    32 Things That Might Make You Think "Well, There Goes My Money"

    Including a delicious syrup for iced coffee *and* a book of poems by Lana Del Rey.

    1. A large bottle of Torani brown sugar cinnamon syrup reviewers swear makes a dupe of the overpriced bevvies you'd purchase from that *ahem* not-to-be-named coffee chain. The logo is dark green. There's a mermaid.

    2. A Supergoop SPF 40 "glowscreen" to keep the "not-reapplying-sunscreen" excuses to zilch. This teeny BB contains hyaluronic acid, vitamin B5, and niacinamide for an immediate glowy sheen and light coverage.

    3. A copy of Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass that's a book of poems written by the one, the only, Lana Del Rey. If Born To Die has been your entire personality since 2012, you'll appreciate this equally moody and moving prose.

    the book

    4. A high-waisted midi skirt you simply need to pair with a white tank and ~poof~ — you've got the perfect recipe for an outfit that looks put-together but took merely a second to muster up.

    5. A pigmented vegan palette with four eyeshadows *and* a blush, that is the ideal all-in-one for fancy occasions — especially those that call for tiny clutches with no space. Wedding accessories = the bane of my existence.

    6. A large travel wallet because there is NOTHING WORSE than losing a connecting boarding pass while on a plane. Is it underneath your seat? In the carry-on you stored in the overhead compartment? DID YOU DROP IT EN ROUTE TO THE PLANE? I don't know, I'm tired — just get this and save yourself the potential headache.

    7. A smocked midi that I've already romanticized and added to my cart. Who's going to make green juice, plant flowers, and visit a local market while wearing the below this weekend? Me. In my head, at least.

    8. An acupressure and pillow mat set for a spa experience that doesn't require *actually* going to a spa. You can naturally reduce muscle tension and back pain (the kind you get from, well, sitting at a computer all day) by simply laying on the mat daily for 10–30 minutes.

    9. A CeraVe retinol serum which recognizes that acne doesn't stop at breakouts; the scars they leave behind are equally as frustrating. This affordable product is gentle enough for sensitive skin (retinol = some pretty powerful stuff), but remains effective at evening out discoloration. Honestly? All hail.

    10. A high shine lip gloss that provides mega pigment for a professional finishing touch that would ~shine~ on any red carpet premiere. It's even got a light vanilla scent, has shea butter for moisture, *and* isn't sticky. No more panicking with every gust of wind.

    11. A durable tumbler bottle that I own and have dubbed my "emotional support tumbler." Not sure what to say in that Zoom meeting? Take a sip of water and/or iced coffee. Hydrating and caffeinating your awkwardness has never gone hand-in-hand so fluidly.

    12. A strapless romper that's ideal for any and all warm weather activities, ergo you can finally banish this question from your lips forever: but what will I wear?

    13. A pair of memory foam armrest pads for an instant upgrade to the desk chair you've had since — *checks calendar* — eighth grade. These relieve elbow pressure and provide a comfy space for the virtual meeting that absolutely and without a doubt, could have been condensed into an email.

    14. A pack of insect traps for your plants, aka the likely culprits behind the flies, gnats, and various insects that very much showed up to your house without an invitation. Attach each sticky strip onto an included stake, stick 'em in your plant, and that's it! Just remove the trap when it's full of insects. Yum.

    15. A bag of Japanese Daifuku Mochi, which reviewers swear are sold at the Japan Pavilion in Epcot. These are sure to give your taste buds the thrill of their l-i-f-e: This particular kind has cream and strawberry jam filling, plus a light sprinkling of powdered sugar.

    16. An overnight lip mask that repairs your pout whilst you snooze. Its mango butter, cocoa butter, coconut oil, and jojoba oil blend will have you humming "Miracles Happen" from that iconic princess movie when you no longer wake up with painful dryness.

    the lip balms

    17. A graphic top for folks who love the simplicity of pairing a tee with some high-waisted denim, but want to look bolder. Presenting: The graphic T-shirt below. It's got a certain je ne sais quoi, no?

    18. A Chefman compact air fryer for making all of those decadent comfort foods you've scrolled past — we're talking everything from wings and glazed donuts to charred Brussels sprouts and sesame chicken — *without* having to use hot oil or an oven. It's even great for crisping up leftovers and meal prepping!

    19. A soap pump dispenser that I have one word for: brilliant. Doing dishes in a cluttered kitchen with limited counter space is both my nightmare and reality, so this convenient gizmo (where you can squeeze soap directly onto a sponge with one hand) literally made my heart go pitter-patter when I saw it.

    20. A PanOxyl acne foaming face wash to screech "get out" to pesky pimples thanks to a hefty helping of benzoyl peroxide (a whopping 10%, to be exact). Consider acne as good as gone when placing this maximum strength formula in your medicine cabinet.

    21. A set of mini makeup blending sponges that I refer to in *my* personal dictionary as munchkin-sized. Touching up and blending out concealer on nights out will be a breeze via the below.

    22. A galaxy projector if you, like me, are a 26-year-old adult with a perpetual fear of the dark. Consider this an easy way to hide the fact that your cousins made you watch The Exorcist at the ripe age of five and you haven't been the same ever since — "It's for the aesthetics," you'll say.

    23. An anti-theft travel money belt that's currently moonlighting as a fashion accessory to help hold up your mid-rise jeans when, in fact, it also functions as a purse. This is actually equipped with a "secret" wallet for storing valuables whilst walking through a new city.

    the belt

    24. A copy of The Antiquarian Sticker Book that's rightfully described by one reviewer as "mysterious and ooky." This features 1,000+ Victorian-inspired stickers that will make you feel as if you're flipping through a creepy carnival book — but like, in the best way possible.

    the book

    25. A set of Wad-Free pads because raise your hand if you've pulled out a set of sheets from your dryer to realize that, ah yes, about 10 pairs of damp socks were trapped inside. These promise wrinkle-free, fully dry bedding that doesn't emerge a tangled mess.

    26. A Wi-Fi extender because your bedroom is inexplicably an internet dead zone and holding your laptop up in the air [cue every scary movie scene in which someone's car breaks down and they're stranded in the middle of nowhere] won't cut it. This strengthens Wi-Fi connection throughout your entire home to ensure you don't freeze mid-Zoom call.

    27. A set of claw clips because it's about time we bid adieu to the damaging hair ties of updo's past and embrace the tool that TikTok has been telling me to buy for the last 13 months. These securely hold back your mane without tugging or pulling, meaning breakage and headaches = no longer an issue.

    28. A pair of tried-and-true Birkenstocks, because your feet deserve nothing but the best comfort and support footwear can offer — and these deliver. Don't knock the Birks until you've tried them, folks.

    29. A faux croc leather purse if you'd like to house your cell, wallet, and lip balm in an accessory best described as art. Consider my career trajectory shifted: When I grow up, I'd like to be as chic as this bag.

    30. A set of BPA-free toothbrush covers if you've gotten into the habit of flinging your toothbrush into your foundation-covered makeup bag and calling it a day. When you think about it: ew. This tiny gadget keeps grime off the bristles that are intended to disinfect your mouth.

    31. A compact wall mount if 90% of bedroom clutter can be attributed to simply not having a large enough closet (a heartache I truly understand). This collapsible tool turns empty wall space into extra storage, freeing up your floor and "the chair" from being bombarded with clothing.

    32. A jetted tub cleaner with results so fantastic, they'll both satisfy and concern you: This lures out all the hidden grime lurking in your tub, aka the kind that was absolutely present when you took that last "relaxing" bath.
