1. A task planning, to-do list, daily calendar, productivity organizer, and meal planner notepad that'll keep you on top of your life.
Bliss Collection is a family-owned and -operated business available on Amazon Handmade.
Promising review: "As an engineer, I have to multitask all the time to keep up with aggressive timelines. I stumbled upon this product and it has everything I need. It reminds me to prioritize the most important tasks, keep track of meetings and appointments, notes for before the meeting, water intake, reminds me to take a break and get up from my desk to grab a snack, lunch, breakfast. Additionally, in this global pandemic I really like how this product is owned by a small business and it is such a beautiful, well thought out product. I am really happy with my purchase and will be a continued customer. I have showed this product even to my team members at work and they appreciate it too!" —Fatema Aftab

2. A slim and waterproof fitness tracker designed to be a watch, pedometer, and a calorie and sleep monitor — plus it might just be the reminder you need to get up and go out.
Promising review: "It’s a very cute watch. The size is perfect if you don’t like big watches, now I can be more aware about my active energy, see how many miles I run or walk and also get notifications of my messages. It’s very useful, the app is easy to use and you can see everything. The battery is good, I need to charge the watch every two or three day. It’s awesome." —Mafe Mora
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in six colors).
3. A pack of Neuro Gum energy and focus tablets filled with nootropic caffeine, L-theanine, and B vitamins to help get you going without any jitters or that dreaded afternoon crash.
Promising review: “As a medical student this has been an amazing addition to my daily study regimen. Same amazing boost as the Diet Coke and coffee I used to chug, but without the jitters, crash/headache, or teeth staining. It's become my new go-to for staying awake and alert in the OR or on the wards. Highly recommend for anyone who needs a pick-me-up but doesn't want that 'wired' sensation you get from coffee.” —R. Sardesai
Get it from Amazon for $21+ (available in two packs of six and 12 and in two flavors).
4. A bottle of Drop It Wine Drops — it naturally reduces sulfites and tannins in wine which are what can lead to those horrible headaches. Just put a few drops into your glass and it gets to work in just about 20 seconds.
Promising review: "I almost never get away without a headache after a glass of wine, even white. I like wine so that stinks. BUT, I decided this wasn’t awfully expensive to experiment with, and I’m glad I did. It really does work. For ME, if it’s a really dense red wine I need at least five drops or I might feel a twinge. That’s an acceptable return on investment!" —Yolanda Collard
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
5. A sturdy laptop sticker that'll let everyone know who you run with on these streets.
Candy's Kloset is an Los Angeles-based, Latinx-owned Etsy shop filled with so many cute, adorable, hilarious, and just plain perfect things. This is one of my favorite Etsy shops, hands down.
Get it from Candy's Kloset on Etsy for $4.
6. A pack of adhesive cable clips that'll finally detangle all your cords while making sure that they're easily accessible — I dunno why but the bird's nest of cords in my "home office" caused me so much stress. These def helped.
Promising review: "It was always a pain to reach down the side of my bed to reach my chargers, not to mention the wad of cables I’d have to sift through just to charge my phone. I finally searched for a solution and came across these. They’re great! They’re really easy to stick on and they stay in place. I haven’t had an issue of them falling off. Whenever I need to charge a device they’re right next to me, easy to reach and untangled. I definitely recommend!" —Nelis Perez
Get a pack of six from Amazon for $6.96.
7. A super-genius luggage-mounted cup caddy that slides right onto the handle so you always have a place to put your coffee when you're carrying a million other things.
Promising review: "This cup holder is perfect! It helps me a lot! Last time I took a plane with a suitcase and a cup of coffee, I dropped and spilled my drink everywhere when it was my turn to check my passport and ticket. It was a nightmare! This time, I bought this cup holder to do me a favor! I don't have to worry about where my cup and phone are! I can free my hands to do other things. I love it so much! Hope you love it too." —Philip
Get it from Amazon for $11.89+ (available in eight colors).
8. A set of Washer and Dryer Bed Sheet Detanglers so you can finally get your bedding clean without creating a giant knot of fabric that's still a little dirty, wet, and totally wrinkly.
Promising review: "Wow!!! You wonder if things like this really work — well, I can absolutely confirm they do! I was impressed that the package came with two of the devices, I was only expecting one, so there was one for the fitted sheet and the flat sheet. I tried it out and my sheets and not only did they NOT wad up, they came out of the dryer feeling fresher, feeling drier, and unwrinkled! I will be buying a set of these for each of my immediate family members and close friends!" —katy
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $18.99.
9. A bottle of The Laundress Crease Release, a classic scented, wrinkle release spray that'll save you countless hours of having to iron your shirts, suits, curtains, and basically everything else.
Promising review: "I got a bottle of this in one of those subscription boxes and kinda rolled my eyes — but I use it almost every single day! I have very, very limited closet space, so some clothes that should be hung end up getting folded, and, let's be honest, most of the time I don't even bother to fold. I'm very busy — a mom, a business owner, and I'm going back to school to be a nurse. So I don't have time to steam my clothes or fold them properly. This is incredible and saves a lot of time. I found it works the best if I spritz a little and then pull out the wrinkles. Smells fantastic and it's def my go-to." —Laura Maturo
Get it from Amazon for $17.
10. A smooth mulberry silk eye mask complete with a gel bead insert that can be stored in the fridge and then used to give you that cooling feeling your hot sleeps need.
Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for. The silk fabric is very soft and smooth, the strap is adjustable and comfortable to wear. This mask blocks all the light from the TV or a tablet, and about 95% of brighter light from lamps or the sun. And the cold pack is fantastic, worn alone or when placed inside the sleep mask, it's a tremendous help for headaches and hot flashes. You can't beat it for the price." —Heather Harding
Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in seven designs).
11. A guided Self-Care Check-In book filled with research-based techniques and prompts to help you manage stress, nurture your values and goals, and take steps toward concrete change.
Promising review: "While self-care has become a buzzword these days, Self-Care Check-In is a practice. I started with the first exercise where I encountered a very rich journaling experience. The Reflection revealed my humility. Focus was simply a garden of blooming connections that I was able to name one by one in the Do exercise. GG Renee Hill’s book is a gift to the world that can spark some of the greatest conversations that you will have with yourself." —Faye
Get it from Amazon for $10.69.
12. A compact, waterproof coffee mug warmer with three heat settings and an auto shutoff feature — so you never have to worry about that forgotten cup of coffee on your desk that gets ice cold before you finally have a chance to drink it.
Promising review: "One of those items I didn’t know I needed until I had it. As a busy mom of two little ones, I can’t even remember the last time I got to finish a hot cup of coffee. Until now! This truly kept my coffee warm for literal hours. And I love the wood grain look of it. It’s nice and doesn’t look cheap at all. I’m going to keep it on my desk for when I’m working, and I’ll never go without hot coffee again!" —ADR80
Get it from Amazon for $23.29+ (available in seven colors).
13. A pack of transparent sticky notes so you can take and leave notes but still see the text and background they're surrounding.
Promising review: "These are amazing! We use them for so many things! For positive messages and romantic nights, they are amazing for leaving around the house! You can also stick them to paper and restick the same ones over and over again! They seem to never lose their adhesion! Everyone I’ve shown these to fall in love with them!" —Faith
Get a pack of 10, 50 sheet pads from Amazon for $10.98+ (available in seven sizes).
14. A pack of light-dimming stickers designed specifically to cover those constant blinking LED lights that brighten your room.
Promising review: "This is the best thing you never knew you needed. I own a digital clock with the numbers displayed in red LED light, and every night I've blocked the light with a cover so it doesn't shine in my eyes as I sleep. Silly I know, but I like my room pitch black and cave-like. On a whim, I bought this product. OH MY GOD! Game-changer!! For the first night EVER I didn't have to cover the clock display before I went to bed!! I had no idea how big a difference this little dimmer could make, but I'm more than pleased with the result. I can still see the time display just fine, but now my room is a happy cave! Some commenters argue you could get the same effect using electrical tape, regular tape covered in Sharpie, etc, but true to the name of these products if you're looking for something to DIM, then this is for you. Also, the product is easy to remove and doesn't leave a sticky residue at all, which can't be said for most tapes. I did notice a slight lag in response when I covered my TV LED sensor, so if you're trying to block something that actually senses inputs I would maybe not suggest this. Other than that, excellent product!" —Amazon Customer
Get a sheet of over 100 dimming stickers (in multiple sizes and shapes) from Amazon for $6.49.
15. A roll-on Migrastil Migraine Stick made with a combination of essential oils that can help soothe away the pains and symptoms caused by headaches — everyday, annoying headaches that literally everyone causes you.
Promising review: "If you suffer from any type of headache, BUY THIS. It is totally worth the money. It lessens the pain and leaves you with the ability to think/process. For me, that is the most difficult to deal with, as I often have to power through a migraine while I am either teaching high school English or corralling a 4-year-old and an 18-month-old. This will take away the nausea and the throbbing, but you do still feel out of sorts. Better than the full migraine though, so go for it!" —Scout
Get it from Amazon for $11.99.
16. A comfortable, adjustable, and easy-to-use posture corrector designed to help with your back's alignment and stability. In time, it develops your back's muscle memory which will then hold your back straight even without it. It's also discreet enough to wear under your shirt or blouse.
Promising review: "We got this since we’re both working from home full time during the pandemic and it’s clearly having a negative impact on our posture that our home office is now extended to the deck and our sofa! This thing is about as comfortable as it can be for what it’s doing, we wear it for about an hour a day each and it has absolutely improved back pain and posture. It came with extra Velcro pieces to extend for those with larger shoulders, which is a nice touch. This is a good, quick investment for those of us who have a hard time buying a $300+ ergonomic chair for a home office!" —emthehuman
Get it from Amazon for $16.97.
17. A 144 page, A-Z tabbed password journal so you can have all your log-in information in one secure place — just make sure it's in a secure place.
Promising review: "We all respect internet privacy. But what happens if you die? Simple issues like your Netflix account become huge stumbling blocks to your survivors. Keep a record of your passwords. Maybe you're young and don't think about ever passing away? Need to get on Facebook after two years silence, pay your cable bill, bank checking account password...last year's Turbo Tax, etc. Who can remember all those passwords? Yeah, I wrote it on that back of that envelope...'Honey, where's that envelope?' STOP!!! THIS is where you will record your user names and passwords. Do yourself and loved ones a big favor and purchase this book." —David D.
Get it from Amazon for $7.67.
18. A pack of very handy LokiStashed Velvet Hair Tie Scrunchies designed with a hidden zipper pocket so you can store your keys, money...any of the small things.
Promising review: "I love this idea! These scrunchies are very convenient when I go to the gym since I hate carrying around my keys and lip balm. The colors are fun and the band that is used is great for thick hair! The scrunchies stretch very well and hold my hair without falling off. I am very satisfied with the product and I would recommend!" —Ossiris Acevedo
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $11.99 (available in two sets).
19. An absolutely perfect scrunchie holder to finally have a place to store your ever-growing collection of hair accessories. It has places to store your scrunchies AND hair ties and bobby pins.
Get it from Creative Encompass on Etsy for $12.97.
20. An estate planning journal that lets you get all your affairs in order in the event of...well, you know...so they don't have to worry about it.
This is not a legal will but it is designed to help you get organized so you can make one and it helps to spell out everything that your loved ones might wonder in the event of your...you know.
Promising review: "Don’t let the title throw you (you can order the same material with a 'softer' title if you want, but why?), this book allows you to enter the information that your loved ones will need when you’re gone...and save them so much trouble at a time when they have enough grief to deal with. As an estate planning attorney, I recommend these books to ALL my clients. And remind them to keep the info up to date...to save the ones you love time, anguish, and money." —PJ
Get it from Amazon for $13.08.
21. An adjustable, bamboo laptop desk designed to angle in five positions, adjust to two heights, and with a drawer so you can store stuff.
Promising review: "This portable and ultra-light desk is wonderfully made and super sturdy with adjustable legs for preferred height. Bring it from the couch to the bed. Perfect for breakfast in bed or working from home, especially during these tough times!" —Karen
Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in three styles).
22. A dishwasher-safe airtight cold-brew maker that'll give you a nice pick-me-up right out of your fridge.
Includes a detachable infuser, lid, and pitcher. BPA-free and dishwasher-safe.
Promising review: "I received my first Takeya cold-brew maker as a gift for Christmas. I like it so much I bought another. It's easy to use and very easy to clean, plus it makes my morning coffee more palatable. It was well-packaged, has easy-to-follow instructions, and will get lots of use at my house. One of the best features is that it can be turned upside down with no leakage." —J. Lloyd
Get it from Amazon for $24.98+ (available in two sizes and three colors). And don't forget the coffee!
23. An amazing little Squatty Potty that'll position you in a way that makes your poop pass through more comfortably!
Promising review: "I've struggled with the #2 for the last couple years. I've gone from Defecating Toxic Avenger to 'Dear GOD! I feel like I'm passing the Twin King Guardian Statues'. It's been a sphincter nightmare. No matter what I tried: prunes, more water, high fiber, Taco Bell, even White Castle — nothing was working. Usually, in a three-week interval, I'd get very sick and spend three to four hours going to the bathroom nine or 10 times. After my sphincter would be tender and I'm damn near positive if this had gone on, it would be the end of me. Then I saw this. I decided to go ahead and plunk down the $25. By day two of using it, I started to feel better and my cramps were gone. I swear to god, when I go on my next road trip, I'm taking the damn thing with me, and IDGAF if my friends laugh at me. This damn thing may have saved my health and possibly my life." —DJ_Malsidious
"This would have saved Elvis’s life!! If Elvis had a Squatty Potty he would be with us today." —UTGrad
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
24. A 52-week gratitude journal filled with prompts and space to write out everything you're thankful for — what better way to start your day!
Promising reviews: "Just started using this journal after being in a bit of a funk at the start of this year. I researched so many different journals but this was the only one that I felt was simple, didn't make too many 'demands' on my time, was straightforward, and was exactly what I was looking for. It's a simple concept and I've only been doing it for a week but I find myself looking for things to be thankful for, find myself adding lines below the three provided and writing in the margins...all because I want to!" —silkeymilkey
Get it from Amazon for $6.99.
25. A set of AirPods ear hooks to help you keep them in place even if you're out on these streets getting wild — and by wild, I mean jogging.
Promising review: "When I got my AirPod Pros I was extremely excited and wanted to try them immediately by going to the gym. I ran into an issue while running on a treadmill that the earbuds kept sliding out of my ear and I would constantly have to re-adjust them so they wouldn’t fall out. So I went into the web to find a solution. At first, when I saw these I was very concerned about how well these would work or if they would work at all. When I received them I tried them out by doing the same exercises that I did before and it never slipped. So if you are looking for that one solution for the AirPod Pros I would definitely snatch these up." —Jessica Jones
Get it from Amazon for $10.49.
26. A pair of anti-chafing bands that'll protect your perfect thighs from starting any fires under your favorite dress.
Promising review: "These things saved my legs on vacation. We took a trip to Disney, and the first day we were there I just wore shorts, like normal (without these). By the end of the day, my legs were already chafing and in pain. I wore these all day the second day and no pain. They are super comfy and super cute. I thought the lace would irritate my chafing more, but it did not at all. We were super sweaty for long periods of time, and these held up. They did not roll or slide on me at all, stayed in place the WHOLE time. I would 100% recommend these and have told all my friends about these things. You won't regret it!" —Jessica
Get them from Amazon for $18.95+ (available in sizes S-3XL and in 17 styles).
27. A pack of sturdy file folders to not only hold your stuff but also speak your truths.
Promising review: "I bought these for my desk. They're witty and cute. Aesthetically they work perfectly with my notebooks and office vibe. They make me laugh and feel appropriate for starting my own business. I'll definitely be buying more for myself and to gift." —Mouse
Get a set of nine from Amazon for $12.99.
28. A Bambüsi bathtub caddy that'll basically let you stay in the tub until you're all pruney.
Promising review: "Listen, just buy it. It’s totally worth it! I received this as a gift from my hubby and I love it! It’s sturdy and larger enough for my garden tub. The line glass holder can be tricky if the trim is thick. I wish the 'iPad' holding spot would hold an old-fashioned book. It doesn’t lean back enough to secure a book." —Keia S
Get it from Amazon for $33.25 (available in three finishes).
29. A 3D printed personalized charger cable name tag that'll end all the fights in your house over who stole whose charger.
Delightful Luna is a Stedman, North Carolina-based Etsy shop specializing in 3D printed things.
Get it from Delightful Luna on Etsy for $5.50 (available in 16 colors and for iPhones and Androids).
30. A convenient pack of daily face masks to help keep your skin hydrated, fresh, and happy. They're made using an avocado fruit extract and peptide that's gentle on sensitive skin while providing some serious moisture.
Promising review: "I love nothing more than to wash my face before bedtime, put one of these bad boys on while I am doing other bedtime routines, and then peel it off right before bed. There is something about the slightly cool temperature of these, the thin material, and the ingredients. It just makes my face feel so moisturized and the next morning, I can ALWAYS see a difference in overall appearance. I absolutely love this brand and think the entire product is quality (even the packaging that it comes in). If you have been wanting to try sheet masks, go for these!!!" —A.L
Get a pack of 14 sheets from Amazon for $15 (available in two options).
31. An adorable magnetic AirPod holder that's just purrrfect for making sure you never lose one of them.
Promising review: "One of the most useless things I’ve ever bought and I have ZERO REGRETS. This serves no purpose other than to bring joy and happiness to all." —Kayla Marie
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in white or black).
32. A set of super comfy arthritis hand compression gloves, breathable and moisture-wicking fingerless gloves designed to help alleviate rheumatoid pains and ease muscle tension.
Promising review: "Wonderful compression gloves. Good support and fit. Nice that fingertips are exposed for better typing and phone ease. My hands don't get hot or sweaty during use. As I was getting used to them my fingertips felt throbby, but just taking a break and wiggling the fingers now and then helped. The gloves are not only good for typing work. I occasionally use them for driving and just for relief. Whatever helps. And they do. Make sure you measure correctly so you get the right size for your relief. The gloves do work." —P. Mouse
Get it from Amazon for $12.97 (available in three sizes).
33. A clever and reusable clean ball that will pick up the dust and crumbs that accumulate at the bottom of your bag. It's designed with an inner sticky ball that rolls around in your bag and picks up all the dirt, dust, and crumbs. Once it's filled with crumbs just take the sticky ball out of its cage and rinse with water.
34. A handy to-do list notepad to have you checking things off like bom, bom.
Ex Voto Design is an East Los Angeles-based Etsy shop filled with Chicana-powered art, stationery, and generally wonderful chingaderas and gifts.
Get it from Ex Voto Design on Etsy for $12 (also available in a notepad and sticky notes or as a set).
35. A magnetic charging cord to keep all your dangling wires tangle-free when you're not using them.
Promising review: "This cord is good for my car. I like the way it winds up so I can put it away in my console when I don't need it. The other cords I had in the car never wound up properly and would stick out, making my car look messy. The magnetic strips are a HUGE plus. I am going to order more of these for the other members in my family." —Honest4
Get it from Amazon for $11.98+ (available in two lengths).
