I forced my colleagues (FORCED, I TELL YA) to reveal their darkest secrets (AKA the contents of their Amazon shopping carts) to me and, well, the rest of the world. Let's not sweat the small stuff! This has been a wonderful experience and we are all much closer now.
Without further ado, here's what the lovely BuzzFeed Shopping & Products team has lurking in their Amazon shopping carts:
1. A polish remover that won't destroy your poor, defenseless, already-pretty-darn-weak nails. Dare I say, this gentle formula will actually condition and prep 'em for a fresh coat of lacquer.
2. A crewneck dress with pockets (!!!!) that will basically feel like an extension of your coziest, most beloved sweatshirt. Just pair this with some over-the-knee boots to become the epitome of ~fashun~.
3. Collapsible drawer dividers to prevent your sock and intimates drawers from morphing into junk drawers. These nifty things keeps everything separated, easy to reach, and easy on the eyes.
4. A velvet pajama set adorned with lace trim — it'll make you feel as if you live a life of luxury. Think you, but with Blair Waldorf money.
5. A rose milk body lotion that looks like it was plucked from a vintage-obsessed Pinterest board and dropped right in front of your door via Amazon.
6. A splurge-worthy leather backpack because one shoulder shouldn't be holding all the weight of whatever you're carrying around. This pretty little thing is the perfect mix of fashion + function!
7. Halloween on DVD (because yes, some us still purchase those) so you could watch this classic horror film as often as you want. Now, pass that popcorn!
8. A white pen that works to restore the grout between your tiles. Now I don't like to use the word "magic" too often, but...
9. An essential oil roll-on stick with a pretty bizarre appetite. The main thing it craves? Your migraines. This will gobble 'em up and get rid of all those annoying headaches with pleasure.
10. Suede sneakers that are the perfect midway point between your dirty old kicks and dress shoes. Casual enough for the movies, fancy enough for dinner!
11. An upright stand because your glasses are sick and tired of being flung onto your nightstand. Do you have any idea how easy it is to dirty or *gasp* scratch your lenses? Too easy, TBH.
12. A lightweight mascara to thicken and lengthen your lashes without any smudging or clumps. And another "DING DING DING, WE HAVE A WINNER!" moment? It's easy to take off and won't damage your defenseless eyelid hairs.
13. A mini travel iron you'll want to pack for your next vacation. A ton of clothes being squished into a tiny suitcase = ridiculous wrinkles. Alas, this iron is a solution.
14. A velvet cocktail dress you can easily dress up with some heels and a clutch. Or wear it with your favorite kicks! The world is your yours.
15. All-natural eye masks formulated with plant-based collagen, vitamin c, rose oil, and hyaluronic acid. Their purpose? To trick your colleagues into believing that you got that full eight hours of beauty sleep last night.
16. Peep toe sandals with a thick, juicy block heel — meaning there is a much higher chance that these won't act like uncomfortable torture devices for your feet.
17. A gorgeous midi dress that looks like a t-shirt tucked into a skirt but SURPRISE! It's not.
18. A bidet toilet attachment to reduce your use of TP. This bidet will leave you feeling clean + refreshed, and you'll be able ~two~ stop using so much damn paper!
19. An Edward Gorey puzzle with 1,000 pieces — because honestly? Piecing together this puzzle sounds like an ideal Friday night. Consider my plans CANCELLED.
