.

Get it without the plate from Redwood Stoneworks on Etsy for $18.
24. LilyAna Naturals Eye CreamΒ that contains provitamin A and B5, vitamin C Ester, vitamin E, and rosehip oil to help nourish and brighten your under-eyes. One reviewer even says it works just as well as an $80 cream!!!
Promising review: "Moisturizing and hydrating. I've tried a million eye creams, spent a fortune, and then tried this 'entry-level' to see if there really is a reason to spend four times the price. After trying this, I can say this works just as well as the $80 creams! I enjoy that it's in a pump so you're not dipping your fingers in a jar and stays fresher. A little goes a long way. Will buy again." βCollin
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.

Get it from H&M for $12.99 (available in two colors).Β
27. Maybelline's Cheek Heat gel-cream blushΒ because, yes, you've probably seen videos about Glossier's Cloud Paint circulating TikTok forever now, but spending $20 on a tube just isn't always feasible (especially in this economy). This has a water-based formula and will give you a nice touch of color on your cheeks when you apply a dot or two. And nobody will be able to tell the difference.
BuzzFeed Shopping writerΒ Emma LordΒ says: "I'm a Glossier Cloud Paint stan, so I'll continue to buy it, but I love this affordable alternative, too! It spreads on super easily and can either go on sheer or build for a bolder effect. I got the Rose FlushΒ shade and enjoy it for ~everyday wear~ since it's so easy to squirt a bit on my fingers, swirl it into my cheeks, and be on my merry way. It lasts all day and looks super natural to boot!"Β
Promising review: "This is a great, cheap alternative toΒ GlossierΒ Cloud Paint. Itβs less pigmented and blends more easily, so it looks very natural." βAmazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $5.98+Β (available in six shades).Β

Get it from Amazon for $18.99 (available in 11 colors).
30. Some Himalayan pink saltΒ that'll just make you feel so darn fancy when you use it. Forget traditional salt β this will enhance the flavors of your food so much, you may just feel like a chef when you sprinkle it on the chicken and potatoes you cooked.
